From Wounds To Wisdom

awakening the mysteries of the feminine

where soul and story meet

           

 

“The synthesis of our wounds and aspirations creates presence, wholeness and spiritual maturity, which reveals our true purpose”                    

Caroline Carey – Founder Of Middle Earth Medicine Ways

Welcome… 

to a gentle & renewing path with animism (soul-work) and ritual. Transforming feminine wounds into courage & inner strength, with rites of passage and traditional tools.

Are you preparing for the second half of life and experiencing:

        feeling stuck without motivation or direction?

        sensing loss in a search for true purpose?

        challenged with motherhood, empty-nest or menopause?

        overwhelmed by the relentless march, or knowing that time is running out?

You might feel alone with this, but we are here for you.

On offer is a path designed to bring us together as a community. Helping us become empowered elders, sharing our wisdom and strengths. Together we inspire and encourage each other. Harvesting our life-experiences, while turning them into the gifts we are here to share with others. 

Are you yearning to bridge the chasm between your soul’s whispers and worldly action?

 

Where Soul Meets Story with Caroline  – Throughout my life, I’ve been fascinated by the whispers of the feminine soul, which led me to explore the concept of duality, the tension between the spiritual and material, the wound and the wisdom that shapes our world. When we don’t understand this tension, it can lead us into disconnection, leaving us without knowledge of a deeper understanding.

The second half of life offers a unique opportunity for self-discovery and reflection. As we gain wisdom and experience, we’re better equipped to understand the significance of our past story, navigating the present with purpose and making informed choices. It’s a time to discern what truly matters and to use that knowledge as guidance for a more fulfilling future.

It’s about navigating life’s complexities and rediscovering the unique gift we are each born with. 

The  creations of soul work, the liminal spaces and the traditional shamanic tools I offer, are invitations to explore this idea from the moment of conception – to the tension created within life transitions. We explore the wisdom of animism, and the language of archetypes to develop our personal mythos. Through these processes, we rediscover the feminine wisdom inherent that we already possess, but may not have acknowledged or acted upon. 

Is this resonating with you?

The journey of self-discovery that is held here, isn’t about theory: it is a deep reflection, a change in perspectives, creative projects and a connection to the natural and spiritual worlds.

An excellent DJ, an ethereal crone and movement ‘passionata’ bridging the extreme gaps between the territory of soul and the world of flesh and bone; I have danced with Caroline for eight years. There is no one I would trust more to hold me in my dancing journey. Caroline is a rare breed of movement teacher of the most intuitive kind.

I am amazed at the journey I am taking with this apprenticeship. Since September 2018, this path has shown me how to accept, nurture, and explore my own vision. My courage has grown and I have been able to direct my passion to hold Middle Earth Medicine (MEM) conscious dance spaces in Cork.  I feel myself expanding, strengthening, and softening with what is true for me. Every experience is woven through the MEM Wheel and with each turning I am becoming more open, trusting, and free-flowing.

Earth Love invited me to share on her podcast 2024

Sharing the Oracle card ‘Spirit’ 2022

“This middle earth, the older name of our culture, holds for us the healing & magic of our own societies wounds, as we lean into the creative songs that wish to be made known & dance what ever emerges from the depths of our bones, as the cells cry out the most ancient of our own poetry, we find out who we are and how it is, that we really do know why we are here”

and I don’t know the kind of person you are a pattern that others made may prevail in the world and following the wrong god home we may miss our star.
