Update
Hello to all! A lot has been happening at Beyond
the Mirror. Some NEW groups have started this spring. There’s more information about these groups in the newsletter.
We have updated our website! Be sure to look at all the NEW additions. It now includes resources for eating disorders,
healthy body image & self-acceptance. Local and national organizations that work w/ individuals on these issues are also
included.
There is a page of the website dedicated to positive quotes that have been inspirational & motivational to individuals
in recovery. Be sure to email any of your own motivating quotes/experiences &/or stories and we may be able to add them
to the website as well.
Thank you to all of you who have supported us at Beyond the Mirror. Your gratitude &

Welcome to A Place for Every Woman's Spirituality in Fort Collins.
The world's major religions have for over two thousand years focused on masculine
ways of constructing spirituality. Women sometimes need a place apart in which to explore our unique relationships with the
divine. Speaking our understandings to one another, we become confident in offering them to the world. All humanity, male
and female, then prospers. We are a not-for-profit sanctuary for all women exploring their spirituality and sharing with others
on the journey. We offer opportunities for meeting and connecting, designing ritual and celebrating, honoring women's
stories, mentoring, learning, and sharing resources (and chocolate). Women of all faith traditions are enthusiastically welcomed. Our dreams are big,
and you can join us in the creation and realization of them. We need your help and your good ideas. The menu to the left
represents some of those dreams. As they are realized the links will become live. Take a look at our new spring offerings at www.everydaymysteries.com We have an abundance waiting for you! You are Invited to Walk the Labyrinth!You are welcome ANYTIME
to walk the labyrinth, day or night. It is located just on the east side of the Studio. No need to call or give notice in any way. Many of you have already come often
to visit and walk, and I love seeing footprints in the snow or looking up from my house to see one or two or three or four
of you doing the slow circuit of the Chartres path
Open Studio is every Wednesday, 12:00 noon to 2:00 p.m. All are welcome to join me for two hours
of silence together. You can bring a book, photo album, journal, your tired body, whatever you can to do in quiet in the studio
space. Walk the labyrinth before, during, or after, this quiet time and experience the richness labyrinth
walking can bring to your busy mind.
