וְאַתֶּ֧ם תִּהְיוּ־לִ֛י מַמְלֶ֥כֶת כֹּהֲנִ֖ים וְגֹ֣וי קָדֹ֑ושׁ אֵ֚לֶּה הַדְּבָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר תְּדַבֵּ֖ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל (Shemot 19:6)
Marriage is the Foundation (Yesod) of Society; the Community and the Land is the Kingdom (Malkhut). We heal the Land and build a Righteous Kingdom by creating a strong sense of Unity rooted in healthy, holy, whole marriages. Healing Relationships IS Nation Building!
Educating our Tzidkanlot on every aspect of marriage through the Four Levels of Torah is the Key to empowering the collective: as the wife is the Crown of her husband as his tzela & Ezer Kenegdo. Most importantly, woman is the first teacher of the Nation, as the Torah is given to the child from the womb and a child is nourished as much by mother’s Understanding as by milk.

A special and Sacred initiatory container:
Over the course of 13 weeks-- mirroring the resplendent monthly recurrence of the Moon according to the ancestral indigenous calendar that includes the veiled feminine wisdom of the hidden 13th month-- join us in this transformative journey to reclaim the serenity of your Beit Rachem though holistic reproductive health, mystic ancient wisdom and profound embodiment modalities.
Women are the daughters, healers, mothers, leaders, & lovers of this earth. We create the fabric of life by occupying roles of leadership, creativity, nurturing, and so much more. Accordingly, Women have unique health needs and societal challenges that deserve due attention. Our community of grandmothers, aunts, and crones are vanishing and ancient rituals struggle to remain preserved. The very health centers and hospitals that should provide care are harming, dishonoring & violating women, dramatically worsening health challenges.
Welcome to an intensive initiation into everything from the Science of Fertility & Conscious Conception, Hormonal Polarity & Relationship Deepening, Mindful Release & Infant/child Loss Grief Relief. In an age where studies reveal massive inequalities, disparities, & injustices in Black Maternal Healthcare, we are Empowered to Transmute the Chaos which galvanises and divides regarding the reproductive legislative space by which this Nation is currently polarised.
Baptize yourself in this comprehensive exploration of the Nature-based Science confirming the validity of our Ancestral Womb Wisdom
