RITUAL CLOSING OF THE CONFERENCE
This will give you the opportunity to register for the various unfolding of the conference
To know more about the format of the conference, what is happening, and when so you may plan your day.
Know Workshops offered in the four categories of Maiden, Mother, Queen, and Crone.
From the Conference Organizing team to the Facilitators offering the various workshops to the Participants attending the conference, we are all woven together in an interconnected Energetic Exchange of Giving and Receiving to and from each other to Co-Create an experience of Grace, Gratitude, and Generosity in service of the Greater Good.
The present state of Consumeristic Objectified Linear Rhythm-lacking navigation has resulted in continued alienation, mis - attunement of Human Awareness with the Earth and all her creatures. Furthermore, this alienation has propitiated continued abuse and violence of and on Earth. Its mirrored in-habitation is held with and within the knowing of a womb female and reflected in her own disconnected relationship with her body, her bleeding, her sexuality, and her feminine creativity including birthing. Now more than ever before there is an immediate and urgent need for Human Womb Birthing Female to re-turn, re-member, and regulate into her ancient cyclic feminine womb knowing to stand in her place as the beginning (of life) with Autonomy and Authority on her own terms and in her choosing. She needs her sisterhood, womanhood, and her fore-mothers to stand with her in this process. Through this Conference, we hope to locate and initiate that movement.
The Mission of the conference is to host a safe trauma-informed space that supports the Co-Creation of Sisterhood that is able to
The emergence of a global Sisterhood
rooted in the Cyclic Earth Rhythm paradigm of life

Conference Visionary/Director
We are the guardians of the Dark-Light Earth Wisdom Traditions. It is the all-permeating Cyclic Rhythm of Earth Life.
It consists of four phases of Being, transitioning from Being to Doing, Doing, and transitioning from Doing to Being. Everything on Earth is in-formed in, through, and into this rhythm like Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. It is mirrored in the way Life cycles and recycles on Earth through the stages of Being Born ---> then Waxing (Growing and Developing, Reaching a Threshold of Expressions in Parts and Whole) ----> Becoming Full -----> Then Waning back (disintegrating and receding towards death, composting, becoming Earth) ----> to New Life (born again). This rhythm waxes and wanes in the womb of a woman, and is mirrored in the four Life cycle stages of a Wom(b)an namely Maiden, Mother, Queen, and Crone. We invite you to explore this playlist that shares in great detail the rhythm and its mirrored in-habitation on Earth.
Please reach us at rekha.gkurup@gmail.com if you cannot find your question here.
The conference is hosted and organized by She Stands Tall Project (SSTP) and its volunteers. Everyone on our leadership and volunteer team is a graduate of the Year-long Shaktiship program (facilitated by Rekha Kurup) of SSTP. Many are also, circle holders through SSTP.
Instead of having that mindset of FREE and CHARGED, we are choosing an anciently new paradigm from our land. In the Desi Indian earth way of life, the Receiver and Giver in their exchange collectively experience Grace, Generosity, and Gratitude. Giver and Receiver are seen as inseparable halves of the Whole; one needs the other, one cannot exist without the other. There is no bigger or smaller, better or best among the two.
Our conference mirrors this paradigm.
We are hosting this conference in a continued energetic exchange of Giving and Receiving among those attending, those organizing/hosting the conference, and it's offerings.
We are all Giving to each other.
We are all Receiving from each other.
We are in a Sacred exchange, and We invite you to find your place in this Sacred Exchange of Being a Giver and a Receiver.
EVERYONE. We hope that everyone (human females and males) is able to attend and receive from the various offerings in their own way.
Through this conference, while we hope to CALL-IN and BRING TOGETHER Wom(b)en from in and around the world, we also, acknowledge that our first point of contact would be through the network of SSTP enthusiasts, friends, supporters, and patrons. We are also, aware that the majority of our LIVE audience will come from South Asia, primarily India. We are excited about that, and encourage more and more Indian women to join us at the conference. It is so important for us to explore this conversation of Being a Wom(b)an in our own Autonomy, Authority, and Choosing, and to include the consequences we navigate for that choice.
We acknowledge that the conference focuses on the Human Womb Female. That is because the Human female - her being, body, and womb is the foundational experience of Home, Safety, and Connection for every human life. She is the mirror of the Mother. In our primal early experience of attunement with her is how we learn to attune in our relationship with Self and Others in our Adult life.
Who, How, Where, and When she became our mother, her autonomy in the process of motherhood, who witnessed and supported her in that journey, and her ability to self-regulate her mental and emotional state are all foundational to our becoming an emotionally Mature Human Adult in personal, relational and communal life.
So knowing her, and healing our relationship with her is an integral part of being able to fully embody human consciousness on Earth. There is no avoiding it.
The conference is happening in Indian Standard Time making it possible for those in Asia, Australia, and Europe to attend it LIVE for most or all the sessions. Those in America (or other side of Earth from India) will be able to attend conveniently the Crone track, the Mother track, and the Vagina Monologues LIVE.
*IST is ahead of GMT by 5:30 Hours (+5:30 hours)
7 PM IST on 12th May will be 9:30 PM ET
7 AM IST on 13th May will be 9:30 AM ET
We hope for the conference to be participatory, exploratory, and phenomenological in its experience. We encourage in-person attendance as much as possible, and want to limit the availability of recording so as to make the workshop space sensitive, vulnerable, and emotionally safe for everyone to be able to express themselves fully. There might be some aspects of the conference like the Opening and Closing ritual, Panel Discussions, Vagina Monologues, and Selected Interviews with facilitators on various themes and topics that will be available for later viewing.
The entire conference timeline moves according to the tracks, and within each track all the categories support the various combination of explorations.
There are four Tracks. Each track meets and addresses a specific aspect of Being Earth, Living Wom(b)an. It's like moving through the seasons of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn making room for a specific energetic imprint to be held, processed, re-membered, and reclaimed in that season.
You may access more details about the tracks here.
The process within each track can be held across eight categories.
You may access more details about the Categories here.
The track and categories will be listed on the workshop so participants can choose accordingly.
The number of workshops running in parallel per track would be Eight. That means we will be hosting a total of 32 (4 x 8) workshops over the two days in addition to the Panel Discussions, and Grounding + Integration Circle.
However, as a participant, you will be able to attend only one workshop per track and a total of four workshops at the conference. Each workshop will also, have a cap on the number of participants. So it is possible that you might not be able to attend the workshop you hoped to. However, We trust the universe and its ability to meet our needs even beyond our conscious knowing. So RSVP and reserve your spot only if you are sure of your attendance.
Our facilitators are Wom(b)en from diverse social and cultural backgrounds with experience in facilitating Wom(b)ens Wisdom, and its interconnections with Earth rhythms and Earth spirituality. They are directly part of the She Stands Tall Project community of Sisters, Friends, Supporters, and friends and contacts of our community.
We are distinguishing between who facilitates a workshop in a track and who attends. Everyone can attend every workshop in any track. However, when it comes to who facilitates the session at the conference, we are choosing to honour the Natural Order that opens with the Gateway of Age as is witnessed in most earth traditions.
We are inviting Maidens (<= 24 years) to attend and receive from everyone fully.
That is her natural right.
Through the grounding and integrations circles, we are hoping to support participants to transition from the workshops space into their personal and relational lives. It is a space for clearing, shaking off, and releasing anything that does not belong to you, and needs to be left behind. It is also, a space to express and make conscious your gained awareness from the workshops. We support four explorative tracks that will work with the body, creative arts, meditation-chanting, and words.
