I have created a support group outline for people moving out of abusive relationship dynamics and into a respectful future in romance.
For each $10 donated, I will donate 1 hour to co-facilitating a Respect in Relationships Support Group for a local group in Bellingham or to assisting someone set up their own group in their community or online. I will apply to WWRL to partner in creating this virtual space as that is requested.
About The Respect in Relationships Support Group (RRSG)
The RRSG is a higher vibration support group for leaving abusive dynamics behind and creating a future of respectful, healthy, romantic relationship. A key to building trust in ourselves is honing intuiting skills through practice over time. Trust in others is only truly possible when we have trust in ourselves. The spirit of this group is for each person to build their own intuition and encourage each other to do the same. Spontaneous changes to the plan when called for and enough room for spirit to weave the magic of synchronicity, healing and inspiration are highly encouraged here. Transparency in leadership and facilitation is also valued in our model.
About Me
I have been trained as a certified facilitator for the adult program "Our Whole Lives", a lifelong sex-education curriculum offered by the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship. I also completed a year of focused mentorship in creating and facilitating sacred space for deep spiritual work at Sacred Groves with Tere Carranza and Therese Charvet, elders of the Red Lodge and Long Dance communities.
About Me + Red Lodge
Many of the skills and resources used in creating this original outline for Respect In Relationships have been gained through participation in the Red Lodge community and directly influenced by their circle guidebook Weaving The Hoop That Connects - which is a gift from crones of that community given only to members of Red Lodge.
