This event will ground, reconnect, and restore you—body, mind and spirit—so you can step into the week ahead refreshed. It generally happens in 3 parts, though the schedule is flexible:
•Shamanic Drumming, Singing Bowls, Movement, or other energy raising activity
•Meditation, might be guided visualization, might be silent
•Bliss (healing) Session
Drumming &tc:
"sonic driving" has been used in many shamanic practices to raise energy to be used for healing and intention setting. Moving meditation (such as qigong) and dance are other ways we sometimes get the energy flowing.
Meditation:
generally seated, but feel free to stand, kneel, or lie down. This will be different every week. Depending how the spirit leads us it may focus on: manifestation, self-confidence, love, connection, chakra balancing, spirit animal retrieval, or … ? It is followed by an opportunity for sharing which sometimes segues into group discussion.
Bliss session:
this is a very special form of healing and the largest segment. Bliss sessions are group healings where we draw on ecstatic moments in our lives and direct that energy to an intention for each other's healing and growth. Some may also channel and receive messages from our guides.
You can come and do all three sections for the maximum benefit or you can come for just which part(s) suit you best.
Dress comfortably and feel free to bring your own drums, singing bowls, rattles, or other noise makers, or use the ones provided.
There will be zafus, bolsters, pillows and a few chairs. If you need anything else please feel free to bring whatever you need to feel comfortable.
Event is by donation ($20 suggested).
This is a semimonthly event occurring on the first and third Sunday of every month.
