INTO  THE  WOMB

A Rite of Passage:

BIRTHING THE DIVINE & DANGEROUS MOTHER

Divine…

Because She Knows How To Flow Like Water in Her Truth & Magic.

Dangerous…

Because She Stands in Her Power, Wisdom & Fierce Compassion and Love.

“All the souls were first created in the Divine Mother’s womb. We all came from the Mother. Each person, each soul has a connection, a very strong link with the Divine Mother, equal to Jesus, but the layers of maya (illusion) cover it.
”
— SRI KALESHWAR

“Love is the way messengers from the mystery tell us things.
Love is the mother. We are her children.
She shines inside us , visible-invisible, as we lose trust or feel it start to grow again. ”
— Rumi

Dear Wise Mother,

Are you committed to your spiritual growth and discovery?

Are you craving an adventure and soul stirring experiences that propel you into a new way of being that disintegrates that which holds you back and births you into your joy and peace?

Are you ready to share your journey within a supportive sisterhood, where you are truly witnessed, held, seen, heard and celebrated?

Perhaps like me, you want something that is deeper and more human than a large and impersonal online class. You want connection. You want an experiential journey that will vibrate every cell in your body into that which you know, but previously had no idea how to access.

Sacred Initiations were a common practice within our mystical ancestral lineages. These initiations were practices that helped disintegrate the ego, and embrace our courage within the continual cycles of birth and death that happen within the cycles of our everyday experience, like that of the snake that sheds his skin, and the swan that gracefully glides through life with great trust, courage and beauty.

All of life is guiding us home. All of life is an initiation, and a ceremony.

Here we embrace all of life’s experience, and allow it to teach us, unravel us and birth us into truth and our innate magic of joy.

“ The longest journey you will ever travel is from your head to your heart.”

This is no ordinary journey. This is a journey future generations will be grateful you carved out time for.

Infinite Love,

Kari Rivers

WHO IS INTO THE WOMB FOR?

INTO THE WOMB is for the woman who knows that there is more to life than work, family responsibility, small talk and mimosas. She is dedicated to her spiritual path. She is gathering up her broken pieces, and unpacking the heavy burdens that are weighing her down.

While everyone needs her, she hears the voice inside, “I need me. All of me!”

She needs the mother that fully embraces all of her beauty and messiness with unconditional love for herself and all beings. She needs the mother that will brave the darkness of her own soul, face her fears and rescue herself. No longer avoiding, or apologizing, but standing in her danger with heart forward awareness.

And so it is. She steps toward herself, feeding her demons with love and compassion, her thirst and hunger with courage and forgiveness; learning how to live and die everyday, climbing the ladder of learned and embodied eternal truths.

She rebirths herself from dormancy into awakened Spirit; reclaiming her voice, her contentment and the peace and ecstasy that can only be found from within her sacred heart. It is within her own heart that she stakes her post declaring heaven as her home, here and now, and wherever she may roam; dancing, singing, and living the wild sacred truth of her multiplicity of oneness.

“We are all mothers, each in our own way: nurturing the essence of life with our hands, hearts and wombs. ”
— Kari Rivers

Surrendering in quiet awareness, she peered into her vastness.

    description

 

The mission of INTO THE WOMB is to guide women, mothers of all creation, whether it be of hands, heart and/or womb, into profound soulful relationship with themselves, nature and Spirit, which will naturally reflect into the familial unit and the sacred world around them. We are here to be a witness to the fact that when we change, the world around us does too, into that which our hearts know is possible. Doors open, pathways are made clear. Each mother becomes the guru we always wish we’d had, because she knows , understands and embraces the totality of her darkness and light. She embodies her divine essence of love & peace, truth and magic.

It’s time to surrender to all that shakes us, stirs us, breaks us, and loves us to the bone and beyond. It’s time to mother yourself and rebirth your Self.

 

Your Guide

Kari is a devoted lover, mother and mystic.

She has had a private practice, Seeds of Satya, since 2012 in Denver, CO , then relocated to Asheville, NC in 2019 where she has continued to see clients remotely and in person. She guides her clients into deep transformation through the powerful practice of Spiritual Counseling and Depth Hypnosis with a focus on Shamanic Lightwork, Ancestral Healing, Yoga, Sound & Voice Therapy, Akashic Records, Breath work, Meditation, Water Ceremony and Rite of Passage. She has led experiential workshops empowering discovery from within and our divine connection with one another, Earth and Source.

Kari is so grateful to Great Spirit who has taken her through countless sacred initiations and to Pati Turner of Sacred Earth Foundation for holding her in her first formal Rite of Passage as a new mother, and allowing her to assist in holding others in this way alongside her until Kari moved from CO to NC where she held the first INTO THE WOMB in 2021 with a group of local women during the quiet chaos of COVID. The program has been in a tender hold as she has navigated tending to the hearth, homeschooling her daughters, with intention to bring back once things align. Kari has been on many solo vision quests and held many in their own. She continues to follow the call of Great Spirit.

Kari’s life has been filled with serendipitous story and magic. She is beyond grateful for all the beauty and hardships that have birthed her into her spiritual journey and these powerful medicine ways that have transformed her life and continues to shape shift the life of so many others. She is humbled and grateful to guide those who are called into this well of magic that we are and are apart of. It is life changing.

PROFOUND Medicine

The healing work I have done with Kari has been so transformative. Traveling to deep soul level states has felt safe and well supported with her care and guidance. Her support is extremely nurturing, yet not care taking. Instead I have had the sense of her mirroring back to me a deep trust in my own Healer and Source being a part of me. Her presence, intuition and song are powerful medicine that has been such great support during extremely profound work. A psychotherapist, guide and mother myself, the work we have done together has not just benefited me, but so many others.

transformationAL & joyFUL

Working with Kari has opened me up to a new path of strength and trust. I feel empowered to take action where needed, as opposed to reacting. By healing the deep wounds of my soul, an immense compassion and gratitude exist that has helped me to see myself and my son clearly in all our ups and downs. With each wound healed, our relationship has shifted with greater understanding, patience and forgiveness, thus establishing a deep and expanding relationship with my true self, my brilliant inner light, and sharing that with my son and family has been the greatest gift.

I absolutely recommend working with Kari if you are ready to be catapulted into personal transformation, embodied healing, spiritual growth and joy.

Heart centered & Safe, Open portals withiN

Kari is truly a gifted intuitive healer. Everything she brings to her clients comes from the heart. She is invested in her clients in a way that allows one to be vulnerable, while feeling respected, heard and empowered all at the same time. She has personally helped me through some extremely trying and emotional times and I am eternally grateful. Kari has led me to open my eyes in new ways, strive to walk my true path in life, allowing me to redeem losses of power, while recognizing the gift of the journey we are all walking together. Her passion for helping others as well as her loving energy create such a safe environment while doing this intense and personal work whether that be in person or remotely, both are equally rewarding and open powerful portals of wisdom within.

A powerful threshold of transformation

I am so honored and fortunate to do Shamanic Healing with Kari. She provides a threshold of transformation, guiding and supporting me into profound relationship with myself, creating trust in the healer within me.

I’ve worked with her one on one and in group workshops for the past six years and my experiences have been powerful and transformational, leaving me filled with gratitude and joy.

Thank you Kari for your light, love, compassion and knowledge. I truly feel safe and loved when I work with you!
