Claiming the Thread
A sacred spring reset for women who are done abandoning themselves & ready to align with the year ahead in a way that actually lasts
You are not meant to begin the year in the dead of winter.
Clarity doesn’t come from pressure, it comes from readiness.
Claiming the Thread is a body-led, seasonal workshop held at the threshold of spring, when light returns, the ground softens, and your inner wisdom becomes audible again.
This is where you claim the word you will walk with through the year ahead as an anchor for who you’re becoming.
✨ A word you can live inside, even when real life happens.
Why Spring Is the Time
to Choose Your Word
We are taught to set intentions while we are still tired, contracted, and recovering.
To force clarity before the body is ready.
This workshop works with the Wheel of the Year, not the calendar. Held close to Ostara, when light and dark return to balance, Claiming the Thread invites you to choose your word when the earth and your nervous system are ready to say yes.
This is not about pushing forward.
It is about orienting yourself truthfully.
This Is Not Goal-Setting.
It Is Orientation
Your word is a thread you can return to when life pulls you off centre.
In this workshop, your word doesn’t come from your head.
It emerges from your body.
From what is sustainable, not aspirational.
From what you are genuinely willing to walk with through the realness of life.
✨ This is how a word becomes lived, not abandoned.
Is Claiming
the Thread For You?
This workshop is for you if:
You are tired of over-giving and under-receiving
You struggle to stay connected to yourself once life gets busy
You crave ritual and structure without pressure or performance
You want a word of the year that actually supports your boundaries
You are done with surface-level workshops and empty motivation
This is not about fixing yourself. It is about staying with yourself.
What Happens Inside
the Workshop
Opening the Circle
A gentle but powerful arrival into shared space. Roles soften. You get to land as you are. Nothing to prove.
Somatic Journey & Guided Visualisation
A nervous-system-soothing meditation to bring you into your body and open your intuitive clarity.
Oracle Reflection
A single-card pull for orientation and insight—not prediction.
The Sacred Pathway Map
A four-directional framework to help your word root deeply:
True North – the truth you are no longer willing to abandon
South – what grounds and steadies you
East – what is beginning to move
West – the wisdom you carry from what has been lived
Claiming Your Word
Through ritual, your word is named and anchored.
It’s chosen from truth, not pressure. From willingness, not shoulds.
Sacred Vision Board
You’ll create a soul-centered vision board using a Colette Baron-Reid–inspired practice:
Place your word at the centre, as your energetic compass
Surround it with images that reflect how you want to feel
Leave space at the edges for the Universe to meet you halfway
This isn’t about manifesting a checklist.
It’s about co-creating a life that feels like home in your body.
This workshop is a beautiful gift to yourself!
“I would highly recommend this workshop – A safe and nurturing space for women to be facilitated and held in their exploration of their inner emotional world. ”
“This workshop transformed my approach to the new year. Instead of chasing resolutions, I feel grounded in my true desires. This workshop is a beautiful gift to yourself!”
“I’m so grateful for the clarity and peace I found through The Feeling’s Compass. My True North word still guides me every day!”
Walking With the
Thread Through the Year
The work doesn’t end when the circle closes.
You’ll receive a Seasonal Realignment Guide to stay in relationship with your word as the year unfolds.
Inside, you’ll find:
Seasonal reflection prompts
Quarterly rituals to reconnect with your word
Embodiment practices for when you feel off track
Gentle journaling invitations that honour your energy and capacity
✨ Because transformation happens in seasons, not checklists.
This is how you stay aligned without forcing.
If You’ve Been Waiting for a Sign....This Is It
You are allowed to move slower.
To choose differently.
To set your direction from your inner wisdom, not outside expectations.
Claiming the Thread is not just a workshop.
It’s a sacred reorientation back to your truth.
Say yes to yourself.
Say yes to your year.
Say yes to the thread that has been waiting for you to claim it.
