Women’s Web Tent ~ “Belonging”

The Red Tent movement is inspired by Anita Diamant’s fictional story, The Red Tent, and supports women in reclaiming the gifts of community as we gather together to co-create safe, woman-centered, restorative, inclusive community. Here in Hudson, MA, we have created and facilitated such a space for over 9 years!

And we are continuing this work online, during the coronavirus crisis, by creating that same Safe Space in which we enter times of sharing around a theme inspired by our Red Tent sisters.  This week’s theme is “Belonging.”

Belonging is the feeling of being part of something and mattering to others. A sense of belonging is a human need, just like the need for food and shelter. We create it through inclusion, which consists of intentional acts. Feeling that you belong is most important in seeing value in life and in coping with intensely painful emotions; a sense of belonging to a greater community improves your motivation, health, and happiness. The word “Home” is often invoked to describe Where I Belong, whether that’s engaged in a joyful practice or meaningful work, spending time in a place that just speaks to your soul, or keeping company with individuals and communities. And sometimes, we get to be that Home for others. When you enter Red Tent, you are Home. Let’s gather to share our stories, reflections, and experiences around Belonging. You are invited!

To make this as restorative a space as possible, feel free to join us surrounded by any items that bring you comfort: beverages, snacks, slippers, pets, etc.

I’d also like you to please bring a small item that speaks to you of the fabulosity that is Woman. It could be a goddess statue, a crystal, a lovely apple, anything you’re inspired to bring.

This Tent is created for adult women and mature female teens (reminder: Trans sisters, this is YOUR Tent, too!) Feel free to share this invite around!!!
