And then there are the cravings.. Oh, la!
A woman may crave to be near water, or be belly down, her face in the earth, smelling the wild smell.
She might have to drive into the wind.
She may have to plant something, pull things out of the ground or put them into the ground.
She may have to knead and bake, rapt in dough up to her elbows.
She may have to trek into the hills, leaping from rock to rock trying out her voice against the mountain.
She may need hours of starry nights where the stars are like face powder spilt on a black marble floor.
She may feel she will die if she doesn’t dance naked in a thunderstorm,
sit in perfect silence,
return home ink-stained, paint-stained, tear-stained, moon-stained.
―Clarissa Pinkola Estés

What will I get from this course?

This self-paced retreat is a gentle, nourishing journey home to yourself.  

• You'll return home to your body, to reconnect with her needs, wants and desires. 

• You'll be led home to the present moment each day in order to find rest and renewal, that "me-time" so many of us constantly crave 

• You'll remember your sensual self, where you live life awake, embodied and connected to yourself and all of life around you.  

• You'll be invited to return to nature to reclaim your sense of belonging to this world that holds deep wisdom and infinite beauty.

• You'll be reunited with your inner wise woman, attuning to her intuition and her guidance.

The healing begins here, and it feels soooo good! Finally. Part of my undoing, and relearning requires a loving, smiling, playful goddess who understands my innermost feminine self, because she too is me. A goddess guru who not only guides but is guided by the Sacred Divine of Feminine Connection! Toi Lynn Wyle is unlike any woman with whom I have blended paths. Not only does she have a beautiful relationship with the earth, but the sky as well! With the day and the night. And the gifts she shares, and the way we grow all together ~ like old vines ~ as she waters us, feeds us, encourages us to keep reaching down deep and up high, is one of the most divine bits of the universe I have ever witnessed. Have I grown up? Yes. Have I grown down? Oh indeed! Still, I have only begun to learn I am complete. Toi Lynn has introduced me to my spirit guides (who knew I had one, much less, many!?) She has played, giggled, cried, listened, she has spoken and taken me on journeys I will never forget. My heart just keeps unfolding, it’s endless. Nurtured by the winter retreat, I feel not only a deeper connection to my intuition and place on Mother Earth, but a strong bond between other women. The circle reaches far. It is safe. It’s is beautifully nurturing. It is necessary. I am ever grateful to Toi Lynn.

I’m writing to thank you for the retreat, Awakening Shakti. I wasn’t sure what to expect but felt drawn to your course because of your energy. It was both profound and gentle. Everyone came at different points, different ideas and you accommodated everyone seamlessly. I love that you encouraged everyone to go at their own pace, to take what they needed. Each mediation, each activity, every word and image built this safe sort of cocoon for my own exploration of my own desires and my own journey. Your obvious knowledge of this process made it seem natural and effortless but I know it went so well because of your expertise, hard work and ability to guide the circle. This is no small feat. I’ve done 2 different online courses in the past few years and none were as awesome as this one. I just didn’t get to the same place. But in yours I discovered so much about myself. I actually felt a part of the circle (instead of looking from the outside). I felt the support of you and of the circle of wonderful women and I also felt comfortable to explore my own soul work privately. You allowed things to unfold naturally and gave guidance at just the right times. It was the perfect balance. I’ve been opened. Thank you, very deep gratitude to you. I look forward to the next!

I've officially registered! And I read every word from the link provided with all the accolades from previous participants. I recommend anyone considering one of Toi Lynn's events to read through this. Everything I read was a solid bullseye in truth. I never felt so in touch with myself than while I was participating in Toi Lynn's winter women's retreat. This is something you can do at your own pace, in your own time. Participate actively or quietly. Your choice. No pressure. And you feel and know that you are never alone in the process. Best retreat I have ever been a part of...and had the most growth from. I Highly recommend this experience for anyone that wants to reach her highest potential of self knowledge and growth. I look forward to learning and growth with sisters I know, have recently met and those I will meet and grow to love. Till then...♥♡♥♡"
