SEEDS OF CHANGE

CONTEXT

At previous festivals, we witnessed powerful breakthroughs — moments of awakening, new possibilities, and profound shifts. Yet many people felt there was more available to them than what could unfold within the festival itself. The impulse for this 3-day Seeds of Change Bridgehouse came from that recognition: the longing not just to integrate what happened, but to go further, to deepen the transformation already begun.

This space is designed for those who don’t want the journey to end when the festival does — who feel the spark and want to fan it into something enduring and real. Over three days, we offer a living container where you can continue the work, experiment with new ways of being in a committed team, and expand your evolution inside a vibrant community environment.

SOMOS is an Archiarchy Invention Centre — a place for adults to heal, to explore what has not yet been possible, and to create from radical responsibility. We hold spaces for inner and outer regeneration, where transformation meets real-world practice. This year has already been rich with trainings and growth — and this gathering continues that flow.

SOMOS

THE THREE DAY JOURNEY

Across three immersive days, there will be three held process spaces each day — you can choose the ones that call to you, or dive into them all.

The spaces will evolve based on what’s truly needed, so you’re warmly invited to bring your own proposals and longings. Likely themes include:

• Radical relating and authentic connection

• Collaborative communication and co-creation

• Personal and collective experiments for discovering your own culture while learning to honour and engage with others’

• Community-building practices and non-hierarchical decision-making

Together, we’ll explore how to live and lead from purpose — healing individually and collectively as we create something real, alive, and grounded.

SCHEDULE

The first day starts 2nd December and ends 4th December in the afternoon. You will be able to arrive from 3pm 1st December.

In my search for transformation I have found an abundance of possibilities and the practice of many helpful tools.

With consciousness comes clarity - I transform not to become someone else, but to be more and more myself. My being longs for this.

A daily practice of consciously living, in reality, here and now.

Anchored within my physical body, the earth under my feet, my heart alive with feelings and healing, my soul flourishes.

With clarity and gentleness I hold space for you to come as you are, to land in experiential reality, to feel and to be with what is.

And to create from there.

I've been a programmer, a smart guy, an awkward person, a dancer. Currently I'm in a big liquid state about how to create what I want from my feelings and connect with my aliveness. How do I create what nourishes me and not what drains me. I realize how I often push myself to do something or pull away to avoid something else and how neither works for me. I also experience magic happening, again and again, when I stay in the place of presence - with no stories attached - and surrender to not knowing how it goes to create in a different way.

I also experience how valuable and important it is for my unfolding to have a space held by a person who is committed to me - without their agenda. That's what turns me on - to hold space from a place of love and commitment to empower you to discover, heal and transform. I care and am committed to holding alive spaces and to letting go of knowing how to get there.
