October Archetype of the Month: The Sage
Cultivating Wisdom, Truth, Discernment, and Deeper Understanding

As we move into October, we enter the reflective and grounding space of The Sage archetype: the part of us that seeks truth, understanding, wisdom, and a deeper perspective on life.

The Sage is not simply someone who knows a lot or has accumulated years of experience. The Sage is the energy within us that asks meaningful questions, listens deeply, looks beneath the surface, and remains open to learning.

Helen here from Soma Ranch, where there is always something moving, growing, changing, or being renovated!

We’re welcoming October with a brand-new archetype for our Soma journey: The Sage.

The Sage invites us to get out of our heads and drop into our bodies. We spend so much of our lives being “top heavy,” thinking, analyzing, figuring things out and trying to find the answers. What if some of the wisdom we’re looking for is already waiting for us in our bodies?

17 Years of Soma Ranch And Still Evolving
What a beautiful way to celebrate 17 years of Soma Ranch!
To everyone who joined us online and in person for our birthday celebration thank you! Your presence, your energy, your laughter, your movement, and your love made this milestone especially meaningful to Joe and Helen.

And as our birthday gift to you, enjoy the replay of our birthday class (BELOW), a little piece of the celebration you can enjoy, share with a friend, as a reminder of this wonderful Soma journey.
We have such deep appreciation for everyone who has been part of this journey with us. Seventeen years holds a lot of stories, friendships, movement, laughter, learning, and love. We are incredibly grateful for every person who has helped make Soma what it is today.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU FOR OUR MONTHLY CUPPA
We were especially touched by all the fabulous ladies who stayed on for our monthly cuppa and birthday gathering. One thing that continues to move us is seeing how many people are willing to drive significant distances to attend public classes at Soma Ranch. Your commitment to Soma, to movement, and to being together means more than you may realize.
And together, we raised $88 toward our annual St. Jude fundraiser!

Thank you for your generosity and for making our monthly cuppa about more than tea—it becomes a beautiful opportunity to connect, catch up, laugh, share, and give.

THE EVOLVING CREATOR
This Saturday, Helen is teaching both morning classes, continuing our exploration of this month's archetype: The Creator.

THE EVOLVING CREATOR
Rather than simply asking:
“What can I create?”
We're asking “What am I becoming” and “What is ready to evolve through me?”

8:45 AM | SOMA 5 STAGES
We'll explore Embryonic, Creeping, Crawling, Crouching, and Walking as a beautiful metaphor for growth and evolution. With somatic movement, EFT tapping, and prayer, we'll explore letting go of what no longer serves us, trusting the process of becoming, and making room for what's emerging.
Honor who we've been.
Welcome who we're becoming.
Discover what is ready to evolve through us.

10:00 AM | SOMA FAITH MOVEMENT
Then… let's have some fun! 🎶
Inspired by longtime Soma participant Megan Freemantle, Helen has created an Evolution Playlist, reaching back through 33 years of teaching somatic movement to pull out some of her all-time favorite songs.

We'll dance, play, remember, and discover what these beloved songs can inspire in us now.

Evolution doesn't mean leaving our history behind.
We take what has moved us, build upon it, and allow it to become something new.

Come move with us this morning.
Come celebrate where we've been.
Come explore where we're going.
Come discover what is ready to evolve through you.

BE. BEAUTIFUL EVOLUTION.
