***Sacred Cacao has long been considered food of the Gods, it has been used for thousands of years in ceremonies and rituals to awaken our Hearts. It is a wisdom keeper in alignment with the power animal of Jaguar in the East, the portal of the Mind. It is the gatekeeper of the unknown, and gatekeeper to our ecological awakening.
⠀
Theobromine or Sacred Cacao is also a sacred messenger as it was used as a delivery system for other plant medicines to be driven deep into the cells of our bodies as its alkaloids and bioflavonoids work to relax blood vessels, open the airways, focus the mind and open the heart.***

​Shamanism is a system of a direct revelation. It is also a dynamic ancient practice of being and living in Sacred Reciprocity with the World. It is an ancient practice of healing as much as it is a stat of being in the awareness that all is Sacred. It is a practice that allows us to fine tune our process of being in relationship with our Selves, each other and the ecosystem that supports us all.

The Native Ancient Practices of our Land, of South America and Asia have as their foundation a scared relationship with the 5 elements. We are indeed made of the 5 elements in different ratios, which makes each of us unique to our own Soul Purpose. In understanding how the elements are expressing themselves through us, either in their full potential or in disharmony, we can begin to claim our path to wholeness and deep healing by more consciously understanding and shifting their expression through us.

During each week we will dive into the Power of the Elements, we will Shamanically Journey into our current relationship with the Element and open up to the awareness of what is needed at this time in our personal lives through Self Inquiry. By coming into deeper alignment with the Elements, we can harness a deeper space of Harmony within ourselves, for we are made of all the 5 elements.

The Process of Alignment with Soul is one through which you will learn the language and the forms through which Spirit constantly speaks.

Week 1: Honouring the Earth, Kissing the Ground
Week 2: Flowing Waters, Trusting Soul
Week 3: Learning to fly again, Mindful Movements of Air & Honouring Spirit
Week 4: Shape-shifting with Fire, Awakening the Heart
Week 5: The Rainbow Bridge, Ether & The Thin Spaces in Between

THROUGH THIS 5 WEEK SERIES YOU WILL:

- Learn about the South American Mesa Tradition of Shamanism
- Learn how to build your own Mesa
- Learn and dive into the Power of each one of the Elements (Earth, Fire, Air, Ether) for deep healing, awareness, and their potential to activate within us the necessary shifts of our transformation
- Immerse into the power of weekly Shamanic Journeys in alignment with the Elements and weekly integration exercises for harnessing the transformational power these allies can activate within us
- Immerse into the power of mindfulness as a tool for accessing the inner space of Sacredness
- Create a stronger foundation for well being in sacred reciprocity and relationship with the world beyond the Veil where Magic & Medicine reside

Wild Earth Wisdom/Ecstatic Trance Postures
​~
Guided by Ingrid Cryns
Saturday, March 21st, April 25th &
May 23rd
2:00pm-5:30pm
Investment $50

Wild Earth Wisdom, offers new ways to inspire and empower people to live eco-spiritual and soul-filled lives in alignment with a conscious and thriving Earth.  This work is about how we can achieve a more resilient way of living by developing our inner and outer self-sufficient wilderness. By opening up our hearts, eyes and ears to new levels of perception, we become holy partners with Nature. As a form of Sacred Ecology wisdom, Wild Earth Wisdom is a synthesis of a number of different areas and growing grass-roots movements such as eco-psychology, wilderness therapy, and deep green ecology principles.  It integrates transpersonal consciousness work, ancestral and native indigenous wisdom practices, ceremony and rituals in all cultures, as well as essential self-sufficient living and homesteading principles including permaculture gardening and natural building.

The intention of this monthly group is to offer space to truly listen deeply within, on an individual as well as a group collective level. To respond to what comes up in the moment and offer healing through possible individual and/or group work processing on physical, emotional, energetic and spiritual levels.

We live in an ecstasy deprived culture, where we catch glimpses of the ultimate, ecstatic joy that we all have the capacity to experience through sex, the initial infatuation of romantic love, or through drugs, dancing, or perhaps rave experiences. Imagine a culture of people, who choose to cultivate a regular practice of ecstatic joy (alone and/or with each other), through consistent entrainment, that is safe, stable, non-drug induced, immunity enhancing and life-force expanding.

‘Get out of your left brain for a few minutes & enjoy the wonders found through a right brain/body experience with the SACRED’

One way of exploring the ecstatic experience of the SACRED, is through the wonder of Ecstatic Trance Postures. Participants can have a variety of experiences through the ‘Alternate Reality’ by inducing a trance state with the fast rhythm of a rattle while sitting or standing in a very specific posture for 15 minutes.  The rattle allows an “acoustic driving” affect that blocks the verbal left hemisphere of the brain and opens access to the intuitive right hemisphere. The postures act as a biological door, like a gateway in our body to allow us to open up into the ‘Alternate Reality’. It is about learning from direct experience. As there are no drugs or herbs to induce the trance state, it is extremely safe and one can simply break the posture anytime and go back into it as needed.
 
‘Experience the science of a Shamanic Journey & ecstatic body feeling’

Possible types of experience:
*A profound sense of joy and deep love
*An increase of energy & immune system boost
* An absorbing or clearing of emotional and/or physical toxins
* Receiving a flow of healing energy

One can explore:
* A experience of being a plant or animal, or
* A journey to lower world, middle world or upper world realities, or
* Divination – Hearing advice or given images to interpret as advice  

Sacred Sound Journey Workshop
~
Winter date coming soon...
​7:00pm - 8:30pm
Investment $30

✨Come join Anica as she guides you through a Sacred Sound Journey of meditation and a resonant Sound Bath for sealing our regenerative attunement. Utilizing 7 quartz crystal bowls, each one tuned to the harmonic notes ABCDEFG, which correlates to each of the 7 chakras, we will effectively target each chakra on a cellular level, initiating cellular movement and regeneration. 

Why sound therapy you may ask? The frequency of the bowls are 432HZ, this frequency is attuned with the energy of the cosmic universe, and as such unites you on a cellular level to universal harmony. Since 432HZ is grounded in the fundamental structure of nature itself it bestows upon the listener a deeper sense of balance and harmony. As well as bridging you with higher states of consciousness as you experience these sounds and as you induce alpha brain waves, bringing about a very deep sense of relaxation and release. The natural purity and light energy from the bowls enables one to seamlessly acknowledge, identify and remove any mental impediments post sound bath either on a conscious or unconscious level, clearing one's mind, and attuning ones-self to their highest self. 

Sound Healing with Justine and Jay
~
Saturday April 25th
​7:00-8:30pm
Investment $40

Save the date Tribe!!!  We will be graced with a very special visit from Justine Sanderson and Jay Robinson for this 90 minute Sound Bath offering featuring Didgeridoo, Sitar, Gongs, Shruti Box and Crystal Singing Bowls. A gentle yet powerful experience for the mind and body. This event will support states of deep relaxation, where stress release and healing can occur.

Sound Baths begin with each person lying down or seated in a comfortable position. After a few moments of guided focus on the breath and group unifying sounds, the remainder of the experience is filled with different sounds and frequencies being introduced and resonated through many unique instruments and tones. Each Sound Bath is a one of a kind and inspiring opportunity for personal growth, reflection and calmness.

Sound can bring balance, relaxation and a sense of wholeness to the body. The sound of harmonic vibrations created by the Didgeridoo, Singing Bowls, Gongs and other overtone-emitting instruments are intended to stimulate the alpha and theta brain waves. These waves are associated with deep meditative and peaceful states that are highly conducive to healing. Sound can also slow down the heart and respiratory rate, creating a therapeutic effect on the mind and body.

Space is limited, please connect with us soon to save yours.
