At Spiral Studio we celebrate Mother's Day by honoring the "mother energy" that all human beings are capable of. And wouldn't the world be a better place if we had more mother energy!
There all kinds of ways to be a mother. Below are some tidbits from today's special version of out monthly Spiral Sound Bath Mini-Retreat. (Sarah stepped in for Lexi, so of course there was a handout!)
Mother energy is channeled in many ways and balances compassionate care with bold, protective action. Often seen as selfless, nurturing and protective, it is less about gender and more about honoring the creative force within.
Self-care: mother yourself first, tending to your own well-being and setting healthy boundaries.
core pillars of mothering energy:
nurturing
protectiveness
fostering growth
beyond traditional motherhood:
mentorship
community-building
creativity
Kali ~ the “Dark Mother”
The Hindu goddess of time, death, creation & destruction, and ultimate power (shakti). She embodies the destructive, yet necessary, forces of change.
“tough love”
her warrior side embodies physical and emotional strength
she destroys evil to protect the innocent
liberal from illusion & ignorance
a profound symbol of ego’s death
she represents the power of transformation and ultimate consciousness
she destroys the demons of shame, doubt, and addiction
No matter who or how you "mother," thank you for making our community and world a better place! Spiral Studio Downtown Bangor Bangor Region Chamber of Commerce
