Yes, we\u2019re in the thick of holy. \n\nThis weekend I\u2019ve had the chance to drop into this sacred time more deeply. On Friday, Keith and I packed up my white Prius (Amia included, much to her delight) and headed up snowy roads to celebrate our five-year anniversary in a rustic, mountain cabin.\n\nRelationships challenge and grows us more than anything else in this world, making them the holiest aspect of life. It\u2019s a topic that deserves our attention here, especially at this time of year. To help us dive deeper, let\u2019s explore one of the most primal relationships within ourselves. One within our own psyches, between our Inner Critic and our Vulnerable Child. But most especially: the dimension of the Sacred Feminine that begins to blossom from this relationship when we start to heal.\n\nIn this clip, recorded on the second afternoon of our SHE Retreat in Mexico, I shared:\n\n*The 3 main ways we react and defend ourselves when we feel threatened, stressed, or attacked \n\n*What our greatest strength is, as women \n\n*Which voices in your head are running your life (and doing a really bad job at it), and what to do about it \n\n*How to embrace the feminine dimension of meditation\n\n*What Divine Feminine archetypes like Tara and Mother Mary can teach us about Sacred Motherhood (even if you\u2019re not a mom) \n\nI love sharing this fierce, yet feminine, approach to the spiritual path. That\u2019s why I fill all of our monthly retreats with the practices we need to fully embody this, in every area of our lives, in my 9-month women\u2019s spiritual practice community, The SHE School. \n\nIf you\u2019re hungry for daily rituals and simple practices to spark profound shifts in your year ahead, come explore everything we\u2019ll cover in The SHE School 2016. \n\nWhat would your life be like, one year from now, if you went on retreat every month? Who would you be? What would be possible? \n\nWe formally begin in February, but our sanctuary is open now, for a limited time, to welcome you if you\u2019re ready to put yourself on the front burner...starting now. \n\nYou\u2019ll receive a bundle of practice supports, including my Women\u2019s Yoga & Meditation Kits, a Life Design guide (where I share my favorite tools for health, life, business, and love). And, best of all, a live Visioning 2016 tele-retreat on Saturday, December 12th, 2015. \n\nClick here to learn more about The SHE School 2016, and the gorgeous early registration gifts that await you when you sign up now: www.TheSHESchool.com\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/1225791a-ad68-417e-a15b-50188dec8f82/artworks-ttuzibyba2ax1fv3-76xuha-t3000x3000.jpg"}
