Women’s Group Facilitator Training
A training for women who want to embody spiritual awakening, for women who want to explore Feminine Leadership and learn the art of leading a women’s group. Or maybe you simply long to deeply rejuvenate in a circle of inspiring women–welcome!
In this intensive training, you will learn the art of Feminine Leadership, and how to facilitate an ongoing Women’s Temple group. You will gain insights in the background theory of group dynamics as well as have the opportunity to practice feminine leadership and to receive constructive feedback.
The principles of feminine leadership can be applied to all areas of life; so even if you are not sure if you want to lead a group, this training will benefit you. You will also have an in-depth experience of the Awakening Women approach and of the benefits of being part of a Women’s Temple group.
Topics we will cover include:
- How to set and communicate the right intention for the group
- How to create a safe and deep framework for the group
- The difference between a Temple group and ordinary “support groups”
- How to honor the flow of the group as well as keeping the focus and depth
- The being/doing dynamic of feminine leadership
- Pitfalls of women’s groups
- In depth study and background theory of the Temple group practices
- and much, much more…
The learning process is a carefully balanced mix of theory and experiential transformation. Many of the practices are dynamic and interactive (e.g dance, dyads, respectful touch), but we will also spend time in silence and inner contemplation.
You will leave the training with a plan for creating your own group, or if you already are part of one, you will bring back ideas of how you can deepen your practice together. It is even wonderful to come as a group, as the training will give you a common ground of understanding for what you will create together.
The training is facilitated by Chameli Ardagh, founder of Awakening Women, and some sessions will be lead by members of the Awakening Women Team.

Facilitator Training Participant’s Feedback:
It was like jumping into a big ocean of love, where women see each other, support each other, and expand in a most beautiful way. I feel so privileged and grateful to be a part of this work.

It was such a beautiful, balanced experience between practicing and experiencing the feminine work and to take in information on the intellectual level. My wakeup call during the retreat was to understand my deep need to create a feminine basecamp in my daily life, and now I have the tools to manifest it. Thank you from the deepest of my heart!

It feels right for me to practice spirituality this way! Together, touching and supporting each other with clear guidelines as a foundation. Feelings being fully invited and accepted without analyzing them.

I felt very present and every moment in the training was truly a gift. Chameli has a fantastic spirit that I love! I’m very inspired and can see the easiness in leading a women’s group. I feel very secure and supported and am looking forward to using the skilled learned in my life.

I experienced a very deep intimacy in the group. Chameli gave us so much of her knowledge and her whole person. She really got me to understand the depth of the women’s work, in part through her fantastic story telling. Chameli and the assistants got into the work like everybody else, side by side with the sisters. They all gave so much to each of us!

These days were absolutely beautiful. The Temple space we created was deeply nourishing and supportive, and I received so much inspiration for my own leadership practice in my Temple group. The most valuable gift was how this retreat helped me reconnect with my deeper purpose and supported me to surrender to that greater cause.

Magic days filled with incredibly deep wisdom on all levels! The love, knowledge, tools, creativity, structure and different ways of opening up and remembering the feminine wisdom gave me the opportunity to go deeper but also to feel that it is time for me to start a temple group immediately!
Annika Selmewall, Sweden
I joined the training for two reasons: To give myself energy and to fill up my oxygen container with female devotion. To get teachings and new insights on female leadership.
After a wonderful and blessed retreat in Corfu, I had high expectations. I can only say Yes! Yes! Yes! I am filled up with energy; it feels like I can breathe again! It feels like I can feel my body; I feel alive. Thank you. I received new insights of leadership and a lot of tools that I feel will be useful to be practicing back at home. Thank you for reminding me of my deeper purpose! This will help me not to fall so easily into stress. I love you, Chameli, and your work and devotion. You make it easy and joyful to be a woman!
