Workshops, Trainings, Writers' Circles

Group settings provide a space for connection, a circle within which we practice, discover and develop tools to support us on our path. Group offerings are either skills-based, focused on developing tools and resources, or they are rooted in Story and focused on deep transformation. I often offer trainings and workshops in collaboration with co-facilitators.

Priestessing Your Life Training

Priestessing Your Life is an in-person, non-sectarian thirteen-month training of spiritual and personal empowerment for adults of all genders, offering the potential of recognizing and unfolding your personal spiritual path forward. A new cycle begins each October.

Priestessing is a process of recognizing, gathering, shaping and directing subtle energies to support a specific intention.

Priestessing Your Life expands our awareness and ability to use subtle energies and shape the unfolding of your daily life.

Priestessing Your Life rests on the belief that each of us embodies an aspect of The Divine. We carry within us a sacred gift to offer the world; a gift that is ours and ours alone. The world awaits this gift that is seeking to manifest itself in our every action and throughout our lives.

Working with The Four Powers: To Know, To Will, To Dare, and To Choose Silence, we progress through the seasons, held in a strong and nurturing circle that supports our diversity.

Using tools including divination, guided visualization, experiential exercises, chanting, movement and more we develop touchstones that support our belief systems. We will unpack and define our conscious and unconscious core beliefs through examining concepts including immanence and courage, compassion, strength, and beauty; labels like Soul, Spirit, and Deity. Together we open to the voice of our Soul.

We develop daily practices to support our lives as we journey into our deep selves and reach outwards towards new possibilities for ways to be in the world.

Priestessing Your Life meets one day each month (on a Saturday or Sunday). The yearly calendar is developed at the first group meeting. Group meetings focus on both our inner (personal power) and outer journeys (our work-in-the-world). Sessions include skill building, energy work and preparation for independent work. Monthly one-hour private sessions support the growth. Individual sessions for out-of-town participants are available via Zoom or on the phone. Students share homework and offer mutual on-line support.

This work is intimate. Groups are limited to ten (10).

Training and Workshop Registration

All trainings, workshops, and Writers’ Circles are offered on a sliding scale basis. The scale will be listed along with the other details of each offering on my Announcements page. Pre-registration and a deposit holds your space. My work was brought online in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and I have been offering online workshops, trainings and Writers’ Circles using Zoom since April 2020.

Writers' Circles

We are all writers. Some of us write for our own enjoyment, others to understand ourselves deeply, still others write professionally. But we each have something to say, given the time and space to find it.

I anchor writing circles bi-weekly, holding the group within sacred space. Writing prompts arise from seasonal events, our conversations, or out of the depths of mystery. We share our work with one another and give and receive feedback based on the positive – themes we heard, turns of phrase that caught our attention, and we wanted to hear more about, and the like.

We typically open the Circles to new members in January, April and September. Please send me an email or check the Announcements page for more information.
