Journey to Yourself:
A Nine Month WomanVision Program  

• What do you long for?
• How often do you make time just for yourself?
• When was the last time you fully embraced all that you are?  

The Journey to Yourself Program is about returning to yourself. It’s about getting to know yourself in a way you never thought possible. This yearlong program is for women who lead busy lives, yet know deep inside that there is still time and a way to connect. This journey is for women who want more out of life, who yearn for a deeper, more fertile way of being and living.

You are not alone in your desire to be empowered in the world. There is a widespread longing among women who know that now is the time to fully live their life and shape the future. Journey to Yourself is an opportunity to come home to yourself and revision the possibilities for your life. It’s about intentionally creating a space to slow down, to listen to your body and to connect to your inner wisdom.

As women, we instinctively know there was a time when we were revered for our power and our sacredness, for the mysteries that are hidden inside of us. By becoming intimately acquainted with and integrating all of the parts of yourself, including those parts that sometimes get hidden, rejected or ignored, you will have the opportunity to experience and embrace your wholeness. This program is a deeply personal journey that will give you the tools to live your potential, strengthen your voice, and contribute to your community.

The Journey to Yourself program will help you to:

• Attune to the cycles of the year and learn how they relate to your own life
• Create new definitions of female power and feminine wisdom
• Use ritual to become an agent of change in your life
• Make time to listen to your inner wisdom and honor your body as sacred
• Embrace all the parts of yourself
• Release your stumbling blocks
• Discover and deepen your connection to the divine feminine
• Fortify yourself in a community of women
• Set meaningful and powerful goals and intentions for the year

The Archetypes of Woman
As women with full lives, we require access to different aspects of ourselves at different times. Within one day, we may need to tap into our Amazon energy, our Lover energy, our Gypsy energy and our Artist energy. Journey to Yourself is designed to help you become acquainted with the many archetypes that you hold within yourself. In this program, we face and explore a different archetype of woman each month in order to better understand our own “inner patterns” and our own behaviors. In doing so, we begin to reclaim parts of ourselves that have been uneasily accessed, repressed or forgotten.

The Power of the Circle
Something magical happens when a group of women come together and share their stories. Imagine sitting in a sacred space where no matter what you say, you know you will be heard and respected. Within a circle of women we become empowered to explore our lives, to tell our stories, to offer courage and hope to others, and to receive the same in return.

All Journey to Yourself circles are highly experiential and consist of guided meditation, movement exercises, journaling, creative arts, breath-work, energy movement, song, and rituals from wise woman traditions throughout the world. Each new and full moon is an opportunity to reconnect to that power within ourselves.

The Importance of Ritual
By studying the ancient art of ritual, you open a doorway that will create great change and bring greater meaning to your life. For millennia, women were the keepers of ritual in their homes and communities. It is only in more recent history that this birthright has been forgotten. Rituals encourage you to get in touch with your inner wisdom and to prepare the way for change and manifestation. They align your mind and body to a greater purpose by allowing you to symbolically create what you want for your life.

The Cycles of Life
Everywhere we look there is evidence that life is cyclical. How we age, the seasons of the earth, the phases of the moon, and our very breath are continually cycling through the phases of birth, growth, death and rebirth. By coming to see this cycle as the natural rhythm of life, we are more fully able to be in sync and at peace with whatever is going on in our lives.

The moon’s monthly rotation from new to full to new again mirrors the mystery and sacredness of being a woman. Journey to Yourself will enable you to understand these cycles and how they can be used to rejuvenate and enrich your work, relationships, health and spiritual life.
