Spirtual Growth and Transformation

#### Join me for a special Love Fest for Mother Earth.

#### We will start the day with a walk along Enchanting Run to bath in the beauty of nature, the sensory feast of pleasure that calls us back to fall in love, and to learn from her wisdom, and remember we are part of this beauty and this wholeness, and that we can learn to step back into connection with her natural flows where we realize she is speaking to us.

#### Come and see what message she has for you and then end the day around a fire, singing songs and reciting poems for mother nature. I invite everyone to bring a song or poem that really speaks to them about the Mother Earth and Mother Nature, to share.

##### Bring a picnic lunch a water bottle, walking stick if you have one, shoes with good grip for rocks and ok if they get wet. River shoes, crocks barefoot shoes, old time tennis shoes etc. Wear long pants and protection from ticks. Bugs are not bad here, but there are a few.

#####

##### We will meet down the hill from the Campground at the Gazebo. When you pull into the driveway go past the first house and down the hill. Follow the drive straight into the forest and park off the road if possible. More parking at the fork and at the lodge.

##### I look forward to a loving rich and beautiful time with Mother Earth here in our little neck of the woods.

Soul Time in Sacred Spaces is offered here at the Earthwalk Retreat. Time to get your dose of Vitamin N coming from the new Spring.
Spring awakens the reverence for the mystery of sacred emergence which is so much needed these days, but to fully activate this we need to have immersion time.

This immersion experience is offered monthly on the 4th Sunday each month. But you can practice and do more on your own. A few hours a week will do wonders for health and wellbeing.

Immersion in the beauty and fresh innocence of nature allows us to also be renewed. Spring reminds us that life is eternal and life is sacred. So no matter how you conceive of a higher power, the experience of creation must lead us closer to that which is its source.

Come and find a deep spiritual connection through nature and learn to cultivate it and let it touch us deeply. Many have felt the awe of beautiful cathedrals with their interior heights reaching up to the sun. In the forest the trees hold the original template of that space. Come enjoy the Cathedral of the Forest here at Earthwalk Ways.

We will do a variety of attunements and meditations to deepen our sensory interface and felt connection with spirit.... within this Forest Cathedral.

Hope to see you here. For more information feel free to contact me at earthwalkways@gmail.com or call 540 752 5540. Leave a message if I do not answer.

If weather is just a bit rainy, I now have a new gazebo in the woods were can be protected and also connected.

You can park along side the drive in several places. If you go straight into the woods you will have a circle and there is some parking at the campsite, There is parking at the fork and parking at the lodge but you might get blocked in there so if you plan to stay later and you are welcome to continue to enjoy this beautiful nature retreat, this would be a good spot for you.

Dear Transformers, Please join me for our on-going series. Based on very deep channeled lectures on the soul's purpose on earth and the process of conscious evolution, it includes an in depth exploration of our inner distortions, defenses, and ways that we lose ourselves. With great compassion and encouragement the Guide asks us to engage consciously with life and its larger spiritual purposes. There are 258 lectures and we have been going through them in order. You can download all lectures for free at http://www.pathwork.org

If you would like more support coming into this discussion, please feel free to call me or join me on one of the Soul Whispering sessions to have a more basic general conversation about this material.

When the lectures were given new people would join in the middle so to speak. So each lecture is a small microcosm of the larger path. As you read more of them, the more the whole gestalt emerges. They are really quite amazing so I hope you give it a try. Truly a Path of Self-transformation.

Rather than try to keep up with the lectures, please contact me at my regular email heaven@earthwalkways.com or telephone 540 752 5540 to find out the current lecture and get the notes.

Welcome to our first lodge of the Year. We have to wait till after the end of April due to fire danger, but this is the most beautiful time here at the Earthwalk Retreat. The real leafing out of the Forest is just beginning. and it is a perfect time of year for a camp out. A beautiful ceremony of balance and wholeness, of cycles that bring renewal but also loss. It helps as humans to participate in this process of shedding the old to renew and birth the next cycle. There are cycles within cycles, so every day is a day of rebirth and renewal, of endings and loss. When we come to the lodge we heal our duality by embracing all of life and death and our lodge in May is to welcome and celebrate this new year and see what we want to pray for and what we want to release into the earth and offer to spirit. These are strong times and this is a beautiful way to pray with and for all Creation.

People are welcome to come Saturday and camp out over night. We will have a fire circle in the evening and depending on the flow there might be ways you can help get the lodge ready. We will build the fire unless it is raining at 4pm.

Please let me know your eta and any special needs or concerns. Its good to arrive early to orient yourself and get settled. Water and power are available at most camping areas. You will want to bring something for the evening for yourself, and then we do a pot luck after the lodge and also bring snacks for the morning. I have a large pot of bean soup and so salads and chips and sides and fruit are all welcome.

We will begin the Lodge Ceremony at 10 AM on Sunday. We are on ceremonial time but usually we are completing the lodge around 3 and heading up for a pot luck feast and time to socialize. Besides food, you will need to bring a couple of towels, and cloths to be in the woods and cloths to be in the lodge. For the lodge it is good to have light fitting breathable cloths, shorts, and t-shirt or women often wear a skirt. Bring layers appropriate for the weather.

Bring a water bottle. High Blood Pressure is contra indicated. This lodge is a very receptive style lodge where mother nature holds us and invites us to relax and feel supported. It is not about endurance or forcing oneself or being masochistic. It is about releasing and not holding up or on or together or any of that...
