(more information here)

The Celtic Festival and Sabbat of Yule; the Winter Solstice; Christmas; Hanukkah; Hogmanay: whatever you celebrate at this time, in the northern hemisphere, it is the time of the longest night after which we welcome the coming of the light and the new year.  This is a time for looking inwards and for reflection.  It is a time when many animals hibernate and even those who don’t, including humans, feel their pace slow and the urgency of life seem to soften.

Sophia and GillianFeel Your Edge: an exploration of boundaries and ethics with Gillian Alexander and Sophia Frelau –
In this day Gillian and Sophia lovingly held a sacred space within which to explore who you are, what your needs and desires are, and where your boundaries lie. Those present were gently encouraged to explore the full extent of themselves and to sense into their edge and how it feels when they stayed within their boundaries and when they gently stretched them.

Development Group (five weekly sessions) with Gillian Alexander – This is a group for one’s own personal development, or rather the development of one’s Being, ie one’ entirety, which employs a unique and powerful weave of Tantra, Shamanic practice and Truth.
It was delivered in four weekly sessions through October and November, via Skype or to attend in Prestwick (more information here and here):
–  The Power of Words; The Power of Breath; The Power of Touch; The Power of Energy
And a final, webinar session, via Skype

Gillian teaches by transmission whilst also conveying a great deal of information, generally in an embodied form.  This means that you learn through experiencing and feeling the experience and so your body retains that and it’s not all left up to your mind to sort and file and retrieve the information. This is an extraordinary way to learn which is not offered from most practitioners or course facilitators.

Sacred De-Armouring with Gillian Alexander – this was a remarkable and powerful two day workshop with a difference, held on 24th and 25th August.  Throughout our lives we have experienced a miriad of different experiences.  Those which we feared or were uncertain of or which we did not value or enjoy, we resisted and stored somewhere in our body.  As a result we have many half lived experienced hidden away in our body and mind, but mainly our body.

Exploring Oedipus: mother and child, with Gillian Alexander and Tom Alexander – On Sunday 14th July 2013 – We carry the imprint of our relationships with our mothers and our fathers into our relationships as adults. And we carry the transition from our mother’s ‘Little Darling’ into adult man or ‘Daddy’s Little Girl’ into adult woman. In this day we will explore how we embody this relationship and express it in our relating to others.  The relationship between mothers and sons is a complex one, as depicted in the myth of Oedipus. What makes a ‘good mother’? What are a son’s needs from a mother? Privacy? Independence? Love? Understanding? Authenticity? Respect? Autonomy and power and control of their own life? Are these not also the needs of any child from any parent; mother or father?  This was a day for all adults who have ever been children, facilitated by mother and son… More details here
