Let’s gather together VIRTUALLY to celebrate Mother Mary and discover our own inner divine feminine.
Join us for a monthly ceremony to celebrate the Divine Feminine. Awaken and empower the levels of conscious connection with your inner wise woman using alchemical interventions. Every month a specific Goddess will guide our circle for us to remember how Her magic can intertwine with our own, elevating our greatest selves to Rise. Adora combines over 20 years experience walking the spiral of the Divine Feminine to inspire the community with rare aromatics, crystals, meditation and vibrational medicine to Transform and Evolve our feminine power.
In this month’s “Igniting the Spark of the Divine Feminine” we will work with Mother Mary. Mother Mary offers us many teachings, her universal comprehension of life that fully embraces the gamut of human experience is perhaps what I most closely connect with. We will explore the alchemy of Mother Mary in relationship to her Divine attributes of grace, courage, humility, faith, wisdom, and to support the expression of your authentic self along your path of self-mastery. I will offer teachings on alchemical interventions and guided meditation to invite her aspects of the Divine Feminine to rise in greater ways of clarity, vibrancy, and empowerment in your life.

**Soul Care Groups are for members of the Joy Prescription. See enrollment information below.**
What: Soul care facilitated by Dr. Libert via Zoom video call.
Soul care groups offer a sacred space for healing, especially for those struggling with stress, anxiety and depression. We intentionally set aside time to come together for contemplation, for sharing our stories, for deep, empathetic listening, for Bible study, for silence, listening and tuning in to the still small voice of God together.
Although every Soul Care group session is unique, here’s the general format:
Welcome
Opening Prayer
Introductions & Check-In
Gentle Movement Activity
Dialogue on Scripture
Reflection & Sharing Group Wisdom
Closing Circle
All are welcome. While our background and teachings are distinctly Christian, we welcome ALL people seeking God into our community. All members must agree to and abide by our group covenant to participate in Soul Care groups.
Learn more and enroll by visiting: https://thejoyprescription.com/soul-care-groups/
