Ellen Weaver, teacher, body-centered psychotherapist, pastoral counselor, and ritual co-creator, helps women explore inward, a village in their selves. She begins by encouraging them to imagine women's community at its best, each woman helping the group in accurate ways.

Clarifying this internal Village then gives women the chance to become a healthy gathering place--to develop the strong, creative parts, nurture vulnerable parts, and care for the children. Including archetypal allies and plant spirits, as needed, Ellen helps women integrate as they journey, sing, and move through the day.

“Village of Ourselves” will be held at the Wise Woman Center on May 16, 2004, from 10am-5pm. The sliding scale fee of $50-$75 includes a delicious vegetarian lunch.

To reserve your place, contact the Wise Woman Center with your $25 deposit. Mail to PO Box 64, Woodstock, NY 12498, or register online at http://www. ash-tree-publishing. com (http://www. ash-tree-publishing. com).

Ellen Weaver, CSW, MTh, is a teacher, healer, body-centered psychotherapist, pastoral counselor, ritual cocreator, and mentor. She is the Director of MotherTree in Woodstock, and has taught at Omega, Woodstock Women's Health, the Benedictine Health Foundation, Woodstock Jewish Congregation and elsewhere.

Founded twenty years ago by internationally acclaimed author and herbalist Susun Weed, the Wise Woman Center exists with the purpose of offering a safe space for women to rediscover the Wise Woman Way. Nestled in deep magical woods and located between Woodstock and Saugerties, 5 miles from the NYS Thruway, the Wise Woman Center is easily accessible while still private. Studies include plant identification, herbal medicine, cancer prevention, women and chanting, goddess belly dancing, and feeding the creative spirit.
