Their souls spoke the language of love and justice.As such, they offer a path for realization that is profoundly relevant.A path in which you can fill your cup when the world gets to be too much, and then re-enter the fire of life spiritually quenched and grounded in your power.As a woman, a leader, a healer, you’re likely feeling an even greater need to tap a deeper wellspring of mystical wisdom to sustain you and help heal the planet.Mirabai Starr creates the space for you to come home to your full Self… a sanctuary where you can lay down your burdens, nourish your soul, and receive guidance for your daily life.And she offers us spiritual and literary access to the inspiration, wisdom, and practical action of the original feminine mystics from many spiritual traditions.Often rebels, these wisdom beings helped heal and transform others — and pioneered the feminine mystical path that we desperately need today.Nourish Your Yearning for the BelovedThis new soul sanctuary with world-renowned interspiritual teacher Mirabai Starr will give you permission and a refuge in which to nourish your yearning for the Beloved…As part of the journey, you’ll be initiated into the sacred writings and timeless wisdom of many women mystics.

We engage in practices designed to “get us somewhere and give us something,” driven by a false belief that we are impure, imperfect, disconnected.Unwittingly, you may also put your attention on the mechanisms — prayer, meditation and mindfulness, for example — forgetting you’re already one with the Beloved, and always have been, and ever shall be.In this session, you’ll discover non-dual teachings that invite you to release your illusion of separation and surrender to a boundless, unconditional love.

Activities like resting and restoring our bodies and minds, making art, and connecting with nature take second place.It’s time to reclaim your relationship with beauty and nature. You don’t have to be a master artist to revel in the joy of painting or drawing, poetry or fiction, music and dance. When you engage in creativity, you become a conduit for the Divine and an instrument of peace.We’ve disconnected from the “wild child” of our true nature. In our vulnerability and our creativity, however “unrefined” it may be, we channel Shakti, the sacred life force. Creative expression is not about the outcome, but is an opening for connecting with Beloved.In this module, you’ll:Learn about the Shekinah as the embodiment of the Divine infusing all of creationEstablish a Sabbath practice to restore your body and mind, aligning you with the SacredCommit to creating a work of art, to be completed by the end of the course, and shared on the community pageExplore the archetypes of beauty and creativity across the spiritual traditions, such as Saraswati and AthenaDiscover the ancient yogic teachings of the Radiance SutrasGuest Teacher: Azima Kolin, internally renowned classical musician and Sufi artistAzima Melita Kolin is an award-winning, world-renowned musician, writer, and scholar.

In the process, we’ve lost our connection with the land, our bodies and the very life force.If you ache for the aching Earth, how can you practice not turning away from her pain, but rather leaning in to listen to what she has to tell you?In this module, you’ll find meaningful separation between the grief of your own losses and your capacity to hold the anguish of other beings and of our Sister, Mother Earth (as St. Francis of Assisi so sweetly calls her). You will reclaim your connection with the web of life — and clearly perceive the earth’s wounds, tend to them, and heal your separation from the feminine.In this module, you’ll:Cultivate a relationship with the Earth as a cherished relativeDevelop a practice of spending time in nature every day (expanding your understanding of what that looks like to include urban environments and accommodate disabilities and other restrictions)Explore the Earth Mother archetype across the spiritual traditions and world mythologies, especially Gaia, Pachamama, Mayan and Aztec deities, Greco-Roman fertility goddesses, and the insights of contemporary environmental scienceCreate an altar to the Sacred Feminine, to be added to as the journey unfoldsGuest Teacher, Pat McCabe “Woman Stands Shining,” Navajo mother, grandmother, artist, writer, ceremonial leader, and international activistPat McCabe is a voice for global peace, and her paintings are created as tools for individual, Earth, and global healing.

Her teachings are deeply rooted in the feminine.Module 6: Finding Sanctuary and RefugeReplenishment Through Mercy, Compassion & StillnessThe multiple crises unfolding in the world can leave us battered and helpless. Soul-weary, we may feel alone, unworthy, even unloved.We may also mistake self-care for self-indulgence — fearing that refilling our empty cup will take us away from the urgent tasks of perfecting ourselves and fixing the world.Yet, fill our cups we must.
