Chakra Balancing for Birth
Sacred Birth Centre
With Alison Shaloe
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.

Goddess Pilgrimages
Goddess Pilgrimages
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.

An Introduction to the Birthkeeper’s Path
With Sunshine Tresidder
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.
