Wild Earth Dance – 13th April 2019

Posted by Maria on 25th March 2019 in Dance, Events 0 comment

After a beautiful event in March we are back. Dive with us into the deep waters of conscious ecstatic dance to open our hearts and access the wisdom of the body in a moving meditation.

** BOOK EARLY AND SAVE £5 **

With the intention to encourage unity and connection in ourselves and the outside world, we flow together with compassion and acceptance of the beautiful and tragic human condition to create a huge offering of soul food through our body prayer.

Our movements open and heal our hearts and give us the courage and possibility to fully be ourselves without apology, on an open floor space that allows our bodies to move freely without judgment or concern for the “grace” or beauty of the dance.

Our hall is dimly lit and laced in connection and authenticity, without specific observers or verbal conversation. Suggestions and invitations are given through a microphone by the facilitator in a space that is held enough to feel safe and yet open enough to encourage creative freedom of expression.

There is much evidence to suggest that creative, spontaneous movement and dance supports a happy, healthy and fulfilled life. Join us to return back home fully to the body again.

** Bring: water, blanket

** Wear: comfy layers

** Cost: book your place before 6th April and pay earlybird price of just £10 … otherwise £15 after and on the door.

** Location: The Bridge Family Centre in Le Geyt Road

** Time: 7 to 9.15pm. Please arrive 10 minutes early to begin on time together.

The evening is facilitated by Maria Barnicoat who started holding regular conscious dance classes back in 2008 (‘bare foot ecstatic dance’ and later ‘soul movement’) after immersing in shamanic dance practices that supported and deepened her personal growth and spiritual journey. Influenced strongly by 5Rhythms, Movement Medicine, Soul Motion, Buddhism, Nature and Mysticism with a passion for loving our planet, staying grateful and overthrowing the patriarchy.

“We dance to shed skins, tear off masks, crack molds, and experience the breakdown – the shattering of borders between body, heart and mind. “ – Gabrielle Roth (founder of the 5Rhythms)

Wild Earth Dance

Posted by Maria on 28th February 2019 in Dance, Events 0 comment

A dance floor for you to journey into a deep connection with yourself and experience the liberation and ecstatic relief of full body integration and presence through conscious movement.

Our space is dimly lit with a supportive creative community of bodies being facilitated into moving meditation through gentle encouragement of moment by moment awareness, with compassion and acceptance of the beautiful and tragic human condition, personal and collective. Dance melts and heals our hearts and gives us the courage and possibility to fully be ourselves without apology.

Our gathering is at the gateway to the Spring Equinox when the Sun moves into the constellation of Aries for new beginnings (coinciding with a full moon just to add to the heightened energy!). During our evening together we’ll take time to create a body prayer meditation for this celebrated time, to tune into our deepest calling so that our seedling energy and efforts for the year grow from a place of reflected congruence and heartsong.

Beginners and seasoned movers all welcome.

Join us and remember why dance has been an intrinsic part of our cultural community expression since time began.

Bring: water, blanket

Wear: comfy layers

Cost: £12 (book your place before 12th March and pay earlybird price of just £10)

Location: The Bridge Family Centre in Le Geyt Road

Time: 7 to 9pm. Please arrive 10 minutes early to begin on time together.

Winter Solstice Sweat Lodge with Melanie Wartho

Posted by Maria on 13th December 2018 in Events, Healing 0 comment

During solstice we are in transition, moving from the darkest time into the time of more light.

Entering the sweat lodge at this time will help us to make this transition with more ease, as in the lodge we are shedding what is no longer needed in our lives and gaining insight into the best that we can do in the future. We are leaving behind the old and creating a space for the new to come flooding in. Join us in celebration of this time and welcome all the best in with love!

During this ceremony, we separate for a time from the physical world and go within ourselves to be able to see with clarity what needs to be healed or resolved and pray for guidance from the ancient grandmothers and grandfathers who have walked the Earth before us. We allow ourselves to connect directly with their wisdom and the original memory that resides within us all.

Everyone is welcome.

Date: Sunday 23rd December 2018

Time: 13.15 til 16.30

Bring: women – a loose fitting dress, men – shorts for inside the lodge, water or hot tea for drinking before and after, warm clothes for after the lodge and willingness to let go and receive our mothers blessings

Where: Behind the Steam Museum in Trinity. Full directions will be sent after booking.

Cost: £25

Concessions Available. Please contact translatemontanita@gmail.com

Transforming the Menopause Stigma

Transforming the Menopause Stigma

With Melanie Wartho

This workshop is open to women of all ages and will deal specifically with our time before, during and after menopause.

The menopause, like menstruation, is seen as a burden, something that we shouldn’t discuss except in negative and unhealthy terms.

The intention of this workshop is to dispel the myths surrounding menopause and to help us to find the immensity of the new powers as healers and grandmothers that we have access to, when we know how to find it.

Too many times have we heard comments from women about their fear of the menopause before they have it along with women who see the menopause as a bad thing and therefore relate to any symptoms they may have as purely difficult, and those women who believe that now they are menopausal, or that when the menopause comes, their life has no meaning and that they are barren and therefore worthless with a life that will be empty.

Now is the time to relearn the positive truths about ourselves as menopausal and post menopausal women.

This workshop is specifically for you if you recognise any of the above feelings either in yourself or someone close.

DATE: Weds 7th November and Weds 14th November

TIME: 7pm til 9.30pm

VENUE: Windyridge House, First Tower, St Helier, JE2 3HR – Parking is limited, please contact for car sharing or check facebook page

COST: £20 per night or £35 for both events in the series

Plant Power – Essential Oils and Our Emotions

Posted by Maria on 22nd October 2018 in doTERRA Living, Events 0 comment

Emotional Health and Wellbeing with Essential Oils (Two Separate Classes!)

Emotional health is at the forefront of all our physical health. If we are vibrant emotionally then our physical wellbeing is likely to thrive too.

In these classes you will learn:

* That we are all emotional beings and that our emotions need to be able to flow for us to feel well physically and how we can encourage and support this to happen.

* In simple terms, how some of the brain’s systems work, in relation to how you react to situations, anxiety and stress

* How you can use meditation, breathing techniques and essential oils to produce ‘calm’ and ‘happy’ hormones (brain chemistry).

* How to DE-STRESS your body’s chemistry, lowering your cortisol level (cortisol being a premature aging stress hormone).

* Which oils to use when RE-CREATING healthier ways to think with affirmations (creating a healthier ‘brain road map’).

* How to create a good nights SLEEP, after all if we don’t sleep well it can play all sorts of havoc on our brains and bodies.

* How we can take care of the children in our lives too.

* HOW TO apply the right oils for you… aromatically, topically and through ingesting.

Come, learn and be empowered. Leave with solutions for a better mental and emotional state of being.

Includes a little surprise at the end too!
