We are committed to spreading the word about this unique global conversation among women on feminine power. Here’s an update on this weekend’s event: Join Zen teacher Diane Musho Hamilton for what promises to be a bold and fascinating exploration of the relationship between our freedom and our femininity – one that will illuminate our path towards a truly integrated liberation. As educated, modern women, we possess more freedom than women have had at any other point in recorded human history. Yet, as much as we delight in and celebrate this freedom it does not come without it’s fair share of complex challenges and contradictions. For while we want to be successful in the world, we may also desire to remain deeply connected to our sensual nature and organic rhythms. While we want to stand up for the equality and fair treatment of women, we may also be loath to continue the fatiguing battle between the sexes. While we want to celebrate our femininity, we feel we must be careful to not stereotype or limit who we are. While we want to be seen as beautiful, we do not want to be reduced to a mere sex object!
