Corinna's Corner
The wheel of the year is turning to the cold and dark months. Many traditional cultures celebrate this time around Halloween (Oct 31) and the Day of the Dead (Nov 1). As a time when the veils between the worlds thin, we can offer gratitude to our ancestors and beloved dead.
And the winter ahead calls for inactivity, for introspection, for rest. To be in harmony we must create space in our lives to slow down. It encourages us to curl up by the fire, get cozy under the comforter, drink warm tea and eat hearty soups. And sleep...sleep late in fact. The ancient Chinese texts advise people to go to sleep early and rise late, after the sun's rays have warmed the atmosphere, to replenish their Qi or life force.
It is in this process of NOT doing that we empower ourselves to recharge and create better health - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. As we replenish ourselves in harmony with the season, then we will burst forth with new life this coming spring.

2011 October Conference ~ More Women Than Ever!
It is a rare and unique opportunity to spend a weekend with 900 women, all growing the Wise Woman Tradition. The weekend - with profound teachers and beautiful sisters - fed our spirits with ceremony, our souls with music and kinship, our minds with useful information and our bodies with nourishing food and authentic movement.
More than that, it fueled us with appreciation and gratitude for the many luminous threads that create the web of this life. Thank you for being a unique flower in our beautiful garden, and delighting in the bond between each of us!
"One of the most uplifting and inspiring conferences I've been to."
"So transformational! I plan to attend from here on out!"
"Yet again, a magical experience full of healing and sisterhood."
"Every year I leave the conference feeling enthusiastic and full of knowledge about how to take better care of myself and my family. That means a lot to me"
