The Sacred Motherhood Circle: How to Connect Yourself to Your Identity and Your Purpose as a Mother or Caregiver.
Motherhood transforms us. It’s a spiritual journey that requires us to explore the depths of our psyches and our souls. We are asked to be radically honest with ourselves about who we are, where we came from, and who we want to be. We must face the loss of our old identity and reckon with the emergence of our new one.
For all the joys of new motherhood, this is often not a smooth or easy transition. As we make our way from the Maiden archetype to the Mother archetype, it’s important that we have a safe and sacred space in which to explore, discover, and grow. We also need the support and camaraderie of other mothers and caregivers as we make this journey. The Sacred Motherhood Circle at Whole Mother Therapy is just such a space. It’s a guided communal pathway for mothers and caregivers to connect with their new identity and deeper purpose.
The predatory systems we live in prevent us from being seen and supported as mothers and caregivers.
It’s not an accident that these patriarchal, capitalistic systems have enforced a reality where birthing folx and parents are not resourced. Our nervous systems do not even have time to integrate the tremendous changes that come with birth and postpartum. This can make us feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected. We are then expected to navigate unhelpful illusions and barriers that prevent us from finding our true identity. The result is that we become so used to simply surviving within these systems that we forget our essence. And we can’t even see what other possibilities are out there.
Yet after giving birth and/or becoming a mother or caregiver, we are gifted with a fresh opportunity to grow in foundational ways. We can work to shatter the illusions and barriers, reclaiming ourselves and our power in the process. This transformation requires tending, patience, and rituals that honor the death of who we were and the birth of who emerges.
Creating a Space of Safety and Support Is Essential to Shifting Our Identity and Forging a New Path for Ourselves.
The Sacred Motherhood Circle is the perfect environment for this work. It’s a space for mothers, caregivers, and birthing folx to come together and connect with their true identity. Through this guided pathway, we validate the losses, the fears, and the joys associated with motherhood. We honor the massive transitions and transformations you are undergoing.
We provide a safe space for you to share your story, and together we create rituals and ceremonies to celebrate your evolution as a mother or caregiver. The Sacred Motherhood Circle supports you as you shift and grow, helping you tap into your inner wisdom and create a more conscious relationship with yourself.
Mothering Is a Revolutionary Act in the Service of Manifesting a Newly Expansive and Inclusive World.
In the safety of the Sacred Motherhood Circle, we come together to channel all the ways that motherhood is a revolutionary act. By recognizing the power you carry as a mother or caregiver, you reclaim your voice and connect with your intuition. By creating healing rituals, you’re able to mourn what you lost when you became a parent and celebrate what was born in you. It’s a powerful and sacred journey toward discovering and embracing your true identity.
In a healing and supportive environment, you’re encouraged to create a new path of motherhood defined by your authentic voice and values. In the face of the systems that oppress you, you join with other mothers and caregivers within the Sacred Motherhood Circle to create a new reality.
We Invite You Into This Sacred Space of Transformation and Discovery.
As mothers, caregivers, and revolutionary folx in the Sacred Motherhood Circle, we learn to own a new identity and purpose. This new reality is rooted in connection, community, and love. We gather to honor those mothers, matriarchs, and caregivers who came before us and lay the foundation for this rebellious work. And we take that wisdom and pay it forward in the service of a more accepting, resourced, and safe community for the next generations.
Together, we step into the Sacred Motherhood Circle to help each other manifest a vision of motherhood worthy of our fullest hearts and deepest roots. There is no more profound portal to pass through.
