sanctuary | a wide field

Making sanctuary

This practice is therapeutic, it moves at your pace.

This is a sanctuary space

it is countercultural

she is a sweet rebel

where tenderness conjures thinking

at a pace, with ease

that is shaped by you.

I offer this slow time, a sanctuary space to acknowledge and make sacred what is present for you and the very real and overwhelming feelings that we are currently experiencing, our grief, fear and anxieties in response to societal and environmental crises.

"Urgent times, call for quiet; for rest and respite. Instead of ramping up, we must surrender, and wait to witness the transformative potential of stillness."

Báyò Akómoláfé

This sanctuary space is informed by The Work That Reconnects, Otto Scharmer and Theory U, ecopsychology and eco-anxiety, Buddhist psychology and a range of movement modalities that support deep enquiry and ways of coming home to ourselves.

I have been shaped by the extraordinary hearts and minds of Francis Weller, Thomas Hübl, Tara Brach, Báyò Akómoláfé, Tricia Hersey, Rebecca Solnit, Joanna Macey, Christiana Figueres and Nancy Kline.

"There is some strange intimacy between grief and aliveness, some sacred exchange between what seems unbearable and
what is most exquisitely alive."
