Are there people in your life that ask too much, that behave in ways that don't feel good to you? Do you find it challenging to say "NO"? Are you worried that if you turn down an invitation or back out of plans that you’ll let everyone down? Are you confused about the best ways to talk about your needs? Worried about how to set limits with family as you head into the holidays? Do you find yourself often feeling resentment toward others but saying nothing?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s time for you to get some support in setting healthy, life-affirming boundaries that will improve the quality of your life, and paradoxically, improve your relationships, too!

Every living being in the natural world, every plant and animal, has instinctive and well understood ways of seeking to get their essential needs met and protecting themselves from potential harm. As humans, we need to reclaim the importance of honoring our own needs and limits and let go of the ways we have learned NOT to do so. We all need to be able to set boundaries about how we spend our time, who we spend it with, and the ways we interact with others. Many of us were not taught how to prioritize our needs. I can support you in learning these valuable life lessons! Many people need help figuring out what boundaries are best for them and how to effectively communicate and uphold those boundaries with the people in their lives (including family members, partners, work colleagues, bosses, etc.). By helping others in these situations I have developed highly effective, easy to learn lessons that help us to do this important work.

In this hands-on, participatory workshop you will learn information to help you:
*Understand what your needs are
*Develop appreciation for the importance of prioritizing yourself
*How to be in balance in meeting your needs while supporting and honoring others’ needs, too
*Learn helpful ways to express your needs to others (including precise language to use!)
*Deal with any backlash or pushback from setting boundaries
*Explore making difficult decisions about relationships with family
During our time together we will also use the beauty of the mandala to explore a creative, hands-on process that will help you begin your boundary setting work while in the supportive context of the workshop. You are guaranteed to walk away with new-to-you useful tools, practices, language, and self-care practices to help you reclaim your time and energy.

Tending Grief in Troubled Times
6 session, in-person healing gathering
Wednesday evenings October 8 - November 19 (skip 10/29)
5:30 - 7:30pm
(Please see registration details at bottom of description.)

We live in troubled times in which many of us can’t bear to read another horrible headline. We mourn for the Earth, our neighbors, victims of violence and oppression, and for ourselves and our families. You likely have also experienced some sort of personal loss: death of a loved one, relationship ending, financial fear, and the loss of a sense of security while upheaval happens all around us.

Yet, in our culture, we are expected to muster on despite the pain we feel about great hardship and loss in the world. These losses are real and impactful, and there are healthy, adaptive ways of tending to personal and collective grief in order to remain healthy and strong. When we intentionally honor grief we are better able to take care of ourselves and our loved ones, and carry on with life with hope of helping to create a more beautiful world.

If you’ve struggled with overwhelm, depression, shock, or hopelessness (all manifestations of untended grief)) when facing everything in your personal life AND the intensity of what’s happening in the world around us, you need and deserve support and care to help you heal. I invite you to join me for a 6-week, in person, grief tending and healing group.

In this community grief work experience you will:
*Be witnessed, honored, and validated in your grief
*Engage your creative side to express grief through writing, art, music, and ritual
*Be held as part of a caring community and get out of isolation
*Learn about the multifaceted nature of normal and healthy grief
*Learn practices for tending to your own grief
*Learn to support others who are grieving
*Connect with valuable resources to support you in your grief healing process
*Deepen your capacity for grief, which will deepen your capacity for experiencing gratitude and joy

This series will be facilitated by Justina Prenatt, a deeply compassion based therapist who has supported the community in grief work and healing from bereavement and loss for over 12 years. Justina is also a poet, priestess, and spirit-led activist who deftly combines practical, evidence-based healing approaches with grounded yet powerful ways of connecting with the wisdom and energies of the natural world.

This group healing series is being offered with a sliding scale payment option. Pay in full for the 6-week series $240 - $480, or choose the weekly payment option $40 - $80 for each weekly session. Lower end sliding scale is to make the group accessible to as many people as possible. Please pay at a lower level if you have significant financial limitations, and choose a higher level on the sliding scale based on your ability to support this important work and the facilitator. Thank you.

To register for this group healing series, please send payment via Venmo to @Justina-Prenatt or PayPal: paypal.me/justinaprenatt (choose "friends and family" payment option)

Choose your rate on sliding scale then send payment for the full session ($240-$480) or you can choose to pay weekly by sending payment for week 1 ($40-$80).

Hello, I’m Whitley D. English, the founder of WNC GEMS (Generating Empowerment through Mindful Solutions). As a community health worker specializing in violence prevention, and a holistic wellness facilitator, my journey has been deeply shaped by my own experiences.

www.WNCGEMS.org

WNC GEMS was born out of my personal near-death experience with intimate partner violence. As a survivor, I have become a passionate advocate for others, tirelessly working to support our community in creating a better quality of life for all.

In these sound healing sessions, I invite you to take a moment for yourself, to reset and restore. I will guide you through a peaceful meditation using frosted crystal quartz bowls, allowing their soothing vibrations to support your well-being. You will also have the opportunity to enhance your experience with high-vibe essential oils and select an oracle card to further support your personal journey.

I offer these sessions with a suggested $25 donation, which can be made through Cash App, PayPal, or cash. However, please know that no one will be turned away due to financial constraints. My intention is for everyone to be able to relax, reset, and honor themselves. Come as you are, and allow yourself to reconnect, recharge, and nurture your nervous system. You deserve it.

Calling wild-hearted women, in and around the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville ~ let’s stir up some sisterhood magic in 2026.

Using the tools of story, music, meditation, journaling, ritual and community sharing we will co-create a space to connect with our own inner guidance, intuition & creativity.

In Wild Woman Project Circles we share in a monthly theme and look to the natural world as a teacher, friend & guide. Women of all faiths or no faiths are welcome here. There are no “have-tos” in Circle; Everything is optional. You are encouraged to sit on the throne of your own spiritual authority.

In Circles, we are not are not here to fight. We are not here to tell each other what to do or think. We are here to listen – deeply. We are here to heal and to bless. We are here to create. We are here to remind one another that we are not too much, but juuust enough.

While we wild women tend to go deep and feel a lot, our Circles are a playful practice where we aim to not take ourselves too seriously. If this sounds intriguing or exciting to you, we’d love to have you.
