Women Matters
A series with women in the Wisdom Factory
Live conversation on Friday March 9th at 6 pm CEST/ 9 am PT
Patriarchy or Matriarchy or WHAT?
In this episode the women of WOMEN MATTERS discuss the topic which arose at the end of our last meeting: Would MATRIARCHY be a solution for us who are dissatisfied of Patriarchy?
It will be a very vivid discussion as we need to sort out ideology which is loading these terms and we will try to look better into the benefits and pathologies of both power systems in the world. Today we have the advantage that humanity has experimented with both forms already and we need to examine the results well before we enter into the hope that a better world would be created simply for the fact that women hold the public power instead of men.
We will need to use our integral roadmap to make the proper distinctions and to put the discourse into an evolutionary context of personal development and that of whole societies.
Our present team: Gertraud Wegst, Tammy Lea Meyer, Heidi Hornlein, Luna Ceovelli, Monia Fruehwirth, Anna Harris

About Anna Harris
Anna grew up in London, BA Sociology, then worked with autistic children, and trained as a child psychotherapist. I worked for 15 years, but could not accept the power relations implied, or the attempt to shape a child to ‘fit in’ to an insane society. My discomfort in unequal power relations, either within the family, school, workplace, institution, or government led to following a spiritual teacher for over 25 years, where I felt more at home. My interest in child rearing practices was rekindled with reading Alice Miller, http://www.alice-miller.com/en/the-truth-will-set-you-free/ which led to discovering the work of neurobiologist Darcia Narvez. http://darcianarvaez.com/about My article, http://www.sublimemagazine.com/healthy-birth-healthy-earth explores the link she describes in her book ‘Neurobiology and The Development of Morality’, between experiences of birth, infancy, and later mental illness, giving rise to many of the problems humanity is facing today. Retirement gives me the freedom to follow my real interests, changing society to more truly reflect the love that created us and that provides the abundance we have around us.

About Monia Fruehwirth
Monika (Monia) is speaking out of the experience of 7 decades of an intense life which was dedicated to the evolution of consciousness in herself and others.
Monika is a true leader. Thanks to her constant efforts the philosophy of Ken Wilber was introduced and spread in Germany. Her way of adopting leadership was – and is – translating innumerable amounts of texts, publishing articles, editing print media and creating the German Integral Association together with some like minded people.
Monika was one of the first women in the German-speaking Integral scene – which at first was very “head biased” – the enthusiasm about a brilliant theory. She introduced into the Integral Community the “Feminine Integral Consciousness Field”, a self-organized group of women who tried to translate the theory into their everyday life practice. My friendship with her began with being part of this group of women and their attempt to find a FEMININE WAY of bringing the Integral WORLDVIEW out into the WORLD.
