I call this an "Initiation" because in this program you will usher in a new way of being as a woman. You will be transformed in the process and may not recognize yourself when you emerge. The word initiation comes from the Latin initium which means "entrance" or "beginning," literally "a going in."

This is a comprehensive six-month program including group coaching phone sessions that will meet every other Thursday from February 2010 until July 2010. I warmly invite you to claim your place in our virtual sacred circle of women. Inside our "Red Tent," we will travel togeth jer through a joyful initiation deep into the heart, soul and sex of the feminine.

Why this Initiation Program was Designed for You

If you're like most women attracted to Awakening Shakti, you're a high-achieving professional who has already accomplished a great deal on the long road toward being successful in our hyper-masculinized world. Sister, you should feel proud of yourself!

All that hard work, though, has likely taken a toll on your feminine spirit. You've gotten so good at making things happen with your masculine energy (envisioning, directing, doing, managing, focusing, controlling) that perhaps you've lost touch with more subtle forms of your inherent power as a woman. Maybe you're exhausted, tapped out, or depressed. Maybe your health, marriage or career is failing. Maybe you can’t find your passion or joy. Maybe you find yourself giving in to sex when you don't really want it, or perhaps you have given up on it altogether.

You're not alone. Statistics indicate that over 40% of women in America are dissatisfied with their sexual life and 30% percent suffer from depression. No wonder Botox has become so pervasive: we have a lot to frown about.

Times they are indeed a-changing for you and for all of us. The whole planet is undergoing a profound initiation. Things that we can't explain with our rational minds are happening more and more frequently. Things we thought we could always count on are crumbling. Our winning strategies just aren't working anymore.

Do Not Lose Heart

My winning strategies also stopped working. In the last decade, I found that I no longer wanted to do work that paid me generously but left me feeling empty inside. Feelings I'd long suppressed started bubbling up for healing. I found myself dissatisfied sexually, longing for something deeper and more soul satisfying. I made some choices that "seemed" conscious at the time, but ended up being traumatic. Most recently, my husband, who I thought was my soul mate for life, left our 23 relationship and our family unit shattered. I found myself in the "dark night of the soul." During this profound period of grief, chaos and awakening, a healer told me, "Anything that you are being asked to let go of is not anything that you really need and, indeed, your soul will no longer allow you to hold onto."

Wow. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of your own life and all that you're being asked to let go of, I invite you also to meditate on that potent message.

Author and master storyteller, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, reminds us who we are with these words, "My friends do not lose heart. We were made for these times."

And here's another way to look at it: when things fall apart, focus on that which abides.

What Abides is Your Essence, Your Shakti

I discovered that what abides is my relationship with me and my Shakti or sacred feminine life force. And that's what I want to share with you. It's enticing to blame him ("if only he were more spiritual or emotional or the tantric lover of my dreams"). But girlfriend, it's NOT about him. This is about YOU. You own your turn-on, your power, your sensuality. It's time to come home and invest in your inner world. Pushing harder "out there" will never get you where you long to be. You can only ever find that by looking within. It's time to fall in love with yourself. Exactly the way that you are and are not.

What I have to offer you is a deeper and more loving and ecstatic relationship with yourself. Communion. An inner marriage of your feminine qualities (heart, softness, devotion, surrender, opening, trusting, intuition, beauty, flow) with your already well-honed masculine gifts. The gold that is available as a result of this alchemy, this erotic coupling within, is joy, wholeness, radiance, balance, and serenity. And the ability to more effortless attract what you are wanting instead of always working so damn hard for it. You're on the threshold of birthing a whole new YOU. That will naturally shift all other aspects of your life and relationships for the better. Miracles await you.

How Does Sex Fit Into All This?

Your sexuality is the most potent form of energy you have access to. The masters of Tantra knew this and called it the fast track to enlightenment, one that must be tempered with the qualities of love and spirit. Sexual pleasure is your birthright and it's a rocket booster of energy for your awakening on all levels. So we use that because it's efficient, it feels good, it's renewable energy and it's fun. We heal our relationship to our bodies and sexuality. We awaken our Shakti. We embrace the cycle we're in, whether maiden, mother or crone. We fall in love with ourselves. When you become your own finest lover, you have something radiant to share with your partner, your children, family, community and the world as a whole.

How Does the Process Work?

This program is an initiation, meaning actively experiential not passively informational. If you just want information, you can read a book. If you want to change your life, you need a guided coaching program where you will take action, get support, move through obstacles and celebrate breakthroughs over time. You cannot awaken your Shakti by just thinking about it, you have to move and get into your body—that's where the feminine lives.

The Unleash Your Shakti Power Initiation Program is six months long. We meet on the phone approximately every other week for one hour each time, for a total of 12 sessions. If you have to miss a session they will be recorded but you'll want to participate in all of them. In between class, you'll have field work, exercises, explorations, communication inside the circle and check-ins with your course buddy. We will make use of a variety of modalities including informational reading, journaling, movement (dance, yoga), breath work, visualization, ritual, art and creativity, communication practices, and sensory awakening exercises.

A Program Content Overview

SHAKTI is a Sanskrit term used in Tantra that means sacred life force energy. Shakti is also commonly referred to as the feminine aspect of being. In the "Unleash Your Shakti Power Initiation Program," we use SHAKTI as an acronym. The letters stand for: Source, Heart, Attraction, Kundalini, Truth, and Intuition. We will move down the body from the crown of the head into the heart and then into our sacred place or "yoni" (vagina). Then we move back up the body through the kundalini energy, into the center of truth and finally up to the center of intuition at the "third eye."

Here's a taste of what we'll cover in our twelve modules over six months:

What Will I Have at the End?

More than I can convey or you can possibly realize from your current vantage point. So this does require a leap of faith because where we're going, you've probably never been before. After the six month "Unleash Your Shakti Power Initiation Program," you'll have:

How Much Does it Cost?

Know that the kind of transformation that awaits you on the other side of this program is priceless. Your money in this case is simply a form of energy exchange for these teachings and as a way to give back for the gifts you will receive as part of our sacred circle. The price of this six month Initiation Program is a fraction of the cost of private coaching with me specifically so I can make this work more available to more women. The equivalent session cost for six months of one-on-one coaching is $1,800. I am offering this small group program at less than a THIRD of that rate.

You get:

For only $99 per month!

You can save another $100 by making a one time, up front payment in full.

Think of the value to you of making a quantum leap into a whole new level of self-love, divine feminine embodiment, attraction and radiance. How might that change your life, your relationships, your influence as a leader in your field? If you think about that, the value to you would probably be in the thousands, maybe even the hundreds of thousands. I'm offering it to you for only $99 per month. If you want to pay for the full program up-front, I'll even give you another $100 off the price so you pay one single amount of $494 for the six-month program.

Space in this Initiation Program is limited to ensure the quality and depth of the process for all participants. Only 20 spots are available so claim your place in our circle NOW or risk missing out on this life-changing program.

A Risk-Free Guarantee

It's easy to be cynical these days and it's important to do your due diligence before you invest your time and energy in any program. To support you, let me offer this guarantee to you:

If you attend sessions, play full out, and do the homework
and do NOT feel like you have received your money's worth
upon completion of this program,
I will refund your fee in full.

Dealing with "Yes-Buts" and Gremlins

It's normal for those nasty and critical "gremlins" inside your head to get very active at the point of deciding to move forward so simply be aware. They will offer all kinds of fierce objections precisely because this program has the power to dramatically transform your life. Gremlins are invested in you NOT making any changes toward greater consciousness because their survival depends on a steady diet of negativity, fear and stuck-ness in old patterns that no longer serve you. Don't become identified with the voice of your gremlin because it's not you it's a gremlin. Quiet the mind, drop into your heart and belly, and seek the guidance within about whether this program is right for you. You can also get more information in my Free Teleclass about this program:
