Join Us for A Day of Personal Renewal in Community

Rise Gatherings is a conscious women's community that comes together to explore topics and experiences, connect more deeply with ourselves and others, and receive what we need to be all of ourselves. 


What is Deep-Body Listening?

Deep-body listening is a strategy for grounding, gaining wisdom and restoring vitality to your life.  Beginning with gratitude for our bodies which are miraculous, we turn to the body as a storehouse of wisdom and the most precious tool we have. At Awakened Body, clients practice the art of deep-body listening through seasonal cleanses, journaling, meditation and during hands-on healing sessions. 

About the Day

Rise Day Retreats take place in a beautiful forest retreat, and feature fresh catered cuisine and forest bathing. In the morning, Sara will guide us in a deep dive into the mind-body-spirit connection and introduce participants to the energetic map of the body she uses in her hands-on healing work. By making space for the many layers of who we are as human beings, in the morning workshops we’ll get primed for healing and release. In the afternoon, through open-hearted sharing, breath work and gentle touch, together we will practice the art of deep-body listening.
