Marlies Myoku Cocheret ~ Women’s Satsang ‘Woman Flowering’ (for Women Only)

Europeans, please note that due to the clocks changing in the US on Sun March 12, but not yet in Europe, the time difference is 1 hour less than usual. Therefore this event starts at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 4pm UK / 5pm CET.

Dear Woman,

You are wide-open and eternally free space filled with potentiality and love. That is it! Very simple. Your beautiful female body rests and is held within that silent-space. Your body is strong, lush and precious – like a flower. Beauty! We need to care for that beauty so that the light that we are shines brightly. It takes silence, deep listening and tender hands to open the petals of your flower one by one.

During this satsang, we enter sacred space together. We begin in silence and are nourished by our precious nature, our home ground, which I call the Great Her. This is our foundation …. our soil, the source of our vitality. Through meditation, sharing, and gentle movement, we allow ourselves to be fully touched by the all of you – your physicality, psychology, felt sense, emotions, thinking and being. Then, in surrender we enter the mystery. We are taken by deliciousness, power and aliveness. There is an utter welcoming of all of you – your humanity and your divinity. The perfect soil for Woman Flowering!

Come and join this adventure!

Special Note from Marlies:

‘For my women events, I work best with cisgender women. Working with transgender women is outside my area of expertise. I have a colleague who is well experienced in this field that I am happy to refer transgender women to.’ – Marlies

ÒWith Adya, the bottom fell out. I deeply knew I am not this body, mind, thought, psyche, and I am also all these things as well. There was no in and/or out. All is One.Ó
