Sedna - An Immersive Journey to the Inuit Goddess of the Sea

Myth · Cosmos · Story · Creativity · Sound

Date/Time: 6.30pm to 9pm, Friday 27 March 2026 – The Hive, Penzance

Beneath the frozen waters of the Arctic lives one of the most wild and powerful figures in Inuit mythology – Sedna, goddess of the sea and all its creatures. She is also one of the outermost known bodies in our solar system, and her astrological emergence feels timely and charged with meaning.

Sedna's themes are ancient yet still alive today: vulnerability, betrayal, survival, transformation, the transmutation of suffering, the power of the untamed, rebellious feminine, and the wisdom waiting beneath the surface of our own lives.

This evening workshop is an experiential introduction to Sedna and her world with your guides: Author, Artist and Polar Traveller Kari Herbert ,and Astrologer and Acoustic Alchemist Alison Dhuanna. Through myth and storytelling, we will explore her ancient story, how it has shaped the Inuit culture in Greenland and why it still resonates today; through mindful drawing, we will playfully and creatively imagine our inner Sedna; and through a potent gong bath, we will ‘meet’ the energy of this extraordinary Inuit goddess and explore the depths of our own resonance with her.

Past participants have said of Kari’s workshops:

"It was such a beautiful safe and nurturing space, something i have needed for a while...I will be taking lots of things with me, I think most of all the peaceful feeling I felt afterwards... Kari just knows how to pick up on what people need and time was given to express without being rushed and held in a safe space. Everything seems to have changed for me since somehow. I feel some calmness and peace that I have not felt in quite a long time." Cindy

"I absolutely loved the workshop .... I found Saturday’s gathering of great comfort and safety, surrounded by love. I’m so grateful I came to the workshop and met you all. What a wonderful group of people. Thank you so much for providing such a special moment." Daniela

"It was a brilliant idea to bring all of those elements together in such a gorgeous, nurturing and nourishing way. I think people really felt nourished and safe to go deep and really make changes and really explore what visioning really is – wow! You held the space and created the space really well and built a beautiful community. I really felt there was a quality of ceremony in it as well. It was so deeply rooted in love as a space and felt really connected. I think it was all wonderful.” Pippa

Your Guides:

Kari Herbert spent her earliest years living with a remote Inuit community in Northwest Greenland, where her first words were spoken in the local dialect and her first steps taken on Arctic tundra. The polar wilds are truly in her bones - she has returned to Greenland and other Arctic communities many times throughout her life.

Kari is an author of six internationally-published books, and an exhibiting artist. Among other notable venues, she has spoken at the Royal Geographical Society, the British Library and The Explorers' Club in New York, and gave a TEDx talk, A Pocket Full of Wonder.

Based in Cornwall, she is an accredited mindfulness teacher, an EcoNidra and essential oils guide, an EFT practitioner and Reiki healer. Alongside her creative work, she works 1:1 with private clients and creates safe, nourishing spaces, workshops and retreats where storytelling, creativity, nature connection and mindfulness is the foundation for deep yet gentle transformational healing.

Alison Dhuanna is an experienced Gong player and self-described Acoustic Alchemist, invoking multi-dimensional healing through the transformative power of sound. For many years she has held sacred space where vibration becomes medicine, weaving resonance, intention, and presence into immersive sonic journeys.

A devoted Priestess, Alison bridges Celtic and Christian traditions in ways that feel both ancient and refreshingly alive. Her work honours the land, the lineage of the mystics, and the living current of spirit, creating ceremonies and workshops that are rooted, reverent, and quietly radical. She is a co creator of Living Waters at the Hive.

As an Astrologer and Gene Keys Guide, she supports individuals in navigating life’s initiations with insight, compassion, and depth. Her approach is intuitive yet grounded, illuminating soul patterns and guiding others toward greater self-understanding and embodied purpose. Alison is also a poet and the author of Walk in Beauty, bringing lyrical sensitivity and mythic awareness into all her offerings.
