Shamanu: Journey into Sacred Silence

event-images - WINTER-SOLSTICE-300sq

Entering the space of sacred silence is essential for the balance and regeneration of your spirit. It’s where you remember and connect to the vast wisdom and primal knowing of who you are. Where you come home to yourself to recharge, balance and ‘Dream’. In this space the Sacred whispers, and you listen. Through the nourishing dance of silence, we allow the fluidity of movement, breath and sound to gently guide us into the home of dreams, visions and regeneration. Gentle somatic processes integrate, cleanse, and make space for the new.  Active breath and earth-centred meditation revitalize the energy centers, attuning the body, mind and spirit. Perceiving our bodies as living expressions of Air, Fire, Water, Earth and Ether, we journey into their great wisdom teachings within and around us. Surrendering to the heart’s primacy and its power of receptivity, we access the realms of intuition, feelings, and felt awareness where we can hear Earth’s voice as She calls us into what is new for self and planet. This journey is an invitation to enter the sweet darkness of Autumn and return to the womb of inner silence for rejuvenation and visioning of the ‘yet to be’. The Journey Includes … Read more

WomanEarth: Leadership – The Dance of Water & Fire

event-images - SPIRITUAL-NUTRITION-300sq

October 30 & 31, 2021, New Moon Energy “As we see it, the Earth and women are the same; what happens to one happens to the other.” ~ Arkan Lushwala, Peruvian ceremonial leader We see an unhealthy imbalance between masculine (fire)  and feminine (water) principles. There is too much fire.  A great drought of the sacred feminine principles threatens the very existence of life on Earth. Her sweet waters dammed, over-used, bottled and evaporated, causing severe instability in nature, society, economics, education, healthcare and the governing leadership. You could say all of the ominous challenges of our time are a reflection of this imbalance.  The industrial complex offers a leadership model centred in power-over nature and people, production over compassion, and the ‘bottom line’ over love and generosity. The sacred feminine invites us into a new story of leadership. Leadership that values wholeness,  listening, intuition, the unknown and embodiment.  One that is both caring and bold. Leadership centred in Life’s values, is no-nonsense in its approach, embraces diversity, supports personal empowerment, and acts as co-creators with Mother Earth. A sense of meaningful purpose fashions this kind of leadership guided by the sacred feminine principles of love and solidarity. It seeks … Read more
