April SSR update


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hello Sacred Sisters,

?

As we are in the throes of planning the weekend, I have looked at the newest agreements many times.? And, here is what struck me recently¡­

~ Sacred Sisters Rising ~

We are a circle of Priestesses who are committed to our personal and collective growth in order to become more fully rooted in self, stronger in sisterhood and to reach out into community.

?

Rooted in Self:

Nourishing, knowing, loving, accepting and grounding deeply into our fullest selves; forever expanding our capacity to be fully alive and craft our dreams in this human experience.

Strong in Sisterhood:

To love each other unconditionally, supporting our light and potential for growth, encouraging each other¡¯s highest purposes while always providing a safe respite for our most authentic selves.

Reaching Out in Community:

Drawing from our roots in self and strength in sisterhood, we ripple our Priestessing out into the world.

?

?

I think it is fair to say that the theme/intention of the weekend is particularly around the first two: Rooted in Self and Strong in Sisterhood.

?

This is a quick-ish check-in email to give a heads-up about the flow of the weekend, April 22-24.? Here are the basics:

?

There are five women that are ¡°for sure¡± in-person (at Katie¡¯s home in Tennessee).? There are five women that are ¡°for sure¡± for 100% attendance via zoom.? There are six women that will be attending as they are able via zoom. ?That is all 16 of us.

?

Here¡¯s the general flow:

?

Friday night at 7p ET ¨C 9p ET (may not use the whole time, but we wanted spaciousness):?

  • check-in
  • specifics about the rest of the weekend
  • some ritual / grounding space

?

Saturday, starting at 9:30a ET:

  • Quick check-in
  • Breathwork (with an outside teacher/facilitator; see attached)
  • Circle share (more on that below)
  • Ritual space that night?
  • Shared meal-time together

Of course, we¡¯ll take breaks throughout the day.

?

Sunday, start time TBD:

  • Check-ins
  • Off the screen ritual
  • Collective zoom meal (for those that want to)
  • Check out

?

Info about the Circle Share:

  • Gretchen introduced the idea of it at our recent check-in call.? She called it a ¡°covid convo¡± (which wasn¡¯t accurate, but that¡¯s what came in the moment); RayRay reframed it as an ¡°elephant¡± convo.

?

    • For our weekend, it will be a HEART-SHARE CIRCLE space (which doesn¡¯t mean it will be all rainbows and roses¡­ as we know, heart work can be hard work)
      • Specifically, this time will be an opportunity for all of us to share our truths (and be witnessed by our sisters) about how the last two years have been for us.?
      • It will be an opportunity to speak of our own experiences, name any judgments that may have been getting in the way of connection to SSR women and/or others.?
      • It will NOT be a conversation but a circle process with the intent to share and witness.
      • From it, each of us can choose (or not) to lay down/let go of/move through/explore/heal whatever may be standing between each of us and whatever kind of connection is wanted with the SSR women.?

?

      • We will move into that space very intentionally, and you will be given additional information as we get closer to the weekend.?
        • In the meantime, please know that great care and love is going into the planning of this part of the weekend, especially.? We are doing our best to invite everyone in in a way that will work for them and the space.
    • We are asking for curiosity and openness¡­ and, again, there will be more info in the coming weeks.
      • If you are noticing anything coming up (fear, excitement, hesitancy, anger, etc. etc.), we invite you to be with those feels and see what you might learn from them.? It might even be helpful to take notes.

?

Finally, the cost of the weekend will be in the range of $15-$40.? We¡¯re still working those details out.

?

With love,

The Tri-Fos

(Gretchen, Paige, Noreen)

Yay!? Life Rewards Action!? High-five!

Love,
Meggie
