Here in the northern hemisphere, this marks the halfway point between winter and spring. We\u2019re in the time of the year when the seeds deep inside the earth, like all the cells in our bodies, start to turn towards the light. \n\nThese seasonal touchstones offer us chances to pause and reflect. Winter--the season of hibernation, gestation, and visioning--urges us to prioritize stillness, inner listening, and patience with what feels gritty and uncomfortable. It\u2019s hard, I know. \n\nBecause, even if you\u2019re not experiencing winter geographically, you\u2019re nose-to-nose with transition and uncertainty, and I came across something that I think you\u2019ll find helpful. \n\nLast week we welcomed women between 26 and 65, from 14 countries, into this year\u2019s SHE School. One of the things that I shared with the group this past week was a SHE Talk on our theme for February, \u201cLeaving Your Normal Life.\u201d The first step along our 9-part Heroine\u2019s Journey, the central lesson of this month is that a woman\u2019s initiation into greater wisdom and power always begins with a crisis.\n\nAs my team was preparing this audio for our SHE School sisters, they voiced to me that the message I offer in it is so valuable and relevant for the time we\u2019re currently living in that I should share a slice of it with all of you.\n\nSo please enjoy, as a gift from me to you, an impromptu podcast episode\u2026..\n\nIn the clip from the first month\u2019s talk in this year\u2019s SHE School, you will learn: how to come to terms with our fundamental aloneness and groundlessness; why we need safe harbors during times of transition; a Tibetan prayer that offers an inspiring perspective on your suffering; the disposition every mature woman must take to wake up from the nightmare of addictive accomplishment and perfectionism.\n\nMay these teachings offer some salve and strength for your spirit as we step into the second half of this season, together.\n\nAnd\u2026.if you\u2019d still like to partake in this year\u2019s SHE School journey, it's actually not too late for you to join us!\n\nI can\u2019t wait to support you through whatever transition you\u2019re facing this year. Here\u2019s where to step into The SHE School 2017 http://thesheschool.com","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/9ce73fff-d0a6-4cb4-a81d-e21aa34d4a96/artworks-ttuzibyba2ax1fv3-76xuha-t3000x3000.jpg"}
