Womb Healing training in the Temple of the Feminine Arts 2026

In this 3-day experiential training, we are sharing additional skills from the Temple of the Feminine Arts that have been used over the past 15 years with clients 1–1 and in groups of women. Group sessions are a core part of this training, offering a supportive communal environment that enhances the somatic and relational aspects of the work, allowing for deeper learning, transformation, and a profound connection with the womb space.

For the first time, this training will also be offered in a residential retreat format at the Beacon Retreat Centre in Brecon, Wales. Staying together in community, with accommodation and meals included, creates an even deeper container for practice, ceremony and sisterhood. This immersive experience allows participants to fully embody the teachings while being held in a retreat setting.

All of the different techniques and feminine art skills have been learnt directly from other skilled teachers in the UK and America. We have permission and blessings to share this important womb healing work, which has been adapted and developed into the Womb Healing Practices modality.

Each session is unique, bespoke, and life-changing. The training is designed to foster a deep connection with the womb and feminine energy, supporting greater self-awareness, healing and embodiment. It offers a comprehensive approach to womb work, integrating somatic, relational and traditional healing modalities for vitality, creativity, and intergenerational healing.

Come and learn with the Sanctuary of Sophia. We have now trained over 200 therapists and womb healers in these skills, and we are proud to be the UK’s most established and experienced Womb Temple — the Sanctuary of Sophia.

About Luna Simpson

Luna, one of our Accredited Associate Teachers at The Sanctuary of Sophia, is the lead instructor for our three-day CPD course in Womb Wrapping, Yoni Steaming, and Sacred Anointing. As a holistic practitioner dedicated to supporting women, Luna integrates a comprehensive and nurturing approach into all aspects of her work.

Based in the stunning Jurassic landscapes of Dorset, Luna brings a deeply intuitive and authentic approach to her work, holding safe and nurturing spaces for self-connection and exploration.

Her journey into holistic practices began with a transformative experience in Reiki, sparked by her care for a withdrawn and troubled horse named Boodles.

Reiki not only healed the horse but also reignited Luna’s sense of self, leading her to study Reiki and later expand into other holistic therapies. As a Reiki Master, yoga teacher, and shamanic practitioner, Luna specialises in modalities such as womb wrapping, yoni steaming, sacred anointing, and shamanic womb massage.

Her personal experiences with womb trauma, endometriosis, and profound grief have deeply informed her practice. Training with The Sanctuary of Sophia was a pivotal moment in her life, allowing her to heal ancestral wounds and weave these teachings into her work. Luna’s facilitation skills are evident in her ability to guide both group and individual healing sessions, fostering empowering and supportive environments.

Luna is honoured to guide others through the sanctuary’s transformative CPD course, offering the same life-changing connection and healing she has experienced. Her expertise in holding space allows participants to engage in deep emotional and somatic healing throughout their journey.

About Kim Barnard

Kim is a Womb Medicine Woman, Soul Alchemist, Sacred Sound Healer, and Breathwork Facilitator who focuses on supporting and guiding women back into alignment with their mind, body, womb, and soul.

Kim focuses on supporting women in re-connecting and healing their physical, energetic, and cosmic womb centres. She believes that the womb, our menstrual cycles, and periods are the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to self-empowerment and sovereignty. In her approach, she emphasizes the importance of the sacral chakra in balancing emotions, enhancing creativity, and supporting energetic healing within the womb space. Her work also integrates the divine masculine, inviting this energy to support emotional and spiritual integration alongside the feminine.

In her own words… I have searched for myself for decades, hoping to find ‘me’ in the next course, training or healing. I have followed teachers, gurus and others, thinking they might have the answers. Truthfully, it wasn’t until my pregnancy and my daughter’s birth that I realised that all the answers I searched for were within. Through these practices, I experienced deeper embodiment and cyclical attunement, which continue to guide my journey.

As someone who has spent over 20 years in and out of talk therapy, NLP sessions, hypnotherapy sessions, energy healing and various other modalities of healing, it wasn’t until that decision, that moment of realisation, to move out of my head and into my body and more specifically my womb that things started to change. My own healing became the foundation for supporting others on their transformative journeys.

We have forgotten our wisdom; generations of disempowerment, isolation, and misinformation can have that effect. We look for the answers outside ourselves because we have been taught that our bodies—our bleed and womb—are just a mechanism. Surely, they could never be the key to our development, healing, empowerment, and the answers we seek.

Yet the answers we seek couldn’t be closer or simpler. All we have to do is turn inward and observe the magic of our natural rhythm; sometimes, we just need a guiding hand to understand the language of our womb.

More About the Training

This training guides participants to reconnect with their life force, honouring the vital energy that sustains health, vitality, and fertility. By attuning to the cyclical rhythms that shape our lives, the course supports a holistic understanding of how our emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions are deeply interconnected with nature and personal experience.

The programme represents a new paradigm in womb health and healing, integrating traditional wisdom with modern somatic practices to foster both personal and cultural transformation. It emphasises the collective and relational significance of wombs, inviting participants to experience their wombs as sources of power, identity, and cyclical wisdom.

Women’s circles are a core part of the training, providing a supportive community for shared healing, group practices, and spiritual connection. Creating a sacred space is central to these practices, allowing participants to honour the yoni and womb area as a divine sanctuary deserving of care and reverence.

Through this journey, each participant is invited to awaken the sacred woman within, embracing feminine energy, self-awareness, and empowerment as part of their transformational process.

Benefits of Womb Healing

Womb healing brings a wealth of benefits that touch every aspect of a woman’s life. Through these practices, women can experience profound emotional healing, embodied healing, and personal transformation.

By cultivating a deeper connection with their womb and feminine energy, women often find increased self-awareness, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose.

For those on a fertility journey or exploring conscious conception, womb healing can offer gentle support and guidance, enhancing overall womb health and well-being.

These practices are also invaluable for holistic practitioners—massage therapists, reiki practitioners, and energy healers—who wish to expand their skills and provide more comprehensive care to their clients.

By integrating womb healing into their practice, practitioners can help women achieve deeper connection, emotional healing, and a greater sense of wholeness. Ultimately, womb healing is a powerful tool for self-care, personal healing, and the cultivation of feminine energy.
