event-images - SHAMANU-IMMERSION-300sq

TBA Imagine living in intimate relationship with Earth.  Tuned to Her rhythms and cycles you are able to connect with nature’s energy for constant renewal, creativity, and spiritual guidance. Experiencing the sacred unity of all living things you are fulfilled in the knowledge of who you are and your unique part within the web of life. This workshop is an invitation to merge your wild heart with the wonders of creation and come back home to the source of your highest wisdom – your Ecological Self. Turning to Nature as a mentor and guide, the Earth-centered philosophies and practices deepen your innate capacity to make contact with, learn from and be nourished by the spirits of the land. Deepening into the powers of Earth, Water, Sun/Fire, Air and Ether as fundamental forces of who you are re-awakens a great power, confidence and grounding reminder of what’s true and possible. To awaken from the harm that disconnection with Self and Nature has caused requires that we drop below the constraints of the mind and move into the wisdom of body/soul/nature.  Slowing down through multi-dimensional movement, dance, breath, sound and meditation processes softens the illusion of ‘a separate self’ opening new possibilities … Read more

The World Peace Diet: Creating a Culture of Peace – Online

Creating a Culture of Peace

“The revolution that is demanded by our yearning for peace, freedom, and happiness must provide a new foundation for our culture, moving it away from its herding values of oppression and disconnectedness toward the post-herding values of respect, kindness, equality, sensitivity, and connectedness.

Autumn Equinox Celebration & International Peace Day

Autumn Equinox

On this particular day, also known as Mabon, people have come together since time immemorial to honour the bounty of the harvest, bid farewell to the summer days and prepare themselves for the long nights of the coming season. In the Spring, physical and energetic seeds were planted, and through the generosity of the sun’s gaze, we experienced the blossoms and fruits of our creativity. Now, all has been fulfilled: our crops, adventures, relationships, endeavours and spiritual growth.  Autumn Equinox is a day of equal light and dark, inviting us to gather around the hearth of balance and equanimity, to honour what has been given, taken, lost, disappointed and realized, to reflect upon and celebrate the ongoing gift of the terribly beautiful of these times we are in. We choose to gather on the 21st of September, though the cosmological equinox may fall before or after this day each year, to energetically connect with over 200 countries and 80 million people celebrating the ‘International Day of Peace’, also known as ‘Peace the 21st’.. A Ceremony of Sacred Reciprocity In ceremonial space, we offer our gratitude to the tremendous forces that give us Life, inspire, nourish, and heal us from season … Read more

Grandmother Wisdom: Conversations for a New Era

Grandmother Wisdom Quote

with Sandy Masse, Lorenna Bousquet-Kacera & Guests The stories we tell ourselves shape our lives and the world. We have been told since birth what it means to be a woman, how to act, think, feel, even dress. Yet most of these stories and beliefs have little to do with a woman’s true nature and spirit. The Grandmother circles are an opportunity for women, young and old, to come together, ask questions, bring concerns and hear what the grandmothers have discovered after a ‘long-er than most’ journey.    With the advent of a patriarchal system over 10,000 years ago, woman’s status as keepers of the knowledge and equal voices in the community diminished. This is slowly changing, but we aren’t there yet. Grandmother Wisdom has always been an essential and respected part of all ancient and thriving cultures. Living examples of enduring discernment and courage, especially during these times of increased uncertainty are needed to encourage and support each other through the hard and often empty times that we live in. The esteem of parents and friends can only go so far: elders must bring the rest. These evening conversations support women in creating new stories that give birth to … Read more
