Hello, lovely and powerful you!
聽
I wonder if you have read the email I sent a couple of days ago, where I explained about my four group offerings for the rest of the year?
聽
The Marion Method Matermind
The Marion Method Compasses
The Willing Entrepreneurs
The All of Your Feelings are Welcome Haven
聽
If you haven't yet read that email, and might be interested in one or more of these offerings, I invite you to read that first, before reading the rest of this.
聽
聽
If you want to find out more about The Marion Method itself, you can do that HERE. 聽
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CALLS ARE GOING TO START A WEEK LATER THAN I SAID.
聽
(I had two clear Messages from Life to change the timing!)

ABOUT THE MATERMIND
聽
The Marion Method Matermind
聽
Every Saturday ~ 7am Sydney time ~ 3-4 hours聽
Starting 1st August ~ ending 12th December ~ 20 sessions
聽
Invited price: $333/month for 5 payments
You are so welcome to pay more, to contribute to me and to those who have less money at this time.
聽
And I am also willing to receive any amount in between $111 to $333/month (I don't need any explanations, simply information about the amount you are wanting and willing to pay, and I'll send you your own coupon code).
聽
Zoom calls (Replays will be available on my Samcart Courses site; there is no FB group or written community space included.)
聽
If you were a part of The Wonder of Willingness Immersion, Magnetic Yeses and Repellent Noes, True Power I and II, or MotherPower, Together this year, then I don't imagine you'll need much information from me about The Matermind, because you know what happens in these spaces.
聽
If you didn't come to any of these Immersions, I also so welcome you to join The Matermind!
聽
However, I might also not fully put into words the magic we co-create together, when explaining the wonder that happens in these immersive environments.
聽
THE CENTRALITY OF CHOICE
聽
In The Marion Method, one of the most practical ways we connect with the power of our Soul is in making true choices.
聽
I'll be inviting you to embody The Marion Method work in making choices - since true choice is where our intrinsic power lives.
聽
All the way through this process, right from whether or not you choose to read this, I invite you to choose.
聽
True choice means deep self-listening to our yeses and noes, rather responding from should's and have-to's.
聽
If you do choose to join, I also invite you to listen in to whether you want to join the weekly Zoom calls live, or watch the replays.
聽
I welcome your choice, whether you want to join all of the calls, or none of the calls (and watch the replays), or a combination.
聽
If you choose to come to the calls, you might prefer to be there on the Zoom calls and not share, or share briefly, or share in writing in the chat box.
聽
I'll invite you to choose what you do if you are on a call (I love for people to join whilst walking with their dog, drawing, knitting, etc. This is about us being together and getting freer and freer from DDC conditioning about what happens in groups).
聽
You might choose to come and stay for the whole time, or come for a while, and leave before the end.
聽
One of the things I loved that emerged out of the last two immersions was people saying that they were choosing to leave a call before it had finished - we'd talked a lot about language, choice, and power - and all the ways we're taught to say things like, "I have to go now" in the DDC. I loved hearing people choosing, and stating that clearly: "I'm choosing to go now."
聽
That in itself can bring deep healing, since most of us experienced being coerced to be a part of a group, or not welcomed into a group, or coerced to stay the whole way through, even if we didn't want to be there.
聽
Many people said that these kinds of ways of being in a group were in itself reparative.
聽
If you join, I will invite you to deeply connect with what you want and don't want, and your power to choose how long you are in a call for.
聽
In these spaces, I invite you to be there in a way that is uniquely you.
聽
I welcome your no with as much love and support as your yes.
聽
THEMES
聽
The whole experience will also be an invitation to see if themes show up there for you to be tended to.
聽
Your wise Soul might help you connect with past painful experiences in groups, so that you can have reparative experiences this time.
聽
Past participants have said that through the Immersions this year, they healed old hurts, including about choice, timing, and school.
聽
I'm so willing for this to be a deeply reparative experience for you.
聽
Some people start off watching replays, and as the weeks go by, and they experience more and more reassurance and safety, they start to join in with the live calls.
聽
I'm in awe, remembering the love, compassion, wisdom, clarity, meaning, and power that I experienced and received in those groups.
聽
I loved them so much, and I am so willing for all of us who participate in The Matermind, or Compasses, or Both, to experience deep connection, belonging, meaning, clarity, compassion, power, wonder, and joy, and whatever it is we are wanting and willing for.
聽
The first month in itself is an invitation to see the ways in which we experienced disconnection, growing up in the DDC, and how that can both be revealed in groups, and be healed in groups.
聽
SOME MORE DETAILS
聽
The doors will close before the first call, to meet needs for emotional safety and continuity for everyone who joins.
聽
Every four weeks, there will be one Marion Method Map that will hold the context of what we explore together; which of these we choose for each following month will emerge from the Matermind itself.
聽
Month 1 is our starting point, and includes:
- Belonging as our birthright vs. disconnection in the DDC;
- Exploring Love-Hurts, including those that happened at birth, during infancy, in school, etc.;
- Developing deep connection with ourselves, with other humans and other beings, and with Life.
聽
Other months are likely to include:
- Love, lovingness, getting free from judgment;
- Power as our birthright vs. domination in the DDC;
- Yeses and Noes (In childhood, our yeses and noes were often dangerous. In adulthood, our noes create safety and our yeses create joy and meaning);
- Willingness work (What you really want; Fears of asking for what you really want; How needs and desires, welcomed, lead to interests and preferences, and when welcomed, those lead to clarity and connection with our Callings.);
- True Power;
- From the DDC language of judgment and coercion to a language of Love and True Power.

Starting 2nd August ~ ending 13th December ~ 20 sessions
聽
Invited price: $222/month for 5 payments
You are so welcome to pay more
And I am also willing to receive any amount in between $68 to $222/month

聽
聽
The Marion Method consists of both maps and practices. The practices are part of deeply embodying this work.
聽
If you want to find out more about the practices, you can do that
HERE:
聽
The Marion Method Compasses offer is an opportunity to learn the main practices, and to deeply understand them, experiment with them, and embody them.
聽
Each week we will go into one of the Marion Method practices or processes together.
聽
I will invite you to explore them in your own life between sessions.
聽
Here's some of what we are likely to focus on, and the practices will match what happens in The Matermind:
聽
Month 1:
- The Inner Loving Mother Practice
- The Inner Loving Presence Process
- Reparative Phrases
Other months will include:
- The Inner Loving Father Practice
- The Neo No
- The Willingness Practice
- The Willingness for All Practice
- The Inner Loving Sibling
- Inner Best Friend
- Getting free from guilt and self-coercion
- Making true choices, and a language of choice
- Finding and choosing language that helps you experience being loving towards yourself, and others, and being powerful in yourself, and with others.
聽
ABOUT BEING A PART OF BOTH
聽
The maps and the practices will relate to each other, so that your presence, or watching, will contribute to your experience of the other.
聽
Each four-week block of Compasses mirrors the four-week rhythm of the Matermind ~ so if you are in both, the practices and the sharing deepen each other naturally.
聽
PRICING IF YOU WANT TO DO BOTH
聽
Invited price: $500/month for 5 payments
You are so welcome to pay more.
And I am also willing to receive any amount in between $144 to $500/month.
聽

聽
I INVITE YOU TO CONTEMPLATE DEEPLY ABOUT THE PAYMENT YOU CHOOSE
聽
I deeply care that the people who join do so because they have a full-body yes, or close to that - you might really want to join, and still have some younger parts who feel scared - and you are so welcome to join and bring those younger parts with you!
聽
With the sliding scale, what I DON'T want is for people to join who actually don't have much of a yes at all to joining, and that yes is reflected in not willing to pay what they would actually be comfortable and willing to pay if they had a full-body yes (or close to it).
聽
Have you ever experienced that?
聽
I've explored the relationship between willingness and money over many years.
聽
I know that for myself, the extent of my willingness and the amount I'm willing to pay can be deeply interconnected.
聽
Years ago, I remember at times not really being willing to do an offering, but signing up during a sale or when it was low price, and then not doing it.
聽
That's because I actually wasn't willing to do it all along.
聽
I AM really willing for the people who join the Matermind, or Compasses, or both, to have a big YES for being a part of it, whether that's joining all the calls live, watching all of the calls, or somewhere in between.
聽
I am also willing for everyone who has a true yes to joining to also choose a price that they have a big yes for, which values both themselves and their life and me and my work, and takes into account the effects of giving me that money, for both of us.
聽
RELEVANT INFORMATION ABOUT ME AND MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY
聽
I'd love to share a few things about me and money, for information for you.
聽
I really do NOT want people to coerce themselves to pay for any of my offers.
聽
It's also really important to me that people DO NOT pay an amount of money to me that creates considerable stress in their lives.
聽
When I was a teenager, my mum got into considerable credit card debt. The more debt she got into, the more money the credit card company lent her. I remember how stressed she was.
聽
For me, and for that teenage me, it's really important to me that people do not pay for any of my offers if doing so would mean that they feel stressed in relation to money.
聽
That's one of the reasons I chose to create the sliding scale and coupon process - so that people who really DO want to join, and who are willing, but who wouldn't join if it were the amount that I would most love to receive, or who might override their financial noes and be stressed, are free to join, AND feel relaxed.
聽
INFORMATION ABOUT ME AND MY FINANCIAL POSITION
聽
After you read this part, it's really important to me that you DON'T hit yourself with guilt sticks, or pay an amount that isn't a yes for you.
聽
And, I would love to share my own financial position.
聽
For many years, I have had a lot of money and a lot of savings. I've worked a lot over the past 10 years to build that up. Before that, I had very little of either money or savings.
聽
Last year, I did major renovations to my home, to rebuild both a collapsing deck and a collapsing bathroom, and spent all of my savings.
聽
At the same time, I was starting to see that Life was inviting me to work in completely different ways to what I had been.
聽
For the first half of this year year, as I was experimenting with totally new ways of offering my work, I received the same amount as I received in the first half of 2016, 10 years ago.
聽
I am also the main income provider in my extended family.
聽
I share this with you so that you have that information.
聽
Not so that you give me an amount because you're telling yourself that you should.
聽
Rather, I share it so that you take the information into account as part of all the information you are collating as you make your decision, particularly if you do have an abundance of money and a big yes to joining.
聽
I love the joy of contributing and enjoy giving a bit of extra money to every stall holder at our local farmers market on a Friday, even if it's just a dollar or two.
聽
This experiment with sliding scales and coupons will also guide what I do next year in relation to payments for my offers.
聽
MY OWN JOURNEY WITH CHOOSING THE PRICES, THE SLIDING SCALE, AND THE COUPONS
聽
I played a lot with the different prices.
聽
I started off with $111 a month for The Matermind as a fixed fee, and then I felt called to keep exploring as I knew that wasn't a full-body-yes for me.
聽
I could feel, in a way that I haven't for many years with money, that there were younger parts of me emerging at another turn of the spiral, to be heard and loved:
聽
Five and six-year old me were scared, imagining asking for what I really wanted, thinking that no one would join if I did.
聽
Teenage me was concerned, imagining mothers paying money and being stressed, like my mother was when I was a teenager.
聽
During my own inner work, and with my mentor, I raised the amount I would love to receive to $222.
聽
By this time, I'd explored ways of stating what I really wanted, whilst also finding ways for those of you who have a big yes, but for whom that amount would create considerable stress - in the form of both a sliding scale and a coupon option.
聽
I know that many "Masterminds" ask for a lot more money, and whilst I love receiving money (and I'm so willing to receive more), I didn't want the amount to exclude people who have a big YES for the work, and who just wouldn't join if it were more money.
聽
I wondered how I could also include the me who also thinks that these group immersions have been so beautiful and powerful, and that these new ones are likely to be too, and would also love to receive more money.
聽
Then I came up with the idea that the sliding scale could be upwards, as well as downwards.
聽
I kept listening in deeply to myself, and when my yeses and noes were coming from my Soul, and where they were coming from younger parts.
聽
I could feel that $222 was still from a younger part.
聽
When I changed it to $333, I experienced that clear sigh of a yes, the actual out-breath, my shoulders dropping, the true YES!
聽
And I'm so loving that number right now, because it's 33 years this year that I've been working 1-1 with people, first as a psychotherapist, then for a few years in HypnoBirthing, Private Subconscious-mind Healing, and Calm Birth, then with Aware Parenting, and for the past 10 years, also in The Marion Method.
聽
It's also the fee I ask for online 1-1 sessions - AUD$333 for 55 minutes.
聽
So, I love that sense of cohesion - that I would love to receive the same amount for four group sessions of 3-4 hours as one 1-1 session.
聽
AND then I deeply listened in to the lowest amount I am willing to receive.
聽
So, I know what I love to receive AND I am willing to receive less, in the amounts that I stated, AND I'm also willing to receive more.
聽
Then, I created the price of Compasses to be the same kind of rate, given that I imagine it will generally be shorter.
聽
I have found this to be a powerful process for me.
聽
