Mother,
Who gives so much, who
holds and comforts and nurtures and fights-for and sweats and aches for
her children
her heart
who sometimes finds she has given so much that she feels
empty, depleted, thirsty, tired…
Does she know how vitally important she is?
How much the world – as well as her children and family
need her to be strong, vibrant, nourished?
Mother, You,
pause now, and think of a time you felt that your cup was filled to brimming. . .
Recall a moment of serene sisterhood
as you sat in a circle of women
and talked or listened or held hands or cried or
laughed like you haven’t laughed in a long time.
Remember, for a moment, the dreams you have for your life -
yes, those,
that are deeply buried beneath your daily existence,
what are they?
Have your dreams changed since you became a mother?
What is it you need to feel nourished
spiritually, emotionally, physically, and intellectually?
How do you deeply care for yourself
so you can deeply care for your children and family?
What is in place?
What is missing?
Would you like to sit in a group of women and explore what it means to (re-)achieve inner balance and clarity of your life path? I invite you to join MamaTime! Mother’s Personal Renewal Group, based on the best-selling book, The Mother’s Guide to Self-Renewal: How to Reclaim, Rejuvenate and Re-Balance Your Life, by Renee Trudeau (http://www.reneetrudeau.com).
MamaTime! circles are intimate gatherings of 8-12 women, and meets once per month for 6 months in a beautiful, peaceful, garden-cottage setting. MamaTime! is a gift to yourself – a time for yourself – without children – to gently and deeply nourish yourself- spiritually, emotionally, physically.
Spend a few hours per month honoring yourself, learning about the power of self-care and balanced living, and filling your cup to overflowing, so you can be more present with those you love, and experience more joy in your life.
Everything else can wait – it’s MamaTime!
Time: The next Mama Time! Self-Renewal Mother’s Circle will meet the second Monday of every month, beginning January 12, 2009. The meetings begin at 9:30 a.m. and end at 11:30 a.m.
Where: Mama Time! Self-Renewal Mothers Circles are small, intimate gatherings in a beautiful garden cottage setting. Details are sent with class registration
What this investment in yourself includes: $175 for the six-month Session I, and this includes: the six morning meetings, a copy of Renee Trudeau’s book, The Mother’s Guide to Self-Renewal, handouts, tea and snacks and other supplies at the meetings, email support between meetings, and the option to participate in additional events.
