SUMMARY:Moon Lodge with Grandmother Renee & Sarah Connors
DESCRIPTION:Monthly virtual Moon Lodge is shifting gears a little bit this fiscal. \nIt will still be a safe place for women to come together to share their life experiences and embrace the teachings offered by Grandmother Renee and the knowledge shared by Sarah Connors\, Naturopath & Indigenous Doula. And it will continue to occur the Third Tuesday of every month\, 1-3pm. \nNext year\, we will be aligning our Moon Teachings with some life cycle wheel teachings. What this means is\, we will focus on different age groups each month (some for 2 months because there has been a lot of requests for support in some topics discussed previously in those age groups). This will provide an opportunity for all ages to join us and learn more about some ways they can incorporate these tools and teachings to live the good life in all stages along our journey. \nGrandmother Renee calls this “Life Stages Through the Moon Cycles”. \nOngoing until Dec 2025\nWe meet monthly over Microsoft Teams\, email Lianne to receive the link.\nPlease fill in the registration link below:\nMoon Lodge Registration 2025
