Once in Bonny Village, activate the Site of Grace. If you want to do this faster, you can skip the village entirely. To do this, immediately after emerging from the well that leads to Bonny Village, head left and follow the cliffside. Summon Torrent and use its double jump to traverse a ravine, then continue riding northeast until you encounter a peculiar headless corpse/statue. Interact with this corpse/statue to acquire the O Mother gesture.
