“Ever since I started writing I grew increasingly fascinated by us, humans, and the great times of change we are in. Looking at the world I see how male oriented it is and how it absolutely lacks a feminine aspect in the way we perceive and organise our societies. Attending different kinds of workshops and women circles I discovered how consciously connected women can help restore the disbalance and focus on the humane and fundamental aspect of the crises we encounter. I am especially intrigued by what we would call ‘the dark femine’, the more unknown aspects of the feminine and our shadow sides. For I am convinced that before actively recreating a new world (yang), we will need to turn inwards (yin) to understand that our outer world is merely a reflection of our inner world, and to face and embrace our shadows. You cannot really help to heal the world if you are not willing to heal yourself.”

Anne Wislez (°1966, Belgium) is a journalist and has been editing in the feminine press for about 30 years, where she mostly covered societal, psychological and spiritual topics. She recently quit her job as editor in chief of Psychologies Magazine (Belgium) to fully dedicate to the journey ‘From Sinai to Schiehallion – and back’ with her partner Ton. In fall 2020 she started a weekly open online Women’s Council to find out what women really want and how women can change the world, not by doing, but by ‘being’.
