In just a few days, December will arrive, which is the first true winter month. It is often called the month of dreams, as many animals go into hibernation during this time, and in nature, darkness prevails while the seeds rest beneath the earth.
For us humans, this is also an excellent opportunity to give ourselves the time and space for rest and to deepen our connection with ourselves. Then, we reach December 21st, the Winter Solstice, when new light is born from the heart of winter. The days begin to lengthen again, and the growing light brings hope and heralds the promise of rebirth, the arrival of spring.
In our Women's Circle this month, we will similarly move from understanding and accepting our shadow side, to integrating it, and ultimately to fully embracing ourselves. This process allows us to focus on our unique light, our values, and to celebrate them, without feeling the need to hide our weaknesses.
We will connect with and celebrate every part of our being – from our bodies to our souls and our thoughts – and we will also discover parts of ourselves and values that we may not have noticed before. I promise that you will definitely surprise yourself! :) This will be a truly magical adventure of self-discovery, and by the end, we will have fallen deeply in love with ourselves. We will know that we are more than enough, and we were born to accomplish amazing things.
This month, we’ll have two live workshops at Čajovna Šamanka (IP Pavlova): the first on Tuesday, December 10 (7–9 PM), and the second, exceptionally, on Saturday, December 21 (1–5:30 PM) – the day of the Winter Solstice. This will be a very special half-day workshop. In the first part, we will paint a Year Planner Mandala under the guidance of my dear friend, a mandala painter and dot artist. You’ll learn the dotting technique and create your own year planner mandala on the outer surface of a pocket mirror (which you can carry with you throughout the year, reminding you of your intentions).
In the second part of the event, you will take part in a beautiful cacao ceremony, and of course, there will be plenty of conversation and connection, as always in our Women's Circles. :)
The price for the December 21st event is higher than usual due to its complexity and length. However, if you’ve been a member for at least two months, you can attend for free (within your membership). This is my Christmas gift to you. :)

IMPORTANT ADDITIONS TO THE MEMBERSHIP
• A Weekly Moon Calendar: The moon holds immense power, physically affecting the Earth and our bodies, so it’s worth noting the phases. This weekly Moon Calendar I'll provide helps you follow the moon’s cycles, connect with your femininity and personal cycles, and grow in awareness. It includes a brief summary each day on areas to focus on, plus which body part or organ to pay extra attention to, along with dietary and lifestyle tips. And I write a different mantra for every day to help focus your intentions.
• Additionally, we will place emphasis together on the opening and closing of the month, allowing us to set our intentions with greater awareness and later review what has been realized and what we need to release. During the New Moon, we’ll set intentions together, and at the Full Moon, we’ll focus on release and gratitude
WHAT ELSE THE MEMBERSHIP INCLUDES
• A multi-day (lasting 1-2 weeks) online challenge each month which includes 1-2 journaling prompts daily related to the monthly theme, or other mindfulness exercises that can be completed in a short time, just a few minutes every day, to help you stay focused. During the challenge, we stay connected with each other, inspiring each another.
In the December we will have a wonderful 24-day Self-Care Advent calendar that we will open together, and it’s the most beautiful gift we can give ourselves. I can’t wait!
• Additional content like meditations, recipes, and rituals to deepen your journey
• Access to key practices and meditations from live sessions, if you cannot attend in person
• A chat space for ongoing connection and support
• A monthly social event to build bonds with other members in a relaxed, informal setting.
The price of the Membership is 800 CZK/month (which usually includes the two tickets for the two life sessions. This month, the price of the half-day mandala painting workshop will only be fully included if you are already in your second month as a member. However, if you join now, you will only need to pay an additional 400 CZK difference.)
If you're looking to bring more awareness into your everyday life and want to be part of a circle of inspiring women, this is the perfect opportunity for you! :)
Can't wait to have you as part of this incredible Circle. <3
With love,
Zita
