How might we chart a gentle, powerful course through the deep and sometimes rough currents of this moment to find healing, growth, and connection?
Navigating the Pathless PathA dear mentor and teacher of mine, Deena Metzger, often refers to the times we're in as a 'pathless path.' Our old assumptions, ways of being, and collective structures are falling away and, while something is emerging, beckoning us forward. . .we're not sure what it is or what direction to take.
It can be profoundly disorienting and uncomfortable. One step we can take is towards healing. In this group, 'healing' is not about fixing or solving. Rather, we approach healing as a communal journey towards remembering wholeness. Our wholeness as individuals. Our wholeness in connection with others. Our wholeness as Beings intrinsically connected with the larger world. This is an invitation to remember and, through that remembrance, to reorient and, perhaps, allow the path forward to reveal itself. |

How might we weave threads of curiosity, play, and community together to create a tapestry that speaks to each of us as individuals and serves the larger collective?
What To Expect
We'll meet eight times, once a week for 2 hours.
Each session will incorporate a grounding practice, a creative exploration, community support and connection, and other approaches that serve the moment. On any given week, we may explore Personal Mythology, Breathwork, Guided Visualization, Embodiment Practices, Divination, or Council Practice.
Between sessions, I will record exercises, suggest readings, and provide other resources that support the group's journey.
Because we're embracing the unknown and allowing ourselves to be guided by Spirit and the emergent future, there is no set curriculum. We trust the space, each other, and the ineffable to lead us, gently, forward.
If that sounds fun, this may be for you!
If that sounds terrifying, this may be for you!

March 29 April 5, 12, 19, 26 / May 3, 10, and 17 I know we're all a bit Zoomed Out and I've found over the past two years that when we connect deeply in virtual spaces, it's actually replenishing instead of depleting. |
Deep ConnectionThe group will be capped at 8 participants to ensure that the space remains cozy and that everyone receives the focus and attention they deserve.
|
It's Your JourneyIn addition to our set meeting times, there will be opportunities to explore readings, exercises, and connections between meetings. You can follow the threads that feel most interesting to you.

FAQ
I don't have much experience with 'spiritual stuff.' Can I still participate?
Absolutely! The experience is designed to welcome folks of all levels of experience and backgrounds. We each bring our unique experience and perspective to the space; that's part of what makes it so powerful.
I'm deep in the world of healing, energy, and Spirit -- is this for me?
Sure! Your grounding in that world will be incredibly valuable to the circle. That said, if you have any specific questions regarding practices we may be exploring or how you may be able to contribute, please feel free to reach out.
I get that the Healing Circle experience is designed to emerge and evolve as the group goes along. . .but can you give us a sense of what we may 'get' out of participating?
Ahhh, you're clever and saw that I deliberately avoided that type of language above! Sure--based on past experiences with groups like this, you may emerge with a deeper sense of grounding and purpose, an expanded toolkit of wellbeing practices, new insights and perspectives, greater clarity and sense of safety in the world.
If nothing else, you will have the experience of forging deep, surprisingly powerful connections with an amazing group of other humans who are also remembering wholeness in an often divided world.
