MAUREEN INTENTIONAL BRANDING SESSION
AUM RAAIN EMBODIMENT // “I used to teach yoga, and paused in order to study more deeply. I loved it, but something about the way I was “teaching” didn’t feel aligned. Patanjali’s yoga sutras say that when yoga is practiced, “the seer abides in their own form.” So in truth, teaching yoga is not very possible. You can only hold the space for someone to return to their body. I didn’t realize it at the time of creating this space, but that’s what I am doing with Aum Raain Embodiment.
Aum Raain was truthfully born out of a deep love for my body, which birthed out of my love and appreciation for my womb, my cycle, and all the lessons in slowness it has offered me. It’s so juicy, so tender, and I think every person with a womb deserves to tap into that power. I guide people with wombs back into the temple of their bodies by reminding them of the magic and lessons taught by our menstrual cycles, which are deeply interwoven with the movement of the moon, the seasons of the earth, and just about every natural cycle of birth-life-death-transformation.”
“As womb keepers, we have a very intimate relationship with this cycle, but we have been asked by the patriarchal capitalist culture to live outside of that. This culture favors the productive portion of the cycle, the constant output. But that as a norm or baseline is not the reality of nature. Our bodies try to tell us this through many disorders of the pelvic region. Our bodies are trying to tell us to slow down, that there is deep magic and medicine in the slow, restful, inward, and intuitive portion of the cycle.
So in a sense, this work is also activism and resistance : resistance to the industrialized complexes we have been told to operate under. There is so much, so much, power in our own bodies, in our pelvic bowls, in the natural cycle of the universal birth-life-death cycle. This is real power, not the kind that our world leaders pretend to have, but an ancient and earth-rooted power.
In my work, I guide my clients into remembering this power for themselves through education, reflection, practice, and space holding. I offer them insights and tools to listening to their bodies and, as a result, to the very sacred and natural cycles of nature. I use the lens of the menstrual cycle because of the power and medicine that that holds. By reclaiming our powers, we are heeding the call of the earth, responding to our needs. When honoring all aspects and needs of our bodies, which move in a cyclical fashion, we are abiding in our own forms.”
OFFERINGS “The primary way I work with people is through my 1:1 embodiment coaching program called Actualized Truth:: Radical Self Love + Cyclical Wisdom. For 3 months/moon cycles, we meet once a week via Zoom to learn about all things cyclical, starting in the body with the menstrual cycle. My clients feel a deep sense of rootedness after uncovering this wisdom and its a true joy for me to witness their return to Truth. www.aumraain.com/book-a-call
I also just launched my first group offering, Sacred Truth Embodiment Group, kicking off on Tuesday April 14th. The energetics and education of this group is the same as the 1:1 coaching, but now we get to sit in community with other womb keepers and share stories and experiences.” www.aumraain.com/sacred-truth
“I also offer matriarchal tarot and astrology readings to hold space for folx to root into the truth of the planetary cycles and the archetypes/stories that they teach us. Patriarchal capitalist culture honors only a very narrow view of these archetypes, and we get to reclaim that in these sessions. www.aumraain.com/turning-wheel-readings
We’ve got a few other offerings, healing sessions, workshops, and retreats on our website, as well as a Patreon page (www.patreon.com/aumraain) where content such as meditations, herbal recipes, live tarot readings, and plant medicine gifts are shared. So many ways to engage with this work! It is a pleasure for me to share this, deeply from my womb.”
GRADITIDE FOR OLIVIA
“My session with Olivia was such a joy and deep medicine. We danced together with the magic of a light-capturing-device between us, and I honestly felt like I understood my business, my soul-driven work, so much deeper in those moments. She began the session by reminding me that we are working from the inside out, rather than the outside in. That is to say, we were letting the session pour out of me as opposed to thinking about how the images might turn out or if they’ll be “on brand.” That foundation allowed for me to lay down any worry or stress and allow myself to be seen.
Olivia has a true gift for holding the space for people to be seen in their fullness. I’ve always been comfortable in front of a camera, but this was the first time that my comfort went deep: I belonged with that space, that camera, and with Olivia for the moments that weaved together our session. I gained insights into what my business and offerings were really about while feeling held in my power and beauty. I am so grateful to Olivia for holding this space.” -Aum Raain
