Sacred Rage: Day Retreat for Women

  • Common Ground NI 165 Cooneen Road Fivemiletown, Northern Ireland, BT75 0NJ United Kingdom (map)

Do you feel that you need to express your Rage, Anger or Grief in a safe way? Do you find yourself suppressing your emotions for fear that they are “too much?” Do you project your anger towards others through “outbursts” and regret it later? Would you like to learn how to tap into the creative power and passion by transmuting the destructive?

On this day, just before St Patrick’s Day, there will be an invitation to reflect on how the patriarchy unhealthy masculine has played out in ourselves, our lives, relationships, ancestors & the collective. How the oppression can live on in our systems, until we allow ourselves to dissolve it with love & break free from the false constructs.

“A powerful woman does not hold a position of power, she stands rooted in the power that holds her. This is a force of love that has the power to disarm.” Tara Louise Firetree

“When opened in an embodied way, anger can becomes a powerful life force of wisdom, clarity & power.” Maya Luna

Rage and Anger are greatly misunderstood and it is often discouraged from being expressed, especially for women. The fiery nature and all-consuming effect on our psyche often means that we refrain from meeting it fully in our lives. In our society and in our upbringing it is discouraged to express and it is so consuming that we learn to fear or suppress it. When we are triggered it can come out in weird ways through resentment, passive aggression, angry “outbursts” or even a fury of rage. It builds pressure in our bodies through years of suppression which can manifest itself by becoming a destructive force in our lives, relationships and mental, physical or emotional health.

When we honour our Anger and Rage, allowing it to be expressed in a safe and healthy way, this allows us to tap into the great wisdom and power that is underneath it. This can be vital for Womens health and wellbeing as it can help to relieve depression and anxiety as well as a number of physical conditions including migraines, fatigue, liver conditions, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, pre-menstrual and menopausal symptoms and more.

Through the sacred ceremonial space and connection of women in circle, we can tap in deeply into our internal mystery and connection with our bodies, ancestors and Mother Earth. Many of us carry the wounding and unprocessed anger or rage from our own lives, ancestral lineage, the collective feminine as well as Mother Earth. While screaming, punching or crying into a pillow can be healthy, it merely releases the steam out of the pressure cooker rather than getting to the bottom of it. We will use the tools of breath, sound, drumming and movement to connect to our primal nature, our feminine essence and with the root of our Rage and Grief, allowing it to move through us.

This experiential immersion will begin with a morning of preparation, meditation & sharing, followed by movement & sound in the afternoon. This is a very powerful container for you to meet with and step fully into your truth, your own power and develop a healthy relationship with your emotions. You can feel empowered to develop healthy boundaries, finding the discernment between your true “Yes” and “No” with yourself and with others. The benefits of transmuting what has been carried for so long can bring great clarity, feeling much lighter and able to embrace life more fully, with more joy and appreciation.

Preparation:

- Please bring a vegetarian/vegan food to share

- Please wear loose, comfortable clothing,

- Bring a bottle of water & a travel mug for tea

- Bring a cushion & blanket, whatever you need to be comfortable

- Please refrain from eating 45mins before the session
