Connecting With Your Totem Guide
Taught by Wasentha Young While the term totem is derived from the North American Ojibwa language, belief in guardian spirits is not limited to indigenous peoples of the Americas but is common to a number of cultures worldwide. A totem can take the form of animal or entity (i.e. dragon, phoenix, beetle) spirit and acts as your guardian and/or protector. It watches over and helps guide you in a way that supports your heart and authentic being. During these sessions Wasentha will help you journey inward to find or reconnect with your totem. With her guidance you will go through a process of integrating and embodying your totem using meditation, art, writing and creating your totem dance. (This workshop does not require previous experience.) Limit 10 participants. Thursdays: May 27, June 3, 10 $108 7 - 9 pm Register Now |

Everyday Compassion
Taught by Susan Billmaier, with Special Guest Brad Vanlandingham (Karma Jinpa Tarchen) Compassion literally means “to suffer together.” It is a concern for the well-being of others; it is our capacity to be open to the reality of suffering and to aspire to its healing. Compassion is similar to other types of emotional understanding such as empathy (a vicarious experience of another person’s emotion.); altruism (a principle of devotion to the welfare of others.); benevolence (a desire to do good or promote the happiness of others through kindness and generosity.) This class teaches tools to increase capacity for compassion by making it tangible and concrete within everyday situations and relationships. This skill increases personal emotional resiliency and fortitude, which can then be used to increase the quality of compassion in relationship with other people. Sundays: May 30, June 6, 13; 10:00 - 11:00 am ET $54 Register Now |

Shadow Work Through the Chakras
Taught by Mara Evenstar Can shadow work be joyful? You bet! In this course, the shadow refers to any hidden, unconscious, and/or rejected parts of ourselves – that includes our gifts! Shadow work is the conscious effort to “know thyself” as fully as possible. When we “free” our shadows, we release the need to repress them or project them out onto the world and others – resulting in a freer, more authentic and empowered life. The seven main energy centers of the chakra system will provide a fertile ground for our exploration. You do not need to be literate in shadow work or the chakra system to benefit from this course, just a willingness to practice my 3C’s (cultivating compassionate curiosity). In this intimate class of only 6 participants, we will be using a combination of sacred play, witnessing circle, contemplation, reflection and ritual to bring the shadow aspects of our seven main energy centers into the light for acceptance, integration and healing. $333 |

Be Your Own Oracle
Taught by Jeanne Adwani The definition of an oracle is a person with great wisdom; someone believed to have communication with a deity/deities. In this 4-part, experiential dive into You as Oracle, we will explore various tools and wisdom techniques that bring you to a deeper understanding of what it might mean for you to connect to your own wisdom, your inner oracle. With a leap of faith into what is perceived as the unknown, the spirit world, between the veil, magic, nature lore, we will play in possibilities. The intention of this course is to feel- into, see-into, touch-into, intuit-into the gifts you already have, that perhaps you already sense or simply wish to explore. We will work with Tarot cards, healing touch, energetic connection, auric fields, chakras, pendulums, the different ways your body responds to different situations and what that may or may not mean. We will especially work in the realm and the gifts found in silence and trust. We will discuss the ethics of being a "reader"; the difference of inviting and calling up the wisdom of whom you are working with and "fortune telling". How will you best serve the Highest Good in the moment? |
