Our intention for Seasonal Mama’s Circle & Retreats is to reclaim the sacred and spiritual elements of a woman’s rebirth into motherhood, and acknowledge this sacred rite of passage. We endeavor to bring awareness to our community and culture that giving birth and mothering are not only physical experiences; but they hold a lifetime of powerful mental, emotional and spiritual aspects as well. Our purpose is to unite with the changing of the seasons, to witness, honor, nurture and celebrate the entire being of the Mother, and her incredible journey. This retreat is meant to nourish all phases of motherhood, as we share our unique experiences and stories. Together we will harness the deep wisdom that each of us bring from our ancestors and matriarchal lineage. Our time in retreat is medicine for the body, mind and soul. It is through these seasons we will continue to cultivate everlasting connections and support within our community of Motherhood.
