Begin a journey into the world of the Wild Woman.
Wild Women series is a monthly workshop for sharing, resting, connecting, and awakening the wild woman within us. Led by Marcela and inspired by Women Who Run with the Wolves, the classic text on myths and stories of the Wild Woman feminine by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés.
We will spend one month exploring each story and working on aspects of the Wild Woman, including creativity, intuition, passion, and the spiritual elements of feminine power. We will listen to stories, journal, share, and practice yoga nidra meditation.
This unique combination of yoga nidra meditation, storytelling, sharing, and journaling is restorative and heartening. It helps women find their vision and their voice. The practice of yoga nidra gives us the space just to be. This ancient practice belongs to South Asian peoples and was brought to the West in the 1970s by Satchitananda. It also provides the space to carve out a rested life for ourselves.
Bring the medicine of the story home to the body and embody your Wild Woman. Workshops will include:
One 2.5-hour monthly Zoom meeting on the third Saturday of the month - 9:30 am to 11:30 pm PST
Zoom recording
Story and exploration of the Wild Woman archetype
A yoga nidra meditation, each themed to the story
Supportive exercises, journal practices, optional sharing circle, and dreamwork
Weekly prompts exploring themes in the story
One additional 20-minute live rest practice session between the second and third week
Private Facebook Group for those who want to stay connected between sessions

DEEPEN YOUR WILD WOMAN PRACTICE
The comprehension of this Wild Woman nature is not a religion but a practice.
It is a psychology in its truest sense...a knowing of the soul.
Without her, women are without ears to hear soultalk or to register the chiming of their own inner rhythms...
Without her, they forget why they’re here, they hold on when they would best hold out.
Without her, they are silent when they are, in fact, on fire.
She is their regulator, she is their soulful heart, the same as the human heart regulates the physical body.
—Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés
