A tender beautiful soul
Carla played so many roles during the retreat with After the Rains, every one with humble talent, experience, wisdom, humour, care and great compassion. She is a wonderful cook who effortlessly produces delicious meals for a group; skilful at leading us through yoga, stretching and breathwork sessions; listens with kindness and responds with wisdom, humour and humility; and supports with great care, compassion and sensitivity. She is intuitive at somehow knowing what a person needs, both during the Ceremony and outside of it, and I will not forget her soothing presence and physical contact which quietened me during times of emotional release. She also has a beautiful voice, which can be gently sweet or raw with energy, guiding us deeper within ourselves in a way which almost felt other-worldly. Her connection with and respect for nature, and also great experience and expression of humanity, emotion and creativity make her the perfect guide on the retreat journey.
