the beloved within
A sacred space for embodied healing, relational transformation and courageous becoming in service to Love.
we blossom into all we’re meant to become, when we root down into the truth of who we are.
We all come into this life with inherent gifts and lessons to learn as we walk the path of being human. Following the subtle pull of our intuition and becoming the person our souls know we are meant to be in this lifetime invites us to get real and resourced in an embodied way, so we’re not bypassing the reality of our emotional experience, but rather making space for our bodies to do what they naturally know how to do; to heal. Rooting down into the work that supports us transforming the ways we’ve inherited patterns of trauma, attachment wounding and cultural conditioning means we’re reclaiming what’s ours to hold and sending back what was never ours to begin with, with blessings. Actively co-creating right relationship with ourselves, others, Spirit and all parts of who we are as sacred through the thresholds of grief, intimacy, transformation and the ways our inner knowing is calling us forward. As soul-centered, sensitive beings, we can reclaim our inherent worth as we cultivate safety within our own nervous systems and remember the power of our perception, choices and life force energy that is directly determined by the state of our nervous system. Here we teach you how to work with your nervous system responses for greater liberation, to embrace your wholeness, soul gifts and sacred power within to break patterns of colonial, relational, ancestral and cultural trauma. To reclaim your souls truth, cultivate healthy attachment, authentic expression and embrace your souls purpose in service to the Heart. To remember the power of unconditional Love that has always lived within.
The Beloved Within is a space where we offer creative + feminine healing arts, somatic education and embodied spiritual practice for the purpose of supporting the process of healing trauma, cultivating healthy relationships and tending our souls becoming in service to Love. We come together to do the inner work in community to remember our roots, receive Grace within and turn toward our own personal and shared responsibility on the feminine path of relatedness. Shame can only live in isolation, and reclaiming true belonging in our bodies + on Earth happens when we reclaim our power in the presence of co-regulation, brave expression, boundaries and room for all of you to be here, inclusive of all socioeconomic status or experience in a body. We gather to remember who we are when we're seen through the eyes of Nature and the Goddess as unconditional Love. The Beloved Within was created to help you reclaim connection to your inherent worth, inner child, and wild heart. Somatic work helps to expand your capacity for choice, receptivity and real soul nourishment for the ways you’re being called forward in relationship + in the world. Not so you can become something you’re not, or to keep the capitalist wheel turning, but for the purpose of integrity, right relationship and living from Love with your heart broken open as the medicine needed to transform our broken structures and systems. Our work is to support you in blazing your own trail forward from Spirit within for your souls liberation; for the liberation of all beings, for the sake of Love itself.
This is a place of education, exploration, discovery and reverence for the whole & holy human body + heart. We offer trauma-informed somatic + spiritual curriculum centered on creativity, intimacy, intuition and relationship for the purpose of healing trauma and reconnecting to your universal life force energy from within. We understand everything exists in relationship, and our work is rooted in lineages of wisdom and western trauma healing practices that supports us in fostering liberating relationships to ourselves, others, Nature, and Spirit as energy, Love and aliveness. We offer space to laugh, cry, stay free and be all you are meant to be for your own inner child, wild heart and in service to Spirit as Love and your forever becoming. Breaking patterns of generational trauma, creating miracles for healing and unraveling experiences of victimhood, repression, addiction and control in a system that profits off our complacency and a culture that conditions us to be something other than what we truly are in order to be loved. Together we educate, empower and offer practice to live supported, rooted, embodied + expressed in Spirit and our souls purpose to Love here on Earth.
founder • artist • guide
The Beloved Within is a body of work born through the lived experience and education of founder Annie Molloy. During her foundational years of self development and soul awakening through healing her personal and familial trauma, Annie received the transmission of The Beloved within her own body and heart.
The mission of The Beloved Within began as a revelation of Spirit and has transformed into a movement that Annie has brought to life. The purpose of this movement is to bring education, emotional healing, soul liberation and connection to the power of unconditional Love from within, into the lives of those who seek to heal patterns of trauma, cultivate healthy relationships, reclaim their own soul gifts and step into becoming the person they know they are meant to be in this lifetime.
Annie’s professional education began with a Bachelor’s degree in sociology + creative writing from Rutgers University. It continued through years of teacher training, certification and devotional practice in body temple dance, breathwork + meditation, trauma + energy healing, voice + movement, somatic education, nervous system therapy, intimacy + relationship, traditional Tantra + Bhakti yoga and spiritual + Dharma (soul purpose) life coaching.
Through her whole-heart and full-body devotion to the power of Truth + Love that she discovered through her own embodied practice and relational awakening, Annie now supports others in cultivating safety within their own nervous systems, unraveling patterns of inherited trauma + shame from colonial conditioning and reclaiming their own sacred power within to live in ways that are supportive of their whole, true, authentic heart expressions in relationship + in the world.
carrying forth lineages of embodied love
Healing generational trauma, reclaiming ancestral gifts and walking the path of becoming the person we know we are meant to be in this lifetime requires fierce faith and strong containers of support to remember the sacred power we carry fact that there was never anything wrong with us to begin with. Emotional regulation and healing relational wounds begins with us, with community, compassion and care for where we are, while recognizing the inherent divinity and threads of purpose that are already alive and well in our bodies and hearts.
The Beloved Within carries forth lineages of embodied Love that support us in remembering who we are, where we come from, and how we can work with the subtle energy bodies + nervous system and Spirit to navigate the thresholds of feeling and healing we get to experience as relational beings on Earth. Our work is rooted in the knowing that God is not some power outside of us, but rather is interwoven into the very fabric of our being and can be more fully experienced through sacred practice in relationship to the power of unconditional Love that already lives within.
The Beloved Within is born from somatic + spiritual education, the creative + feminine healing arts, traditional Tantric Bhakti yoga and Body Temple Church. The practices we offer are for the purpose of our individual and collective liberation from the soul-sucking systemic structures of colonial repression and western rule that actively works to distract, disembody and disconnect us from our true selves, each other, the Earth and sacred power within. We do this work to remember that we have a hand in our personal and collective futures, and that growing anchored in our souls truth, right relationship and embodied liberation while living in service to Love matters now more than ever.
for THE BODY, HEART & whole human soul
Our work always takes place context of relationship, where self-attunement, resourcing, co-regulation, community, ancestral roots, the elements, Nature + Spirit as Love are at the core of our coming together to get free and become more fully in our sacred power. We always assume activation, honor rupture and repair and work with the ways we’ve learned to shutdown, fight, runaway or suppress our true wants, needs and authentic desires. We work with the nervous system and our extremely natural adaptations to real and perceived threat as the path to cultivating healthy relationship, embodied integrity, real soul liberation and creative freedom.
Healing is about restoring wholeness and reclaiming the power to choose, imagine, create and relate in an new and embodied ways. Turning to what helps us free up our life force energy through curiosity, love and aliveness, from within. As we restore self-connection in community, we also remember our inherent interconnectedness and the knowing that there is so much more possible for us beyond what we’ve known or been sold. We offer a community-oriented space to do the inner work, to actively wield our power and work with the dynamic expressions of our unique human experiences as a spiritual practice. Coming together can create miracles for transformation when we are working in strong containers for the firey feminine realms of relatedness, inherent self-worth and rooting into God as Love in the Great Mystery. We offer space for each of us to honor our sacred responsibility to steward the power of Love, Liberation and sacred resilience that already runs through our very blood and bloodline.
We invite all who come to class to release the notion that we heal because there is something wrong with us, but rather we do so for our continual reclamation and becoming in our souls truth and support for the parts of us that say otherwise. We gather to remember the importance of laughter, play, curiosity and compassion for our whole human experience, to take care of the courage it takes to integrate shame and lead our lives in service to the power of Love born from our broken open fierce & tender whole + holy human hearts.
