Maya Moon Massage
An Afternoon Retreat
Honoring The Womb & New Moon
SUNDAY MAY 1 | 2 - 5pm | The Sanctuary | Portsmouth, RI
PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR THIS EVENT - REGISTER HERE
This begins the first of our monthly self-care gatherings. Each month between the New and Full Moon cycles we will gather for ceremony and hands on self-care practices to nourish and welcome inner resiliency. We have intentionally chosen to gather this month on the New Moon leading us to Mothers Day, as the feminine energies and our monthly cycle, will flow with this lunar guidance, the perfect time for new beginnings and setting intentions.
It is in the understanding of many of our ancient cultures that true health and balance within our Being rests in the harmony of our internal organs and energy systems.
Did you know that you can learn how to care for your own womb and reproductive system through hands on massage and healing techniques and therapies? That your cycle and fertility has its own wisdom just like you and true resiliency begins as we open and create inner relationships with ourselves. Mayan Abdominal Massage is the perfect gateway to this innate wisdom within each of us.
Your afternoon retreat will open with a warm cup of ceremonial cacao to gently melt your mental clutter, open your heart and settle you deeply into the nurturing arms of sacred community and healing space.
Nola will then guide us through an informative introductory self-care abdominal massage, focused upon our wombs and the inherent wisdom ready to connect with you from within. Incorporating techniques and wisdom rooting from the traditions of Taoist and Mayan abdominal therapies.
We will then apply home-made and herbal infused castor oil packs upon our bellies with gentle heat and lay to receive profound healing energies and a guided journey to our sacred core and original essence.
To close we will sip our hormone balancing cacao husk tea with hibiscus + rose spice and light snacks we bring as a community to share together. This will be a time to share, to release and to welcome in through a group of fierce, graceful and vulnerable feminine voices. To support and find similarity in all of our journeys and bring any shadows to the light together. This group is not limited to women, yet in full support of the rising feminine awakening upon this planet.
You will leave this afternoon retreat rejuvenated, inspired and transformed, with new skills in your pocket and a whole lotta love in your heart.

Is uterine massage recommended for all women?
Almost every woman, including those who have had hysterectomies, can benefit greatly from uterine massage through improved circulation, lymphatic drainage, and a decrease in the formation of scar tissue.
Uterine massage is not performed: 1) during menstrual bleeding; 2) within the first 6 weeks following a normal vaginal delivery or the first 3 months after a c-section; 3) for a woman using an IUD for birth control; 4) if cancer is present or suspected anywhere in the pelvis, or the client is undergoing chemotherapy for this condition; 5) during the first trimester of pregnancy; or 6) hiatal hernia - gentle touch only.
