Mother’s Day Musings for You, From Hestia


We at Hestia celebrate women every single day.  We celebrate women of all types, grateful for the kaleidoscope we create and the impact we have on the world around us.  

Mother’s Day is an opportunity for us to express our reverence to women who mother -- whether they mother children, movements, or the Earth.  We salute all of you.

You.  And you.  And you.  Happy Mother’s Day to you.

Hestia has formed an allegiance with another organization devoted to our kaleidoscope, called Emerging Women, that aims to change the world through feminine leadership.  Emerging Women produces live events for women that are truly life-changing, and will be hosting an evening in Seattle on Thursday, June 5.  Please save the date for this; we’ll be back with details soon.

Meantime, Chantal Pierrat, the founder of the organization, has written a Mother’s Day blog post we want to share with you today.  It’s a compilation of women who “rock the world” in their expression of mothering.  While there are plenty of biological and adoptive moms in the mix, we appreciate Chantal’s inclusion of women who “channel the mother archetype in order to uplift those in need”.

"Mothers not only physically create us, they shape our ideas of the potential and possibilities available to us as we grow into our true selves. From creator to protector, healer to warrior, different representations of motherhood in our lives can serve to empower all of us during periods of emergence.”

We’d love to hear your thoughts and intentions this Mother’s Day.  What qualities of motherhood do you want to bring forward in your own life right now?  Please add your comments below.

With great appreciation for the mothering you do,

The Team at Hestia Retreat
