Workshop(s)
Workshop 1: Introduction to the Ringing Cedars Movement and Kin’s Domains
The Global Movement of Today based on Wisdom from our Ancestors.
We shared experiences from Ringing Cedars inspired communities worldwide, including Russia, the US, and the organization that aims to fund the movement. Creating a domain for our kin awakens our connection to the Earth. Discovering the wisdom within connects us to our ancestors and our kin. By making choices with our future generations in mind we can plant the seeds of the forest for their future.
We shared how the movement is developing in Russia and here in the US. We discussed the basis behind the Ringing Cedars movement and how one goes about creating a “Space of Love” or Domain for their Kin. This is our healing place to commune with nature and re-balance our energies, celebrating life and developing our creative powers. We believe creating communities of kin’s domains is the answer to restoring balance within ourselves and upon the Earth. By working with nature and learning from our interaction with her we can become self sustaining on this Space of Love. Leading to a change in your view of relationship with yourself, family, nature, and God. The more people create these spaces, the more healthy the human population, the soil, the water, and the air will become.
As founders of the non-profit organization Kin Domain Academy we aim to support families in their journey towards sustainable and regenerative living. Our mission is to collect, enhance, and share experience and knowledge gained by creating a kin’s domain. It is time to re-introduce ancient Vedic traditions and festivals to awaken our consciousness and nurture a culture for the “New Earth Civilization”. Let’s spread the knowledge and restore paradise on Earth.
