Circle of Women

Circle of Women(new version on  Spotify)

This is our first fully experiential journey around the Map of 5 Choices that underpins every aspect of the TreeSisters campaign. Doing this process can change your whole perception of life - linking the feminine principle to both climate change and its healing, and will certainly deepen your experience and understanding of TreeSisters. It's like sowing a seed into your body and heart that is designed to generate more soul based creativity and feminine wisdom. You will need 5 cushions laid out in a circle so that when you lie down like a star fish, your hands, feet and head are each on a cushion. Turn off your phone and discover...

'Walking the Map' : embodying the 5 choices and exploring inner balance

This is a way of feeling into what you are ready to let go of in your life that holds you back,  and what is ready to be birthed and nurtured through you in support of your fullest self expression and vital life. If you need a change, a boost or a shift of gear then this is for you. It is a whole process that needs to be fully engaged in, so turn off your phone and ensure that you wont be interrupted for at least 40 minutes. It will take you deep, and your state will be altered afterwards, so no leaping up to drive!! Prepare to relax, to discover and to open....xxC

Rebirth And Nurture Meditation using the Map of 5 Choices

'When a thousand Goddesses gather, the Diving Feminine will rebirth through their combined energies'

This is a Tibetan myth very close to the beating heart of TreeSisters. One of the main reason that we do these calls is because we believe that when women wake up to who we really are, and then come together consciously that our combined energies become a gateway for something greater than ourselves - and that this greater something is what's needed to support the great turning.

This call will be a chance to drop deeply into meditation together and then open to the energies of the Divine Feminine - in what ever form she comes to and through you.

This is for all women - no need to have been on one of our calls before - we simply show up, relax, open and allow what wants to happen. They are beautiful, supportive and strengthening.

1000 Goddesses Full Moon Call

This is a simple, effective, grounding practice that can support you in any moment to feel stronger, more nature connected, more present, confident and alive. Try it every day for a week - and see how different you feel....

The Inner Tree - Yes to Life - Daily Six Minute Practice

This is a practice to draw natures increasing light to the parts of us that we long to grow and nourish. It is super simple.

Daily 6 minute self nurture practice (winter to spring)

An invitation to follow nature and nourish yourself, this call is a deep drop into winter's rhythms.

By encouraging us all to draw our energies back into our roots to nourish the seeds of whatever we are growing for the year ahead. 

This is visioning time, dream time, healing time and your time. Every TreeSister call is a chance to feel more deeply into what becomes possible when women drop out of ego, into the rich expansiveness of our shared energies. 

This is about weaving a new consciousness and seeding a new reality - for ourselves and for so much more than ourselves.

The second part of this call will be another chance to meet Jewels our teacher for Earthing the Moon - Reclaiming the Inner gateways of Feminine Potency, Creativity, Sexuality and Spirituality - the most radical, unique and edge walking course we could offer, and the most fundamentally life changing. 

These are the ancient feminine mystery teachings about how to understand and inhabit our woman's bodies - and how to plug it back into the main frame of the natural world so that we can live as connected, nature nourished, embodied women.

Nourishing the Seed Full Moon Meditation and Earthing the Moon Q&A

Winter Holds the Key to Feminine Wisdom

Winter is the womb
Of the soul’s unfolding;
An invitation for us
To presence our possibility
As we rejoice, dream, and imagine
The life within us longing to emerge.

This month's New Moon call will begin with an introduction to the Winter Solstice and a guided reflection that connects us personally to the deeper wisdom and gifts of this season. Winter summons us to turn inward and explore the realm of our dreams and visions for the unfolding year. What are yours?


2014 Winter Solstice Reflection Call

Introduction:
We created the New Moon calls as an offering to the sisterhood and as a way of connecting us all more fully to a nature-based rhythm.  It is also our way of sharing how TreeSisters is embodying the Feminine Principle and Living Systems it its organizational unfolding.  
Winter Solstice Organizational update is on our blog for those interested in the details of our journey from the Equinox to the Solstice.

Winter’s Summons:
Winter is the time of the deep drop into the Feminine Principle and archetypal energies most conducive to healing, creativity and new birth.  Feminine energies are stirred in all of life on the planet as we enter a period of gestation and presencing our potential.  
New Moon at Winter Solstice is the visioning moon for the entire year.
The soul, having been purified and realigned in the Autumn, is now ready to seed, gestate, and give birth to new possibilities and potential that will unfold through the rest of the year.  This season is most aligned with the Divine Feminine and awakening it within our souls is the primary energy at play.
Winter is a visionary time in which we step back from outer activities in the world and tend the inner plane.  Winter is the womb from which we will birth the coming year and all that we most long to creatively manifest, which is what makes the holiday madness so many experience all the more insidious.  At the very time the universe wants to support our inward journey where we can conceive and gestate our unfolding soul, cultural expectations have most women in the shopping malls, wrapping presents, and cooking large dinners.
We wanted to offer a holy pause for women during this time of year to tend the inner plane of the soul from which our most authentic lives can emerge.
Winter summons us to turn inward and explore the realm of our dreams and visions for the unfolding year.  

The Journey 
by Mary Oliver

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice--
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do--
determined to save
the only life you could save.

December New Moon Call - Winter is the Wisdom

This winter TreeSisters is exploring how we can activate our network at the next level. On the December and January New Moon call we explored what role the Crone archetype wants to play within TreeSisters and began a collective conversation about how to call forth one another's gifts on behalf of TreeSisters. 

In the February New Moon call we will resume the Starfish conversation.

February New Moon Call 2015

Our quarterly solstice / equinox calls are designed to bring you into the heart of TreeSisters as an organization. 

It is our chance to share how we are embodying living systems and the Feminine Principle and it is your chance to connect directly with Clare and Edveeje. 

New Moon Call - Summer Solstice At TreeSisters

Reverence is a quality of being that every cell of our bodies deserves - but is seldom gifted. If you could regularly bathe your whole body in the reverence that you feel at the foot of the greatest tree, the top of the most wild waterfall, the newness of the most perfect baby, the heart-lift of the most exquisite melody - do you think it could serve your health and harmony?

Our full moon calls are free gifts for women who want to nourish themselves, and connect to their bodies and each other at full moon - for strengthening, for support and for sisterhood. You are welcomed:-)

This call will be a gifting of reverence through body and nature connection - following your intuition, feeling into your bodies needs and then answering them through connection to landscape and beauty. It will be luxury, nurturing, meditative and soulful. If you need filling up, or need to love your body more than you do, then this is for you.

To join our moon calls simply fill in this form and you will be sent call in details before the call http://eepurl.com/9Y7gf


Reverence Full Moon Call

It's high summer, slipping over the edge in the north, as those down under start to move towards spring. It is an ideal time either in fullness of summer or darkness of winter to seed our deepest longings into the unseen realms out of which all things manifest.

This month's free Full Moon is called Invocation. This call will be an opportunity to follow and feel through your body, what the truest most authentic longings are in terms of everything that you wish to call into your life.

How often to we really feel for what is wanted, seed it powerfully and then water it fully. If you would like to take some time to really feel towards the you that you long to be, then this call is for you.

Full Moon Call ~ Invocation July 2015

As we spiral towards the end of summer - our bodies are still opening to receive all the light, warmth and beauty needed to hold us through the darkening as it comes.

This meditation is very body based and very bliss based - a seeking for pleasure in nature to resource and fill us up - a strengthening of our listening through the physical so that we can be guided into nourishment. 

Nature Bliss - Full Moon Call

Women everywhere are recognizing that a wild intelligence is arising through our beings and bodies – one that holds keys to a different future for humanity.

This introductory call is your chance to feel into our upcoming five week The Forest of the Wild Feminine course and its unique relevance to you at this time. It will be a combination of experiential practice, personal enquiry and clarification of the course itself.

The Forest of the Wild Feminine ~ Introductory Call

A Feminine Path to Wholeness through the Earth Wisdom of the Four Directions

Woman Embracing the Wild ~ Free Online Event

Edveeje's third and final call in her "Sabbath of Women" series will be “Nature: The Daily Sabbath Invitation”: an exploration into how Nature summons us to rest and renewal on a daily basis. We will identify the ways in which we can tap into Nature’s rhythm in our daily lives as a means of making the Sabbath principle part of our core lifestyle.

New Moon Online Retreat ~ Nature: The Daily Sabbath Invitation

This call is an exploration of our willingness to expand into the subtle dimensions of ourselves as women - to feel for our edges and softly blur them - to move beyond our know experience of reality into an active invitation to the more that is the vast multi dimensionality of life.

If you want to embody the sky and discover the limitlessness of your capacity to connect to creation, then this guided exploration is for you.

This call is free, it's open to everyone, and it's part of TreeSisters commitment to help 'water' the tree of our network so that we can all feel more connected, more supported and alive on our journey of becoming.

Full Moon Online Retreat ~ Embodying Sky

The Heroine’s Way – Spring New Moon Series

Do you long to be part of an epic story and to experience yourself as the heroine of your own life? 

Do you long for an adventure alluring enough to capture your entire heart, mind, body, and soul? 

The Heroine’s Way is a uniquely feminine and nature-based journey into the heart of our longing and desire as women.

*******************************

Edveeje guides us on our second journey into the Heroine's Way: When A Woman’s Desire Sprouts Above Ground

We will explore the ways in which we can tend our soul’s summons and cultivate our deepest desires through the nature-based practice of sense navigation. We will compost the soil of our lives in such a way that we deepen our connection to joy and enable our souls’ desires to guide our life decisions.

New Moon Online Retreat ~ When A Woman’s Desire Sprouts Above Ground

This is the final session in Clare's Spring free full moon series to support the collective re-wilding journey that is the fundamental invitation of TreeSisters. 

Over the last three full moons, she invited us to explore our relationship with our sensuality (Embodying River) our grounded power (Embodying Earth) and our limitlessness (Embodying Sky) so that we could deepen in our nature connectedness as treesisters.

Embodying River ~ Friday 20th May 

This month we are returning to the river for more self discovery. Having embodied Earth and Sky - the River has given more of her gifts and we will journey there again together.

Embodying River is about surrender to our own life force - the river of vital energy that longs to flow unchecked through us at all times. This is about bowing to our own mystery - how much of ourselves we feel able to live and embody. This is about letting go of the dams that hold us back and feeling for the river banks of our own clarity that support our fullest expression.

We drop deeply into the sensations and flows of our own bodies and emotions and allow the river to inform us about ourselves and our capacities to live in joy, fullness, abundance and health. This call is open to everyone.

These meditative journeys are designed to plug us back into nature as our greater Self - as our teacher and primary resource.

In this free online event acclaimed author, Mary Reynolds Thompson will initiate us into an experience of the five archetypal landscapes of the feminine soul within The Wild Soul Mandala which helps us begin the journey of reclaiming our innate wildness. 

A Wild Soul Woman 2016

In 'The River of Health' Clare, the founder of TreeSisters will guide us in an embodied journey back into the natural river of our life force and love. We will then dive into an exploration of our own vitality, sensuality and pleasure seeking the areas that we might have consciously or unconsciously cut off our own flow. 

This meditative journey is about opening and softening - feeling for the limitations - and allowing our flow to dismantle all that is ready to be alchemized and released. 

This is a tool that you can use again and again in your own healing back to wholeness - a loving, relaxing and illuminating journey into deeper relationship with yourself and your own vital life force as teacher and well spring of health.

Full Moon Online Retreat ~ The River Of Health

In this month's full moon online retreat, 'The River of Wealth' we will start by surrendering into the river of our own life force and love as a place of fullness and infinite capacity. Then we'll invite the deeper patterns that exist within our relationship to lack and plenty in all areas of abundance to show up in our rivers, so that we can explore where and how we have cut ourselves off.

Full Moon Online Retreat ~ River Of Wealth

TreeSisters is a collective exploration into what becomes possible when millions of women remember who and what we really are - and then direct that collectively towards the greening of our world. Thank you so much for helping to build this global sisterhood and movement.

In this nurturing hour:

~ Edveeje will explore the nature wisdom available to us in Summer and how we can harness it to celebrate our inner harvest. She will also share the highlights of our organizational journey from the Spring Equinox to Summer Solstice.

~ Clare will lead us through an embodied practice of opening into Summer energy, exploring our relationship to light, beauty and newness to deepen self-awareness and recommit to inviting nature’s gifts into our lives.

~ We'll complete with a sharing circle where you can share your ideas and questions about TreeSisters.
