About this Event
Slow Rise, Sacred Hands A Women’s Day of Bread and Remembrance
Within every woman lives an ancient knowing...one that remembers the rhythm of hands at work, the patience of waiting, and the quiet power of gathering in circle.
Slow Rise, Sacred Hands is a full-day Sacred Woman Collective experience devoted to remembrance through the art of sourdough breadmaking. This day is not about learning a skill alone, but about returning to a way of being...where nourishment is created slowly, intentionally, and together.
We begin by arriving fully into the body. Through gentle movement, breath and ritual, we soften the edges of our day-to-day lives and step into sacred time. From this place of presence, we gather around the work of bread, mixing, folding, and tending dough as women have done for generations. The hands remember what the mind often forgets. As the dough rests and rises, so do we.
Midday, we will share an artfully prepared lunch, breaking bread together in the spirit of Sacred Woman-around the table, in conversation, and in connection. This shared meal is both ritual and remembrance, honoring the ancestral role of women as keepers of nourishment, hearth, and community.
Throughout the day, we are invited to move slowly, to listen inward, and to honor process over outcome. Sourdough becomes our teacher, offering a living reflection of patience, trust, and transformation. We remember that we, too, are living cultures, shaped by what we tend and how we care for ourselves.
As the circle closes, each woman will be gifted her own sourdough starter, along with guidance to continue the practice at home. This living starter is more than a gift—it is a companion, a reminder that what begins in circle continues in daily life. The rise does not end here.
This Sacred day includes:
-A full day of gentle movement, ritual, and embodied practice
-Hands-on sourdough breadmaking in sacred circle
-An artfully prepared shared lunch and the ritual of breaking bread together
-Your own sourdough starter with instructions to continue the practice
-Space to remember, reconnect, and return to your own rhythm.
