In Fertile soil - Embodied Permission Retreat
“And the day came when the desire to remain tight in a bud grew more painful than the risk it takes to blossom – Anaïs Nin”
Our story lives within the body.
There is calmness in knowing that in our soft tissue nested in the deep body of our pelvic bowl we are home. Here our life source, our creativity and our passions reside.
In the fertile soil of your body the movement below the skin fills the cells with slowness rather than a rhythm faster than we sometimes can follow.
Maybe we were told our longing was too much and we clenched it, held back and dimmed ourselves to fit in.
Can we give ourselves permission to be all that we are? This is the invitation in.
In these four magical days together we will open for the creative stream of consciousness sourcing wildly within us so that we can evoke our truest desires - our biggest dreams to be spoken out loud - and all that we are come visible.
The invitation is to soften into the totality of longing’s ache and discover the love that trembles beneath it all. We drop into ourselves in our not so polished ways,
We will connect with self, each other and nature allowing that which is dormant – our inwardness – to be nourished and surrender ourselves through movement, poetry, art, witnessing and ritual to discover the layers of our creativity vividly swirling within us. In fertile soil the seeds of newness are planted. Pleasurable and playful life force readies to be birthed back into the light and taken into life.
Camilla says:
“I’ll meet you there - in a field of love wildly sourcing through the fertile soil of your body. Led by pleasure and ease, turned on by life so that you and I can do our soul’s work we came to do.

About Embodied Permission
"In Fertile soil" will be in the field of Embodied Permission - a somatic approach to living, loving and leading with pleasure, play and purpose.
Embodied Permission is the bundle of conscious movement practices, nervous system regulation, physiology and anatomy, right left brain communication for living and leading life as a moving meditation.
We allow joy and ease to be the inner compass needle we follow and as we find safety within yourself the only one you need permission from is you.
We stay with what is tight until it loosen its grip, with what is narrow until it widens. Selected music from contemplative to powerful and the sound of silence supports us.
In a safe space where there is no judgement, no right or wrong, everything is possible and nothing is expected you can relax, feel yourself and express freely.
