MOTHER-DAUGHTER CIRCLES

With loving intention to witness and support our daughters' journey toward womanhood, and to nurture and strengthen the mother-daughter bond, Red Tent Louisville offers Mother-Daughter Circles for girls age 8 and older.

"The mother-daughter relationship is at the headwaters of every woman’s health. Our bodies and our beliefs about them were formed in the soil of our mother’s emotions, beliefs, and behaviors. She is our first and most powerful female role model. It is from her that we learn what it is to be a woman and care for our bodies."
​Dr. Christiane Northrup

Period of Change

The journey from girlhood to womanhood is a wondrous and mysterious time in a girl’s life -- a period of change that presents a beautiful opportunity for mothers to strengthen and nurture the mother-daughter bond.
With a deep commitment to witnessing and supporting our daughters’ birth into womanhood, we will gather monthly in sacred circle to honor the passage of the 11-14 year-old girl through stories of sacred feminine archetypes, talking circle, and activities designed to support healthy mother-daughter attachment.

TOPICS INCLUDE:
* Healthy body image
* Cultivating the mind-body-spirit connection 
* Anatomy & physiology
* Menstrual care supplies
* Hearing and heeding our intuition 
* Self-care 
* Understanding, creating, and upholding healthy boundaries 
* Emotional ebb and flow via monthly cycle tracking 
* Media and the representation of the female 
* The mother-daughter legacy 

Each Circle will be a dynamic blend of talking circle, guided meditation, art-making, and story sharing. In addition to the monthly gatherings, you will receive regular online resources and prompts to continue your journey work with your daughter at home. Mothers will also have access to an exclusive online group for private discussion.

Goddess Girls

For countless generations, daughters sat at their mother's knee in the sacred space of women's circles, hearing stories of what it is to be a woman. From their sisters, aunts and grandmothers, they learned to connect to the power of their own Sacred Feminine core. 

Our modern culture has lost this empowering ritual, much to the detriment of our Selves, our daughters, and our planet. Bereft of the reverence of the Sacred Feminine with which to identify, girls are socialized to emulate princesses and pop stars. Surrounded by a looks-obsessed culture, our daughters are taught to focus on outward appearance rather than their inherent inner beauty, strength, and wisdom.

​It is time to return to the circle, with and for our daughters . . . for the planet, and for our Selves. It is time to re-learn the amazing power of the sacred circle as a place for growth, support, and mother-daughter connection. It is time to reintroduce the strength and wisdom of the Goddess archetype, to inspire the embodiment of the Sacred Feminine, and to nurture the connection between our girls and their inner Goddess.Join us at Red Tent :: Louisville for Goddess Girls one Sunday of each month for this drop-in gathering. Each Circle will be a dynamic blend of world Goddess mythology, guided meditation, song, art-making, and story sharing.

AGES:
This group is appropriate for girls age 8 to 11'ish.
We invite all girls and their elders, such as mothers, aunts, grandmothers, sisters, and cousins.

The Heroines Club

The Heroines Club: A Mother-Daughter Empowerment Circle by Melia Keeton-Digby offers nourishing guidance and a creative approach for mothers and daughters, aged 7+, to learn and grow together through the study of women’s history. Each month focuses on a different heroine, featuring athletes, inventors, artists, and revolutionaries from around the world – including Frida Kahlo, Rosalind Franklin, Amelia Earhart, Anne Frank, Maya Angelou and Malala Yousafzai as strong role models for young girls to learn about, look up to, and be inspired by.

Offering thought-provoking discussion, powerful rituals, and engaging creative activities, The Heroines Club fortifies our daughters’ self-esteem, invigorates mothers’ spirits, and nourishes the mother-daughter relationship. In a culture that can make mothering daughters seem intimidating and isolating, it 

offers an antidote: a revolutionary model for empowering your daughter and strengthening your mother-daughter relationship. Each Circle will be a dynamic blend of talking circle, guided meditation, art-making, and story sharing. In addition to the monthly gatherings, you will receive regular online resources and prompts to continue your journey work with your daughter at home. Mothers will also have access to an exclusive online group for private discussion.
