JEN ABBOTT-TILLOU
Breath • Ceremony • Medicine
Each session is tailored to the individual. Ceremonies may not fall exactly into the categories defined below. All offerings can be experienced one-on-one, with a partner, or in a small group.
EMBODIED KNOWING
An intuitively guided co-creation to include exploration of the four parts of self: physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual. Creating a “safe container” with mindful intention, smudging, invocation; and working with a wide array of modalities which may include guided breathwork and meditation, sound bowls, music, manual therapy, one is gently supported into a deep state of conscious relaxation. This allows access to subconscious and spiritual truth helping to identify blocks and allow for healing/change. The four parts of self begin to communicate as a balanced team allowing access to one's Inner Wisdom. These sessions facilitate the experience of “Embodied Knowing” and often feel like a nervous system reset.
60–90 minutes
shamanic BREATHWORK
This 3 part journey includes; setting a container with mindfulness, ritual and sharing (guidelines,safety,boundaries, intentions, instructions,etc). This is followed by invocation, drumming and conscious rhythmic breathing with a curated chakra-attuned music set which facilitates participants to enter a naturally altered state (accessing our organic psychedelic mind without the need for substances). Old patterns, emotions, addictions and insights can surface, be seen and felt. Release, catharsis, embodied wisdom and deep peace may all be experienced within one breathwork session. The activating breathing itself usually does not take more than 10-15 minutes to bring participants into their hour plus journey. The ceremony is followed by art processing (sketching your impressions with pastels) and integration through sharing, journaling, and conversation.
Approximately 3 hours
ELEMENTAL HEALING
Nature Meditation/Grounding
Shinrin Yoku or Forest Bathing (popularized in the 1980s) is the Japanese healing art of taking in the forest through all five senses. These sessions include a guided experience of grounding in nature and accessing the deep healing wisdom of the forest / rivers / plants / Mother Earth and the 4 elements of Earth / Air / Water / Fire. Guidance and facilitation, along with solitude in Nature, followed with art processing/journaling and integration/conversation. Held on 40+ private acres in Litchfield, CT, or a location of your choice.
Approximately 2 hours
PROGRAM

Sessions include education and embodied experience of: The four parts of self, Self-Compassion, Cycle of Transformation, Awareness, The Truce, Old Patterns, The Shadow, and Spirit-Led. Journaling and homework are part of this program.
