Discover delicious meditations for a creative, body-attuned way to release stuck energies, open new currents of vitality and joy, and honor your radiant body.
Access greater sovereignty, freedom, and wellbeing with practices unique to your needs, that can be done ‘off the cushion’ — supportive of your inner resilience and body’s wisdom.
Is your meditation practice bringing you the depth, aliveness, and enjoyment you want (and need)?
Perhaps the old seated ritual is feeling flat and more like a “should” than something you truly want to do?
You’re not alone and it’s not because you’re lazy, distracted, or bored.
It’s most likely because your meditation practice wasn’t actually DESIGNED for you.
That’s right, meditation as a practice has almost entirely been designed by male monastics in the last few thousand years and much of what we’ve inherited is more focused, attuned, and oriented to MALE needs than FEMALE needs.
The surprising truth is your meditation practice isn’t tailored to you as a modern woman.
Which means you’re not getting nearly what you could out of it.
Ultimately, meditation for women is about being intimate with yourself, and with nature, and all of life…
It’s not about transcending and witnessing so much as falling in love with reality as it is and allowing yourself to be enveloped by the sweetness of life.
It’s about a grateful heart AND a supple body, a wise mind AND a delicious enjoyment of the senses.
It’s a wide open embrace of all of who you are — your tender heart, your radiant wisdom, and your wild free spirit and passion.
It’s about incarnating, not getting out of the world.
For a woman, meditation is your chance to remember and commune with the depths of your essence and to be nourished and inspired by the luminous, life-giving energies of creation.
Instead, we’re too often caught up in traditional models of meditation, focused on observing and detachment, and established by male monks long ago, who, of course, had no clue about the needs and strengths of women.
How could they? It’s up to us to find what works for us now.
And, what women’s spiritual empowerment teacher, author, and speaker Camille Maurine has discovered — and taught women for decades — is that the deepest benefits from meditation for women come from an approach that honors the female body and way of being… that supports you to thrive within yourself, and in your relationships, work, and creativity.
That’s because there are subtle yet important ways in which women’s body, mind, and soul are different than that of males. In traditional Hindu teachings, Shakti (the feminine principle) is all about movement, flow, and embodiment.
Women tend to not thrive in as full-bodied a way with a focus ONLY on stillness or observation because it doesn’t allow us to embody our distinctly feminine qualities.
That’s why subtle, pleasurable movements that connect us with a deeper energetic current leads to greater enjoyment of our bodies and little rivers of ecstasy that brighten and enliven our day.
According to Camille, a truly feminine practice of meditation becomes the single most important part of our day because it brings us home to who we more naturally are.
A loving, life-affirming meditation practice, tailored to the ways in which a woman’s body and mind relaxes, remembers, and evolves, can make all the difference in the quality of your life.
When you feel fulfilled from the inside, you can navigate life’s challenges with more ease and joy.
Since most of your outer life is patterned by full schedules and lengthy to-do lists, creating a deeply nourishing practice – a real sanctuary of meditation allows you to relax and release the places of tension, rigidity, and stress.
Experiencing yourself in an unpatterned, organic flow gives you access to feelings of freedom, love, and power.
As a seeker, you know that these feelings begin in your body and heart. And Camille has discovered that embodied movement meditation practices offer some of the best ways for liberating them.
Her movement meditations — developed from decades as a dancer and spiritual teacher — give us a tangible, powerful way to meet the aching places inside and allow them to melt and release into flow, allowing for a deep feeling of wellbeing.
Movement is how the intelligence of the body sustains our health and vitality.
There’s a tender, sensuous beauty that begins to emanate when you truly love your body. A gracefulness. A physical poetry.
When you’re at home in your body, you relax the tension patterns that keep you from your truest essence, and reconnect with the wonder and awe which is the deeper truth of your existence.
Camille melds the embodiment of dancing with the enlightened consciousness of meditation to create a wholly new kind of meditative practice…
… one that allows your practice time to become a “dance with life,” a full-body experience through which you can release stuck energies and find your way home to your true essence…
It feels good… liberating, exhilarating, and heart opening.
In Liberating Practices to Enliven Your Full, Wild, Radiant Self, Camille will teach you how you can touch into a deeper, feminine intelligence by embodying the glorious movement, energy, and power you have within you.
Over the 7 life-transformative weeks with Camille, you’ll discover:
A loving way to meditate that honors your individuality and natural way of being Ways to set yourself free from perfectionist ideals and find new freedom and joy How to let go of old limiting patterns A movement meditation for embracing the fullness of who you are — all aspects of your being Ways to release stress, fear, anxiety, and other challenges you experience by melting tension with movement meditation and opening to harmonious inner flow How to build on what you love, and discover how natural, spontaneous moments of deep joy and pleasure, of awe and wonder, appreciating beauty and the miracle of life are clues to your innate pathways into meditation How to cultivate flow in every level of your being Practice soft posture awareness and the places in your body that want to relax and let go How to appreciate subtle movement and to melt into flow and balance Ways to tend to your tender heart in meditation, befriend your vulnerability, and learn to meet yourself with loving awareness — no matter what Soft touch practices and dare to love your body… face, breasts, belly, hips, thighs, and all And much more…
Movement meditations offer us, as women, amazingly effective ways to tune all our energies and come into deeper balance. They provide a means to viscerally feel more flow, as energy and awareness weave together all parts of your being.
Expressive meditation gives you a creative way to release frozen energy and open new currents of vitality and joy. Plus, it’s fun!

Module 1: Embrace All of Who You Are (September 4)
Meditation is a practice of being intimate with yourself, and with nature and life. It’s a wide-open, loving embrace of all of who you are. You’re an embodiment of the creative, evolutionary movement of the universe — from the Big Bang to the formation of this planet and the origin of life, Nature has evolved to express itself as you. Nature loves diversity and individuality. You’re a unique expression of life and love, exactly as you are. Cherish this mystery.
This week, you’ll:
- Discover a radically loving way to meditate that honors your individuality and natural way of being

- Practice a movement meditation for embracing the fullness of who you are — all aspects of your being
- Celebrate your womanhood and individual essence
- Practice artful awareness in daily life
Module 2: Rest in Your Inner Sanctuary (September 11)
Life is intense. Loving is intense. Every woman needs time and space to process and integrate her experience. We all need ways to tap into inner resources for meeting the challenges we face each day. Creating a healthy inner sanctuary is crucial and makes all the difference in the world. Sanctuary is sacred space, such as a church or temple. It’s a refuge, a space of healing. A wildlife sanctuary is where all creatures within are protected and can run free. This week, you’ll discover how that is true for you.
You’ll also learn how to soothe your nerves and receive nourishment and support from the energies of life. You’ll discover how to give yourself sacred time and space to tend all your energies and come into deeper balance.
Balance is an ever-changing flow and every day is different. You’ll learn subtle movements to connect you with your inner essence, so you can come home to yourself, again and again.
This week, you’ll:
- Access your homing instinct to find your way home in the inner world — the path can be different each day
- Discover elements for creating a healthy, loving inner sanctuary, and how to give yourself the time and space you need
- Release stress, fear, anxiety, and other challenges you experience by melting tension with movement meditation and opening to harmonious inner flow
- Build on what you love, and discover how natural, spontaneous moments of deep joy and pleasure, of awe and wonder, appreciating beauty and the miracle of life are clues to your innate pathways into meditation
- Cooperate with the internal wisdom, healing power, and creativity within you
- Breathe in the juiciness of the life force within your own being
Module 3: Claim Your Sovereignty (September 18)
Sovereignty means you are not owned by anyone else. You claim your inner authority — your intrinsic source of wisdom and power. Freedom and power in the world start “at home,” within you.
Beware of imposing rules on yourself, instructions to control and engineer your experience to conform to an old hierarchical way of being designed for men. Ideals of stillness, purity, and detachment from desire have no place in a healthy approach to meditation. The serenity you crave comes from integration of all of who you are.
Discover how through meditation, you can give yourself radical freedom and choice. You can find what works for you, and then take that sovereignty into your outer life of engagement.
This week, you’ll:
- Reclaim your inner territory and free yourself from the grip of perfectionist ideals
- Give yourself choice in meditation — permission to move, which is key to finding inner balance
- Repression leads to depression. Find how to break the taboos to being your full and authentic self
- Learn how to embody your sacred sovereignty in your private world of meditation as well as in your outer life of engagement
- Discover how to live inside the dynamic sphere of your personal space
- Learn ways to strengthen your healthy boundaries, and practice the movements of NO and YES
- Practice inhabiting your full energy space — all 360 degrees
Module 4: Be Tender With Yourself (September 25)
Vulnerability is the partner of empowerment — they go hand in hand and we need to embrace both.
This week, you’ll discover how to practice radical compassion for yourself and your internal experience. Your thoughts have texture and substance. Are you being self-critical, poking and prodding, causing a painful and bitter “inner PH”? A “soft inner touch” in meditation can meld these old patterns of constriction and control, help you come into deeper ease and flow, and to know yourself as the movement of love.
This week, you’ll:
- Learn the secret of “soft inner touch” in meditation
- How to cultivate flow in every level of your being
- Practice soft posture awareness and the places in your body that want to relax and let go
- Learn to appreciate subtle movement and to melt into flow and balance
- Tend to your tender heart in meditation, befriend your vulnerability, and learn to meet yourself with loving awareness — no matter what
- Practice soft outer and inner touch, and dare to love your body… face, breasts, belly, hips, thighs, and all
- Explore the practice, “Sway Away”
Module 5: Celebrate Your Sensuality (October 9)
Your real body is not the one in the mirror. It’s the vibrant inner world of sensation, energy, and flow — the movement of life and love within you. Subtle meditative movement takes you deeper into this pulsing reality — your Body of Love.
Sensuality is a natural part of being healthy. Pleasure is good for your health on every level. Deep pleasure and joy are nourishing to every cell and promote wellbeing in your body and heart. This is a scientific fact.
This week, you discover how to give yourself permission to reclaim your natural sensuality. This can help you to heal hurt, shame, or abuse. You’ll start small, with the senses you use every day and the little things that give you joy or comfort.
This week, you’ll:
- Bust the taboos against pleasure and embrace your natural being, shamelessly
- Discover the “deep pleasure” of resting in your own essence

- Discover that you are the “dance of life,” and that your real body is motion, the way you move through the world
- Learn practices that are natural, pleasurable, and flow with your body’s innate flow to help you get off the linear grid and unwind
Module 6: Dance Your Wild Self (October 16)
Meditation is not to tame you, but to set you free. This week you’ll discover how to Inhabit your healthy creaturehood, and find what helps you thrive. You’ll celebrate your passion, desires, and strengths.
In meditation, you experience the internal theater of all your inner parts and energies — they all come onto the stage. This includes buried or forgotten emotions, such as rage, grief, or fear, which arise to be remembered and transformed. You’ll learn to dance with this intensity and liberate the surge of vitality and joy.
This week, you’ll:
- Ride your inner rhythms into lively balance
- Discover how to deal with the shifting dance of hormones
- Learn how to navigate intense energy and emotion and liberate your life force
- Discover the serenity that comes from embracing your wildness
- Find out that the “feminine” is not just yin, soft, sweet, and pink, and you’ll embrace your female yang, which is fiery, dynamic, penetrating, and clear

- Learn the “Jazz Breath Technique,” which releases any stuck energy — emotional, mental, or physical
- Get behind the mask of your persona and access new subtleties of sensation and expression
- Discover how to improvise within meditation and take that creativity into life
Module 7: Answer the Call of Your Soul (October 23)
Your body and heart are always in communication with life, the universe, and the cosmos. Embodied awareness practices give you ways to commune with your inner essence. You get in touch with your heart’s desire, the deepest longings of your soul.
Your soul is the very essence of your being. Your heart, mind, body, and all your internal personalities — the person that you were, the person you are now, and the person you are becoming. All are present, the totality of your future self. In meditation, you have the opportunity to practice embodying your next organic way of being to evolve into ever-fuller radiance and love.
This week, you’ll:
- Learn to sense the call of your soul
- How to stay current with your ever-evolving inner nature
- Ways to bask in the elixir of life
- How to surrender to your depths — solitude, sorrow, and the sacred well of life
- Discover deeper clarity and meaning through movement meditation

Why Women Need Our Own Approach
Audio Dialogue With Camille Maurine and Lorin Roche, PhD
Camille and Lorin, co-authors of Meditation Secrets for Women, discuss how to evolve a healthy, integrative meditation practice for women of the 21st century. Discover why women benefit greatly from having a variety of inner practices so we can come to love ourselves in a loving artful way — no matter what’s going on in our lives.
Lorin Roche grew up on the beaches of Southern California bodysurfing, surfing, diving, and sailing. In 1968, while a freshman at the University of California, he signed up to be part of a research project on the physiology of meditation, and it was there he first heard the luminous and startling teaching of the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, a classic yoga text describing 112 meditation practices. It was love at first listening. Lorin was trained as a meditation teacher in 1969-1970 and began giving instruction in meditation on college campuses, in businesses, hospitals, military bases, private homes, churches, and even high school campuses. For the last 45 years, Lorin’s passion has been to help people find the meditation techniques that truly suit their inner nature, and coach them to thrive in the practice, year after year. Lorin is the author of Meditation Made Easy, Meditation Secrets for Women (with his wife Camille Maurine), and The Radiance Sutras.
Meditation Secrets for Women
Audio Interview With Janice Lundy and Camille Maurine
Camille was featured as “June’s Diva” on Meditate Like a Girl, the online “magazine” and community created by Janice Lundy. Camille and Janice sort out some of the repressive notions and things that can actually be toxic to the system of a woman, such as any ways we might have internalized self-criticism. For women, meditation practices are more about processing our sensitivity to life, having a nourishing, healing, loving atmosphere, and giving ourselves the permission to create a loving context for ourselves so we can allow the instinctive healing intelligence inside us to be revealed.
Janice L. Lundy is an educator, author, retreat leader, and spiritual director with an interfaith/interspiritual focus in private practice in Michigan. She’s the co-founder and lead teacher of The Spiritual Guidance Training Institute which offers education and certification in interfaith and interspiritual direction. She’s currently Visiting Professor of Spiritual Direction at The Graduate Theological Foundation. She’s the creator of the Pure Presence® method, a unique protocol for sacred listening that can enhance and deepen one’s ability to offer presence to clients and seekers of any tradition.
