Why we gather

Body of Fire is an invitation. Receive it from others who’ve already joined the circle:

“As someone at the very beginning of peri-menopause who had no idea what to expect, Body of Fire offered me an almost miraculous opportunity to grow, learn, and be in community with other women at literally every stage of the menopause journey.”

“Learning from these wise women - elders and peers alike - witnessing their journeys and realizing how woven together our experiences are was just the affirmation I needed as I begin to walk this path.”

“The conversation around menopause can be overwhelming and confusing, mostly because it has been a continuation of a commodified experience of something being ‘broken’ or ‘malfunctioning’ that needs fixing. This workshop did not feel like [that]... instead it was a container that allowed me to hear myself over the chatter of what was wrong and needed fixing.”

“The Body of Fire retreat was one of the most skillfully and thoughtfully held containers I’ve experienced.” 

“I highly recommend the Body of Fire retreat to anyone seeking community, ceremony, and safety during one of the most profound and challenging transformations of a woman’s life: the great Femipause, a reclamation of our power and sovereignty.”

“ I felt so held and nurtured, and was allowed space to move some old beliefs through, to make space for what is next!”

“I felt very grounded in my body and mind after this experience. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to connect with a somatic experience of the midlife journey - even if they don’t think they need it!”

 “Body of Fire was the rite of passage I dreamt of but did not have moving through menopause. I came back home feeling profoundly shifted, rich in community, and ready to step into my wisdom years.” 

“I feel buoyed by the energetic support of this network and actually excited to enter this life stage more emotionally and spiritually prepared, with real tools that I can use for my own self care and growth.”

“I left feeling nourished, held, celebrated, and seen. If this much transformation and connection can happen in an introductory workshop, I can only imagine what a three-day retreat would be like. Sign me up.”
