Women's Morning - "Swamping", Gentle Yoga & Movement

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧'𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬?

It is time for us women to get together again, reclaim our voices, our depth, our bigness, our tenderness, our connection to one another, reclaim our inner peace and strength through softness. Women gathering and joining forces is such a powerful act, the mind cannot even comprehend…
These mornings are specially designed for women, to come back home to themselves and collectively re-wire back into (inner & outer) safety, back to sisterhood, back to community…

You are not alone and you do not have to carry it all alone. You were never supposed to…
After being so individualized, exhausted, hardened, chasing to meet societies expectations, competing with the masculine, comparing ourselves to one another…

It is time for us to unite, Love & Care for each other without needing to know each other, without needing to earn it first, but simply because it is our innate nature and we have been designed to embody Love. Personal, trans-personal, Universal Love…

Women's Mornings is a series of morning sessions, with Sofia accompanied with another female facilitator.

Swamping is a specially designed ritual for women. You can read about it in the book “PUSSY” by Regena Thomashauer. Swamping is not just another emotional release ritual.
It especially uses the power of sisterhood, because while half of the women are fully allowing their emotions to come, no filter, full permission to make the inner world become visible on the outer world without it needing to be ‘pretty, the other half of the women are surrounding, witness, cheerleading, encouraging and inviting the full expression of the fantastic life force energy that comes through. Your rage is beautiful, your joy is beautiful, your grief is beautiful, your everything is pure life force energy and you are the channel.

As you can guess, energy wants to move, like a river. When we block the river (swallow emotions) and not allow them to finish the E-nergy in MOTION to finish it’s cycle, it does not just disappear. It get’s stored somewhere in our bodies. This stuckness is actually costing us energy, our most valuable currency: our radiance! We get numb, lose vitality, harden, the energy even solidifies into actual disease when the stuckness is very severe or stays for a long time. There are many things and ways how you can move this energy. But because it is such a ‘taboo’ in our conditioned city life, where there is not space for big emotions, we start by ‘un-stucking’ ourselves. When we un-stuck, the energy can flow again and becomes available for channeling into your creations, your gifts, your family, your art, you regain and reclaim what was one gifted to you… your natural, radiant aliveness & infinite creation ability.
This session is not a one-time fix all. Your steps might be small. It is a process that takes patience, and going at your own pace. Maybe witnessing other women in their emotions is already enough for you in the first session. This is not about performing big, it is about following your inner truth and tuning into the wonderful wisdom of your body…

Go for comfort. This is a place you can show up in clothes you can move in easily, lay on the ground with. It is handy to not wear any makeup because that might be in the way of allowing emotions. It is an invitation to show up as raw & natural as you are comfortable with, and experience that you are so loved in that state. No need to pretend or perform here…

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠?
It is handy to bring a small towel and warm socks. Bring something nice to eat and drink to share with your sisters during the potluck lunch!

This location is an old theatre building in a small village next to Hoofddorp. It is an anti-squatting property that we can use until the building will be demolished. Good news, since it was a theatre: amazing acoustics and sound isolation. Imagine doing voice liberation, emotional release without needing to hold back your sound because of ‘neighbors’. This space is perfect for embracing your bigness!
(This is not the farmhouse location where the "One Day Women's Retreat" is held, but a different one!)
