One day. . .One focus. . .9 guest facilitators. . .&. . .The medicine of the Rose. . .
You are invited to the Rose of Silence Retreat!
This is a day to claim some solitude. For at least a day, step away from all the tasks, caregiving, productivity, and anything else which draws you away from yourself and join Rose of Silence Retreat: Returning to Our Inner Sanctuary as Refuge from a World of Overwhelm. We begin at 9:30 AM CST and will wrap up before 5 PM.
This online retreat is intended to offer a flavor of contemplative practice to slow down, get curious and ease back into ourselves in a way that feels nourishing, not daunting. Together, we are coming back into resonance with the pulse and frequency of the heart of the Rose, which is pure love.
You’ll be invited to explore these practices to support your inner journey to silence: Holy Listening, Mindful Awareness, Sanctification of the Body Temple, Anointing, Self Love, Sound Alchemy, Sacred Space, Rose Medicine. . .and more.
Save the date if you’d like to come experience Intentional Distractions: Bringing the Sacred Into Your Everyday Life with me at 2 PM CST.
And don’t forget, it’s free to attend!
April 30
Join me Tuesday evening from 6-8 PM at the Groundfloor Club San Rafael for an initial meeting to determine interest and set intentions for an ongoing women’s group. Light snacks and refreshments will be available.
Come prepared for a fun and easeful exploration of what kinds of support you would like to see from the group. We’ll begin with a brief meditation, then go into an exercise on how to hold space for each other, introductions for each member to share about themselves and why they’re coming, a clean set-up for the discussion of how we’d like to see our group unfold, and close with a fun embodied exercise!
May 13-19
I’ll be holding a workshop called Shapes of Fierce Abundance on May 17 in-person and on Zoom as part of Dr. Amba Tobin’s Hybrid Abundance & Self-Worth Festival focused on empowerment, self-discovery & personal development for spiritual growth with community building. This is a hybrid event with Virtual Summit portions on Zoom and an in-person option from May 16-18 in Bodega Bay.
Speakers share their wisdom in small and larger increments of time. After the longer speakers, there will be 1:1 breakout rooms to follow the prompts given by the speakers. This is where the magic happens. Community building and getting to know someone in the group during the breakout rooms while having meaning full discussions. Movement and singing is involved both on or off screen.
The Virtual Summit on Zoom is 9 AM - 12 PM and 1-4 PM PDT from May 13-15.
The Hybrid Retreat on Zoom is virtually 1-4 PM on May 17-18 and In-Person 3 PM on May 16 through 11 AM on May 18 in Bodega Bay, CA!
May 24-26
I will be presenting my dissertation work “Deconstructing the Bowler Hat: Life as an Object Lesson in Dialogical Persona” at the Nineteenth International Conference on the Arts in Society at Hanyang University in Seoul, South Korea! My poster session is part of the 2024 Special Focus—Art for Sustenance.
Founded in 2000, the Arts in Society Research Network offers an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the role of the arts in society. It is a place for critical engagement, examination, and experimentation, developing ideas that connect the arts to their contexts in the world.
The Nineteenth International Conference on the Arts in Society calls for research addressing the following annual themes and special focus: Art for Sustenance; Pedagogies of the Arts; Arts Histories and Theories; New Media, Technology, and the Arts; and the Arts in Social, Political, and Community Life. The Arts in Society Research Network also supports a book imprint and a collection of journals.

Do you have a story inside of you that wants to come out?
Come playfully explore it at my upcoming workshop on Embodied Stories at the Groundfloor Club San Rafael on Friday, June 7 from 3-5 PM!
We all have stories living inside of us. They’re interwoven into our experience of life: they are how we come to know ourselves and how we come to know others, and they are also how others come to know us.
Sometimes we’re conscious of the stories that exist in our mind, but they don’t go anywhere else. Sometimes we want them to be written or shared with others. And then there are stories that are unconscious to us, and we live them whether we want to or not.
This workshop will be an opportunity to play with the stories coming up for you right now in your mind, in your body, and with others. You’ll be gently guided in reflecting on what’s present for you through writing, drawing, movement, group interactions and connections for deeper self-discovery and growth.
If you’d like to come express your stories, stay tuned for more details on the workshop!
Rebecca Eckland, Author, Athlete & Soul-based Coach in Reno, NV
“Kelsay helped me reconnect with my body and the story that resides within me. I not only discovered this deeply ingrained need for balance in all aspects of my life, but something unexpected surfaced: this incredible love of dance and movement because of the graceful pivots it allows us. I want so badly to pivot in real life too. But it starts in the soul, mind and body. I can move forward and backward, and I can turn. This workshop helped me to really see that I can own this journey and make it my own.”
Christina Gerber, Intuitive Healer at Crystalline Channel in Marin County, California
“Kelsay puts her heart into her work and is committed to co-creating dynamic change for her clients, allowing them to embody their most brilliant selves. She has such subtle exploratory beauty and divine inspiration!”

Lisa Jara, Menstrual & Menopausal Health Specialist and Soul-based Coach for sacred rebels
“Such a gentle and profound inner exploration, thanks Kelsay Elizabeth Myers for this beautiful offering!”
