An intimate circle of becoming, through movement, sound & Ritual…
It's widely known that women have an innate skill set in juggling, whether caring for children or family members, navigating work and relationships or the delicate tending of spirituality and taking care of others. Women do - and have always held - a lot for the collective to function. Many of us crave to be in spaces where we can feel really held and nourished by peaceful surroundings and sweet, open people. In these rare and precious moments, we find rest and respite from all the daily doing, multitasking & imposed expectations.
Whether it's to reclaim or simply to tend to self awareness and joy, this calling to lean deeper into calm terrain is often birthed from a need to realign with what's truly healthy for our body’s expression; a desire to find pathways back towards those parts of ourselves we have left behind. We too must allow ourselves the space to feed our wellspring of curiosity, energy and wisdom.
InHer Temple offers a restorative and awakening space where we can surrender into receiving. In the backdrop of the Andalucian Mountains, held by the elegance of this light-filled, cosy retreat space, you will be guided through a carefully-curated flow of intuitive practices and sensual healing.
Time will be given to our creative process through heart based practices; dancing, journalling, circle sharings, songs and intentional rest in nature, opening a portal for profound reconnection to that which truly feeds us as women.
Chelan & Jiya bring decades of combined experience and fully embody the essence of this experience. Entrusting their lives to creative discovery and intuitive flow, this medicine of intuitive awareness and the intimacy of sisterhood effortlessly radiates throughout the space. The comfort, artistic details and natural materials of the Tierra Cosmica sanctuary perfectly support our journey.
For some this is a deep dance of remembering, for others it's an awakening to expand further towards that which is calling. Together we find ways to dive deeper into union with ourselves & each other, unfurling into the sweetness of HER.
About The Practice …
The Somatic Movement and Dance practices shared within this retreat are uniquely guided in Chelan’s and Jiya’s signature style, knowing each & every human body is designed to move & be moved by life itself. Knowingly or unknowingly the body wants to be in motion, it yearns to be in rhythm, it awaits connectivity & resonance through vibration, through flow within space & time.
Through guided dance journeys we welcome the unique blueprint of each individual to find their body's primal voice, to unleash that which is waiting to be witnessed, giving expression to all parts of ourselves. We work closely with soundscapes to guide the body deeper into the discovery of free movement & offer somatic queuing to facilitate the force of union & widen the hearts capacity to hold space for oneself.
Within the dance we explore our inner resources, capacities & call upon the essence of joy & ecstasy to assist harmonious transformation. Using the body parts as access points & elemental teachings we storytell & hold space for the explosion of the dance to appear. The journey into the aliveness of sensation & the fall into gravity's embrace.
The combination of such practices with sacred ritual, including cacao, shamanic journeying and creative writing portals, is deeply potent.
We will hold space for the Feminine to appear as it desires. Free from rules, WE DANCE.
About The Location …
Held by the beauty of Tierra Cosmica, a humble centre in service to nourishment in all ways. We will journey here cradled by its softness & dedicated attention to detail while having exclusive access to their Temple, land & swimming pool. This centre gratefully looks out on a lush valley with small fincas & fruit orchards scattered around, flanked by hills dotted with cork oaks & pines. The rich landscape of the valley is formed by the presence of water, that has attracted small farmers since ancient times.
The charming, whitewashed village of Monda is a 15-minute walk away, set in the Sierra de las Nieves biosphere: a beautiful mountainous area with many streams & forests – a lesser-known side of Andalucia. Monda offers small shop and a few nice restaurants & just a short walk away from the gates of Tierra you can find a trail through a dry riverbed, leading to a beautiful spring with fresh water running abundantly all year round.
We will enjoy a delicious plant-based menu from PachaMama foods, using only local Spanish, seasonal fresh produce. This food nurtures not only the body but aims at supporting the retreat content by offering a wide range of flavours, colours, textures and nutrients, to really awaken all the senses. All our meals are 100% organic, completely free of refined and processed ingredients. Between meals, we offer a generous fruit bowl as well as a tea bar with a selection of hand-blended herbal teas, which are always available.
Words on the Feminine Current
🌹
The light of the womb is longing for our full attention, SHE is waiting patiently to illuminate those parts of ourselves we have abandoned & exiled, pleading to awaken the heart & pour miracles into being. Her inner waters have a current, her soul a compass & we must bow listening, willing to open. She seeks to be in rhythm, moist with ideas, ripe in abundance, her essence begging to be seen, reclaimed & held in the highest forms of love.
🌹
She longs to know herself in her wholeness, in her entirety with no parts abandoned or exiled. She wants to be seen & reclaimed, held in love by her own tender bones.
Just like a stream knows its banks, just like the clouds fill the sky & just like thunder knows it'll break into sound, we too have this inner intelligence to know the way home. There's no hiding in the natural world, no shaming or lack of pleasure, no fight for beauty. Nature already is, within itself, undeniably magnetic, aligned & harmonious.
SHE is waiting for us to land fully in our innate wholeness to receive the whispers of home, to open & surrender into action, to acquire the courage to meet what's being asked of us in this tenderly fragile time on Earth.
Surrender to the mysteries adorning creations' majestic motion.

WHAT OUR PARTICIPANTS SAY:
“The most skilled space holders are the ones that continuously guide you back to yourself - I felt this coming home every time I was guided by Chelan - she holds space in such a beautifully authentic, curious, playful, tender & completely non-judgemental way. I was so moved by her practices, that I’m actually really struggling to put words to the experience. I felt completely held in her presence, but also completely free to land in my own unique moving experience. I am so grateful I got to be led by you on this training Chelan & receive your wisdom too, thank you thank you thank you ”
“Jiya has a special gift for working with and guiding people through a spiritual, physical and mental training program. She combines professionalism and fun in her teaching and accepts everyone as an equal student. During the training, Julia demonstrated her strengths as a compassionate, caring individual who has strong leadership and program development skills. I am grateful to have had the experience to learn from and build a relationship with Julia. I strongly recommend her as a teacher and know that her students will gain a better understanding of yoga and peace by working with her.”
“Thank you for being such an unexpected gift to walk into our container & carry it with such earthly embodiment. So safe and yet firm. Permission giving & directive. A true living contrast with so much inner & outer beauty. I am inspired by your bold transmission & your ability to help me meet myself in ways i can easily forget through default & protection. You took me straight to my flesh, hips, pussy & throat. Going into my primitive nature like this has helped me to be where i am today. You helped me to meet my relationship with perception & question where i feed my own sense of separation allowed me space to dance & shake it out & live where i can speak the most. But most of all, you helped me to speak by speaking so fiercely yourself & mirroring so much of whats possible if i take up space & come out of the cocoon after many years of pain. Owning the artist, muse & teacher in me is not easy & you make it look so. We did not get to speak much in depth after all but the impact of a few looks & words were enough to help me get to the end of such a milestone in my life. Thank you for your power, grace, openness & love.

“Jiya is a true inspiration and a great listener. I contacted Jiya to help me find my way back to self love and to be more aligned with my higher self. She constantly reminded me that all answers are inside of me. Jiya helped me identify my core beliefs and made me understand that a lot of my thoughts & actions was based out of fear. So from self doubt and bad self talk I now know that I’m worthy to be loved. Jiya has the ability to push me back to my true self. I now know that I am enough. I’m so so grateful for all of your support, guidance and wisdom. Thank you so much Jiya for believing in me”
“She is a teacher who guided me to see things that were within me all along. Because of this approach to teaching I leant things that did not just stop at the yoga training but they have also stayed with me back home. Her dedication, truth and honesty is such a gift to be in the company of. She has such a vast amount of experience and knowledge and I am so grateful that she shares this with the world!”
