Women's Circle & Reiki-Infused Sound Bath: The Rise of Matriarchy

You've heard about it. You've sensed it. Now you feel it in your bones.

The rise of Matriarchy... and with it, the crumbling of Patriarchy.

No doubt, we're still living in a patriarchal society... still conditioned and held hostage by systems that oppress rather than liberate or protect. BUT the tides are turning. The shift is underway. And there is hope on the horizon.

A Matriarchy emphasizes communal wellbeing over personal gain. It cares about children, the environment, and the future. Women lead, but unlike the power-hungry, capitalist, and greedy "culture" that has arisen from patriarchal rule, they emphasize focus on the greater good... they priortize community. Wealth and abundance are evident in the health of the people, animals, and insects that live on the land and in the land itself.

While we cannot snap our fingers and wake up to a magical world transformed by Matriarchy, we can listen to the call. We can bolster ourselves with the inspiration and stregnth that can be found in Circle. We can tune into the whispers in our own souls and those who are being called towards this reclamation as well. We can make small personal shifts, share them with one another, and watch the ripple effect.

You're invited (though not required!) to bring something to the altar that represents the gifts that reside in matriarchal energy (or anything that feels sacred to you-- doesn't have to relate to our theme).

This nurturing circle will include quiet reflective time with journaling prompts & oracle cards, facilitated prompts & invitations for group sharing, & a restorative meditation & sound bath.

*This Circle is open to all who identify as women.

Words from Circle Attendees:

"The only ritual I always practice is attending Women’s Circles by Steph, of Little Scraps of Magic, LLC because these sacred nights truly align me. Despite practicing meditation for years, there was always some resistance within me preventing full surrender until I stepped into Steph’s magic. As someone who is always at women’s events and circles, I recommend every woman I know to drop into this particular circle at least once because something unexplainably transformational happens here especially. I have been to them all, and can vouch that here something touching happens. You can come with something very heavy and pour it into the circle to a safe space of understanding. You can sit down to be in stillness with yourself and amplify joy. You can sit in a circle just to be heard. We do this monthly. I can guarantee that this practice will strike some chord in you and will be transformational in some way."

What is a Women's Circle?

A Circle is a sacred space for women to intentionally gather & deepen connection to self & the collective.

Circles have been around since ancient times in many cultuers and counrties, and while modern day circles may have a different flow, you can still expect ritual & elements of ceremony to be a part of the experience. They include conversation, reflection, journaling, & meditation with a heavy emphasis on connecting to our sacred & divine feminine.

What Should I Bring?

• Yourself, with an open mind & open heart.
• A mug for tea
• A water bottle
• A notebook & pen, yoga mat, blanket (extras will be available if you forget!)
• If you wish to dress in the spirit of your inner goddess, wonderful! If you want to come cozy in your pjs or straight out of a workout or yoga class, equally as wonderful!

What Will Be Provided?

What is Reiki Infused Sound Bath?

“Reiki” means “life force energy” or “Universal life energy”.

Reiki is a healing energy technique that was developed in Japan in the 1920s as a means to bring energetic balance to the body. The practice is based on the ancient premise that everything is energy. It can travel across time and space, so you don't even need to be in the same proximity as someone to receive it.

I will send Reiki to everyone during the sound bath (this is considered distance Reiki since I will be directing to everyone in the room). All you have to do is set the intention to receive!

Tickets are $44 each (plus Eventbrite fees).

I hold the deepest belief that the world heals & becomes a better place for us all when we have the opportunity to tap into our gifts, cultivate our strengths, & do what lights us up. I trust that when we are connected to our truth & inner knowing, we create a ripple effect that creates a profound impact on our Earth & the people on it.

I live in my hometown of Cleveland Heights with my 2 young boys, husband, and our dogs, Denver & Maggie.
