McCall Women's Circle: Exploring & Cultivating the Sacred

Do you:

• crave deeper and more meaningful connection with other women?

• long for a place to explore your sense of what is sacred, and to cultivate your relationship to it?

• need a safe and supportive space to share your philosophical, mystical, and imaginative ideas, experiences, and questions?

• want to live in harmony with the Earth and seasons, own your Story, and nourish your Spirit?

• yearn for opportunities to deepen your knowledge of women's stories and history, to work with myths and folktales?

• believe that you are worthy of investing in your self and your unique soul  journey?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, then you might benefit from an Earth•Story•Spirit Women's Circle!! My 2024 program offers a fully-facilitated monthly gathering opportunity to women committed to Exploring and Cultivating the Sacred through safe and supportive small-group work. We will meet twice per month, on the Tuesdays listed below (not quite every-other week), starting on May 7th and ending in October. We will meet 6:00pm to 8:30pm. The McCall Community Hub will serve as our "base camp" and meeting spot during shorter days and cooler weather. When weather permits, we will meet outdoors at nearby locations, including Ponderosa State Park.

Overall, this program is rooted in a devotion to Earth (grounding in place, in body, in season), to Story (owning & shaping our personal narratives as well as gleaning gifts from women's history as well as myths and folktales), and to Spirit (honoring the need for meaning-making in our own lives as well as nourishing our connection to what is bigger than ourselves - compatible with your existing religious traditions). During our time together, we will explore the sacred and its many aspects through discussion, creative projects, meditation, journaling, storywork, practical activities, focused listening, readings, and more. Optional homework and additional resource lists will provide the opportunity for further work between our sessions. Topics will include: defining what is sacred to us, living in relationship with the animate Earth and in harmony with the seasons, mystical experiences and awe, "-isms" and their wounds & gifts, dreamwork, intuition, imagination, deep time and ancestor work, whole brain living, holy rage and reconciliation, the wild feminine, women's stories and history, embodiment, the art of ritual and gathering, and how we make meaning.

Based on past experience, I have planned an extra half-hour at the start of sessions to serve as a settling in / visiting / catching up period so that we can have a hard start at 6:30 with two hours of solid time to work together. This will also allow those in transit from work a cushioned "arrival window" and/or time to eat.

Cost is $500. My past Circles have included 9 or 10 sessions meeting monthly. This Circle will include 12 sessions (hence the slight price increase) and will meet more frequently over a period of 6 months. Registration requires a willingness to commit for the entire program period, both for your own deepest benefit and for the cohesion of the group. You can register here right now, or contact me for more information. Alternate payment options include Venmo, check, or cash. Payment plans are also available, as are a limited number of need-based scholarships. Please contact me if you would like more information at tracey@earthstoryspirit.com or 208-271-6583.
