Why join:
In a culture shaped by productivity, patriarchy, and inherited patterns of harm, Rewilding the Feminine offers a return to embodied feminine wisdom — not as something to perform, but as something to remember.Together, we explore feminine archetypes as living mirrors through somatic practice, shared reflection, and collective witnessing — supporting intuition, inner authority, and what is ready to emerge.
This circle is for women who have completed Centering Circles, or who carry a steady contemplative/embodied practice and feel ready to deepen in community.

Centering Circles are small, steady groups that meet weekly to build the capacity to stay present — especially when life feels uncertain, overwhelming, or fragmented.
Each gathering includes:
• gentle somatic grounding
• guided silent meditation (rooted in Centering Prayer)
• circle listening
Over time, this practice strengthens your ability to meet life from your center — and to look toward humankind with different eyes: with more generosity, and more compassion. Hope becomes connective rather than individual.
Because I believe this: connection is the way we keep hope alive — and keep going.
What Are Centering Circles?
How Centering Circles Have Evolved
I began offering Centering Circles five years ago within the Christian contemplative roots of Centering Prayer, as taught by Cynthia Bourgeault in the lineage of Father Thomas Keating. Those roots still matter to me, and anchor me. In the early years of practicing Centering Prayer, silence became the place I remembered the Love of God — not as something narrow or conditional, but as something expansive, deeply rooted, and real. The practice taught me how to return to the Divine within my heart and body — the Presence that carries me — and to trust that what is most sacred is not far away.
Over time, that listening widened. My practice expanded into somatic healing, decolonial learning, and ancestral remembering — including Celtic study and Indigenous teachings that return us to interdependence with the earth as the ground to our real bodies as a site of the sacred. I’ve come to trust that Presence is expansive. It holds wide and deep. The sacred is woven into breath, body, land, and relationship — and it is available to each of us.
Today, Centering Circles hold a wider, more inclusive posture of listening: meditation, nervous system care, the alchemy of art, held inside the circle of shared humanity and a felt sense of the sacred.
Somatic grounding + nervous system care
Meeting your body with kindness, and learning to trust sensation as part of your inner knowing.
Guided silent meditation
A shared contemplative sit to return again and again—beneath the noise, beneath the effort. Learning the skill of non-judgmental compassion.
Circle listening + witness
A steady practice of sacred witness: being heard without being fixed, held without being managed. Honoring the sacred within our shared humanity.
The Core Elements
How the Container Is Held?
We hold every gathering in the wisdom of the circle — reorganizing hierarchy back into shared humanity.
We circle the way humans long have: around the fire that rises from our hearts. We make room for grief, joy, hope, tenderness, longing — not to fix, but to witness.
We return through the alchemy of art — poetry, story, beauty — and through learning shaped by voices of color who have long taught that liberation begins in the body and is communal, not individual.
Are Centering Circles for Me?
Centering Circles may be for you if you’re longing for a steadier way to meet your life — not by pushing through, but by returning — held in community, and in the kind of connection that helps us see humankind with more generosity.
You don’t need to be “good” at meditation.
You only need a willingness to approach yourself with kindness — and trust that what you need is here, if you choose to listen.
If you’re feeling the pull toward Circle, I encourage you to register soon — groups are intentionally small and once they’re full, they close.
If you’re unsure, schedule a free discovery call and ask whatever is on your mind.
Commitment
Centering Circles are offered in Cycles. Participants register for a full cycle so the group can build trust, consistency, and depth over time.
You are welcome to miss a session if life happens — but the container is designed to be a steady rhythm you can return to again and again.
