We are so glad you have found your way here. MONASTICA is a modern contemplative sanctuary for all spiritual seekers and those who feel called to live The Way more deeply—rooted in the teachings of Yeshua, the wisdom of the Nazarene Essene tradition, the Judeo-Christian mystical and shamanic lineages through the devotional path of the Rose. This is a place for Silence • Simplicity • Sacred Rhythm • Embodied Devotion • Community. We are not here to give you another religious identity to adopt, we are here to cultivate a way of life. Before you begin exploring, please take a few moments to read this entire welcome post and our community agreements. 🌹 STEP ONE | ENTER THE SANCTUARY Take some time to explore MONASTICA. Visit the Calendar to discover our upcoming gatherings, Wisdom Teachings, Sanctuary Sundays, Women at the Well circles, Devotional Wellness offerings, guest facilitators, and other opportunities to gather. Then visit the Classroom, where you will find our growing library of contemplative practices, recorded teachings, devotional resources, Essene wisdom, spiritual nutrition, somatic practices, and formation materials. There is no need to consume everything. Begin where you feel drawn. MONASTICA is not another place to hurry through content. It is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and allow wisdom to become embodied through practice. 🌿 STEP TWO | INTRODUCE YOURSELF Please create a post in our community and tell us a little about yourself. You might share: • Where you are joining us from • What brought you to MONASTICA • What you are longing for in this season of your life • What you are currently exploring, questioning, healing, or uncovering in your relationship with God • Which contemplative or spiritual practices already nourish you There is no perfect way to introduce yourself. Simply arrive as you are. 🕊️ THIS IS OUR SANCTUARY MONASTICA is a monastery without walls. Although we gather online, what we are creating together is sacred space.

For those of you who carry a strong internal monastic archetype and have experience in daily devotional rhythms, spiritual discipline, the wisdom of the feminine path of Christ, or have traveled the Essene path, I invite you to share your sacred gifts and wisdom with this community. Each month or so, I would like to highlight a WISDOM KEEPER. Ideally, this would be a live zoom, but it could be pre-recorded with me. Please reach out if you feel aligned to share your sacred service. I'm taking virtual teas with women who are inspired to facilitate for this community. https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=24477263&calendarID=9122735
