The Centred Self Workshop - postponed

Postponed - please visit Lizzie’s website to join her mailing list to find out about future dates. https://www.lizzieclark.com/

Over 3 unhurried hours, we gather in circle to honour both Self and Mother. We begin by grounding into the body, softening the noise of daily life. From there, we gently unearth what makes your heart and mind come alive — your values, desires and quiet inner wisdom.
