The Feminine Fire: Power and Healing with Sobonfu Some
Feb 25 2011
From time immemorial, cultures around the world have turned to feminine power for strength, guidance, and healing. We often don't acknowledge or own our innate power, and many women feel isolated by the challenge of asserting the leader within. How can we embrace and acknowledge our identity and place and begin to bring forward this depth of wisdom to nourish our community? Through redefining and recognizing women's way of knowing we can strengthen our power and re-engage with the deep feminine. This lecture is an introduction to the weekend workshop, where we will explore various modes in women's lives-motherhood, partnerships, friendships, and work. Click here for the WORKSHOP.

Her books include The Spirit of Intimacy, Welcoming Spirit Home, and Falling Out of Grace.
