The Unseen River
A mythical reflective space for women who went through abortions or miscarriages

This session is for women who have experienced miscarriages or abortions and are seeking a compassionate space to honor their loss, reflect on their journey, and deepen their integration process. It is also for those who recognize the profound wisdom held within myths and believe these timeless stories can open a doorway to the soul, offering insight and transformation.
By weaving personal experiences with mythological understanding, this session creates a sacred space for restoration, truth, and soulful connection.
Your event may be as recent as yesterday or as ancient as time itself, woven into the fabric of your ancestral narrative. This space is open to all women, inviting them to reflect, integrate, and embrace their stories.
This session is thoughtfully designed to provide a safe and nurturing environment for integration and reflection based on applied mythology:
​
• Storytelling and Symbolic Interpretation: Explore the wisdom of myths, with a focus on the tale of the Lyrebird, to uncover meaningful insights and create connections to personal experiences.
​
• Journaling and Reflection: Engage with journaling prompts and dedicate time to quiet, introspective reflection to process thoughts and emotions.
​
• Befriending Your Story: Be seen, heard, and acknowledged in a supportive space, fostering a deeper connection to your story.
• Healing Activities: Participate in gentle activities and invitations that support emotional and spiritual restoration, allowing space for integration and growth.

Session Content
Befriending Our Story
Transformation happens when we acknowledge the depth of our scars and honor its presence in our soul. By integrating these experiences into our story, we create space for restoration, understanding, and growth. To truly integrate is to embrace the fullness of our journey, allowing our pain to transform into wisdom and connection with the essence of who we are.

What You Will Gain
• A nurturing space for you to honor your loss, feel acknowledged, and connect with others in a supportive community.
• Insights from storytelling and mythological symbols to help you integrate your experiences into your soul’s narrative.
• Practical tools for self-reflection and healing through journaling, guided prompts, and gentle activities.
• A deeper connection to yourself and the transformative wisdom in myths, offering comfort and growth.
Myths carry the ancient whispers of women who have walked before us, their wisdom waiting to be heard. When we come together to listen, share, and heal, we honor their stories and, in turn, celebrate ourselves. Join us in this session to befriend your own story, reflect on the cycles of Life-Death-Life, and embrace the transformative power of these ancient truths and symbols as they guide you through your personal journey of becoming.
