Free Intro to SERPENT SANCTUARY- holding those who hold others: a 3-months programme supporting women* space holders

Join me for a free intro session to the Serpent Sanctuary-

holding those who hold others... 3-months online group programme that holds women* (including NB & genderqueer folks) who hold space for others and who find themselves in times of change & transformation.

The group journey begins on 26th of JUNE 2025

INTRO SESSION 25th of June at 6.30pm UK time! 

As seasoned facilitators we hold and support many on their path. But who is holding us?

I believe we need strong circles of support and holding, especially if we are navigating transition ourselves.

The Serpent Sanctuary is a space where you are held and we are holding each other, while we are also held and supported by the wisdom of the Serpent- the most potent medicine for times of change that I know.

Throughout our time together, we tune into SNAKE MEDICINE- the profound guidance of the Serpent, to navigate times of transition, so you can emerge renewed nourished and empowered.
The Serpent is a potent symbol for Transformation & Renewal and the cycle of Death & Rebirth.

Snake encourages us to let go outdated beliefs, patterns, relationships or work that we’ve outgrown.

When we cling to what no longer inspires or support us, we lose vitality—our “shimmering skin.”

This INTRO SESSION is an invitation to learn about Snake Medicine and THE SERPENT SANCTUARY, connect with serpent symbolism through an illuminating illustrated talk & a Q&A.

Learn what Snake Medicine is all about & what snakes can teach us for our lives!
Snakes are creatures of the threshold and often associated with initiation, transformation, healing, sexuality and sensuality and creativity.

As we learn to navigate the many challenges of our times and in our own lives, we can tune into the energy of snakes for guidance.
Snakes are masters of residing in the void, shedding their skins and creating themselves anew.
Snake also has a lot to teach us about embodiment: connecting with love to our bodies, inhabiting our skin, deep listening, resting & embodied intuition...
Come join us and open to the wisdom of the snakes!

WHAT IS SNAKE MEDICINE?

Snake Medicine firstly is all that we can learn from actual snakes: their appearance and behaviour such as shedding, hunting, resting and cyclical living, as well as from the symbolism of the Serpent as found all over the globe and the fact that Snake has been revered for millennia before being vilified and demonised.

There are many ways we can engage with Snake Medicine: it could be through observing snake’s process of shedding, the way they are built, sense and navigate their habitat or how they behave when threatened, as well as learning about how Serpent has been honoured and associated with themes of sexuality, fertility, healing, guardianship, regeneration, death and rebirth and cyclical living for thousands of years.

Snake Medicine helps us to...

• Connect with our gut instincts & embody our wild, sensual & sexual nature
  
  
• Live more harmonically with our bodies’ cycles & rhythms
  
  
• Face our fears & learn to set good boundaries
  
  
• Live with more presence & embrace significant changes with power
  
  
• Lean into rest and the rhythms of life rather than stay in fixing & doing mode
  
  
• Connect with our creative life force energy and ecstatic nature
  
  
• Tap into the mystery of life and our own, individual spiritual

Come join me for this Intro to Snake medicine and learn how Serpent can support you in your life!

This Free intro introduces also the SERPENT SANCTUARY- a 3-months online group programme that holds women* (including NB & genderqueer folks) who hold space for others and who find themselves in times of change & transformation- starting 26th of June 

In the SERPENT SANCTUARY we explore SERPENT'S invitation to...

* cultivate sacred rest, even if this feels uncomfortable

* create powerful boundaries and discernment around our energy and what’s precious to us

* cultivate deep embodiment and strong grounding

* activate and embrace pleasure, our sensuality & sexuality

* shed rigidity and become more flexible and adaptable

* practice self compassion and presence in our bodies and with what IS

There is soo much we can learn from Snakes and the symbolism of the Serpent !
You can read more about Snake Medicine HERE.

With the SERPENT SANCTUARY I would like to offer you a strong, supportive container to be held within a group of other women* to navigate this times of change with the guidance of Snake Medicine.

This programme offers you space to breathe, to be held in community and to dive deeply into the teachings and mysteries of Snake Medicine to support you through your unique change and transition.

The programme is designed in a spacious way with 2x 2 hour online sessions per months and in-between group support (includes 3x 1 hour group integration sessions spread over the three months.)

Additionally you receive a one to one Snake Medicine guidance session with me also which you can take at any time during the course.

As we journey together through the 3 months, we will dive deep into six Snake Medicine teachings that bring guidance, support and nourishment as we move through transition, initiation and metamorphosis.

The Serpent Sanctuary is a place we come together to be, to breathe, to renew & be nourished….a space we gather, share, learn, dream, weave, see and are seen...

Who is the Serpent Sanctuary for?

The Serpent Sanctuary is for experienced space holders and facilitators who work with others, either one to one or in groups, or both who find themselves in a time of change.

I particularly invite those who work in the fields of embodiment, sexuality, creativity & therapy/counselling such as bodyworkers, somatic facilitators, coaches, counsellors & therapists.
This programme is for women, genderqueer or NB (AFAB) facilitators.

The Serpent Sanctuary is for you if you….

* have lost meaning or your zest for life or work and are not sure what needs to change or happen next…

* crave being held in a supportive space where you have permission to just be your uncensored self

* experience burnout or exhaustion and feel the need to reorient your life or work

* have entered a new life phase such as motherhood, peri-menopause, menopause or post-menopause and are navigating these changes

* long for not always holding so much on your own, but also being held

* are going through a period of grief after a bereavement or loss

* are facing a health crisis or have received a diagnosis around your body, mental health and are navigating this

* have moved location or country or are planning to do so

* instinctively know that parts of your old life is coming to an end, but your cannot see a new direction yet

Prerequisite:

* You are an experienced space holder/ facilitator (3years +)

* You have a good level of understanding of nervous system regulation and have developed ways to support yourself

* You have experience in some form of somatic/ embodiment work and are happy to engage in exercises

* You can create space in your life so that this programme can really support and nourish you

* You are willing to let yourself be supported by me and others and also show up and engage in the group

*This programme includes spiritual practices such as a shamanic journeying, so an openness and willingness with this is a pre-requisite.

Maybe Snake has already shown up in your life through dreams or personal encounters. Maybe you are simply curious about Snake Medicine. I trust you found your way here nudged by Snake….

WELCOME to the SNAKE SANCTUARY!

About me, Eva Weaver

I have been called on the path of the Snake for many years.
My passion and deep joy is to support and hold women, NB & genderqueer folks who hold space for others through times of transition with the potent medicine of change through Rites of Passage rituals, embodied ceremonies, and offers like the SERPENT SANCTUARY.

I am an author, coach, bodyworker & snake medicine guide.

My lifelong interest in embodiment, creativity and the power of the erotic has led me to train as an art psychotherapist, breathwork practitioner, firewalk instructor and eventually as a sexological bodyworker.

Now, I am weaving the creative, embodied and erotic into powerful offerings, be it through Writing from the Body, Back to Sex coaching, or my Snake Medicine offers such as my 8-week EMBODYING the SNAKE programme, individual Snake Medicine guidance sessions and empowering Rites of Passage Rituals. I am also in training with my beautiful Royal Python Syd, my snake companion of seven years and my late snake Myst, who still teaches from the beyond. I have been fascinated by snakes all of my life and connect strongly with the snake priestessing lineage of ancient Greece and Egypt.

I love deepening my exploration into Snake Medicine and how this ancient medicine is so relevant for these times. I have been running workshop and retreats for over thirty years, both in the UK and internationally and I currently live between the South of France and my home Phoenix Nest near Brighton from which I run one to one immersions & Rites of Passage retreats.

Why work with me?

My life has never been linear and I have re-invented myself many times over.
If I know anything, it is that life changes continuously and the more we surrender to its changes, the easier we flow.

I've lived in different countries and languages and I have worked for ten years in adult mental health services as an art psychotherapist, mainly with groups. I love working in small groups and the magic, support, alchemy and support that can be fostered there!

My work is trauma informed.
I have learned directly from my royal pythons Syd & Myst over the past seven years.

I hold a wealth of powerful tools that can support and help cultivate embodiment, pleasure, presence& transformation.
Mainly, I bring my colourful and rich life experience to my work.

I would love to welcome you to the SERPENT SANCTUARY!

Transwomen are warmly welcome.

Please note:
Although there are never completely ‘safe’ spaces, I can guarantee I will do everything I can to provide a non-judgmental, trauma informed and compassionate space.
Feelings and expression of grief, joy, confusion, frustration, anger, ecstasy… our full spectrum is welcome in the Sanctuary. There are several circles of support and holding in this programme:
As a facilitator I am holding and facilitating the group, the calls, the Whattsapp group and the one to one sessions.
As a group field we are holding one another.
And… we are supported by the potent practices and wisdom of Snake Medicine and by individual snake medicine allies you will receive and work with throughout the time, as well as our spiritual ‘teams’-whoever you would like to call in for support: benevolent ancestors, angels, the Great Serpent….

The Serpent Sanctuary Programme is designed to be transformative and therapeutic, but is not a substitute for therapy.

If you are in an acute mental health crisis or have a history of schizophrenia, extreme dissociation, or untreated PTSD, this programme might not be suitable at this time.
Please feel free to reach out to discuss any concerns.
I am committed to holding a safe, inclusive, and trauma-informed space. LGBTQI+ folks are especially welcome.
