From Pain Body to Wisdom Body

The Portal is Open

Fundamentally, the collective feminine pain body is the deep, energetic, and ancestral wound all women carry, the wound of being born a woman into a wounded patriarchal social structure that is not conducive to life or the needs and health of the feminine. Being born a woman inherently bonds you with the Earth, her cycles, and your animal body as part of the natural world, and our longing for this truth and bond, which has been and is so often severed, reverberates through our lived experience whether we are aware of it or not. Women are the channels through which all life is physically and energetically birthed; women collectively dream existence into being alongside the living Goddess that is our Mother Earth. We are the containers of life. We are deeply interconnected with the wellbeing of our Mother Earth and, as such, suffer on an energetic and fundamental level under the influence of our current wounded patriarchal structure that has created a consensus reality that runs contrary to nature and the sustaining of life. This wound runs through our ancestral lines and connects us to those who came before us and those who will come after us - it also provides the key access point through which to reclaim and reawaken the Collective Feminine Wisdom Body.

The Pain Body to Wisdom Body journey was born out of my search to understand the manifestation of the collective feminine pain body within my own life as well as the years of work I have done with other women to explore and better understand the complex structure of this collective wound and how we are able to clear its harm and access the medicine held within our Feminine Wisdom Body.

What To Expect from this journey

This is a 9-week/9-module journey that can be undertaken as a self-guided programme or as a guided journey.

Feel free to book a Connection Call if you have any questions.

The journey moves through the following modules:

Understanding the Collective Feminine Pain Body

Here, we explore the core structure of the collective feminine pain body and seek to better understand its effects and impact on our lives.

The Mother Wound & Mother Wound Ritual

Here, we delve into the mother wound to better understand how it manifests within us from the energetic, spiritual, psychological, and physical levels.

We then work with a ritual to assist in clearing this wound.

The Sister Wound & Sister Wound Ritual

Here, we explore the sister wound to better understand how it manifests within us from the energetic, spiritual, psychological, and physical levels.

We then work with a ritual to assist in clearing this wound.

The Witch Wound & Witch Wound Ritual

We move through the same process of uncovering and understanding the aspects and effects of the witch wound from the energetic through to the physical and then work with a ritual practice to assist in clearing this wound.

Reawakening the Collective Feminine Wisdom Body

In this module, we dive into greater understanding as we explore the Collective Feminine Wisdom Body and the medicine this sacred feminine structure holds for us as women.

Mother Medicine & Mother Medicine Ritual

The first path of reawakening our access to the feminine wisdom body is the reclamation of our Mother Medicine — in this module, we explore this concept and work with the Mother Medicine Ritual to activate this medicine within your field.

Sister Sanctuary & Sister Sanctuary Ritual

We then move into the warm embrace of Sister Sanctuary, witnessing the integration of the sister wound and the magic that can be woven from this space as we work with the Sister Sanctuary Ritual practice.

Witch Wisdom & Witch Wisdom Ritual

Lastly we graduate to reclaiming our Witch Wisdom and remembering and invoking the wisdom we carry within ourselves and our lineages and work with a land altar as ritual practice.

Reclaiming our Rites & Wisdom Paths & The Rite of the Womb

We close the journey in reclaiming our rites and wisdom paths and receiving the rite of the womb which is then nurtured by you to assist in integrating this journey and awakening your connection to the collective feminine wisdom body over the next 13 lunar cycles.

With each module, we explore the expression and deepen our understanding of the wound or medicine present in that aspect of the feminine pain or wisdom body, we learn practices and rituals to assist in clearing the wounds and reactivating the medicine of the collective feminine wisdom body. Each module on the guided option includes a remote or in-person private session to assist in working to clear and understand the expression of the wound in your field and to deepen your access and understanding of the wisdom and medicine you carry within your unique expression and access to the wisdom body

I had known about this course while it was still taking shape, and when the doors opened, I jumped in. Maybe jumping into this course was less graceful than it was a catharsis that took who I was and shook it until everything that I held onto but that was not true fell away.

Looking into the rooms that held my wounds was not a gentle process. Being taken into the museum of all the broken parts of your being, seeing the carefully curated coping mechanisms held together by their limiting beliefs, is not an exhibit for the faint of heart. I had to lovingly witness pieces of myself, my lineage, and the world that I would much rather have pretended did not exist.

This is the comfort trap of the pain body. Making us hit snooze on what we need to face and giving us a familiar blanket of ignorance and insistence that because this is how it has always been, it must be the best way to exist, but it is not.

Each week asked me to look at aspects that were not always great, but which were always valuable. Holding everything up to scrutiny and seeing how the wounds have dictated my life, stolen my sovereignty and made me believe that the limiting boxes were there for my own safety, changed the way I looked at everything.

Then the medicine arrived. And in some ways, that was ever harder to swallow because it meant I needed to take my power back. No more lies, no more barriers, no more playing small. If I wanted the gifts, I needed to take out my dragon claws and claim them. I had to step into my maiden with joy (Yikes), claim the healed mother as my mother, as well as how I other, sit with the crone and bask in her I don’t give a fuck majesty and be willing to move between them as they weaved me back to life. I had to forgive the pain my witch wound carried, and dare to be seen, without fear, while finding and embracing sisterhood that is not based on aggression and competition.

Was this easy? No.

Was it worth it? My most vigorous full-body scream to the sky YES!

We need to do this work for the women we once were, the women we are learning to be, and the girls to look up to us as our future. We need to heal so that we can hold space for other women who do not know the safety of sisterhood or the freedom of letting the witch show. We need this because the world we live in is absurd, and nothing will change until we do.

This is our call to arms. Not to start a war like the world wants us to, but to reclaim the pieces of ourselves where our medicine lives, because that is where our magic hides.

I can highly recommend the Pain Body to Wisdom Body Journey with Isa Kara. I had just had a baby when I started the work, and wasn’t sure that I would be able to dedicate myself fully to doing the work but as always when working with Isa I was amazed at the immense holding her work embodies, as-well as the depth that one is able to tap into the collective with her, from which to connect into and draw out a new capacity of understanding one’s own being and resonance.

Within this journey, Isa has created a powerful portal to moving beyond fear and victim-based states, to hold a new capacity for grounding firmly in Love and sovereignty. I never felt the work was too much to take on; Isa’s support on this path is profound.
