ABOUT THE PRESENTER
Anique Radiant Heart has been walking the Goddess path for over 25 years. An inspired singer/songwriter, author, publisher, ceremonialist and public speaker, Anique is dedicated to awakening women to our glorious matriarchal herstory.
She has been facilitating Sacred sound/voice workshops and Goddess Mystery workshops for women since 1990 and has produced Goddess festivals, Goddess publications and is about to begin leading Goddess tours of sacred sites in England, Wales, Ireland, Greece and Egypt.
A professional vocalist for 33 years, Anique has self produced 7 CDs since 1990-her latest being "EMBRACING THE GODDESS" which is the second in the trilogy of Goddess CDs Anique has been inspired to create. The first "INVOKING THE GODDESS" has the 7 original chakra chants used in this workshop.
Anique has travelled the world, singing and teaching and has developed her own vibrational healing techniques using toning and chanting. At the Glastonbury Goddess Conference this year Anique led over 300 women through the "SINGING THE CHAKRAS" process and received a standing ovation.
"I see my work as teaching and making magic-the art of empowering ourselves and each other...we train our voices, bodies, intuition and minds. We use the skills we learn to deepen our strength, both as individuals and as a community, to voice our concerns about the world in which we live, to birth a vision of a new culture".
Anique is also an artist creating sacred objects such as drums and rattles from gourds for spiritual work, and beautiful ceramic bowls, candle holders and oil burners for altars and other sacred spaces.
QUOTES from women who attended previous
SINGING THE CHAKRAS
Sam East-Marketing Manager
"A workshop of profound self-discovery-not just through the realms of voice and chant, but through connection and union with like-minded souls who are drawn to such a workshop. A "must do" for anyone who wants to tap into their essence".
Julie Segman-Student
"The workshop enhanced my confidence emotionally and spiritually, birthing the seeds of courage I need, to have deep, meaningful contacts with others."
Helen Nicholas-Teacher/Educator
"I came to Singing the Chakras to sing and also discovered the Goddess-it was profound and moved me past some difficult blocks."
Beverly Wyburn-Social Worker/Photographer
"Please accept my heart felt congratulations on a fantastic workshop. Your talent, hardwork, inspiration and devotion have created a wonderful experience for all to experience and enjoy. I believe it can be a life changing event if one is prepared to do the work and be present and engaged. Singing, sounds and vibrations are the building blocks of life itself. My belief is that we all need to make space in our lives for the divine to enter and your workshop does this wonderfully well. Not only providing space but giving tools for how to work with the divine in co-creating life how we really want it to be. Personally it has revitalised my spiritual life and given my physical life a much needed boost of energy. For me the vibrations created by singing your chants and songs makes powerful and enchanting magic.
I can find no area for complaint and will be recommending your workshops to my sisters. Well done and may you be as successful as you indeed deserve to be. Much love and blessed be.
KATHERINE BUCHANNAN'S OPEN LETTER TO ME AFTER THE LAST RETREAT
After attending a most spiritually uplifting and empowering women's retreat I am compelled to put pen to paper, or at least fingers to keyboard!
Firstly, I would like to thank Anique and Debbie for opening their home for the first retreat to be held at Serenity. Thank you both!
Serenity provides everything her name promises - she is a place of healing, meditation and contemplation, of safety and compassion, and home of the Goddess. Serenity is truly a place between the worlds!
We arrived at dusk after almost nine hours on the road. A mother and daughter anticipating a wonderful weekend, and unsure of what to expect. We decided to have no expectations - simply to be there and be present, to see what the Great Mother had in store for us.
Anique greeted us warmly and with open arms, guiding us through her home. Some of the other women had already arrived, and campsites were in various stages of creation. Site selected, tent erected, our sleeping space complete.
Dinner was a culinary masterpiece - all thanks to the chef! I hadn't realised how hungry we were. The meal was blessed within our circle, new Sisters linked by hands, establishing connections that would grow over the next two days.
The evening video provided insights into Goddess culture and religion through the ages, and stimulated lively discussion late into the evening. The long day caught up with us and we retired for the night.
Early morning brought birdsong and hot coffee! And the opportunity to share in Anique's morning spiritual practice. Learning the first chants of the day, our voices changed and blended, rising above us to create a web of prayer to the Great Mother.
Then Anique began to introduce us to the chakras, tones, chants and Goddesses. Spiritual practices that support our daily lives - discovering that, although we each have challenges, when we call on the Goddess for help and support, She is there, and She is within us.
The day was spent sharing and learning, each taking turns as student and teacher, and practicing the new skills gathered during the workshops. After lunch Sue Gee shared her amazing music, bringing tears of both laughter and emotion to our eyes and hearts.
Thankyou Sue - you have such talent, and your CD is great!
After the last workshop for the day out came the drums, rattles, castanets, all kinds of music-makers. We drummed, and chanted, and rattled, and rang - 21 women working up a sweat raising energy!! I know I'll be searching out a local drumming circle to join!
Another long day, another superb evening meal, and the opportunity to talk about the day, and learn more about our Sisters. The second video of the weekend introduced me to the work of Maria Gumbatas, and her research into Goddess cultures. We talked late into the evening, and headed off to bed not long before midnight.
The arrival of Sunday morning, the final day, meant that the retreat was almost over! As we joined the morning chants the words were so much more familiar, and I felt as though the Sisters' voices lifted me into the web of prayer being woven above us. Our words and spirits filled the Temple, and filled our hearts. What an empowering way to start the day!
Anique continued her teachings. We listened and learned, sang and shared. We gave life to the music in our hearts as we sang words from our journals, the words themselves becoming living music from our souls.
Anger, and hurt, and fear were spoken and wept. Release and sharing became the first steps to healing. Tears, pure and open, cleansing and healing wounded spirits.
The closing ceremony, sealed with the final chants and song, brought me both sorrow and joy.
Sorrow in leaving the sacred space between the worlds, sorrow in leaving Serenity, and sorrow at such a short time to gather with my Sisters. Joy in having been part of such an uplifting, affirming and empowering weekend. Joy in having been present; joy in being given the opportunity to meet 20 such powerful and spiritual women.
I am grateful to Anique for living her dream and finding Serenity, for creating and sharing her sacred space, and for the honour of sharing her knowledge and wisdom with me.
Anique, you have provided the tools and opened the doorway - now all I have to do is step through!
Bright Blessings, and many thanks
Katherine
