Feminine Embodiment & Sensual Rebirth Retreat
St Nectan’s Glen, Cornwall, 15-17 May, New Moon
THIS RETREAT HAS NOW BEEN CANCELLED.
Awaken Your Feminine Sensuality
Are you ready to reawaken your primal feminine sensuality — to feel alive, radiant, and deeply connected to your body and spirit?
This retreat is an invitation to step into a sacred sanctuary of the feminine, held within the magical landscape of St Nectan’s Glen at the New Moon, under the watchful light of Venus, the Goddess of Love, radiance, and pleasure.
Rising higher in the western sky as the evening star just after sunset from 1 March through to the New Moon in Taurus on 16 May, Venus will act as a luminous beacon, guiding us to open to love, embodiment, and grounded pleasure.
Nestled at the top of the Glen overlooking the mossy trees, flowing waters, and sacred stillness of the Glen, you will be guided to awaken your sensual essence, nourish your body and soul, and ignite the deep life force that flows within you.
As your primal life force comes alive, you reconnect with your inner truth, passion, and desire — feeling vitality ripple through every aspect of your life: creativity, relationships, health, and purpose.
This retreat is your portal to return to your radiant feminine power, to feel fully embodied, and to carry the magic of sensual living into your everyday world.
Retreat Themes
In this nourishing weekend Retreat we invite you to deepen your connection and devotion to your feminine sensuality and authentic expression. We invite you to:
-
Sacred Sensuality & Feminine Embodiment
Reconnect with your body, voice, and feminine presence through movement, ritual, and playful practices that awaken your sensual aliveness. -
Primal Life-Force & Sensual Awakening
Explore and reawaken the deep sensual life force within — your primal life-force that fuels creativity, confidence, and pleasure. -
Yoni Gateway Activation & Inner Lover Connection
Practices to open the sacred gateway of your feminine essence, helping you connect with your inner lover, your feminine and masculine pathways, awaken pleasure pathways, and fully inhabit your sensual, embodied self. -
Deep Connection with Nature, the New Moon & Venus
Align with the rhythms of the land, water, and lunar cycle. Develop intimacy with your sensuality as it mirrors the beauty and vitality of the natural world. -
Release & Alchemy through Love
Let go of old fears, limiting stories, and ancestral patterns, allowing them to be transformed through the sacred energy of Eros’ love and the New Moon’s regenerative power. -
Joyful Embodiment Through the Senses
Explore playful and enlivening ways to awaken joy, pleasure, and vitality through touch, sight, sound, smell, and taste. -
Sisterhood & Shared Awakening
Experience the love and support of your sisters as we awaken, rise, and embody our feminine power together in sacred container.
Eros
‘The process of awakening Eros is an exploration of the powerful life force that is our true nature that ignites the flow of our love and passion, the source of our creativity and authentic expression.’
What To Expect
- Yoni Gateway Activation & Inner Lover Connection — guided practices to awaken sensuality, connect with your inner lover, and embody your sensual, feminine power.
- Deepen intimacy with your sensuality and the natural world through movement, ritual, and immersive connection with St Nectan’s Glen.
- Release old fears, stories, and ancestral patterns in ceremony and embodied practice, alchemised through Eros’ love and the New Moon’s regenerative energy.
- Awaken joy and pleasure in your being using playful, multisensory experiences that engage touch, sight, sound, smell, and taste.
- Guided embodied movement, ecstatic dance, and somatic practices to liberate life-force, open expression, and celebrate feminine vitality.
- Water rituals & blessings at the sacred waterfall to support cleansing, release, and symbolic rebirth.
- Womb opening practices, breathwork, sound healing, and voice activation to reclaim creative, sensual, and embodied power.
- Sacred sharing circles, journaling, reflection, and integration to anchor insights, intentions, and transformation.
- Space for rest, reflection, and receiving — allowing the inner and outer flow of the retreat to be fully experienced.
You may be carrying old fears, shame, numbness, or the weight of life transitions such as peri-menopause, health challenges, or relationship struggles. These can dim your light and suppress your sensual expression.
In this sacred container, you will be lovingly supported to release and alchemise what no longer serves you, opening to freedom, confidence, and the joy of your feminine sensual embodiment.
This retreat offers a sacred ceremonial and feminine embodiment space where sensual awareness, life-force energy, and heart–womb–yoni connection are explored gently and respectfully within a safe and held container. It is not a structured sacred sexuality or eros temple environment.
Benefits of the Retreat
- Feel confident to express your sexuality and sensuality as you awaken the passion of your inner Eros.
- Nurture self-confidence and trust in your body’s wisdom and intuition.
- Develop a loving and intimate relationship with yourself, allowing the fullest expression of your feminine sensuality
- Express yourself freely and unapologetically, releasing shame or guilt.
- Awaken your inner feminine magic and radiant magnetism, naturally attracting what your soul desires.
- Feel safe and confident in your own skin, trusting your body as a powerful intuitive guide.
- Deepen your connection with the sacredness of life, honouring your body, nature, and spirit as one.
‘When we express ourselves from a space of inner magic the universe responds to our magnetic radiance by giving us more opportunities to feel joyful and alive.’
Our sexual energy is our primal life force – we feel alive and full of love’s vibrancy. We feel turned on by life, and we become effortless flow in motion, open to receiving the abundance of the universe that is magnetically drawing inspiration, people, opportunities to us. Eros is life’s raw energy, coursing through our veins. She awakens our inner lover, passion and power of creativity.
Sacred Sensuality & Rose Lineage
In the ancient temples of Isis and Hathor, and within the Rose Lineage of Mary Magdalene and Mother Mary, the feminine path was one of devotion, love, and embodied presence within the sacred heart. Venus, as she journeys around the Earth creating the five-petalled rose, mirrors our own path of returning to the heart and remembering the beauty and wisdom of our feminine essence.
This retreat gently invites you to reconnect with your sensual life-force and inner lover through the harmonious dance of the feminine and masculine within. Held in a safe and nurturing ceremonial space, we focus on embodying sensual power, devotion, and connection with the Divine through presence, nature, and the loving energies of the Great Mother.
Over these two days, you will be supported by the gentle presence of Isis, Hathor, Mary Magdalene and Mother Mary, remembering what it means to live in flow with your sacred feminine energy and return to a state of vitality, love, inner harmony and free expression.

About Sonraya
My journey with the Sacred Feminine has been a deep and rich experience and continues to offer me opportunities for further soul embodiment and expression. My spiritual work with women has also been my focus for more than 25 years, holding space and a loving heart to help women welcome themselves home to their true sacred beauty and power. It is a journey of remembrance and I love to weave and create sacred space to help you do just that. I am a catalyst for change co-creating alchemy with spirit, helping you to transform and awaken you to your golden heart centred self, grounded and rooted in truth.
I have been initiated as High Priestess of the Goddess through a 2 year training course back in 2000 which re-ignited my love of the Earth and my journey to awaken the Sacred Feminine within me and others. This has been a journey to heal the wounds of the feminine and also my masculine and I continue to journey ever deeper into sacred union with myself and Great Spirit. I am privileged to be a channel for Divine inspiration and multi-dimensional healing with a passion to awaken and facilitate the beautiful weaving of sacred unity within others.
