    - - Explore the ALTERNATIVE REALITY through ECSTATIC TRANCE POSTURES

Experience the science of Shamanism & ecstatic body feeling. While sitting or standing in a very specific posture, listening to a rattle shake in a steady manner for only 15 minutes, participants enter into a trance state. 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. There will be time to discuss our experiences after each posture.
