One night in April when my mind was thinking about all that I needed to do, the idea of facilitating a retreat came to mind. As I pondered what the topic could be, the book 'Women Who Run with the Wolves' I first learned about when my began my women's circle Creatrix training popped in my head AND then the idea of the International Wolf Center in Ely being the perfect location sealed the deal that I NEEDED to do this in January 2025 during the Wolf Full Moon. I reached out to my tribe of Ely practitioners and besties in Minneapolis to gage interest and it was an astounding YES! I immediately contacted the Wolf Center who loved the idea and I was able to secure lodging at the Stay Inn Ely for out of town attendees.
My intuition spoke loudly to me when I saw the book title, "Release Your Inner Wild" by Dana Mahon, that I had to read more. I had already selected the name of my business a couple of years earlier and knew I had to have the book for obvious reasons. It arrived in the mail, I read the first few pages and the words INSTANTLY resonated with me! They were the exact reasons why I chose my business name! After devouring the book contents I felt compelled to share the wisdom I gained with other women. Attendees will receive a sample vial of my signature anointing oil 'Inner Power - I choose ME'.
Divination tools have long been a part of history. This workshop will provide tips & tools to help you gain clarity and make better decisions in your life. Using these sacred tools can help guide you towards your goals and desires and help you trust your intuition and inner knowing!
To manifest is to co-create with an energy greater than you. By connecting to this Divine energy, we call in what we desire. Imagine that you hold in your hands the power to change your reality - that you are capable of creating your highest vision and desire. A Manifestation ritual is a process of bringing your ideas, concepts, visions, and dreams from your inner world into your outer world, so you can enjoy it with your physical body. What you might not realize is that you manifest things all the time without even thinking about it. Look around you. Everything in your surroundings was once a thought in your head before it manifested into your reality. Your home, your business, the meals you cook, your clients, your partner, the trips you go on, events you attend - you manifested all of it! You combined a vision with action and manifested that vision into a reality!

To honor National Monarch Butterfly day I will be facilitating a monarch butterfly painting class. Each year on the first Saturday in May, National Start Seeing Monarchs Day raises awareness to preserve the Monarch butterfly and prevent it from being added to the endangered species list. The butterfly effect rests on the notion that the world is deeply interconnected, such that one small occurrence can influence a much larger complex system.
Gardeners have been taking pleasure in savoring all the gardening catalogs that have arrived in the mail over the winter. We will soon be preparing our garden beds to sow this years' seeds.

Join me as we celebrate spring and all the joyfulness we can experience in creating a healing garden. Plant aromas effect our brains in surprisingly and healthful ways. Adding potent botanicals to your garden can create a restorative haven.

In this workshop you'll learn how to paint your own rock wood mandala to promote relaxation, calm the nervous system, invoke positive energies and balance body energies. No painting experience required. Registration fee includes workshop + material supplies.

Why is the Winter Solstice so powerful? The Winter Solstice is one of the most powerful points of the year when the axis of the Earth pauses, shifts and moves in the opposite direction. For three days around the solstice points we may physically, mentally and spiritually experience this stand still and shift of direction. The Winter Solstice is a time to set the tone for the new year and remind yourself of what you hope to accomplish. This night is considered the seasonal dark night of the soul. Spiritually, it's a time to honor both the light and the darkness that resides within each of us.

August's Sturgeon Supermoon is a time for all of us to take a step back and really appreciate everything. Supermoons occur because the Moon has a slightly elliptical orbit around earth. So there is a point every single month when it is at its closest to our planet and thus looks slightly larger in the sky. Join in on this Full Moon Women's Circle to express gratitude for the bounties of nature, and appreciate the fruits of all seasons and the unique beauties of the cycles of life. This will be one of two Supermoons in 2023. There will also be a full blue moon on Wednesday August 30th at 8:35 PM. It will be the second of two Supermoons in 2023. The second August Full Moon will be the full moon in Pisces. This moon is called a full blue moon because it’s the second full moon in a calendar month. It could also be referred to as a super blue moon because the second August Full Moon will also be a Supermoon.
The simple act of using a signature scent perfume you've created for yourself can be an act of self-care. Create a rollerball scent that will always be associated with you! Our sense of smell is the most direct way in which our emotions can be triggered. Once we have discovered that certain essences make us feel good and can actually enhance our sense of well-being, we can blend them into a perfume so the subtle aroma can be with us everyday. At one time, every perfume would have been skillfully blended from the finest essential oils, and were an indulgence on the psyche and on the purse. Today, perfumes created in a lab have become more synthetic. Essential oils can be used to create a natural alternative to traditional perfumes. Essential oil-based perfumes are easy to make, and the number of combinations you can create is nearly limitless! You can use essential oils from flowers to make feminine, floral scents, or essential oils from trees to make woodsy and musky scents, and so on. Or you can mix and match different types of oils in unique combinations to create your own “signature scent!”

Join in on the moon before the Summer Solstice as it relates to good fortune, optimism and generosity to release all so you can adventure into summer and grab opportunities as they come along.

January's full moon, known the Wolf Moon, is named as such because of legends from long ago. It's thought that January's full moon came to be known as the Wolf Moon because wolves were more likely to be heard howling at this time, as a way to mark territory, hunt, and find other pack members. The full moon represents a time to harvest your intentions that have been set and making sure they materialize. This moon comes in the dead of winter and is a time for transformation and introspection. This is a great time to reflect on your goals for this year and what you want to improve in your life. It is a time of figuring out what you need in order to have a successful life. It's also a time of seeing what's missing and finding truth in what you long for. It's about sacrifice and finding personal truth and discovering your purpose and how it relates to the bigger picture and society as a whole.

What is Ecstatic Dance? It's a type of sacred movement that helps women connect to their bodies and feel into their primal selves. You don't need to know how to dance as the powerful music is KEY to allow us to move. I LOVE ecstatic dance! Every culture in the world has had some sort of dance component to their culture so it is appropriate to say that as women, we have a natural call to dance, move and shake. It is in our bones to move and flow to a beat, and women LOVE to express this! Join me in enjoying a beautiful fall evening by the fire, listening to the beat of the music, letting go and feeling free!
The Harvest Full Moon represents a chance to embrace new opportunities, create goals for yourself, and manifest your own destiny. This moon allows you to carefully curate new beginnings by leaving behind any negative habits or practices that no longer serve you. This full moon has been a starting point for many individuals to amplify their energy, reclaim their callings, and release anything blocking their own inner light path from shining. Post Harvest Moon, the moon wanes. This process from a full to waning moon is symbolic of the opening and closing of chapters in your life. Join the September Women's Circle and we release and manifest away! So, what have you been harvesting? What is ripe and ready? What needs to be pruned to allow for continued growth?
