In this episode of the Lunar Temple Podcast I had the pleasure of talking to the wonderful Shasha Crow, Priestess of the Temple of Sabrina, about what it means to be in sacred flow with life, stepping into the role of Priestess and uncovering Britain's lost Goddesses of the River.
Shasha is a Senior Yoga Teacher, Usui and Crystal Reiki Master Teacher and Medium. She trained in these modalities in Hertfordshire at Feel Hot Yoga, Universal Reiki and with her Mediumship Teacher Sara Leslie.
Shasha runs transformational classes, workshops and retreats incorporating practices from these disciplines to facilitate healing, integration and profound divine connection. She’s deeply in love with the Sun and the River Severn, whose Goddess Sabrina is her closest Divine Feminine guide. She was first visited by the feminine water deities while leading a retreat in Mexico in 2017 and has been led deeper and deeper on her journey by direct guidance. She was dubbed Priestess of the Temple of Sabrina by her teacher, and medicine man, Antonio Gil in 2021. In her spare time, she can be found barefoot at the river, taking Chinese Tea Ceremony and channelling songs and words from Spirit. 2022 has led her work further into collaboration with trusted and talented colleagues and spiritual workers of many kinds!
You can find Shasha online at the following places: www.shashacrow.co.uk instagram: @shasha_crow
