Temenos Center & the Temple of the Sacred Feminine

Namaste,
This flyer is essentially an announcement of my full arrival in Boulder with my beloved work, after living here for 15 years! Sounds crazy, but I started this work in Maryland in 1980 and lived there until 1995, when I moved to Boulder. Divine arrangement directed me to continue to travel back there all of these years to steward the Temenos and its offerings, which i still do.
I have spent nearly 30 years exploring Jungian Psychology and the Feminine, shamanism, consciousness, various spiritual practices and traditions, and developing the work I was given. I have been on a spiritual path since I was a small child, touched by the Mystery. In 1982, I experienced a spontaneous kundalini initiation that rearranged me, my life, and my work, which then was as a psychotherapist. I was re-directed to work with women and men in the helping professions, as well as others experiencing kundalini and/or called to a Feminine spiritual path.
The Temenos Center was birthed in 1983 after the kundalini awakening, and then the School for Women Healers, aka the Temple of the Sacred Feminine, came forth. The School/Temple is a contemporary women's mystery school, a vessel for women's initiation into the Sacred Feminine mysteries, and a training program for women involved in the healing and helping professions. It is also a large community of women, now living around the country, devoted to the embodied awakening and empowerment of the Feminine on the planet. Men are involved in the work. too.
The other 'wing' of the Temenos is the Samyama Meditation and Healing Training Program for people in the healing and helping professions. Over time, people from all walks of life have participated and now bring this amazing gift of Samyama:Alchemy of the Heart, into their personal and professional lives of all kinds.
Several months ago, at 4am one morning, that soft voice of guidance told me that it is time for me to arrive in Boulder with my full presence and this most precious work. I am here and I invite you to peruse this flyer, check out the links for more information, and please pass it on to your friends and colleagues. I am very eager to share these precious gifts that have changed me and my life, and been so beneficial to others. I welcome your contact, too.
During the coming Holy Days, may you feel the Grace that is always present!
Sheila

This call will be a guided meditation into deep listening, into the Heart of Hearts by way of the Samyama practice. I was initiated into the practice of Samyama 17 years ago, and have used it daily ever since. It is a radically, life-changing practice, especially useful during difficult times. With training, healing practitioners can incorporate Samyama into their current work to heal grief, trauma, and other psycho-spiritual issues, as well as learn the practice of Samyama Healing with others.

 New E-Book!
Sacred Feminine Initiation:
An Archetypal Journey
by Sheila Foster
This small book is the first written fruit from a 30 year
journey that documents the first days of my own call and initiations into the
Sacred Feminine Mysteries in the early 1980's.
It includes dreams, Jungian psychology, kundalini awakening,
the arising of the women's mystery school, and information about the archetypes
of the Mother, the Amazon, the Lover, the Medial and the Queen.
I also discuss the process of initiation, longing, mythic
perspective, the evolution of the mystery school, and this feminine path of
spiritual awakening. The writing is a weaving of memoir with the learnings
distilled from my time stewarding the Temenos Center and the Temple of the
Sacred Feminine. 63 pages. $10Click here to purchase:
