Pages : 140
Book Description
As more and more women rise up into their leadership and take ownership of their truth and their voice, they feel a strong pull toward being in circle with other women. The power of women gathering is immeasurable. There is more demand than supply right now so we need more women to raise their hands and be the leaders of circles, creating safe, sacred space for women to come together in sisterhood. When women come to Sistership Circle to learn how to lead circles, the #1 question they have is: what's the structure and what rituals should I use to create a powerful and potent experience? So we curated a group of talented facilitators to each contribute a ritual that they love, as well as inspirational stories on why they circle. This handbook is designed to empower and inspire more women to lead circles using these beautiful rituals, and is specifically focused on the summer season. Many of these rituals can be done individually to invoke the divine feminine and connect deeper with oneself. We hope you use these for your own special ceremonies, with girlfriends, or in your women's circles.
