Unveiling HERvision... and how it unfolded...

Our first circle completed.

What a beautiful experience and expression of all those that attended. I am so honoured and left feeling today a sense of wholeness and community with all those that came. Thank you.

I encourage you to join. It’s the whole reason why I’m doing this. I am called to honour and celebrate our divine human spirit, we need to sit and gather in circle. This is how we activate our powers of self reflection + conscious choice and how we each align to free-will connecting to wisdom.

Together last night, we raised our vibrations, as all the Sistership Circle Facilitators held circle during the full moon.

It is no coincidence that my circle was held on the 13th, the number of the goddess divinity. It is why “unlucky 13” came to be all those years ago, as the masculine is in fear of the divine feminine… burning witches at the stake for connecting to mother nature, grandmother moon, father sky, and sister + brother stars.

I was deeply moved and felt the energetics of the container we co-created. The tears flowed down my face as I read the invocation, meaning each and every word spoken. It is the vibration of my being: resonating + channeling + collaborating.

If you are curious, seeking connection, you are welcome to join us. This is for all ages of women with a womb space. We are all on this journey together, and I would love to join you.

The next circle is on December 20th, where will be honouring the Winter Solstice and collaborating in a bath salts ceremony. Space is limited. Click here for more info.

Much love + gratitude,
Erika

What can I expect from circle?

There is SO much magic that happens in circle. It is an evolution. Again, it reminds me so much of pregnancy + labour + partum. An evolution.

So what exactly happens?

The point of circle is to give every women in the world the experience of real and authentic sisterhood where she is loved, accepted and celebrated as herself. Through the sisterhood, women gain confidence in being a woman, claim their feminine leadership and develop meaningful, deep relationships with other women.

We sit in a circle (on the floor with a cushion) and talk, listen, and share our stories. We listen and do not interrupt and do no "fixing" when a person is sharing. What you get out of this is hearing other perspectives, sometimes we are emotionally moved, sometimes they align with our own perspectives, or challenge them. When we have an emotional experience I ask that you sit with it, feeling it and noticing where it comes from. What is the language around it? Can you see why you're moved by it? Where it comes from? This dialogue is really important to our individual growth. When we each share, guaranteed there is someone else needing to hear what you have to say for their own growth. When we have these experiences there comes a sisterhood + sense of community when we can land as our authentic selves.

Each circle has a theme, and will have re-occurring themes like full + new moon circles. We talk about how we connect or don't connect to these themes, what our take is on the question posed to the group, there's some journaling, meditation, and movement (stretching, breath work, body movement).

I hope this answers your question, and hope to see you at a circle.

Much love,
Erika

How do we stay OUT of competition?

Have you been THAT person or know someone who has a natural inclination to “one up” in a story? Sometimes, if I’m being real here, I’ve caught myself doing it. It happens. We’re human.

In circle, it’s really important to give space for others to feel comfortable to experience the depth of their moment. Here are my circle guidelines.

1. Resonate, not compete. You have permission to be real, raw, vulnerable, and authentic.
   You have permission for self-expression.

2. We are co-creating sisterhood, share Ownership. We all hold up the integrity of the group, and you are responsible for your own growth and expansion.
   We are weaving this sisterhood together. Our authentic vulnerability resonates together.

3. This is a safe + confidential space. We do not share names or stories of our sisters. We can ask for permission and the sister has the right to say no.
   We do not console, unless the sister is asking for it.

4. Speak-up when feeling triggered + out of alignment. Let go of "suffering in silence", lean into being vulnerable. Navigate where this trigger is coming from.

5. Connection over promotion. We support each others' work from a place of authentic connection. This is so you don't feel spammy energy. We love hearing what you are up to, pls be respectful and mindful.

6. We will not "fix" anything. This is a hard one, especially for mamas.
   Let us trust that you have the answer within. If you are still searching or lost, please give permission for "fixes".

7. Play on our edge, and honour this container. You are responsible for how you show up. Being vulnerable is always so hard.
   My challenge to you is do not suffer in silence, instead play on your edge of vulnerable sensation.
   You are not alone.

8. I commit to tell the truth. Be honest with first yourself, and then others.
   We hear you, sister. We see you.
   Healing from the inside starts with truth.

9. I commit to opening my heart. When we are feeling vulnerable, sometimes before we recognize the feeling, we shut it down.
   I commit to opening my heart, when I'm shutting down.

10. I commit to me + tribe. We are hear for each other. This space was created to be the container in which we connect to ourselves + sisters.
    We do this through integrity, respect, and vulnerability.

What happens when someone breaks one of the rules? I gently remind you: it’s not scary, you don’t get fired or reprimanded. We’re all learning how to be in circle. It is allll good.

Alright sista, that’s it for now.
