The Container We Hold Together

Ground Rules & Disclaimer

These agreements are what make this space possible. They protect not only each individual within it, but the integrity of the container itself.

By joining The Weaving, you are entering a shared field of trust. These are not rules for the sake of control, they are the conditions that allow intimacy, honesty, and depth to emerge.

Ground Rules

  1. Confidentiality
    The Weaving will not share personal member information outside of the Member Network.
  2. Consent-Based Connection
    Within the network, members may choose to share their name and contact information with one another by mutual consent. Any deeper exchange of personal information is always at the discretion of those involved.
  3. Relational Presence
    Council members are asked to participate in the spirit of guests at a small dinner party: present, considerate, not dominating, and genuinely interested in others.
  4. Care of the Container
    The Weaving reserves the right to remove members whose participation is not in alignment with the safety, integrity, and relational values of the space. If this occurs, a refund for the current billing period will be provided.
  5. Referrals & Discernment
    We welcome referrals into the community. Council members are encouraged to invite individuals who feel aligned with the spirit and values of this space.
  6. Shared Content
    Some community calls may be recorded for members who are unable to attend live. These recordings, and any other paywalled or private content, are not to be shared outside of the network.

How We Hold Each Other

These agreements come from a recognition that intimacy requires safety, and safety requires agreements. When we enter this circle, we're entering a space where people share real things, their dissolving, their edges, their grief, their gifts. The container is only as strong as our collective commitment to holding it carefully.

When tensions or misunderstandings do arise, members are encouraged to meet them with honesty, respect, and a willingness toward repair. This is a relational space, and learning how to stay in connection is part of the practice.

Books and essays that shaped The Weaving.

From Linnea Butler - How Healing Happens
→
Community as Medicine: Healing the Loneliness Epidemic
Why we need each other to heal

This essay articulates the core premise of The Weaving: that community itself is medicine, and our loneliness epidemic requires collective healing, not individual optimization.

→
We Cannot Hold This Alone
On the kind of holding only community can offer

There are thresholds in a human life that no amount of insight, discipline, or private practice can carry us through on their own. This piece speaks to the deep truth at the heart of The Weaving: some forms of healing ask for shared presence, shared witness, and a circle strong enough to hold what one nervous system cannot.

→
Wisdom of the Shambhala Warrior: Surviving Dark Times Through Wisdom and Insight
Breakdown as training for collective healing

On Joanna Macy's prophecy and how shadow work prepares us for what's coming. Speaks directly to the Shambhala Warriors in Training archetype.

From Julie Schmidt - Walking the Liminal
→
The Inversion Wound: Remembering Community in an Age of Isolation
From collective trauma and separation to relational healing and belonging

Julie's recent essay that articulates the core wound The Weaving addresses: the polarization of wholeness, the suppression of the feminine, and how we heal through community.

→
The Restorative Power of Possibility
From problem-fixation to spacious becoming

Julie explores how possibility isn't denial or bypass but a living field where multiple futures can breathe - one that requires nervous system regulation, community declaration, and the courage to stay with uncertainty.

→
Weaving the Opposites Back Together: Where the Outlawed Parts Return
From forced polarization to the fertile tension of the liminal

Julie illuminates how the threshold space between opposites - the Mandorla - isn't weakness but the sacred geometry of becoming, where contradictions breathe together and wholeness exists as spectrum.

Recommended Books
  • Community: The Structure of Belonging
    Peter Block

    The foundational text for how we think about community. Block shows that transformation happens through small, consistent groups and that leadership is about listening, not leading.

  • Soulcraft: Crossing into the Mysteries of Nature and Psyche
    Bill Plotkin

    A guide to descending to soul through nature and psyche. Plotkin maps the journey from ego to soul, offering practices for those being initiated. This is the heroine's journey - descent, not ascent.

  • When Things Fall Apart
    Pema Chodrön

    Buddhist wisdom for being with dissolution without trying to fix it. Chödrön teaches us to lean into groundlessness, to befriend uncertainty, to find the tender heart in the broken-open places.

  • After the Ecstasy, the Laundry
    Jack Kornfield

    What happens after awakening? Kornfield brings spiritual practice down to earth, into relationship, work, family, and the messy human experience.

  • The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World
    Robin Wall Kimmerer

    A meditation on gift economy, gratitude, and sacred reciprocity in nature. Essential for understanding how The Weaving moves beyond transactional models.

  • Extraordinary Knowing
    Elizabeth Lloyd Mayer

    A psychoanalyst's journey into the realm of intuition, telepathy, and knowing beyond the rational mind. Rigorously researched yet open to mystery. Perfect for polarity walkers.

  • Coming Back to Life
    Joanna Macy & Molly Brown

    Macy's framework for moving through grief, despair, and disconnection into collective action. Practices for the Shambhala Warriors.

  • Owning Your Own Shadow
    Robert Johnson

    A brief, accessible introduction to Jungian shadow work. Johnson shows how we become whole not by rejecting darkness but by integrating it.

  • Braiding Sweetgrass
    Robin Wall Kimmerer

    Blends scientific botany with Indigenous wisdom. Explores the reciprocal relationship between humanity and the natural world.

  • The Chalice and the Blade
    Riane Eisler

    An exploration of history and possible futures from a distinctly feminine perspective, exploring our earliest history and the partnership model.

  • Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You
    Dorothy Bryant

    A slim, mystical novel about a community that dreams together. Fiction that reads like prophecy. It captures what we're attempting.

  • The Turning Point
    Fritjof Capra

    Written in 1982 but prophetic. Capra articulates the shift from mechanistic to systems thinking, from domination to partnership, from parts to wholes.
