Circles & Classes

New Moms Virtual Circle

This is a 5 week virtual circle for all mothers during the first year postpartum. During these circles we create space for each other to be fully seen and heard as mothers. We will explore the natural ups and downs of the mothering journey through story telling, meditation and writing in community.

Each circle will include:

• A guided meditation or grounding exercise.

• Taking a deep breath and pause from your daily life, with a weekly check in.

• Time to connect. Each mom will have an opportunity to share her birth story and be received with love and compassion. (sharing is always optional)

• Learning universal healing practices for the postpartum period and life long health. Elizabeth provides a weekly 15 minute teaching on ancient healing practices that can be used at home with practical how-to instructions and beautiful handouts.

• Building community with weekly open discussion time to connect with other new mamas, a time where we learn and support one another.

This circle will not include:

• Talking about ways to “bounce back”

• Trying to return to our “old selves” or life before kids

• Getting quick fix parenting advice

• Pushing ourselves to “do or have it all”

Rites of Passage Journey Series

This series takes you on a guided path through the rite of passage into motherhood. This includes 3 individual sessions with Elizabeth and customized rituals and ceremony.

The 3 stages of a Rite of Passage are: separation, initiation and incorporation. Each ceremony will take us on a deep journey into each of these realms. When a baby is born so too is a mother, not a whole mother but rather the beginnings of who she will emerge as. Our sacred work will help you firmly step onto your path of BECOMING a mother. This is a journey into the depths of who you are and who you want to become. I will be your guide and witness as you navigate these new waters.

• You will have an opportunity to process, honor and release the loss and separation from the woman you were.

• We will process your transformation by beginning with your pregnancy, the birth and then postpartum experience. You will be able to fully integrate these experiences so that you may embody all the loss, challenges, change and wisdom, power and strength you now hold.

• We will hold space and create healing ritual and ceremony, if appropriate, for ancestral healing.

• Each mother will be honored, revered and cherished for the journey she has taken and the courage she holds to bring forward her new identity.

This series requires a commitment to all three sessions. Each session will be 1.5-2 hours. For a more detailed description of the sessions and pricing please contact Elizabeth. This series is highly recommended for mothers who are planning to have a Closing of the Bones Ceremony.
