After nearly a year long sabbatical of deep self healing, growth, learning and expansion, I am ready (and excited!) to take the sacred seat of yoga teacher once again.
Wild Women’s Church is something that I’ve felt our society has been desperately NEEDING since I was a little girl. So much of modern spirituality was designed by men and for men -- and while I love men and find incredible value in learning from a variety of world religions -- I ALSO see that what most women need goes much deeper than what’s been offered to us. Wild Women’s Church is my answer to this prayer for something more. The class is a trauma-informed movement and meditation practice designed to help you see yourself CLEARLY (as a lovable, Divine being). to unearth your inner wisdom, to build courage, confidence, and self-compassion, to love, honor and inhabit your body, and to feel like the belong exactly as you are. This is not a place that you come to CHANGE yourself (although, from my experience, positive changes are inevitable), but rather a place you come to love, honor, and accept yourself, exactly as you are. And while the term *wild* scared me when it first came to me, it seems absolutely appropriate for this class: to be wild means to be undomesticated: to be free of the cultural conditioning that tell us we have to be something other than what we already are in order to be holy, in order to be good. You see, according to mystics, NOTHING needs to be added to make you holy. You are considered HOLY from the start: holy with your anger, your half-shaven legs, your big, round belly, your tears, your laughter, and your unprocessed grief, Still holy. Always holy. Never not holy. The practice is designed to help you remember that holiness and let go of whatever is holding you back from radiating it out to the world. Let's begin.
