- Living with the Trickster - Coyote Healing Weekend RetreatVass, Vass, NC$300.00
Unexpected change - upending everything - what do we do with it? In this weekend retreat, we'll work with the teachings of Coyote - thought to be the Trickster in Native American tradition - to explore what we need to learn and apply in our lives. Together we'll hold ceremony, journey, drum, sing simple sacred songs, and have invitation to share from our lives & experiences to create a space for personal healing, rest, rejuvenation, or what is most needed. Along with Coyote, we'll work with the element of fire, the emotions, and the energy of summer.
The lessons for our personal growth during the time of Coyote on the Medicine Wheel are Growth, Trust, & Love.

Cyndy - Medicine Wheel Drum BirthingVass, Vass, NC$488.00
Drums are empowering instruments that we can use to honor Spirit and to heal, clear, and generate energy.

You may journey to the heart of your new drum and ask how it wishes to manifest its journey on its Earth walk.
Will the drum you are creating be a personal medicine tool, a community tool, a healing tool? In the process of birthing your drum, it is possible to experience a deep-seated initiatory-type transformation and integration of your personal power.
Cyndy and Spirit will guide you through all of the simple techniques of creating your drum.
It is my honor to help you bring your drum into being.

- Summer Quadrant of the Medicine Wheel - Growth, Trust, LoveLink visible for attendees$300.00
For millennia, the natural world has taught - and continues to teach - us about ourselves, giving valuable insights into our lives & personal growth. In this 6-session committed series, we'll study the animals, plants, and minerals of the summer quadrant of the Medicine Wheel, which bring our attention to Growth, Trust, & Love. The sacred circle that we create together forms a safe space where we may share our life experiences, celebrations, and journeys - and support each other to take action in our lives. Through ceremonies, sound healing, sacred chants, group drumming, and story-telling, we will explore the energies of summer, the realm of emotions, the element of fire, and the medicine of Coyote.
Coyote is thought to be the Trickster in Native American tradition. She teaches us to lighten up and laugh at ourselves; to lean into our emotions and passions; to honor the transformation of fire, and to journey deep inside of ourselves – to remember what we already know – our purpose this lifetime.
Shamanism is a very sacred and ancient practice that allows us to feed ourselves with ancient teachings that have been passed down from generation to generation. It is believed to be the oldest integrative healing modality on the planet. Shamanism provides us with a lifetime process and its power is truly felt in the bones with ripples of direct revelation and inspiration.
Prior to experiencing your first quadrant of the wheel, you are invited to complete Self-Healing through Shamanic Journey. This course will prepare you to use the shamanic journey process for self-empowerment throughout your life.
In the summer quadrant, we will explore three spiritual teachings of the Medicine Wheel:
- GROWTH – What we are growing in our lives?
- TRUST – What and who we can trust? Is there room for us to trust more in a wise way?
- LOVE – What do we truly love? Is there room to open into greater love that's resilient & resourced?
Why the Medicine Wheel? We are being called to unity, awakened consciousness, and a deep connection with the Earth and all of our relations. We are being called to know ourselves, our relationship with the natural world, and our highest purpose at this time. We are being called to circle together.
We will circle from 6:30-9:00 pm EDT every other Thursday (June 27 through & including September 5) in the virtual world of Zoom.
The energy exchange is $300.
