Healing the Feminine Heart: Friday, March 2nd – Sunday, March 4th, 2012
Women’s Mindfulness and Intimacy
I am excited to invite you to join me March 2nd – 4th, for a “Healing the Feminine Heart Weekend” at Cascadia Retreat Centre in Robert’s Creek.
In a sacred circle of women, explore tools for cultivating deeper intimacy in your relationships, beginning with yourself. Through body based meditation, artistic and emotional expression, connect with your deeper knowing, awaken to unconscious patterning, and learn to let go of behaviours that no longer serve you.
Together we will explore the issues that many women share:
• Learning to uncover and express feelings in the safety of a confidential and sacred circle.
• Sharing the challenges and joys of re-inventing ourselves in relationships, families and worklife.
• Deepening our spiritual life though meditation, stretching, music and movement.
• Discovering new avenues for creative expression using a variety of materials such as clay, collage, masks and textiles. (All of our work is experiential and every activity and process is voluntary.)
• Relaxing into beautiful natural surroundings and enjoying delicious healthy mealsOnce again I will be joined by workshop co-host Carol Sill. Creative and expressive practices will beautifully complement our personal “open seat” sessions. It’s a time to go deeply into ourselves, share with others and move more inwardly mindful through the busyness of this new year.
There are a number of women already committed to the weekend, so Nancy will need to hear from you promptly if you plan to participate.

By guiding our bodies to a place of internal listening, she helps us discover and remember how we long to move.
Karen Roeper is the founder of Essential Motion. Karen’s lifelong focus has been to explore the relationships between body and emotions, the mind, and Spirit. She has conducted seminars both nationally and internationally for over twenty years. Karen holds a Masters in Counseling and Dance Therapy is a Rosen Method Bodywork Senior Teacher and is an adjunct faculty member at JFK University.

Healing the Feminine Heart
A Women’s Mindfulness and Intimacy Retreat
Join Mindfulness and Intimacy coach Nancy Mortifee for a deeply enlivening weekend of personal exploration and spiritual practice for women.
She describes the workshop here:
Together the group explores issues that many women share, delving into the following aspects of feminine experience:
• Learning to uncover and express feelings in the safety of a confidential and sacred circle.
• Sharing the challenges and joys of re-inventing ourselves in relationships, families and worklife.
• Deepening our spiritual life through meditation, yoga, music and movement.
• Discovering new avenues for creative expression using a variety of materials such as clay, collage, masks and textiles.
• Relaxing into beautiful, natural surroundings and enjoying delicious, healthy meals.We invite adult women of all ages with varying interests and life experiences.
The common thread is our desire to know and express ourselves more fully in life and to receive from one another as women have always done.
This retreat offers participants the chance to renew their sense of aliveness, gain new insights and bear witness to the possibility of personal change. All retreat work is experiential – every activity and process is completely voluntary and grounded in practical application for real life in the conventional world.
I am delighted to be joined again by my dear friend, Carol Sill, who brings years of spiritual practice and will lead us in the beautiful Yoga Nidra.
