We have just started Untethered.
Please join our waiting list for a future opportunity to participate in one of our circle journeys.
This 3-month online circle and meditation journey is an exploration back to self, curated for women, non-binary people, and anyone who identifies as a woman. Untethered is for those who are seeking release from the expectations placed upon them by others, themselves, and society.
In a world where we are asked to be everything, to everyone, all the time; Untethered is a gentle space to navigate a way back to our true selves with kindness and curiosity.
Through meditation, self-discovery activities, journal prompts, and by sharing stories in circle we can untether our innate rising wisdom. A wisdom that inherently knows how to guide us to exactly where we need to be.
Once you have signed up to the programme you will have a 60-minute discovery call with Sophie to explore where you are currently in your life, what you aim to achieve through participating in this programme of self-growth, and how she can best support you over the 3-month experience. This session will also include a 1:1 guided meditation.
Six sharing circles are the main component of this programme and offer a brave space where you can find your voice. This may feel easier for some than others, yet in circle we sit side-by-side with the intention of removing hierarchy and creating unity, creating a gentle place where we can explore the stories we need to share. We do not offer advice or guidance in circle, we simply listen without the intent to reply; allowing those sharing to connect to their own wisdoms to guide them in whatever way they need. Circle is a soft and kind space that can feel emotionally nourishing.
There are four exclusive guided meditations for the participants of Untethered during the journey we will be travelling together. These sessions will start with a re-connection of the group before we begin the meditation. Then through quieting the outside world we can focus our attention inwards where our deeper knowing resides. Suitable for those newer to meditation as well as those with more experience, all you need is a quiet and comfortable spot to sit and connect.
Eight guided self-discovery activities punctuate the programme. These allow you to enquire more about your values, strengths, accomplishments, and more, to help give clarity to your authentic being. These activities lead us into the circle gatherings with intention and awareness.
Over the Untethered journey you will be provided with weekly journaling prompts that help you to enquire deeply into your true self, with kindness and curiosity. Light a candle, take a notepad and pen, connect with the prompt, and then spend some time letting your thoughts flow. When we don't focus too much on editing our writing in the moment, our inner thoughts can be revealed. Let your thoughts flow freely, and tenderly catch them on paper as they fall.
Throughout the Untethered journey you will receive text and/or email support from Sophie, offering regular connection throughout this experience, and an invitation to join in digital connection with the others in the programme, to encourage a deeper overall experience.
Although participating in Untethered may feel deeply nurturing and therapeutic, please be mindful that this programme is not therapy,
Paulo Coelho
In ancient times, communities gathered in a non-hierarchical circle to share their stories. Whoever held the ceremonial stick or stone, known as the ‘talking piece’, would be able to share their story uninterrupted. They would not be offered any advice or guidance; simply a platform where their voice could be heard. This sacred art of circle allows us to be witnessed in our word, and as a result we can feel truly heard and gently held in our vulnerability.
By combining circle with guided meditation, we can find a deeper connection to self as we travel inwards and connect with our innate wisdoms, and the supporting journaling prompts and self-discovery activities help to make this journey a transformative experience for those looking to reconnect with their true self.
are struggling to find connection with yourself, as you have been serving others or putting other peoples needs before your own.
have been busy for such a long while, it has become your norm. but you wish to travel a lighter path.
yearn for rest that never arrives, or struggle to embrace it meaningfully when it comes.
are in a transitional point in your life and do not know which road to take, and feel unsure how to decide.
have become a lone wolf, feel isolated from your community, or have begun to feel you don't need anyone else to get through life.
don't feel in touch with your intuition, you want to find a way back to your self and your inner wisdoms.
have stories to tell, a voice to be heard. perhaps feeling unsure of how to step into this space of sharing, but are intrigued and willing to try.
are open-hearted and willing to grow, welcoming of tender self-exploration as you learn to love yourself more fully.
learn ways to connect with yourself by carving out smalls windows to reflect and meditate, revealing the best version of you.

-
If you have decided that now is not the right time for you to join Untethered, you are encouraged to honour this knowing.
Take a little time to reflect on the way you have lovingly and courageously listened to what you need in this moment.
How does this feel in your heart?
Come back when you are ready, a space will always be available when the calling comes.
The Untethered journey is designed for women, non-binary people, and anyone who identifies as a woman. The space is designed to be soft, nurturing, gentle and kind, and leans towards a more feminine energy.
Rising Wisdom is an LGBTQ+ welcoming, and a trans-inclusive space where trans women are fully recognised as women, and where people are welcome to honour and explore the complicated nuance of their own sex, gender, and identity without being shamed.
Should the idea of this causes a negative reaction within you and you do not feel you are able to hold space for the beautiful myriad of bodies and identities in this world then, with kindness, this is probably not the best space for you.
If you are, or identify as a man and would be interested in participating in these sorts of gatherings then I would be very happy to signpost you to some beautiful spaces that have been designed with the male participant in mind.
