Remember how beautifully carefree you were growing up?
How wildly creative? How full of energy + zest + off-the-charts excitement for all the little things around you?
You could spend hours lost in a choose-your-own-adventure book, or rolling down hills (grass stains be damned) or creating sure-to-be masterpieces on Lite Brite.
Every new interest you discovered was the biggest deal and most amazing thing in the entire world. And your friends? They were the most fascinating creatures ever.
You never got tired. You never got bored.
And frankly – you miss that.
So WTF happened? After you hit a certain age, some of the magic faded. That thing called “the real world” took over. Y’know – the one filled with bills and debt, babies, long hours at work, difficult relationships and loss.
But (maybe not so) deep down, you know something’s missing.
Secretly, you’d die to get back to that magical, golden place from childhood – if only you knew how.
You’re craving inspiration. You wanna feel that fire in your belly again. You wanna feel lit up!
I want you to know I feel you and I get it.
And I also want you to know that getting back to that place? Doesn’t have to be so hard. It’s not just some fantasy. You can make it happen.
Okay, so…
It seems like everybody in the personal growth world thinks they know how to recreate that childlike wonder. They talk about calming the mind, yoga, manifestation, positive thinking, mantras, affirmations – oh my! They’re telling us that doing all this extra “work” is the only way to reawaken to that peaceful yet exuberant presence we felt naturally as children.
But in my opinion it doesn’t have to look that time-consuming or hard. We’ve overcomplicated the whole thing!
I’ve found that just by tapping into your 6 senses, you can find the same levels of peace and presence. (And the cool thing about that is, they’re always with you + on-call.)
And as the curatorial wonder woman behind The Girl Who Knows, I’ve made it my mission help people get back to their senses in the most wondrous, wicked amazing + whimsical ways possible.
(Ways your 10-year-old self would totally dig.)
I truly believe the world would be a better place if everybody took just a few minutes a day to check in with their senses. That’s it.
No need to spend days in silence, weeks in a secluded forest à la Henry David Thoreau, or months Namaste-ing on the beach in Kerala India (unless you want to, of course).
Say hello to The Girl Who Knows Sensory Immersion Workshops.
Live. In-the-flesh, anti-workshop workshops for women (and a few knowing men) who want to reclaim their golden, childlike lustre…in a day.
What It Is + What You Get:
The Girl Who Knows sensory immersions are lovingly-curated spaces to hang out with cool people, dabble in + explore a variety of products + experiences (think: art, essential oils, candle pouring, foraging, dream catchers, organic beauty rituals…), listen to enthralling guest speakers wax poetic on their chosen passions and of course nom and/or nibble on a delish mini-buffet of fantastic snacks.
They’re an unstructured, unconventional and unrivaled adventure in exploring the 6 senses.
They’re that much needed dose of wonder + whimsy your soul’s been searching for far longer than you’d like to admit.
(And they’re helluva lot of fun, too.)
Each Workshop Includes:
A fascinating + unconventional intro to the 6 senses – Get back to basics, indeed! You’ll learn about how the senses work + why they’re absolutely vital to a fulfilled life
●
Individual sensory exercises + discovery activities – If you wanna sharpen your senses, you’ve gotta know where you’re starting. We’ll do some exercises to figure out your dominant sense, and talk about fun ways open up the others (like a sensory workout!) You’ll also get clear on your deepest desires and dreams + learn how to manifest them in reality…all through your senses. Legit.
●
Hands-on, engaging experimentation – We’ll switch on our senses in a variety of ways that require your active participation (think: playing with scent, chocolate tasting, impromptu dance parties…if it ignites one or more of your senses, it could happen!)
A special guest speaker/sensory expert – You’ll hear from at least one carefully-selected featured guest speaker who knows a thing (or ten) about their sense of choice – crystal healers, perfumists, movement experts, meditation masters, almond milk pioneers – you never know!
Plus, You Get…
Plenty of delectable snacks + drinks to keep you satiated (and tuned into taste) throughout the experience
●
Take-home gifts and carefully-curated picks from The Girl Who Knows (that’s me!), featuring hand-selected surprises to enchant each of your 6 senses
●
A newfound appreciation of this thing called life (and the power that our senses hold to transform our lives)!
