The Rose Temple: A Midsummer Nights Dreaming

For a Heart fulfilling, Body nourishing, Soul connecting weekend… This is SO much more than a Temple Weekend… 

This is your learning discovery, your unfolding, your blossoming of your sensuality on the path of relating

You long for deeper & more alive connection 

To Yourself

To Your Heart Tribe

To Your Sacred Flow of Life

Do you want connection where you feel rooted in your body, in your heart truth, in your sexual sovereignty?

This space is held for your nervous system to blossom at the pace that's uniquely right for YOU.

Come to a space with no expectation, no pressure to do anything or be anything more than what you are in each moment.🌹Yes i truly mean there is NO expectation to show up in any particular way at any point in this weekend, no pressure to be “ready to dive in Temple free space” or be intimate with others in any way, we learn and embody staying true to what's right for us moment to moment. 

Throughout this weekend we build our foundations for connection slowly... Beginning with yourself, your nervous system, feeling into your expression of your own eros. .. From feeling deeply anchored in your body, heart & eros it creates space to make choices that are aligned with your in the moment truth. 

There are no completely “safe” environments, we can only cultivate more safety from within to meet the outside world with greater capacity, and coming to a held space that supports our nervous system to navigate the world of relating with greater space and awareness internally supports our intergrated development in relating. 

Come immerse yourself in the wild beauty of South Devon, we embark on a magickal adventure together within A Midsummer Nights Dreaming…

To gather with tribe who desire to embody their sensuality deeper, to feel the current of life awakening, moving through their entire being and guiding their way on the path of intimacy…

To drink in the richness of what truth of sensuality 

To feel the whole group field alive with heart & body's truth - whether pretty, wild or ugly 

Guided to embody what is alive for you moment to moment, and moving with it as a way of being, for expression, liberation, discovery, and regulation. 

Supporting your way to staying connected to your body & heart's truth in the journey of connection

At The Rose Temple, we weave a culture of care, gentleness, and deep attunement to support your growth at a steady pace as foundational within the space.
Embodied listening of your body is embedded within the entire journey, this is for you to know yourself deeper, know your edges clearer, and deeper understanding of what arises for you in connection. 

Through embodiment practices and somatic tracking as the foundation, we explore how to meet our nervous system responses with authentic movement and expression as a means for resourcing. Titrating closer to your centre, this is where discoveries and transformations that can unfold from. 

As we enter into the Temple Space, we arrive with a shared sense of:

-Deeper understanding of our nervous system, emotions, and inner landscape

-Reconnect to your eros in an authentic awakening of your vitality—not merely as our sexuality, but as an embodied expression of life, a grounding force, driving our power.

-Profound reverence for our body, truth, and worth 

-A grounded, connected group field from which true intimacy can emerge 

When you bring your FULL self, you invite others to do the same. Your vulnerability becomes a doorway into deep connection.

Together, we make choices from drinking in this mantra 
I know myself. 
I trust myself. 
I respect myself.

This is  a attuned space that is responding to the groups needs moment to moment, which results in a much deeper level of safety for each individual and the collective. 

Throughout the weekend, we’ll discover in ourselves:

• What awakens in your body when you feel safe, rooted, and sovereign?
• What is born in the space of desire, authentic expression and embodied awareness?
• What unfolds when you meet yourself with truth in your sensuality?
• What is the quality of connection when in alignment with our heart & body?

If you feel called but are financially constrained reach out ❤️

“Beautifully and safely created, a space was built that allowed emotions to be expressed, and joy to unfold as we journeyed together. I cannot speak highly enough of the way Anya and her team craft an event of such profound depth. I could be me, showing vulnerability and self in a way that I knew would be cherished and held.”

By anchoring deeper into your body and honoring your own life force first, we open the door to connection that is conscious, free, and aligned with your truth.

If you're interested in this weekend but can't make it, there is another temple weekend (but with different theme) in The Gables, Glastonbury 6-7th September 

​You are welcome to come as a couple and stay in your own coupled container with the practices shared - please inform me before the event to be aware of accommodating this when pairing/grouping in the space. 

Practices are led in a way to encourage non-heteronormative pairing (some exercises are also in 3's or 4's) so people can mix for platonic or intimate connections as suits their gender and sexual orientation. This also creates opportunity for the rich learning in exercises from your brother or sister, not just seeking those you're attracted to. In every exercise there is a scale of intimacy that offers options from a non-physical contact (just in loving energetic presence), witnessing, to more physically connected options.  There is never an expectation or pressure to connect intimately, or connect in any way that doesn't feel good for you during this weekend.

This is a trauma aware space, trained by Eshana Spiers and deepening training with The Field Facilitator trauma informed training. Facilitators and spaceholders assisting are available to support your needs during exercises and free space. We encourage self-responsibility to take care of yourself which is part of the learning of the space - empowering you to support yourself to integrate self-holding when out of the space.
