Description:
The world around us is filled with intelligent spirits that are part of the natural world. When we invite them into our lives the power and knowledge of these spirits can imbue our work and our spaces with their energy.
Using shamanic techniques, we will learn how to communicate with the spirits of nature and how to invite and build closer connections with them. We will learn the ways that they can support us and how we can better respect them. A deeper relationship with the spirits of nature can support work of all kinds, and will give you a sense of being connected wherever you go.
Outdoor class taught in a beautiful forest preserve, a yurt will be available for inclement weather.
