The Longhouse at
The Evergreen State College

Honoring the Divine Feminine
Timely Medicine for a Hypermasculine Culture


  • Engage the nourishing authority of the feminine
  • Reduce the masculine/feminine split within
  • Move from manipulation into the fertile field of creativity

As we are challenged to admit the limitations and consequences of a mind-over-matter, predict-and-control orientation towards life, the Divine Feminine capacities of patience, holding, and deeply attuned sensing, can offer a nourishing, generative counterpoint.

In this workshop we will use creative processes to help us relax, listen to, and welcome the Divine Feminine within ourselves. We will also use them to explore new ways of being. In a safe,
 playful environment, t
his interplay between relaxation and exploration creates a spiral of unfolding, allowing what no longer serves to fall away.

Skills that you learned in kindergarten will be employed. No previous experience, or identity as an "artist," is necessary.

''Margit Bantowsky, MA
Interning Teacher


Margit began exploring Trillium Awakening (formerly Waking Down) in 2011. Her spiritual journey evolved out of graduate work in Imaginal Psychology, and as juicy as that was, she still felt there was something missing. Landing in conscious embodiment in 2012 finally gave Margit the sense of "coming home" she longed for.

As a sensitive, creative person who struggled with debilitating self-hatred, Margit is passionate about supporting people to find peace in themselves, and ultimately delight in and express their unique gifts and brilliance. She has found that embodied awakening, especially in community, really helps this process.

Margit has a private practice of Transformative Coaching, and has taught many workshops and courses on creativity, leadership, and personal growth.  Along with a deep environmental sensitivity (she was an environmental engineer for ~ 20 years) Margit is passionate about what she calls the social dimensions of awakening and mutuality - deeply encountering the suffering of others and allowing oneself to be transformed by it.

Joanne Lee
Interning Teacher


A lifetime of seeking and decades of personal work left Joanne seriously mired in the rot when she discovered this spiritual path. Her exploration of Trillium dharma (then known as Waking Down in Mutuality) quickly culminated in her embodied awakening as love in 2013. With unbounded gratitude for the gifts received, she enthusiastically began to contribute to the building of a local Trillium community in Olympia, as well as to move into mentoring others on this path. Becoming a teacher in the fall of 2016 was a natural next step.

Joanne has had a private practice as a business and personal coach since 1998. She has offered many workshops over the years in areas of personal and organizational growth. She is a high creative (artist, dancer, writer) and recently published a how-to manual called CREATE! Accessing Depth Creativity, Divine Guidance and Universal Wisdom at Will. She teaches the CREATE! process and runs groups. 

Some of the activities that keep her healthy and happy include yoga, dance, gardening, cooking, hiking, camping, kayaking, and paddle boarding.
