For folks looking for mentoring rooted in deep listening, wise methods, and nuanced encouragement.
This mentoring circle is not a therapy group.
This is a cauldron for evoking and tending dynamic, embodied, presence and a clear, supple flow of aliveness in your creativity applied to your practice and your living.
This is a cauldron to deepen your own sense of at-home-ness in yourself and your work and in your deepening: a ripening workshop,ife.
The mentoring circle is an experience in a collective of folks meeting regularly. We will be together through creative and somatic methods, practicing an ethos of playful curiosity and serious inclusion. We will surface and explore growing edges and welcome wilder, wiser, more subtle and responsive textures of clarity, creativity, humility, and courage.
The curriculum will be nformed by the needs and desires of those who gather. This cauldron will encourage and challenge you to deepen your kinship with your longing and to travel that pathway. how is that? fuller? free-er? deeper? braver? softer? sturdier? with more steadfastness to your own heart? with a clearer voice?
This is a cauldron to cook the edges in you that want to ripen.
You do not need to know why you are drawn to this flow, though you might already have a sense of what calls you here. Together we will clarify the thresholds that are calling you.
“WE – ALL OF US ON TERRA – LIVE IN DISTURBING TIMES, MIXED-UP TIMES, TROUBLING AND TURBID TIMES. THE TASK IS TO BECOME CAPABLE, WITH EACH OTHER, OF RESPONSE.
The task is to make kin in lines of inventive connection…to stir up potent response to devastating events…
In urgent times, many of us are tempted to address trouble in terms of making an imagined future safe, of stopping something from happening that looms in the future…
Staying with the trouble does not require such a relationship to times called the future. In fact, staying with the trouble requires learning to be truly present…as moral critters entwined in myriad unfinished configurations of places, times, matters, meanings…
Staying with the trouble requires making oddkin; that is, we require each other in unexpected collaborations and combinations…
We become – with each other or not at all”
— Donna J. Haraway
