The days are growing shorter. There’s a quiet that stirs in the night.

Mother nature is turning inward in the northern hemisphere and yet this is the season that asks us to reach outward fully while it’s completing.

How many hats are you being asked to wear for how many people?

Maybe you love it, because you do it so well and…

Somewhere inside, perhaps you're longing to put down the pressure of being it all and doing it all. You want to create space. To feel revived. To feel the holiness of this time in your own body. To experience it filling you back up for a change.

The Sensual Descent is an invitation to soften inward, reclaim the strength and wisdom of what you’ve lived this year, and make room to feel who you are now and what’s taking shape within you.

This is for you if…

• Your life is full, and you want room to savour what you’ve been creating.

• You’re learning to trust your yes and your no, and want to feel more ease in expressing them.

• You love your people and are discovering how closeness can leave room for you, too.

• You’re welcoming more pleasure and eros and want it woven into the ordinary texture of your days.

• You’ve opened something meaningful in yourself this year and desire for it to take root and be seen.

• You long to gather with strong intuitive women and feel replenished by the care you give and receive.

A different kind of light

The dark months offer us a way to know ourselves more intimately.

The evenings lengthen. Warmth feels different against the skin. We notice the rooms we soften in, the company we open with, the quiet we’re hungry for.

Your body is in conversation with the season.

As you listen, you begin to recognize what nourishes you. What stirs your desire. When you want closeness, when you need solitude, and what helps you return to yourself.

This is sensual knowing: a relationship with the world around you and the world within you.

The descent gives that relationship room to deepen.

To feel the swell of truth in your heart and belly. To discover the strength in your softness, the clarity in your pleasure, the wisdom in an ending.

And to let what you discovered this year about yourself and your life shape how you move through the season ahead.

There is a light that rises here: steady, warm, your own.

You get to bring all of her: your gifts, your desire, your grief, your darkness. And discover how much life is there.

Some of what you’ll experience…

• Experience the pleasure of a clear no, and the warmth of a yes your body welcomes.

• Settle more deeply into yourself, with room to breathe, feel, and receive.

• Explore what replenishes you in this season: creativity, sensual movement, quiet, joy

• Make space for the grief, the unspoken, and the eros stirring within this year’s ending

• Honour what’s come full circle, and let it nourish what’s next.

• Be held in a circle of women, where giving and receiving both refill you.

• Enter the new year from the truth of who you’ve become, like a red carpet you get to walk down, simply because you’re alive.

Bring a warm drink, a blanket, a journal, and yourself as you are.

My name is Laura Griffiths, somatic therapist, relationship and intimacy guide, executive leadership mentor, and energy practitioner.

For over twenty years, I’ve accompanied women through the intimate thresholds of their lives - birth, death, rebirth, and the changing seasons of love, leadership, and desire.

My work weaves the science of the female body with somatic practice, energetic awareness, and the wisdom of nature’s cycles. I guide women into a more intimate relationship with their bodies and nervous systems: sensing the connection between breath, heart, and pelvis; recognizing desire and capacity; and discovering what allows pleasure, steadiness, and vitality to take root. We explore eco-eros: the intimate relationship between the living world and our own sensual, creative nature. Through embodied listening, we discover our rhythms of conceiving, nourishing, releasing, and resting and how they shape our relationships, our work, and the worlds we create.

Together, we listen to the truth moving through your body and give it room to shape how you love, lead, create, and receive.

Questions you might have

Do I need experience with somatic work? No. Come as you are. Every practice is guided, step by step.

What if I miss a gathering? Every teaching and guided practice is recorded, so you can catch up in your own time.

Do I have to share? Never. Sharing is always an invitation. Many women participate quietly, and that's welcome.

Is this therapy? It's a group gathering, not a substitute for individual therapy. If you're in an especially tender season, write to me first and we'll talk it through.

When does registration close? Sunday, November 16.

An invitation to come closer

To your senses. To your desires. To the life you are actually living. To the women gathering beside you.

May this be a place where time feels more spacious. Where you can receive, feel revived, and honour who you are becoming, without rushing the parts of you that still need winter.

Investment: $550, or two payments of $285
