About the Book

Each Red Tent is a unique reflection of the community of women who create it. But these varied spaces share something in common.

• The longing for connection and belonging.
• The sharing of how we are feeling and who we are in our lives.
• The nourishment of ourselves and each other.
• The slowing down, the rest, the replenishment.
• The simple act of sharing time and space with a group of women.
• The opportunity to let go of the other responsibilities in our lives.

When women come together, magic happens. We know this to be true from our own experience. We have also seen that when these Red Tent communities grow, they can become a beacon to others.

In this book we weave together the voices and experiences of many, many women, to create a shared story about the role Red Tents can play in our lives. We document our shared hope, vision and dream – Red Tents as liberatory community spaces for women around the world.

As well as inspiration and practical learning, we have included some questions and practices to support you and to stimulate discussion about some of the challenges we know Red Tents face.

Written by the founders of the Red Tent Directory, including interviews with over 70 women from diverse backgrounds who run Red Tents, this book provides the practical support women need to establish and sustain a Red Tent in their own community.

• Common challenges and how to overcome them
• Building Red Tent spaces that are liberatory and challenge oppression
• Leading together and making your tent sustainable.

This book will provide you with Inspiring, grounded, tried and tested advice for creating a safer and more inclusive space.

Thanks to everyone who joined our May 2024 live virtual Book Club where Amantha and Lucy discussed ‘Finding Spiritual Connection from our Ancient Roots’.

If you missed the live event, you can watch a replay of Amantha’s book club here.

About the Book

What if we didn’t have to look to other traditions for our spiritual practice?

What if we could connect to the roots of our own ancestors’ rituals?

Amantha Murphy was schooled in the ancient and hidden lore of wise women and healers, rooted in the Irish landscape and guarded over the years by her female forebears. In The Way of the Seabhean, she brings to life shamanic practices from the Irish tradition, combining story, ritual, energy teaching and the insights gathered from her own shamanic journeying.

At its core lies the pre-Celtic understanding of the Tree of Life and the Wheel of the Year, containing the seasonal turning points such as Samhain and Imbolc, their attendant festivals and the role and powers of long-suppressed Irish goddesses. Along with the better-known goddesses, Medb, Brigid, Áine and the Cailleach, we also meet a pantheon that includes Tailtiú, Boann, Macha, Tlachtga. These goddesses are archetypes, aspects of ourselves, which can help us to understand and embrace our many facets.

The Way of the Seabhean outlines a range of shamanic practices as well as rituals and rites of passage. It explains the chakras as they are understood in the Irish tradition and how to balance them.

Amantha’s shamanic teaching in Ireland, the US and Canada has already opened the Way of the Seabhean to an eager audience.

As the material for this book is rooted in the oral tradition, it is perhaps fitting that dyslexia prevented Amantha from writing it alone. She turned instead to her chosen ‘scribe’, writer Orla O’Connell, whose work initially involved transcribing from more than 200 recordings of Amantha’s lectures, workshops, shamanic journeys and rituals.

Amantha Murphy is a mother and grandmother, celebrant, storyteller, Seabhean teacher, seer, and healer in the traditional Irish way, initiated by her grandmother.

She lives in County Kerry, Ireland, and began her spiritual work publicly in 1970 as a clairvoyant before moving into trance mediumship and healing.

Amantha’s first book is Drinking from the Source. Guided by her spirit and ancestral teachers, Amantha works with individuals and groups. She delivers apprenticeship training in Ireland, Canada and the United States on The Way of the Seabhean and Ancient Irish Shamanism. She leads sacred pilgrimages in Ireland since 1995. Her passion is the land – working through the Grandmothers, the Tuatha Dé Danann, and the Ancient Ones.

Thanks to everyone who joined our March 2024 live virtual Book Club where Carly and Lucy discussed ‘Embodying the Inanna Myth in the 21st Century’.

If you missed the live event, you can watch a replay of Carly’s book club here:

About the Book

The heroine is one who has remembered, reclaimed and reconnected with her unfettered red thread. She has been initiated into the spirit of the depths by her dark sister, and walks with newfound, embodied authority into the upperworld.

When our lives fall apart, we often feel broken, ashamed and deeply alone. But what if you knew, as you experienced this descent, that it was mapped out in a myth thousands of years old? What if, despite the uniqueness of your own life and experiences, each stage of the process was universal? The journey of descent and rising is the core initiation of the feminine – the heroine’s journey – one travelled by billions of women before you.

Descent & Rising explores real stories of women’s descents into the underworld of the psyche – journeys of dissolution, grief and breakdown precipitated by trauma, fertility issues, loss of loved ones, mental health struggles, FGM, sexual abuse, birthing experiences, illness, war, burnout…

This is territory that Carly Mountain, psychotherapist and women’s initiatory guide, knows intimately, and guides us through with exquisite care and insight, using the ancient Sumerian myth of the goddess Inanna as a blueprint. She maps not only the descent but the rising and familiarises us with a process of female psycho-spiritual growth overlooked in patriarchal culture.

The heroine’s journey is an erotic, mystical initiation that revivifies our place in the shape of things…The fodder of our descents provides the compost from which the richest fruits of our lives can grow. If only we can turn towards our pain and let it work in us.

Carly Mountain is a women’s initiatory guide, a psychotherapist, a psychosexual somatic therapist, yoga teacher, breathworker and writer. For the last twenty years she has worked with sacred embodied practices. Carly stumbled across the Inanna story during her own descent to the underworld and was astonished by the symmetry it held with her own lived experience. Since then she has devoted to working with the myth and specialises in beholding others as they traverse the depths of initiation; both in therapy, breathwork and within courses that support women’s awakening and unfolding. 

In 2019 Carly self-published her first poetry pamphlet Jouissance – Poetry of the Deep Feminine. Descent & Rising: Women’s Stories and the Embodiment of the Inanna Myth is Carly’s debut non-fiction book. She lives in Sheffield, England with her husband and two daughters.

Thanks to everyone who joined our January live virtual Book Club where Eila and Lucy discussed ‘Women and Water – Finding Our Flow’.

If you missed the live event, you can watch a replay of Eila’s book club here:

About the Book

The Other Side of the River: stories of women, water and the world is a deep searching into the ways we become dammed and how we recover fluidity. It is a journey through memory and time, personal and shared landscapes to discover the source, the flow and the deltas of women and water.

Rooted in rivers, inspired by wetlands, sources and tributaries, this book weaves its path between the banks of memory and story, from Florida to Kyoto, storm-ravaged New Orleans to London, via San Francisco and Ghana. We navigate through flood and drought to confront the place of wildness in the age of technology. Part memoir, part manifesto, part travelogue and part love letter to myth and ecology, The Other Side of the River is an intricately woven tale of finding your flow … and your roots.

A person belongs forever to the land that clains her most persistently, calls her obsessively, shatters her conceptions of self, shapes her, and loves her so radically that her own heartbeat is felt in the soil.

Eila Kundrie Carrico is a mesmerising new female voice in the American canon of nature writing. Her writing is a celebration of wild nature and cultures that has the power to awaken a felt sense of our collective human story as deeply embedded in the natural world.

Eila Kundrie Carrico grew up in rural central Florida. Her curiosity led her down a meandering path of discovery from a young age. She was inspired by her studies in journalism, anthropology and religion to travel around the world and teach in Paris, Ghana, Thailand and India. She studied yoga and embodied archetypes for nine years before completing a master’s degree in Engaged World Psychology and then an MFA in Creative Writing and Consciousness in San Francisco.

Eila is a weaver and wordsmith who delights in the mystery and magic of landscapes and memory. She lives in Berkeley with her partner and their little boy where she teaches yoga and weaves stories. The Other Side of the River is her first book.

About the Book

Cycles of Belonging: Honouring ourselves through the sacred cycles of life is a guide to unlocking the powers of cyclic living to lead a more fulfilling, meaningful, and wholehearted life. It offers an embodied feminine and feminist psycho-spiritual path for women to reclaim their inner wisdom, follow the callings of their soul, and come home to a profound sense of belonging to the seasons and cycles of life.

Cycles of Belonging guides you through six sacred temples of belonging:

• Presence – the breath cycle
• Daily Rhythms – the circadian cycle
• Sacred Blood – the menstrual cycle
• The Moon – the lunar cycle
• The Sun – the solar cycle, exploring the seasons and the wheel of the year
• The Life Cycle & Goddess Archetypes – exploring the life cycle archetypes of Maiden, Lover, Mother, Queen and Crone

Each Temple explores the energies of each cycle, their healing gifts and shadows/challenges, together with practical suggestions on how to work with the cycles, including journal prompts, rituals and blessings, as well as magical words of poetry and soul guidance.

Stella Tomlinson is a Priestess, author and restful meditation guide, sharing a healing path honouring life’s sacred cycles and the callings of the soul.

At the September 2023 live virtual Book Club, Molly Remer discussed her book Walking with Persephone and ‘Stepping into Everyday Priestessing’ with Lucy H. Pearce.

If you missed the live event, you can watch a replay of Molly’s book club here:

About the Book

Walking with Persephone: A Journey of Midlife Descent and Renewal

Midlife can be a time of great change – inner and outer. How do we journey through this…and what can we learn in the process? Molly Remer is our personal guide to the unraveling and reweaving required in midlife. She invites us to take a walk with the goddess Persephone, whose story of descent into the Underworld has much to teach us. This book is a journey of soul-rebuilding, of putting the pieces of oneself back together.

Walking with Persephone weaves together personal insights and reflections with experiences in practical priestessing, family life, and explorations of the natural world. It advocates opening our eyes to the wonder around us, encouraging the reader to both look within themselves for truths about living, but also to the earth, the air, the animals, and plants we share our lives with.

Part memoir, part poetry, part soul guide, Molly’s evocative voice is in the great American tradition of sacred nature writing.

Molly Remer, MSW, D.Min, is a priestess, mystic, and poet in central Missouri. Molly and her husband Mark co-create Story Goddesses at Brigid’s Grove. Molly is the author of ten books, including Walking with Persephone, Whole and Holy, Womanrunes, the Goddess Devotional, and 365 Days of Goddess. She is the creator of the devotional experience #30DaysofGoddess and she loves savoring small magic and everyday enchantment.

At the July 2023 live virtual Book Club, Natalie Bryant-Rizzieri and Lucy H. Pearce discussed ‘Modernity, Mysticism and Everyday Women’.

If you missed the live event, you can watch a replay of Natalie’s book club here:

About the Book

Muddy Mysticism: The Sacred Tethers of Body, Earth, and Everyday is a heartfelt response to the lack of mystical literature by those who have chosen to be bound by the eros and gravity of family, love, work, and the world. It is a lyrical articulation of an emergent feminist mysticism. Through prose and poetry, Natalie explores the possibility of direct experience with the divine beyond the bounds of a particular belief system. She advocates that ordinary life in the modern world is not something to be transcended or escaped but is a mystical path in its own right.

Muddy Mysticism offers consolation and a way forward for those who feel the truth and bewilderment that the German Jesuit priest, Karl Rahner, touched upon when he said that the only way a person would survive with an intact faith in this century is by being a mystic.

She spends her free time, at least in spring, digging for earthworms, watching for ravens and collecting moss. She is making a home deep in the forest near Flagstaff, Arizona, with her husband and three sons. This is her first book.

Thanks to everyone who tuned into our May 2023 book club featuring Melia Keeton-Digby, author of the beautiful and much-needed The Heroines Club and The Hero’s Heart.

About the Books

The Heroines Club: A Mother-Daughter Empowerment Circle offers nourishing guidance and a creative approach for mothers and daughters, aged 7+, to learn and grow together through the study of women’s history.

Each month focuses on a different heroine, featuring athletes, inventors, artists, and revolutionaries from around the world including Frida Kahlo, Rosalind Franklin, Amelia Earhart, Anne Frank, Maya Angelou and Malala Yousafzai as strong role models for young girls to learn about, look up to, and be inspired by.

Offering thought-provoking discussion, powerful rituals, and engaging creative activities, The Heroines Club fortifies our daughters’ self-esteem, invigorates mothers’ spirits, and nourishes the mother-daughter relationship. In a culture that can make mothering daughters seem intimidating and isolating, it offers an antidote: a revolutionary model for empowering your daughter and strengthening your mother-daughter relationship.

The Hero’s Heart – A Coming of Age Circle for Boys (And the Mothers who Love them) is a groundbreaking new approach to raising healthy, compassionate, and emotionally intact young men. Innovative and timely, this mother-son curriculum is an answer to what our boys need in order to thrive – rather than just survive – in the current culture of traditional masculinity. With genuine encouragement and invaluable insight, Melia inspires mothers to create the intentional communities, character-shaping opportunities, and rite-of-passage experiences that adolescent boys crave. The Hero’s Heart is a gift to anyone involved in raising or nurturing boys.

By sharing The Hero’s Heart together, your son will:

• Develop a strong sense of self and values.
  Learn to be comfortable with intimacy, authenticity, and vulnerability in relationships with others.
  Develop a solid working relationship with his own inner guidance system.
  Be well-prepared to safely navigate peer-pressure, drugs, alcohol and sex.

A revolutionary twelve-month journey for mothers and sons, ages 9–14 to explore the core values and themes our boys need most in their passage to healthy young manhood.

Thanks to everyone who attended our March 2023 Womancraft book club, featuring the beautiful Mother in the Mother by Pippa Grace.

Watch a replay of the Mother in the Mother book club here:

About the Book

When a woman becomes a mother, it is often a time she reflects back upon the way she herself was mothered. Our maternal inheritance from our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and beyond can have a great influence upon the ways in which we choose to bring up our own children.

Whilst much has been written about the complexity of the mother/daughter relationship, Mother in the Mother explores new territory by looking at the three-way relationship between grandmother, mother and child. Featuring the voices of over 50 mothers from a diverse range of ages, cultural backgrounds and experiences exploring themes of: love, stress, loss, healing, belonging, infertility, mental and physical health issues, twin pregnancy, adoption, pre-maturity, sexuality, single motherhood, young motherhood, abortion, maternal ambiguity and long-distance relationships with families of birth.

This is a personal and her-storic exploration of maternal lineage by project creator, Pippa Grace. Guidance on creating your own healing, creative projects based on the activities used in Mother in the Mother workshops. Diverse, rich, celebratory, challenging, sometimes painful and ultimately uplifting together the stories in Mother in the Mother illuminate how the strength of maternal love can have the power to heal and overcome adversity.

Pippa Grace is a socially engaged artist, writer and sculptor. Her work brings together over 24 years of training and working in the worlds of holistic health, body work, dance, creative writing, journalism, film, photography and sculpture.

She has run participatory arts projects with a diverse range of communities since 2001. She facilitates the sharing of stories and the creation of ‘visual narratives’ at beautifully held workshops. Participants tell their story using a combination of media including textiles, book-making, creative writing and digital storytelling. Pippa is particularly interested in helping to give voice to the quiet, every-day stories that may otherwise be overlooked or forgotten. Where voices have been silenced, her practice helps them find a creative way to speak out.

A passionate feminist for as long as she can remember, Pippa specialises in working women, exploring issues including motherhood, grand-motherhood, menarche, the female body and trauma. In her sculptural practice, she investigates the ways in which our personal and collective stories are frequently embedded within our bodies. All of her work is grounded by an ongoing fascination with, and research into, the healing qualities of literature, myth, fairytale, storytelling, dream and archetype.

Pippa lives in Bristol and is a mother to two amazing daughters.

About the Book

The tenth book from bestselling author of Burning Woman, Medicine Woman, Moon Time and Creatrix, Lucy H. Pearce.

She of the Sea is a lyrical exploration of the call of the sea and the depth of our connection to it, rooted in the author’s personal experience living on the coast of the Celtic Sea, in Ireland.

This book spans from coastal plants to the colour blue, pebbles to prayer, via shapeshifting and suicidal ideation, erosion and immersion, cold water swimming and water birth, seaweed and cyanotypes, from Japanese freedivers and Celtic sea goddesses, selkies to surfing, and mermaids to Mary.

She of the Sea is a strange and wonderful deep dive into the inner sea and the Feminine, exploring where the real and the magical, the salty and the sacred meet, within and without, and what implications this has for us as both individuals…and a species in these tumultuous times.

Dreamlike, meditative, poetic, She of the Sea is a love song. To the ocean. To becoming. To magic. To freedom.

With contributions from thirty sea-loving artists, musicians, cold water swimmers, mothers, environmental educators, witches, mermaids, priestesses and writers from around the world, who share their love for the stretch of sea they call home, from the Irish Sea to the Caribbean, via the Mediterranean and the North Sea, the Pacific and the Atlantic.

Lucy H. Pearce is the author of ten life-changing non-fiction books for women, including her best-selling Burning Woman – an incendiary exploration of women and power – written for every woman who burns with passion, has been burned with shame, and in another time or place would be burned at the stake.
