Course Description
The Wild Woman program is a perfect opportunity for nature loving women to join together to develop a common language and deep dialogue focused on reweaving ourselves into the web of life for the benefit of self, community, the Earth and Spirit. This circle is about developing a community of women who support each other in awakening our own wild nature and building deep rapport with our sentient more-than-human world. There is great potency in being in a consistent, cohesive community as we grow our intuition, develop our dreamlife, become fluent in the language of nature, and hone our own unique pathways of service and healing.
This inspirational program will be a beautiful blend between wild adventures, classroom time, ceremony, inner exploration as well as home studies and nature meditations. We will learn from our teachers, the Earth, each other and our own personal stories. We will meet from 10 am – 4 pm on the fourth Sunday of the month, April – September 2019 where will explore a beautiful flower filled trail in Southern Oregon as we come home more fully to the Earth and ourselves. In addition, we will meet on the 2nd Wednesday evening of the month (April-September) in class to craft medicines and wild foods and share teachings, readings and our experiences.
Babes in arms welcome.
Through experiential learning in nature we will delve into modern science and ancient knowledge to better understand the natural world, awaken our instincts and interpret the language and signs of nature so that we can better know ourselves and fulfill our life’s true calling. It is for teachers, healers, nature lovers, and leaders and for all those that feel called to reweave their minds, bodies, hearts and spirits into the wild fabric of life for a joyful, resilient and healthy future.
