Welcome to the Sacred Wild!
Where our Mission is to bring the Sacred to the Wild and the Wild to the Sacred!
One thing we all have in common is that we are on a Journey that we collectively call Life. We are all trying to figure it out as we go and one thing that makes it easier is figuring this insanity out together!
Another thing that helps us is support. In the Sacred Wild there are 9 Ways of Being, portals oof Initiation, that we all naturally walk through on this Path:
Prepared Way of Being
Safety Way of Being
Freedom Way of Being
Liberated Way of Being
Beauty Way of Being
Unity Way of Being
Mystery Way of Being
Sacred Way of Being
Integrated Way of Being
These Portals of Initiation are Infinite in nature and we can be walking through any or all of them at anytime in different areas of our Journey. To support us as we weave these Ways of Being into our everyday Life we have the 6 Core Practices:
Prayer: Speaking with G.U.S. (God Universe Spirit)
Contemplation: Listening to G.U.S.
Meditation: Being with G.U.S.
Expression: Your Message
Movement: Your Message Embodied
Witnessing: Having your Message received and receiving others Message
You never know what may happen on this Journey. Perhaps you learn how to heal your Self. Maybe you step into a whole different world. Or find exactly what or whom you have been looking for. Maybe our whole Life changes or you change the World. One thing is for certain, though. You will not be the same Being you were when you started.
This is first and foremost a Sanctuary. A space of Safety and Freedom. What does this mean? All of you is welcome here. Every part. Every dark shadowy corner. Every ray of sunshine. Everything you want to hide and everything you want to share from the mountain top! Bring it all!
We are in this together. None of us know who we are. None of us knows what the hell we're doing. Or why we are doing it. But we get to see a more expanded vision of this Life when we bring our authentic self to the roundtable of Community and embrace the differences. Differences are what allow us to expand!
So. Let's go on a Journey, Sacred Wild Souls! We are here for it!
Origin Story
We all love a good origin story and The Sacred Wild doesn't disappoint.
There is a group of Women who gathered a couple of times a year that named themselves the Goddesses. This was a powerful group. This wasn't an organization or a business. This was a group of Powerful Women that all found their way to each other and just wanted to gather and enjoy being together.
In this group of Women was a Woman named Jenn. The first time she came to this group she still felt like a child compared to these Women, though she was in her mid thirties. She flew to Idaho with her dear Soul Sister to meet with this group of Women at what was self proclaimed to be a Goddess Gathering. And that it was.
Jenn was just learning to see the Power she had in her, to see her Self as a Woman, a Goddess. It felt to her like she was wearing a Halloween costume each time she called her Self a Goddess, but she did it anyway. She had just finished her certification in Psychedelic Integration and was excited to share all she had learned and the Goddesses were eager to witness her in her newfound, but yet to be claimed, role as Medicine Woman.
After this Gathering, Jenn walked away a Woman. This once timid and shy little girl in a grownups body was now a Goddess of a Woman with a safe and happy inner child that guided her in this Life.
Fast forward two years at a Goddess Gathering in Jenn's neck of the woods, Phoenix, Arizona. After a profound photo shoot in the desert, Jenn's offering to this Gathering is to facilitate a Mushroom Ceremony for these same Sisters that witnessed her as these seeds of manifestation were first being planted.
In this Ceremony depths were reached for everyone, included Jenn. There was one Sister in particular that went to the depths of the ancients. And, as alignment would have it, her name was Jen.
Now, for those of you who have worked with different Medicines in Ceremony, you know that anything is possible and everything is Holy and Sacred. Even the throne we currently call a toilet!
Jenn, as the facilitator, made sure she stayed with everyone until their Journey's end. All the other Goddesses had come out of the Medicine and were gathered in the bedroom laughing and talking, but Jen was still deep in the Medicine and needed to use the restroom. So we were able to get her there and while the others stayed in the room to connect, Jenn stayed with Jen to make sure she was safe and supported. She never could have anticipated what happened next.
As Jen was sitting in the restroom, drinking her water, she began channeling Ancestors. Jenn's ancestors. She told Jenn that they were doing work inside her. Healing wounds that were there for generations. After the healing was done, they were activating ancient Wisdom that lived inside of her. And then, after that was all said and done, she told Jenn that they were ready to give her their blessing. In this tiny bathroom, Jenn bows down in child's pose while Jen, still channeling the Ancestors, does a ritual blessing Jenn for the work that lays ahead of her.
One of the Sisters comes in to check on them, just to make sure they are okay and once she sees what's going on she yells out, "Oh, everything's good. The Jen(n)'s are just channeling the Ancestors!" and goes back to the fun in the other room. (This is the level of acceptance and raw authenticity that lives in these Gatherings! )
The next night, as Jenn (the facilitator) is laying on the couch, listening to the conversations going on around her, the Ancestors speak. Flooding into her mind is The Sacred Wild, the 9 Ways of Being and the Core Practices. She gets up, pulls out her phone and in an hour and half has the structure of The Sacred Wild written out. A month later, The Sacred Wild is a manifested Community.
It wasn't Jenn that created it, she would never say she did. She would tell you that she is the vessel that was willing to set aside all of her beliefs of what was real and what wasn't to be able to hear what is being told to all of us, and the one willing to give the time, attention, energy and money required to bring visions to reality.
And that is how The Sacred Wild came to be. The story continues to be just as Sacred and just as Wild as the Journey of The Sacred Wild continues. Times of expansion and times of retraction. Tears, fears, laughter and Love. Insecurities and Liberation. Confusion and clarity. In the end, we always come to the same place. It's all the same thing. Sometimes it has a different story, sometimes it has a different name and we all take different paths to get there, but it is always the same at it's core. Love.
About Jenn
Jenn lives in Phoenix, Arizona and has the honor and privilege of being Mother to two transcendent Beings, Ash and Jaeden.
Jenn has had a colorful Life that continues to get bolder and brighter everyday! The start of her Life was filled with an assortment of complex trauma. She spent the first 19 years of her Life living in constant trauma, then spent the next 19 years living in a continuous trauma response while doing everything she could to try and dig herself out of it.
After years of books, YouTube videos and free gatherings and workshops she found her way to her first coach, then her first course, then to her fist client. She is certified in Psychedelic Integration, Neurolinguistic Programming, Hypnosis, Trauma Release and Life Coaching. She is attuned in Reiki and trained in Storytelling, Altar building and Ceremonial Facilitation. She never went to College, and after a long Journey of healing has realized that is a gift. To her, the Life Experience she was given is the most valuable training and initiation she ever had, everything else taught her how to use it to serve others.
