It’s Here…SisterSoul Salon Virtual Retreat

magdalenepath2015-10-14T08:04:55+00:00

Virtual SisterSoul Salon…Is Here! It's finally time. It's crazy to realize it's almost 2 years since I published The Magdalene Path. I've gotten such amazing feedback from so many of you. And I consistently hear that it brings up a lot of thoughts, feelings, memories and ideas, so I figured its time to gather and explore. A virtual space for women to connect who want to go deeper into The Magdalene Path. Last spring, before we moved to The Balch Hotel, I was offering these Sister Soul Salon evenings in my home, for just this purpose. Many of you wanted to

How to Love How You Look, (No Matter What)

magdalenepath2015-09-13T16:47:00+00:00

The body and how we look is such a source of conflict for many women. It seems we can’t live with it and we can’t live without it. We are compellingly drawn to beauty: in ourselves, in others, in things, in life. Sometimes women are scorned as superficial for this pursuit, but I’ve come to recognize this as an intrinsic soul quality of the Feminine, which is why we are so enchanted by it. Many of us are blind to our own beauty, though. We’ve been conditioned to believe so many things about our own value and worth—many of which

Juicy Creativity, Sensuality and Aliveness

magdalenepath2015-03-06T08:20:38+00:00

It's almost the weekend, but before I head off line, (One of my Soul Care practices, how radical is that?) I want to share about something coming up in just over a week. You may have seen mention but I want to call your attention. Good News! SisterSoul Salon comes to Cave Junction! How do we manifest from our Feminine Center? What if CREATIVITY is a Spiritual Tool or Practice that keeps you aligned with Feminine Soul? Because that is the key: If we truly trust guidance, our connection to (and as) Goddess/ Source in human form, we must shift

BIG Shifts Emerge

magdalenepath2014-10-28T09:18:00+00:00

A few weeks back I alluded to some big changes that will change my world as I know it. Gulp. REALLY big. I notice I'm not alone in this. My brilliant friend and colleague Tomar Levine (SoulGuidanceforYourBusiness.com) writes, "Transformation alert! This is a big one! The New Moon last week is no ordinary new moon. It coincides with a partial Solar Eclipse, a heavy-duty cosmic event with effects lasting as long as 6 months to a year. "...this is all happening in the sign of Scorpio, signfiying transformation, death and rebirth, deep feeling, and exposing the hidden. Softening the effects of this “dark feminine” water sign is

A Honest Moment

magdalenepath2014-09-24T06:59:12+00:00

A few months ago I gathered a circle of women in my local area who were hungry for more meaning, connection, creativity and sacred space at SisterSoul Salon. (I offered this only to those of you on my local list, so if you didn't see this, that's why.) it was a big hit--lI even added a second gathering to accommodate everyone.The ladies loved it, It was clear that they wanted more: they told me so! But I wasn't ready to hear it. (I had a new juicy program to offer and I was excited about it.) I was so intent

Great Loss? Or Gain?

magdalenepath2014-06-20T11:53:39+00:00

As we sit at the Summer Solstice I'm feeling blessed, after co-leading a delicious ritual workshop, so I wanted to share some Soul food from The Magdalene Path that might be relevant for you right now. I've got a super special announcement--look for that in a day or two. Until then, here's an excerpt from Chapter 3, The Path of The Divine Feminine, and a Practice to take it into your life. Great Loss Mary Magdalene says, "With the loss of the Divine Feminine, the Divine Masculine lost his partner/consort. He lost his balance and his Self in the Divine deism

Are You Ready For A Quantum Leap?

magdalenepath2014-02-27T13:00:31+00:00

I wiggle and squirm as I attempt to sit in meditation this morning. Some days it’s easier than others to do my morning practices. Why do I want to open my email more than I want to connect in stillness and silence with the Divine? Why does it seem so difficult sometimes? I know the inevitable result when I don’t: fear, worry, darkness and confusion about my path, my life—dreary moods. I settle in and allow myself to being present in my body—my breath slows too. My mind follows. I hear the voice of my higher guidance, “Be still, your

Footsteps on the Path of Joy

magdalenepath2013-09-20T13:42:20+00:00

I've been moving through some big breakthroughs, these past few weeks. How 'bout you? I'm leaning in to what works for me (See Getting Your Groove Back-Time Tested Tricks, Tools and Totems) It's been week of big reflections in my world that have made it really apparent that even when things look good, I'm not there to enjoy them. I'm so focused on what I need to do to be successful in the future, that I am virtually MISSING my NOW. Freedom (c) 2013 Claire Sierra, MA I'm so busy trying to get to some nameless "there" that

The Magdalene Path is being born….

magdalenepath2013-09-14T16:05:16+00:00

I really am in the final edit of The Magdalene Path. The cover is updated (again!) and near completed. The subtitle is changed too: Awaken the Power of Your Feminine Soul. These things have their own timing. I'm not totally in control. How Divine Feminine is that? I've finally surrendered judging myself for how the process is NOT going. I'm in-joying what is. (Which is a lot!) We've been busy editing, designing bookmarks and CREATING A NEW WEBSITE!!! Here's sneak peek. Check out MagdalenePath.com When you go there, you can download a juicy preview chapter from the book, that reveals

Starting the Shift in 2012

magdalenepath2012-01-27T14:07:04+00:00

I love retreat and renewal at the turn of the year. This dark inward time really inspires me to journey and reflect on what just passed, and vision about what lies ahead. So a week or so ago, I gathered together a roomful of women, lovely professionals from the education, healthcare and hospitality industry into a gorgeous log and stone Northwest lodge overlooking the Rogue River. The day was mostly clear and we sat around a great stone fireplace for Shift 2012 Retreat, sipping tea and taking turning by the hearth. (Snow stormed warded off--intention setting in action!) Whenever I
