Preparing the soil

This is where we begin — by tending the soil. Before diving into teachings and techniques, we invite you to pause, root, and arrive. This section offers an opening blessing, introductions, and community agreements to support the sacred container we’re co-creating. Together, we’ll explore the intentions, rhythms, and shared values that will guide us through this journey of remembering, reclamation, and return.

This is more than orientation — it’s an offering of care and clarity, so that you can feel supported, held, and resourced as you begin your path through the Garden of Self.
