🌿 Welcome Neurokin to 'Embracing the Crone' a safe and nourishing haven for Autistic women & non-binary+ (45+) on this Thursday.

"Dear brave souls, I warmly invite you to come be at the fireside with me and the Dangerous Old Woman and the Power of the Crone. Who is the crone? She is the most dangerous, the most radical, the most revolutionary woman in existence. Whether in fairy tales or in consensual reality, the old one goes where she wants to and she acts as she wishes; she lives as she chooses. And this is all as it should be. And no one can stop her. Nor ought they try."
Clarissa Pinkola Estés (The Power of the Crone: Myths and Stories of the Wise Woman Archetype, 2011)

🌿 Why as late-identified Autistics we embrace 'crone energy'
The Crone is a benevolently powerful archetypal instinct to embrace in oneself. She is battle-scarred, richly wise and deeply committed to knowing and being her true self. She is recognising her own power and has less f@cks to give about conventional ways of being. Connection with her authentic self and finding her own peace and equilibrium are her priorities. She has much to teach, to share but only on her own terms and only with those who are worthy.

🌿 As late-identified Autistic women & non-binary+ we embrace this hard-won power. As survivors of many battles, we gather to share and appreciate each other, to compare scars, to share wisdom to learn from neurokin on the same healing odyssey.
If this resonates for you-we would love to meet you.

🌸One of the unique intersectional experiences that is barely recognised by society or research is that of late-in-life identification-Autistic Elders. After a life time, to discover this core and essential understanding of yourself is truly a unique experience that requires ‘safe-enough’ spaces with neurokin for sharing and support.

🌸At Neurokindred we run an online peer support group and an online discussion group specifically for Autistic Elders.

This week is:
⚔ Age of Valor: Autistic Elders (50+) Peer Support Group

Cost: Free*
Co-facilitators: Karen Noble & KJ Wiseheart
Queries: linda@neurokindred.com
Book online: https://www.neurokindred.com/bookings

🌸We are also always collating ‘The Autistic Elders Anthology’ -a ‘memory chest’ style collection of reflections, poetry, commentary & other wordings & art that illustrate the different and unique experiences of Autistics who discover their neurodivergence later in life.

🌸We are committed to amplifying the voices of Autistic Elders and their experiences-please contact us if you would like to submit a piece.

Session 1-Orientation (What do we want from this space?) plus the Introduction-Tuesday February 24th

To guide the discussion we will look at “4 questions to help you think” from the Decolonizing Therapy, LLC Discussion Workbook

4 QUESTIONS To help you think:
1. What would true wellness and care support look like for one another according to the book Intro?
2. Using the "babies in the water" metaphor can you identify ways where systemic inequities have caused harm around you?
3. Where in your life can you identify places where your identities are political?
4. What are ways that you can put into into place to love on yourself while you read this book?

Link to the free Decolonizing Therapy Book Guide (details required: name. email, Neurokindred Book Club): https://decolonizingtherapy.myflodesk.com/book-guide

From then, we will cover one chapter a month.
