Beach Wellbeing Sessions
When you attend a Soulcraft beach wellbeing session, you can expect a relaxing and reflective experience that lasts between one and two hours, depending on numbers. You can come on your own for a personal session, or you can come with others. It’s also possible to book a place on an open group session.
There is no prerequisite in terms of beliefs or faith although all the work of Soulcraft is inspired by nature and gentle pagan traditions and an open mind is always welcome.
What to expect
Your session will be made up of some core components, but if you have a particular interest or preference, we can substitute some of these and weave in a different activity from the optional components.
-
We’ll begin by gathering together around a fire and creating an opening circle.
If you’re comfortable with pagan practices, at this time we’ll ‘cast’ a circle and work within this during our session
-
We’ll then do some affirmation work before touching on a collective mindfulness activity.
After this, we’ll enjoy a simple guided meditation, followed by a beautiful movement meditation called Tis Logi (suitable for all abilities)
-
We’ll hold space for each other in our circle, reflect on how we feel and discuss any issues that arose whilst we have hot cacao and something to eat.
-
We’ll conclude by closing our circle and bidding the beach farewell.
Core components
-
You’ll learn some traditional earth based chants and have a sing-song on the beach!
Please note, this is not Buddhist or Hindu chanting.
-
If you have a particular affinity with a deity, a plant, a season or an animal, we can explore this together and create a simple ritual of reverence.
-
Ecotherapy is based on the idea that we are all connected to the earth and it suggests to us that we can achieve relaxation from a connection with nature.
We’ll do some grounding and reflective exercises and observe the nature around us deeply and consider how this affects how we feel.
-
We’ll dedicate some time to collective drumming and use this as a meditative and reflective session. Bring your own drum or borrow one on the day.
-
Ancestor healing is a process designed to help us connect, repair and nurture relationships with our ancestors and to consider how their experiences manifest in our own lives.
At an introductory level, we will explore this together and create a simple healing ritual.
-
You’ll learn about the origins and evolution of the shamanic drum and experience a drum and chant session.
-
We’ll identify issues that are blocking you from where you want to be in life and consider how these can be removed and released through visualisation and other techniques.
-
We’ll explore the process of manifestation and engage in a gentle ritual to show you a method for achieving your goals.
-
We’ll create a structured environment for you to engage in silent meditation, surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature.
If needed, we can provide a meditation focus or utilise other techniques to assist you.
-
If you’d like your session to take place on a particular date or to coincide with a festival day or moon phase, this can be arranged and included during our time together.
