Mother Tongue Writing Group
WITH NOËL RUTH
6 women
Will Re-Open in the Fall 2024
Explore your writing voice as Mother.
Anchor in your power and love as Woman.
“I am so smitten with Mother Tongue. It’s difficult to find a container and a community that understands the constraints of motherhood, that work with rather than against those constraints, to keep us in the flow of existing as artist/poet.”
Becoming Mother changes everything.
Suddenly, the way we were before has dissolved over and over again - a welcome dissolution for some, and a deeply challenging loss for others. For most Mothers, it is both.
Along with this surrender of identity is the surrender of the maiden voice:
She who thought she had met her edges, has now roared through threshold after threshold at the birthing altar to bring forth pure life. Where will her voice now dare to go?
She who was once only responsible for herself is now the Mama Bear frequency keeper, love storyteller, care provider, protector, and space holder for little ones. What holy ground will her voice now cover?
Suddenly, love has new flavors. Boundaries have new importance. Life has new meaning.
The Mother Tongue wants in…
But it takes time. Release. Focus. Raw honesty. Tenderness.
Join Poet, Noel Ruth, for four gentle and powerful weeks as we each explore how and where our unique Mother Tongues are ready to take root in our writing, our speech, and our lives.
THIS WRITING GROUP IS FOR WOMEN WHO:
are Mothers
Sense a creative expansion in their voice wanting to take place
Don’t resonate entirely with their former writing (so much has changed) but are unsure how to evolve
Feel avoidant (fear, insecurity, doubt) towards their current writing, or feel like when they do write it is forced
Want to integrate newfound Mother power, love, and values into their writing and life
You will receive weekly invitations and encouragement in your inbox, writing prompts to inspire your flow, and one live gathering per week for writing and sharing together with five other women.
