Is there a lineage of goddesses that claims the evolutionary power of female sexuality? And if so, why were they pushed to the shadows and demeaned as harlots? Was Mary Magdalene one of them, and what were her teachings?

Dr. Joanna Kujawa in her book argues that in the process of recovering the healing power of the Goddess we have focused solely on the mother archetype and left out the other Goddess, who is often represented in mythical, historical, and Gnostic sources as wise, mysterious, and in the possession of the healing power of Eros.

This one of kind event is an opportunity for our audience to interact with three thought-leading women and engage in some self care with nature, and mediation sound bath session.

Breakfast, tea and coffee is included.

But, if you would like to start your day off with a goddess-like daily yoga practice to restore and rejuvenate yourself, surrounded by nature and like-minded people, and nourishing yourself with a paddock-to-plate lunch we have something to make your day extra special:

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS

🧘 7:30am: Pre-event yoga session with Paula Hindle

🥗 Nourishing lunch at the conclusion of the event

Yoga is strictly limited, so you will need to be quick to secure your mat!

Looking into esoteric traditions that celebrated the Goddess and her art of sexual alchemy, Dr. Joanna Kujawa sets out on a detective journey to answer these questions. She discovers that Mary Magdalene stands at the center of this investigation.

Whether looking at Mary Magdalene, Sophia, Aphrodite, Inanna, Hathor, Isis, or the goddesses of esoteric Hinduism, Dr. Kujawa finds the archetype of The Other Goddess-the bearer of the mysteries of sexual alchemy that ends the division between sexuality and spirituality.
