Earth Spirituality

Ritual is something that many of us desire but don’t know how to create.

Do you long for something sacred but you’re not sure what it is? Are you drawn towards the ideas of tranquillity, serenity and peace but haven’t found a way to access it?

Do you crave a strong connection with nature and the elements? 

Are you interested in shamanism, paganism and earth religion?

Are you curious about what it all means?!

Many of us are no longer attracted to the traditional religions but haven’t yet found our spiritual “home”. I believe that spirituality is an intimately personal experience, and just as each one of us is a totally unique individual, so our spirituality is unique.

My own spirituality is developed from a very large number of influences!

At an earth spirituality event we experience a reverent atmosphere which we can rest into. This in itself is an act of self-love as we give ourselves the time and space to be cherished.

We have our senses enlivened with images, sound, vibration, touch, movement, scent and sometimes taste! Whilst many find traditional meditation challenging, by being physically involved in the ritual practice with an attitude of honouring, you will receive an opportunity to calm the mind and spirit in a different way.

I believe that sensory experiences awaken the brain and provide cues for states of relaxation, awareness and peace. It has recently been publicised that sensory stimulation contributes to the expanded use, and improved health of the brain.

We engage in the most ancient spiritual practice of invoking the elements of earth, air, fire, water and spirit and honouring our Mother Earth.

We may include visioning, journeying, meditation, prayer, intention, sage smudging, incensing, candles, drumming, honouring the five elements and the four directions, honouring the moon, singing and chanting.

Each event is unified into a theme for the event you attend, and is rooted in cultivating the Divine Feminine qualities. Click here to read about Divine Feminine and Goddess

A spiritual practice of honouring and ritual is like saying to the universe “Yes! I’m open to experiencing spirituality. I have respect for the unseen powers and I choose to remember that, at my centre, I am whole and divine”

Spiritual practice can lead to greater self-love, self-awareness, self-connection, inner peace and, sometimes, great healing or awakening.

    Watch a video about why I love earth spirituality here . The Earth religions are the oldest we know of and, I believe, are the foundations of all spirituality. The honouring of the elements (earth, air, fire, water and spirit) and the directions (north, east, south and west) are common around the world, especially with indigenous tribes. The Chinese tradition observes five elements which are wood, fire, earth, metal and water.  The mainstream religions still include the elements in their rituals today, such as the Hindu fire ceremonies, the offering of the elements to the Christian altar, and sacred buildings around the world are usually oriented to a specific direction. In our observance and honouring of nature we find perfect balance. There is balance between masculine and feminine, creation and destruction, night and day, outward and inward. These opposites are, I believe, in deepest truth, in union with each other. When we are steeped in spiritual energies throug

Emergence at Beltane 2023

  We began our honouring with sage smudging. We burnt the fragrant sage and received the cleansing smoke around us whilst chanting quietly.   Next, we brought ourselves into present awareness with the breath and by engaging our senses. We took in the sights of the images and seasonal decorations on the altars. Then we turned to taste ( a sundried sultana), and we each chose a meditation stone to hold. We listened to the sounds of birdsong, and paid attention to the scent (lemongrass, juniper, ylang ylang).   We took some deep breaths together, relaxed our bodies and re-connected with ourselves. When we welcome ourselves and our beautiful bodies into the sacred space we feel instantly more calm. We acknowledged this time of honouring we give to ourselves, and embraced the intention to feel compassion and absolute kindness. So often, we are automatically hard on ourselves and focussed on external judgments.  At the beginning of our events this reminder about compassion and kindne
