WILD SELF

“To discover who she is,
a woman must trust
the places of darkness
where she can meet
her own deepest nature
and give it voice…
weaving the threads
of her life
into a fabric
to be named and given…
sharing it with
the women around her
as she comes to a true and certain
sense of herself.”

- Judith Duerk

Wild Self…untamed, undomesticated, unbroken.
Rooted in feminine earth wisdom.

Sprung from the body of the Great Goddess, from the womb of Anima Mundi.
Living in a cyclical, creative, and nonlinear state of nature.
Permeated by instinctive and intuitive intelligence.

Can you feel her stretching her energetic limbs inside the soft flesh of your animal body?

Most women, and men, feel her instantaneously and intuitively when she is invited to, and give herself permission, to lean into her.

A sudden trembling, a surge of energy, a flash of light at the bottom of your being.
A tingling warmth seeping through your living body.

You might tremble when you sense her power, but remember…

Her power is your life force.

She is untouchable, uncontainable, transcendent, and she is immanent.
She is what informs and animates your deepest life, all that you are.

Explorations

Week 1 - Opening circle |Invoking the Great Goddess & Anima Mundi

In our first session we will open the energetic container, invoke the Great Goddess & world soul. Who is the Great Goddess? Who and what is Anima Mundi? In what ways do they open the pathway to the Wild Self and how can you turn to them for guidance.

Week 2 - What is Self?

In this session I will introduce you to the relationship between maps, teachings & theories, and your direct experience. Questions we will explore… How can you use maps & teachings in a way that honors your own experience? What different maps of the Self are valuable resources to have as you venture into your inner wilderness?

Week 3 - Immerse

During Immerse sessions you will get a chance to check-in, journal, ask questions and share insights and reflections. We will revisit what we've been exploring for the past two weeks and I will offer entry points to deeper exploration through journaling, self-inquiry, meditation and movement.

Week 4 - Sensitized, Vibrational & Dimensional Self

The Wild Self communicates and appears as sensations, feelings, vibrations, movements, sounds, images and thoughts. To know your own vibrational frequency and to be sensitized to life is imperative for deepening of your relationship with the Wild Self and to life itself.

Week 5 - Meet the Edge & Ride the Wave

The edge is the place where your now sense of self begins to dissolve and expand to contain more. It is also the land where conditionings recoil, pull back, to keep you “in place”. To ride the wave is to ride on the edge of activation to discharge; through movement & sound, the energy held in place.

Week 7 - All That You Are

In the seat of the Wild Self there is space for all that you are. Rooted in her you can begin to befriend your fluctuating humanness. Ego, persona, shadow, inner child and teenager. The weary and tired, the crazy and weird. The Wild Self is an ally to all the inner voices.

Week 8 - Closing circle

In our last session we gather to give our thanks to the energetic container that we have shared together, to each other, and to all the beings (known and unknown) that have supported us during this time. We will leave a door open for the energy of this journey to infuse our day to day life.
