Priestess Presence

Maria Chowdhury

The experience of becoming a Temple Guide transformed and empowered me on many levels. Before becoming certified, I was “trying” to do it all myself. I was “holding” the circle and being the “expert with all the answers.”  Now, I co-create the container with the Divine and the other sisters so the circle holds all of us, myself included. Now, I confidently rest in knowing that I don’t have to have all the answers; I have to know how to create and maintain a safe and potent alchemical container and support the participants in accessing their own inner wisdom.

I’d love to say that now that I’m certified, my sacred business has started booming, and I have sold out workshops. But alas, that has not yet happened… But, and this is a big but. I no longer have a damaging story about me and my value being tied up in “my” success or failure. Again, I can comfortably rest in co-creation with the divine to magnetize the most aligned participants, and I am available to serve them. Not my previously untrue image of my ego and value.

With a deep bow, I am eternally grateful to Elayne and Priestess Presence for training me and the other sisters to share our medicine with the world.

Come, honor what’s being released & reborn
