The Mystical Mother Gathering

  • 13195 Northwest McNamee Road Portland, OR, 97231 United States (map)
 

Welcome to Mystical Mother Gathering!

Come join us for a magical day filled with creativity, embodiment, REST, and REPLENISHMENT (for your body, soul, and heart).

The Mystical Mother Gathering (complete with dance, ceremony, sauna, hot tub, pool, cacao, and a wellness elixir bar) is for you if you desire:

  • a total system reset — to take a sacred pause from the everyday demands of your life and tend to your own well being

  • support to create more joy, flow, and softness in your mothering

  • more connection with your body and womb in your daily life

  • to share food, drink, dance, and soul in community with like-hearted mommas

We’ve curated each session of this full day event to be a time for you to explore your own intuitive healing wisdom, and play with the ancient modalities of locally acclaimed healing professionals.

You’ll return to your home front from this gathering, equipped with practical ways to weave spiritual and embodiment practices into your daily life, as a momma. While also feeling RADICALLY nourished from getting to move your body, create beauty, and laugh with other sisters.

This is a portal to meet again your aliveness and get grounded, both of which you’ll carry back to your world of mothering.


Whether you're a new mom or a seasoned one, this event is for you.

She holds a BFA in Dance with a minor in Psychology from New York University, and is a 300 hour licensed Mind Body Dancer® yoga teacher under the direction of TaraMarie Perri.
