The Women’s Way Program Workshops

Together, you and your daughter will learn about the growth and changes of puberty in an atmosphere of beauty and creativity. Keepsake crafts and celebration make this a day she will remember forever. Practical suggestions, shared hopes and dreams, and age-appropriate information about women’s cycles help mothers and daughters find an easy way into conversation.

Honoring this time of change has been shown to have a lasting effect on a girl’s feelings toward her cycle.

“This was a lot more fun than I thought it would be!”

“All girls should take this class.” Julia, age 12, daughter of Donna.

“It was a magical day. It made a difference in our lives. It was just what I was hoping for.” Denise, mother of Ashley, age 11.

Classes scheduled according to interest and can be tailored to groups of any size or age. Please call or email for details.

This empowering workshop is for women seeking better health, emotional balance and creativity.

Topics and activities will include:

  • Learning to support your own “seasons” throughout the month.
  • Taking time for yourself.
  • Relating to your body in a loving way.
  • The sacred gifts of your cycle.
  • A Holistic approach to PMS, cramping and other concerns
  • Stories from cultures that value menstruation as a women’s tradition.
  • A journal to record your cycle and the moon. (Observing the healing rhythm of the moon can guide you in balancing your life.)

Some workshops culminate in our “Welcoming into Womanhood” ceremony.

What do you wish someone had said to you when you came of age? How could it have been different, and what would your cycles be like now if you lived within a culture that celebrated women’s wisdom?
