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

Embodying the New Eve + Insider Invite

magdalenepath2015-10-08T08:00:59+00:00

What if We Got Her Story All Wrong? With autumn upon us, thoughts turn to changing leaves and Fall Harvest….apples, pumpkins, etc. How timely that Bella Mia magazine has just released our latest issue, The Truth About Eve, featuring that iconic apple-wielder herself. (With a gorgeous photo of Southern Oregon's Renee Jeffus on the cover—yum!) So I wanted to send you my article, Embodying the New Eve, (which I’ve excerpted for you below). It's by far the most edgy confrontation of traditional beliefs that I’ve written for mainstream press. It excites and terrifies meto share it with you. This whole issue really bumps up against cultural

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

Taking the Medicine Again

Here we are, Independence Day--beyond hot dogs, flags and fireworks, what is it really? It’s that day in the US when we celebrate our separation from an archaic, monarchic system and started to create something new, different, egalitarian and self-governed. A more expansive way to lead a nation. Regardless of our opinion of it now, we can step back and see what a cool and courageous experiment this really was. How do we take this leading edge impulse for freedom and creative leadership into our lives now? Maybe because it’s summer, I’m noticing many are feeling this call for freedom,

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

Mortgaging Your Present for Future Joy?

magdalenepath2014-04-01T11:57:14+00:00

Wow, it’s been a wild ride since the middle of the month, huh? Many of us sense that we are really at a tipping point. We just entered a New Moon. It is becoming more clear where we are in alignment with our soul-selves and our purpose, and where we are not. And guess what? All the stuff that is challenging right now? Too much on your plate? Not in alignment. Is your life looking like a bad dream, or someone else’s idea of an ideal life? (Not bad, but not spectacular, either?) I know how that happens! I’ve been

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

H.O.P.E. for The Rapture?

magdalenepath2011-05-27T16:57:33+00:00

For some time I have been guided to live from the place that we are living in Heaven on Planet Earth (HOPE, get it?) . With all The Rapture talk this past week, I really noticed how I could embody this feeling of the Divine in life everyday. When I woke up Sunday morning ("still here"), I decided: The Rapture has begun. H.O.P.E. now. Why wait to get sucked up to heaven in order to feel joy and bliss? We are already here in heaven, and we just need to see it this way, to begin to make it so!
