In honor of Mother’s Day, you are invited into a sacred day of remembrance — a journey into the living roots of your being.

Before you had language, before you had identity, before you knew who you were — you knew your mother.
Her heartbeat was your first rhythm. Her body was your first home. Her nervous system taught yours how to feel safe… or how to survive.

Motherhood is a holy threshold. It is the portal through which life enters this world. And yet, in a culture that forgets how to truly honor and support mothers, many carry their own unmet needs, unhealed wounds, and silent grief. What is unhealed does not disappear — it is passed on.

The mother wound lives quietly within us.
In our bodies.
In our attachment patterns.
In the way we love.
In the way we protect.
In the way we abandon ourselves.

Some of these imprints are tender whispers. Others are deep ruptures. All of them shape the architecture of our inner world.

In this intimate and carefully held container, we will descend gently into these roots. Through deep somatic and embodied practices, we will listen to what the body remembers. We will honor the pain without blame. We will make space for grief, for truth, for compassion.

This is not about vilifying our mothers.
It is about breaking unconscious cycles.
It is about reclaiming the parts of ourselves that were shaped in survival.
It is about becoming conscious ancestors.

We will also explore how these early imprints ripple into the present — in how we mother, how we relate to mothers, how we nurture, how we withhold, how we open, and how we close.

This day is an initiation.
A return.
A softening.
A reclamation of your own inner mother — the one who can hold you now with the love you may have longed for then.

*Previously, this was an all-gender workshop. While we recognize that people of all genders have mother-wound healing to explore, this year we are offering the workshop for women only as an effort to deepen the healing of the feminine.

We plan to offer this kind of work again in the future for people of all genders. If you are male-bodied and interested in this workshop, please let us know and we will add you to the interest list. The more interest we receive, the sooner we can offer it.
