There are many layers and definitions of love.
At the core, mine is to no longer resist who we are.
Join me for a weekend of women's wisdom and initiation.
Where the quality of time you'll have with yourself, will soften inside you.
Until you can no longer resist being who you are.

What does it mean to soften into your life?

I'm a practitioner of the Art of Restoration
This is about listening to the aspect of ourselves that has often been in a state of heightened and sustained anxiety, restriction, tightness, imbalance, discomfort and control. And learning to lean into it. |
Due to the colonization of our relationship to the earth, and to a historical imbalance in our connection to vital feminine energy, there's a discordant way we, as women,
have tended to our body's well-being.
Out of survival, we've focused on outside growth and guidance, downplaying the wisdom and sustenance required
to soften to ourselves.

When we come together as Womban, we gather ourselves up, becoming present to an interior harmony that offers us soulful replenishment.

During this weekend, we take time to GIVE BACK to our interior nature, wombs and bodies. Into places that reverberate with an organic environment. We sit together in reciprocation of Earth's wisdom. Inviting the exhausted, forgotten and worn-out parts, to be restored by the design of Mother Earth. She is the one within us that embraces all that we are. |

This is how we soften to ourselves and restore.

"Exquisite space tending and multi sensory time to be with, reflect, plant seeds, let go, do very little, be held, reset. A slow and gentle unfolding. The consistency and continuity that built over the days. Also, your devoted tending of the soft structure of the container in macro and micro ways. The garden. The wombing. Unconditional love. Spaciousness/time to settle and bloom. I was glad to have had the high level of personal space to fall into alongside the wombing part. It struck a good balance. I am so grateful for this experience." ~ Root Home

"Everything was so welcoming and comfortable. What a perfect space for small groups to come together. It felt so safe and warm. Time never felt rushed. Everything came together beautifully."
~ Spring 2023 participant ✽
"It felt very supportive to have this time to center in myself and to be with female energy. It was very meaningful to be listened to, and to share in this beautiful weekend with such loving women. I was surprised by how the nest experience felt so safe, and I felt very comfortable. I wouldn’t normally sign up for something like this. I walked away feeling rejuvenated. My glass is full."
~ Winter 2022/2023 participant ✽
"Sweet succulent slowness in the midst of much chaos. Thank you for your energy, openness, vulnerability and love. All of these helped me get to where I needed to be. It was meaningful to have focused time to go deeper into my heart of hearts. I received the power, energy, vulnerability and support of a small group of like minded, kind, compassionate women. There is nothing like doing this in person! You are magic the way you connect all the group!! You have this amazing capacity to listen deeply, connect everyone together and remember what each individual says, bringing it back to what's being felt and talked about. I feel such awe when I watch and receive this. This process never ceases to amaze me." ~ Jane

"I enjoyed the quiet, serene, indoor & outdoor space. Being with a small group of like minded women focusing on ourselves & each other in a loving * open * nonjudgmental * supportive environment. I was surprised about how emotional I became. Tears overflowing when I was being "loved on" or I was doing the hands on loving support of others." ~ Judi

"The outpouring of real care, tenderness and love that I received just blew my mind. The fact that I could just sit there and cry was so freeing. At first I was so embarrassed by it, but looking back now, it was so gently held by all in the room and really made me feel safe. I was surprised at how comfortable I felt with everyone after such a short amount of time. That I myself would feel such a deep love and pull to each and every one. And that I was able to carry it forward after leaving each day to kinder more open interactions and understanding of my family. I was surprised how much I felt during the wombing as both giver and receiver. A beautiful feeling comes over me every time I think about it. How did everyone know exactly what I needed? I CAN receive that level of care. I'm allowed to. I'm supposed to. I realized my life doesn't always have to be about the giving. I need to feel that care. That need was so deeply met in our weekend together and I've been holding onto it. " ~ Spring 2023 participant

"The support I felt was more than meaningful. It was completely life-giving. After being riddled with anxiety and hopelessness during my health challenges, your retreat continued fostering my journey of reclaiming my sense of self and wholeness. I gained leaps and bounds in clarity, and feel a re-balancing, returned confidence, and an ongoing bundle of nourishment for my body, mind and soul. You have an amazing way to bring nourishment into every single aspect of your work. The intentional, organic flow of the time we spent together in your aesthetically beautiful sanctuary, and engaging in nature was perfect for me. I have taken my re-awakening back home. I’m experiencing more trust than ever while navigating fear, more ease in how light and dark serve me, and a reboot in my belief that the light will shine through as soon as I’m ready. I'm feeling more joyful, and there is a deeper inner strength present in my challenging moments. My awarenesses feel heightened, and the surrender to follow my awareness seems profoundly grounded. Fear of change is lessening its grip. I am undeniably relieved that I am finally navigating sadness in a new way. My relationship with my inner little girl feels sweeter than ever. I also released trauma I’ve been holding in my body without even being aware it was happening. The entire process has such immense integrity, emotional and physical security, confidentiality, flexibility and allowance. The conscious conversations, setting intentions, reflection, deep rooted wisdom, music, song, meditation, sisterhood, resources shared, and the phenomenally experiential healing of Womb-ing were ways in which my soul was nurtured." ~ Cheri

On Friday
We come together to sit with Softening.
To be in Circle. And Sisterhood Counsel. Sharing space, time and sacredness.
We speak with honesty about what's arising within our bodies, ready to liberate us.
We listen to inner stillness and what it's guiding us towards.
We know what we need.
We honor the night and her twilight. The darkness. And the restored body of WOMAN upon EARTH.
Standing beneath the stars, we listen to the song of our soul calling us home.

On Saturday
We're ready to rest and RECEIVE. To lay it down and simply let go. To soften into womb's wisdom.
Into chaos of creation that fills our bodies with harmony and knowing.
We gather 'round in nests, settling into comfort of surrender.
Our Sisters care is like ancient whispers of who we once were and are opening to become.
We REMEMBER and scribe our soul's wisdom upon our hearts.

On Sunday
We no longer pretend. We sit, poised in fierce clarity. We know what actually nourishes us.
And what's most important for our well-being.
We're witnessed in resiliency and fortification. We're calm to its reception.
Baring truth to what's alive inside our connection, we dance lightly to the laughter of our self.

Throughout the Weekend
We drink tea and write notes of care to life. We gaze into Sisters' eyes. And RESTORE our intimacy with life.
We remember the needs of our bodies, and tend them. We see what we've been denying, and throw our heads back, laughing from our bellies about what we've forgotten. We give thanks for ease that encircles us. We allow wisdom of Sisterhood to soothe our bones and imprint its lifeblood. We gaze anew at our skin, discovering deeper pathways of homecoming.
We give thanks for our lineage, offering gifts to our ancestors. We honor these vast eternal landscapes.

About Two Weeks Later
We gather on Zoom to check-in. Choosing to live in Softening, doesn't happen away from our daily lives. It happens while we are fully ALIVE. We come back together for 75 minutes to hear how each sister is doing, offering a mirror and amplification to continue forth in wisdom and resourcing. (We choose our time to connect during our in-person weekend.)
Let us turn towards WISDOM.
By softening into our bodies and getting in touch with the harmony of life within.
All aspects of our elemental nature are vital and necessary for our restoration.
Let us turn towards NON-RESISTANCE.
By listening to the exhaustion, ache and longing in our bones.
Our depletion holds guidance for our softening. We make space to honor it.
Let us turn towards WONDER.
By opening ourselves to our vitality and beauty.
Giving restorative power BACK INTO our life lines.
We SOFTEN together.
By reclaiming energy from spaces and places we didn't know how to trust before.
We listen to its harmony within and entrust ourselves to restorative guidance.
We RELAX into the care of our Sisters and Earth as it gently ushers us alive.
We allow our bodies to sink into replenishment of what we're designed for, reawakening to the LIFE pulsing inside.
This is our SOFTENING.

Sharon Ann RoseI believe in the power of the Feminine to transform the world.
I honor the enfolding of the Earth that shows us the way. I've been privy to the sacred medicine of alchemical Sisterhood. I've walked a circuitous pilgrimage of softening into who I naturally am. I look forward to welcoming you into my heart, life and home sanctuary for this weekend of your own intimacy with life. Learn more about me and what I hold dear. |
