Gorgeous You Retreats & Brand Photography

I’m so excited to be weaving an ecstatic dance journey for The Cocoon — a sacred sober rave — @ Ignite Sober Rave held on New Years Day 2026 at the Dance House in Leeds.

For anyone who doesn’t know me - DJ Ginergy - Ginny - I am a Dance the Medicine–trained ecstatic dance facilitator and DJ, devoted to creating safe, embodied spaces where people can reconnect with themselves through movement, music and presence. My work centres around supporting embodied confidence, emotional expression and a deeper sense of self-trust — helping people feel more at home in their bodies, minds and spirits.

Musically, this set will move through watery, spacious and melodic soundscapes, into earthy, tribal and organic grooves, before building into ceremonial bass, D&B and joyful rave energy, and finally landing in heart-opening, integrative downtempo.

The dance will be lovingly guided and opened by Danielle Byars , supporting everyone in arriving in their bodies, setting intention and feeling held before the music journey unfolds.

Come as you are. Move as you feel. Be held in the cocoon. 🐍✨

I think there are less than 10 tickets are left! https://dandelion.events/e/c1pz5

How often do you allow yourself to fully let go… to soften into rest… and receive?

You don’t have to do anything.
Just lie back… and allow the sound waves to carry you into a deep, restorative space of peace and inner harmony.

This is your invitation to surrender.
To rest.
To receive.

What are you focusing your energy on today?
What are you calling in more of?
Clear any negative energy around you.
✨
If you want more clients, who exactly would you love to help?
What are they going through?
What are they feeling?
How could you help them?
How will they feel after and what will they say?
How does it feel to have helped them?
✨
Close your eyes and visualise the above. Now call it in. What action can you take? What will you do differently today?

Have you ever felt like no matter how much you want something, a part of you keeps pulling back? Maybe you’ve set the goal, done the visualisations, and taken all the “right” steps — yet it still feels out of reach.

I’m exploring the deep relationship between trauma and manifestation, and it’s eye-opening.

For example, if you grew up with the belief (maybe passed down from generations) that “you have to work really hard to achieve financial success,” then setting a goal to make more money might trigger resistance. Even if abundance is what you consciously desire, your nervous system may respond with a strong “no.”

Why? Because it remembers. It remembers the times you pushed too hard, burnt out, or felt overwhelmed. That part of you is simply trying to protect you from experiencing that pain again.

But here’s the beautiful truth — healing is possible.

When we learn to regulate our nervous system, soothe those inner fears, and gently rewire the beliefs that no longer serve us, everything changes. When our bodies feel safe and aligned with our desires, we become the version of ourselves who has what we want. And that’s when manifestation can happen faster than we ever imagined.

I haven’t cracked the code yet, but I’ll be posting about my journey so keep tuned if you’re interested 😉

This journey isn’t about pushing through or forcing — it’s about creating safety, trust, and alignment within.

Does this resonate with you? Have you ever noticed your body resisting what your mind says you want? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. 💛

Listen to Your Body – It’s Always Speaking to You

Our bodies are constantly communicating with us—if we’re willing to listen. Every sensation, every ache, every emotional response is a message.

Feelings are meant to be felt, not buried. When we suppress emotions or ignore what our body is trying to tell us, it doesn’t just go away. Instead, it finds another way to get our attention—whether through stress, tension, exhaustion, or even illness.

Think of those uncomfortable sensations like a nagging child. At first, they whisper, hoping you’ll notice. If you ignore them, they get louder. And if you keep pushing them aside, they eventually scream or act out in ways you can’t ignore.

Tuning into your body may feel uncomfortable at first, but it’s the key to true well-being. Take a moment to pause, breathe, and ask yourself:
✨What is my body trying to tell me today?✨

When you start listening, you can begin healing.

✨ I’d love to know—how do you tune into your body’s messages? Do you have a practice that helps you reconnect? Share in the comments! 👇

A Goddess shoot is more than just a photoshoot and creating gorgeous images. It’s all about connecting with and embracing your divine feminine energy. It’s a journey of healing, reclaiming power and rediscovering the sacred within.

So it’s for you especially if you’re at a time in your life where you’re feeling stuck in the same patterns and are ready for a change, or maybe you’ve been through a big change and want to rediscover yourself and reclaim your power.

The divine feminine lives in the second chakra in the sacral area (pelvis). She is the water element, meaning that it relates to the ocean and the moon, and everything that moves, flows and pulsates.

The divine masculine is related to that which is stable, strong, and sturdy, whilst the divine feminine is connected to everything which is moving, mutable, and fluid. The contrast of these two energies is what makes the world go round.

Our inner goddess has been suppressed for centuries. In the current societal system, the focus is placed upon action, and rarely are we encouraged to just sit back and connect with our deeper self, into intuition.

✨Goddess Archetypes… The Creatrix/The Mother✨

The essence of the Creatrix is creation, innovation, artistry, and the power of manifestation. The Creatrix archetype is the woman who brings forth life, ideas, art, and change, as well as unconditional love. She is the creator and the innovator, tapping into the power of imagination and manifestation.

This archetype is sometimes connected with the Mother but is distinct because the Creatrix isn’t limited to physical motherhood. She represents the act of creation in all its forms—artistic, intellectual, spiritual, or life-giving.

Reasons you may feel drawn to embody your inner Creatrix Goddess: Creativity, imagination, innovation, manifestation, and birth (of ideas, life, or artistic works).

Associated Goddesses:

Brigid (Celtic): Goddess of poetry, crafts, and fertility. She is associated with creativity, inspiration, and the creation of new life and ideas.

Isis (Egyptian): A powerful creatrix figure who brings her husband Osiris back to life, symbolizing the power of magic and creation.

Spider Woman (Native American Hopi): Creator goddess associated with weaving the world and manifesting creation through her thoughts and actions.

Lakshmi (Hindu): Goddess of abundance, prosperity, and wealth. She is often depicted as a mother who brings fertility, wealth, and well-being to her devotees.

Gaia (Greek): The primal Mother Earth goddess, who birthed all life and embodies the nurturing and sustaining power of the earth.
