Workshop(s)
Workshop 1: Earth Magic ~ Being at Home in Nature
Young children are enchanted by earth’s magic ~ the flutter of birds, the colors of a rainbow, or the sounds of a thunderstorm. Open your sensory body and imagination to Earth and your own wild nature. Shift consciousness through movement and ceremony. Engage in a conversation with the natural world. Nature based peoples from whom we all originate had regular conversations with the “animate” natural world. The oldest belief system in the world, Animism is not considered a religion, but a way of experiencing the world. Transforming yourself and root your human consciousness in its innate origins. Join me for an experiential immersion of deep listening in nature!
Workshop 2: Shifting Consciousness, Soul, and Cultural Transformation
In “Active Hope,” Joanna Macy and Chris Johnstone write about the three dimensions of “The Great Turning” which involve a commitment to act for the sake of life on Earth. The third dimension of action is shifting consciousness, deepening our belonging in the world. Our soul connects us to the mysteries of life and reveals what’s most worth doing and being. Listening and cultivating a life directed by Earth and Soul allows us to embody our unique artistry in service the world. Soul initiation ripens and matures the ego, in that in no longer lives to serve itself, but the greater story and vision of Earth and soul. Join me for a talk and discussion (questions and answers) on the connection between shifting consciousness, soul, and cultural transformation.
A quote from Animas Valley Institute website ~ “Soulcraft® skills and practices evoke the world-shifting experience of soul encounter: the revelation of our unique mythopoetic identity expressed through symbol and metaphor, image and dream, archetype and myth, and embodied in a mysterious story that whispers to us in moments of expanded awareness and exquisite aliveness. The shape and rhythm of this story reveals the hidden treasure that each of us carries for the world—a world longing for the transformative contributions of visionary leaders and artisans of cultural renaissance.”
