CYCLICAL LIVING
ORIENT TO NATURE'S SACRED RHYTHMS
All of life is a sacred dance between the polarities of light and dark, expansion and contraction, giving and receiving, movement and stillness.
You rise to greet the light of day and lie down to rest in the dark of night. Breathing in, your heart rate quickens, breathing out it slows.
Nature is cyclical, yet many of us have forgotten the inherent ebb and flow of life and move through our days under great pressure, ever quickening speed, and overstimulation.
Orienting to nature's rhythms supports you to bring clarity, ease and flow into your life and awaken within you a sacred dimension of existence!
WHY ORIENT TO NATURE'S RHYTHMS?
Under industrial growth society (aka. colonial capitalism), we have learned to follow chronological time and experience life in a linear, objective fashion. This orientation propels us toward unchecked accumulation, productivity, urgency and external growth while ignoring the necessity to counter such movement toward greater harmony.
This mode of being dissociates us from the web of life by cutting us off from embodied wisdom rooted in natural rhythms. The cost of our collective forgetting manifests as disconnection and unwellness in our personal, social, political and ecological contexts.
In the past, however, when we lived in close relationship to nature, time was perceived as cyclical. Life was steeped in place-based relationality, experience was informed by seasonal rhythms, knowledge was shaped by encounters with more-than-human-kin, and intution was strengthened through conversations with the natural world.
Orienting to nature's rhythms supports us to be in right relationship with the wider web of our relationships because it nurtures embodied wisdom and intuitive ways of being that support our ability to listen deeply and live in balance.

MEET YOUR GUIDE
Greetings, my name is Jessica Cudney and it’s my great honor to be your guide on this sacred journey of reclamation, reconnection and remembrance as you weave yourself back into kinship with the living world.
I’m an eco-somatic practitioner, multidisciplinary artist, nature spirituality guide and transformational life coach. I’ve been on the path of reclaiming ancestral earth-rooted wisdom for over a decade.
I live to sow the seeds of a life-giving culture that only future generations will know. I see it as my sacred responsibility to live as beautifully and boldly as I can in service to earth as an expression of my indebtedness, love and devotion to this precious existence.
I believe that earth is calling to humanity to rise and radically re-imagine our world and reclaim our purpose in service to planetary healing.

THE SACRED GROVE
A Sacred Grove is a vortex of being & becoming. Sacred Groves were temples and places of sanctuary and ritual for the Indo-European tribes in pre-Christian times: the Germanic nimidas, Celtic nemeton, Latin nemus, Old Irish nemed or fiodh-neamheadh. The core meaning of the root word is “sacred.” The Celts, in general, did not build temples, but rather practiced their spirituality in sacred groves or nemetons which were abodes of dieties. Sacred Groves have been found throughout the world in various cultures across time.
There was a time when my Gaelic ancestors gathered in Sacred Groves to worship the magic and mystery of the cosmos. A place of sanctuary to commune with the ancestors, spirits and deities of the land. A place where the human world intersected with the divine and Otherworld. Although we are living in different times and with new technologies, we are being called to remember and reclaim our relationship to the natural world.
