Juliet
Rose held the most safe and sacred space, enabling us to feel secure , to truly relax, open, and be unafraid to look inside the landscape of our inner world….to ask questions without demanding answers of our deepest inner feelings longings hopes desires. Having been quite nervous on the way to the Fort, within moments of arriving I felt grounded , curious about the journey and unafraid to share. The molecules within began to bounce, talk to each other, so that I felt integrated and at one with the world outside whilst connected to self, no sense of “ otherness” , immersed in the beauty of nature. Feet planted on warm safe solid Mother Earth. Insides smiling at the breathtaking beauty of the earth the air the sky the sea that surrounded us . A fire in my belly kindled, stoked..freeing flowing grateful. The surroundings so incredibly beautiful…the ice cold morning sea swims the warming sauna, the time the space to reflect. The incredibly comfortable luxurious bed ! The breathtakingly incredible plant based food with which we were nourished heart soul and body. Walking barefoot in the grass, breathing deeply of the pure air, eyes wide at the vast sky, beckoning to possibilities for growth , repair , healing energy.
 All the journeys and practices Rose led us into onto and beyond I am so grateful for , and as I sit now in the urban landscape of the city , I can still access those feelings of wonderment openness gratitude and love. Rose led us on journeys which opened my heart, soul, body, holding a space within which everything was allowed and welcome. Mindful at all times of the deep emotions these practices can bring up, Rose led with such beautiful tenderness, and held us in a place of reassurance and safety. Following these at times very moving experiences she took great care to help us come back to ourselves,  closing with the warmest nurturing ceremony during which we were able to wrap and encircle ourselves with protective light. I was constantly surprised and grateful for all the small touches , gifts given with such gentleness…from crystals to dream seed cards. After just two nights and three days I felt as if I had been in her presence for an incalculable amount of time. A space carved out of time in the beauty of nature and human embrace. Thank you Rose Â
