Cultivating a Mind of Wisdom

Together we will spend these 6 weeks exploring the teachings of the yoga tradition, somatic movement, meditation, and breath with a deep anchoring in myth and folklore to explore what it is to cultivate our sweetest inner transmission.

We attribute most often high wisdom to the elders to the crone and her consort. In these troubling times we are called to become the elders we seek. To cultivate an inner fortitude, forbearance, and clear seeing.

To connect to the bone knowing and the bone memory that has held humanity since before there was a "long time ago."

Grab your pen and paper, something warm to wear by the fire, gather what you'll need for the journey and lets go.
