Cultivating Resilience
and Joy

Healing the wound of separation

the journey begins SEPTEMBER 20th

Follow the seasons home to your place in the living world

Cultivating Resilience and Joy is a healing sanctuary for women—a warm, welcoming space to exhale, connect, receive soul nourishment, and remember your place in the greater rhythms of life. In these chaotic and uncertain times, this circle becomes medicine: a quiet metronome keeping steady time beneath the noise. Its rhythm restores balance, clarity, and hope when the world feels overwhelming.

Together, we follow the turning of the seasons as our guide for tending both our inner landscapes and our shared human connections. Through breathwork, guided meditation, reflective conversation, and simple seasonal rituals, we reclaim what our ancestors knew: by aligning ourselves with the great cosmic cycles that create Life, we awaken to our belonging within the wonder and magic of Creation herself. From this place, we are supported to unfold more authentically and offer the unique gifts we carry into this moment in history.

Each gathering weaves Taoist Five Element wisdom with a gentle yet potent mix of presence, practice, and community—a steady heartbeat in uncertain times—so you can return to your life more centered, more connected to what truly matters, and more deeply aligned with the unfolding of your true path.

Women’s Voices…

“The group was a grounding, supportive space throughout the year. We connected with the Five Elements and the changing, releasing energies of the seasons. The rituals, sharing together, and guided meditations strengthened me, brought me inner guidance and energy, and helped release old patterns and pain, leaving more space for light, love, and possibility.” Agnes

“This class put a framework around things I had felt, observed, and wondered about for years. Even more, it introduced entirely new ways of relating to place and the passage of time. I think about some element of the class nearly every day. It has profoundly impacted my sense of where and when I am.” -Anne

“I have been attending the gatherings Amy creates for the past three years because of the meaningful impact they have had on my life. There is something incredibly powerful, supportive, and deeply comforting about coming together with a multigenerational group of women. These gatherings have helped me feel more grounded and connected to the natural rhythms of the seasons, to my own humanity, and to the world around me. What I have gained through this community has become a kind of map and compass, something I can return to during times of turbulence, transition, and uncertainty.” -Erin

“Amy’s monthly program helped me stay grounded and clear as I moved through the second year of learning to be a widow after almost 40 years of marriage. With her leadership, I found a circle of wisdom and strength that brought light to the journey.” -Susan

“…the group is amazing. Joining Amy's circle, Cultivating Resilience and Joy, has not only been such an amazing experience, but a joyful one as well.  I have learned so much about myself through the framework of the five element system, and because of that feel more grounded in who I am becoming, and am able to drop more fully into being patient with me, my process and the world.” - Erika

“I feel more connected to my heart, more generous toward my constantly churning mind, and more empowered to make decisions that help me feel well, balanced, and aligned with what keeps me rooted.” —Jess

“You come away feeling both more empowered and more 'knowing' as a human being, as a woman, but also, more humbled and inspired by your own belonging to a world so much more magnificently powerful and self-restoring than you normally had the eyes to see and appreciate.”—Polya

“Imagine taking flight for a year-long trip around the sun. A journey charted to bring you closer to a clear and immersive understanding of self. An understanding that shifts and deepens and expands as you move around the sun. Amy is your pilot for this trip; steering with immense grace, love, wit and a masterful understanding of our cosmic dance. I can't imagine navigating the past year without the guidance and understanding of her class... Deeply, deeply grateful for Amy and her gifts, wisdom, and generous spirit.” —Melanie

“It has felt very grounding to be reminded to pay attention to the elemental and seasonal energies we experience throughout the year. Additionally, the community has been amazing! I have met and gotten to know some people in our community that I otherwise might not have, and it has been so lovely.” —Katy

“Amy’s ‘Cultivating Resilience & Joy’ is so much more than just a class. It’s a community of people who share common interests in finding peace and coping mechanisms during this time we are living in. It provides tools to connect with nature and learn from the past as well as an understanding of the rhythms of the seasons that will stay with me for years to come. I highly recommend this experience!” -Hanna
