A Shaman is a medicine person who bridges the worlds between ordinary and non- ordinary reality. One who crosses the veil to divine information and give healings. The Shaman sees the spiritual side of people, plants, animals and can communicate directly with spirit. Shaman’s source is nature and she sees the universe as one. To the shaman, looking with non-ordinary vision, sickness is caused by soul loss, and energy intrusions. Healing takes place on an energetic level of engagement.

In this class:
We will learn to journey to non-ordinary reality, to contact and create a relationship with power animals, plant allies, nature spirits and teachers. In these states we have direct access to spirit, strengthen our relationship to nature, and strengthen our luminous field.

We will learn to get questions answered and receive healings from the spirits of plants, animals and teachers.

We will explore and map the cosmos of non-ordinary reality.

This class will include the Exploration of past soul loss and group healing rituals. We will address our deepest separateness and isolation.

Bring a drum or rattle, blanket, scarf, pad and pen.

This is a dynamically powerful technique that utilizes a high vibrational energy force created by a specific breathing pattern. This technique allows us to have more energy, release conscious and unconscious holdings, feel more peaceful and joyful and raise our level of consciousness.

Homeopathy of the Spine is an extraordinarily gentle and effective system of spinal alignment. The two fundamental beliefs of Homeopathy of the Spine are: that the body has the ability to heal itself and that body structure governs body functions. A poorly aligned structure will produce sluggish organ functioning, backaches, neck problems or joint pains.

Homeopathy of the Spine is a system developed by Arthur Lincoln Pauls, a British trained Osteopath.

It is a system of working with the innate reflexes of the body to bring about better structural alignment. The techniques are gentle and completely non-forceful. They combine the contacting of tense trigger points of the body with the movements which initiate self corrective reflexes. These movements are an exaggeration of the persons preferred posture. Exaggerating this position allows muscular and ligimentous tension to release, increasing the body's ability to obtain more balance. As a spirit we know our imbalances are our best attempt to create homeostasis with our wounding. Working with innate healing energy is deeply respectful and validating of our client's pace.

Cranial-Sacral bodywork is a system of healing that releases tensions in the cranial bones and the membranes deep to them. This allows the cerebral-spinal fluid to flow in its intended space, bathing the brain and spinal cord. Working this way requires the sensitivity to perceive internal rhythms and patterns. It is both very gentle and deeply relaxing – rekindling deep soul memories.

Level I: December 2nd, 3rd & 4th, 2011.

The focus is on increasing the sensitivity and receptivity of touch. A protocol for cranial lifts, decompression, compressions, and perceiving rhythms will be taught. This will leave you with a complete protocol for beginning your practice.

We begin daily with a deep meditation to open our inner awareness of our own rhythms and subtle energy fields.

• Learn how to recognize, identify and palpate the cranial rhythms
• Learn about subtlety of touch, tuning into the intersection of the etheric and physical bodies
• Learn how energy recognizes, moves and transforms with your presence, following what is happening rather than fixing
• Learn a complete protocol of indirect techniques to release the occiput, frontal, parietal, temporal and sphenoid bones
• Learn sacral release and the connection between the occiput and sacrum
