Welcome to “Chakra Balancing for Birth”, a 21-day journey tailored specifically for expectant mothers seeking a harmonious and empowered birthing experience. Every three days, you will receive an email packed with valuable insights on each chakra and its vital role during pregnancy and birth. In each session there will be ideas on how to balance your chakras. It will include affirmations, self-exploratory questions followed by a meditation to balance each chakra and prepare you for birth. This course is designed to foster deep connections—between you, your baby, and your inner wisdom—preparing you physically, emotionally, and spiritually for birth.
The aim of the programme is to feel empowered and ready to welcome your baby into the world and to connect with the Birthing Goddess within.
A pilgrim is someone who sees life as a sacred journey, who sees the earth as a sacred home, who sees the universe as a process… We make the outer journey in order to make an inner journey. The inner landscape is shaped by the outer landscape and vice versa. Therefore, by making an journey to a holy place, we are moved to explore our inner landscape and make our journey to the inner source within.
Wise words by the inspiring Satish Kumar who in the 60’s walked from India the four corners of the nuclear world – Moscow, Paris, London and Washington.
Sacred pilgrimages are journeys of the soul, bringing us in deeper connection with ourselves and the divine. Journeying intentionally to these sacred places can bring healing into our hearts. They can awaken our soul, and help us to remember who we are, and who we once were before. Join us on one.
This is a journey of remembering and connecting to the Great Mother. She who is the source of all creation – the air, the fire, the water, and the earth we walk upon. We know that the Great Mother was worshipped for thousands of years throughout the world, through the remains of beautiful Goddess statues, carvings, pottery and jewellery we have found.

As we dance and flow through the wheel of the seasons, the ancestral lineage of dance calls to you. We practice and learn embodied dance and rhythm. We look to ancient dance practice and weave the Temple Dancer which resides within us all. You will learn sacred movement and bring this forward through personal and group dynamics.
Herbs are wonderful allies for supporting pregnancy, birth, postpartum healing and lactation. This course will take you into the Temple of our Plant Allies. We will each choose a plant to offer ourselves to and learn from, this will be your Plant Ally to meditate and work with. We will learn the language of Botany and the art of medicine making.
There are nine sessions, the first session Sunshine will be hosting in-person at the Goddess House in Glastonbury, UK. You can choose to join in person or through the video offering.
Each session we will co-create Plant Profiles, learning about each plant, its offerings and how to create its medicine. At the completion of this course you will have a full book of plants, their gifts, recipes for medicines and proper dosage. There will be research homework, and of course your daily rituals with your Plant Ally. Each session will be around the new and full moons so we will be a magickal family invoking the Plant Divas together.

An immersive 8-month programme to delve into the world of sound healing. Experience the transformative qualities of sonic resonance, learn to create and facilitate deeply healing spaces, sonic weaving a tapestry of tones, vibrations and harmonies rooted in ancient sounds infused with modern techniques. Our Ancestors knew everything is vibration and energy, and Einstein supported this with his statement “Everything in life is vibration”. Sound baths have grown in popularity over recent years. Creating a sound bath that has healing properties requires skill, awareness cultivation and deep connection with one’s own sonic field. This course will provide you with the tools to create safe spaces and healing sonic tapestries.
Within our societies the Crone as Woman, as Archetype and as Divinity, is almost completely ignored. As woman the Crone is invisible, grey-haired, wrinkled and old, easily dismissed as we walk past her in the street. Yet Cronehood is women’s time of greatest Wisdom in Life, for we have lived through time. We have loved and lost. We have succeeded and failed. We have descended into the depths and risen to the heights. We have grown as human beings. We have experienced life with all its variety and wonder and we have perspective.
This training is a 13-week journey towards an embodied birth experience. You will gain the wisdom and embodiment you need to ecstatically birth your baby. This course is for those who desire to tell a new story about birth and liberate their lineage.
On Embodied Birth Experience, you will learn tools for creating presence during pregnancy and birth to increase connectivity with your baby and create a more euphoric experience.
Through this journey, I will give you the tools to liberate your lineage through deep womb work, whilst also healing and transforming any previous trauma you may be storing in your body, mind, womb or psyche, including birth trauma (being born and previous births).
The training is for heart-centred, soulful women who desire to align with birth as a spiritual, embodied & ecstatic experience.
