Peace Circle: My Mothers, My Self

June 22, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm

mother-1039765_640Rare is the relationship that offers as much influence, emotional engagement and overlays in our lives as with our mothers. It is she who gave us life and birth. In all ways she shared of herself for our existence – from sharing her own vital force to help us create cells, from breath to breath, from putting clothes on us – our mothers literally will always be a part of who we are. It is from her that we had to cut the umbilicus and begin to breathe on our own.

The intricate and complex tapestry which is our relationships with our mothers holds a vastness of heartfelt stories, archetypes and psychological patterning. This tapestry has shaped the very essence of who we are and how we learned to love. Marianne Williamson says that women must now recognize we are no longer mothers to just our own children, but that ALL WOMEN are mothers to children all over the world. All children of the world need all women as mothers. And perhaps we may wish to add that all species’ babies need our mother selves to be vitally present and engaged in the life of the planet. Many of us have had more than one mother (i.e. through adoptive, in-laws, stepmothers, spiritual mothers, mothers we chose, mothers who chose us, etc.).

bonding-1407833_640In this Peace Circle, we will share those stories that awaken us to the collective power of the Mother’s true love to care for and bless all her children. Through stories, guided meditation and ceremony, we will uplift that mother tapestry to carry forward the best of who we are and the love we share for all children with passion and peace in our hearts. Join us in this sacred place to heal our hearts and discover our true essence.

Invite a friend into this budding community where we gather heart with heart, story with story, inner light with inner light.

Again and again, I re-learn there is always something magical that unfolds in sharing stories of the heart in circle. The whole, the interconnection, is more than the individual story. The whole ~ the Circle is healing. Shirley Lynn Martin

Circle Facilitators:

My name is Shirley Lynn Martin and I’m passionate about activating peace in our hearts and ways of being. I’m passionate about creating sacred space, where together, we develop our collective wisdom to best create a culture of peace and right relationship in every area of our lives.

I have partnered with Karen to create Peace Circles. As a facilitator, I bring 20 years of experience as a Soul Coach, Reiki Master/Teacher, whole life therapist and ordained Reverend. Peace Circles provides a great opportunity for me to bring together my training, my passion, purpose and wisdom. I’m grateful for my diverse formal (as well as informal) training, especially in the field of ‘Circle work’ from some of the best trainers in the field. I honour them as I now step into sharing Peace Circles with you.

My name is Karen McCarthy and I have always had a passion for creating safe, ecological and creative spaces for people to share, explore and transform their lives in authentic and meaningful ways. For over 18 years I worked with businesses, helping leaders and teams identify their shared purpose and build true, effective teams that worked together to achieve their goals. I helped teams create safe places where they could share the real issues and tap into their shared wisdom to create lasting solutions.

I have been a yogi for over 20 years as well as a Reiki Master for 9 years. My focus and passion has evolved to creating opportunities for building and experiencing greater peace within our lives and our relationships. My formal training in Peace Circle facilitation has allowed me the wonderful opportunity to partner with Shirley Lynn to use Circle to offer peace building experiences to people. In the sacred space of Circle we come together to create a place where we can nurture and deepen our connection to peace on earth.

We look forward to sitting in Circle with you!
