Excavating the gifts that these stories have to offer us
Connecting with ourselves, the land and each other
Enjoying creativity in nature
Dancing, playing, reflecting
Going off the map into the deep magic of the imagination
The weekend will involve:
Ceremony
Discussing and exploring the power of stories
Time for personal reflection and solo practice
Space to share stories, poems and songs
Plenty of food
Games & celebration
