Why Tend the Temple?

A Temple is a sacred place, a place of deep love and reverence. This monthly circle holds the body and our direct experience as sacred, worthy of our time and attention. Tending the Temple is an invitation to turn toward ourselves and eachother with a willingness to listen more deeply and honor the intelligence that is already, and always, here within.

What to expect

Each circle is unique, shaped in the energy of the new moon and by those who choose to attend. Together we create permission to be ourselves, to explore authenticity, to receive nourishment, to release old scripts and ways of being, and to fully enjoy the inspiration and support available when we show up together in presence and connection.

We explore embodiment through feminine spiritual practice which includes movement, touch, connection, contemplation and meditation.

We welcome emotions as energy-in-motion without allowing the story to remove us from our direct experience. We trust that what is holy is revealed through exploring the glorious and messy imperfections of being human.

We create sacred space through intentional speech and shared silence. We appreciate our inner need for ritual, devotion, and connection and participate in Temple to fulfill that need.

Why Come to Temple

Women’s Temple is not a support group or therapy, though it can be deeply therapeutic.  Temple is a place to cultivate our ability to listen, practice receiving, feel deeply, have compassion, discover inner strength, develop self-awareness, and awaken feminine power and wisdom. It is ultimately an experience of compassionate self expression and reflection for women who are looking to explore and embody the feminine.

“I had a very deep experience in the practice you were leading. It felt very shamanic to me. your words, the poetry, dropped me into a new space. it was like a medicine plant journey. You opened spaces in between, textures in the pause. incredibly masterful tulasi, very very beautiful gift you have. so connected. The words you have, so connected. very, very beautiful.”
