OVERVIEW:

Day 1 "The Offering".- This is the opening workshop and it is compulsory to access the following two. Our Great Mother Earth has been standing with us since the beginning of times. She is always there, taking care of us, endlessly giving us a beautiful home, nourishment, and always catching us when we fall. She has created for us and all of her children the perfect environment to grow and evolve. She created all of her children so they can co-respond with each other in accordance to the great cosmic laws including the law of balance and harmony. Despite this impeccable creation, following the years of conditioning, technological progress and chase after money and material things, we as humanity forgot where our home is. We didn't just forget, but we are blindly destroying our home along with our ever-giving mother and our brothers and sisters. So how did we get here? and most importantly how do we turn around?  "The Offering" is a time when we finally stop and look at what we have done as humanity. We look to see and to feel the suffering of our Great Mother and our family. We look to own our part and by owning it, we stand side by side with our brothers and sisters to create a meaningful change and to began to restore balance between humanity and the Natural Kingdom.  ​ In this 8 hours of magical journey you will listen and be heard, to support all Life in many cases of injustice and ignorance done by humanity. You will connect deeply with voices of plants, animals, trees and Mother Earth so you can be the sacred witness to their story and support them on their healing path, and following the principle "we are all one" you will be healing yourself.  This workshop was created as a result of multiple spiritual experiences and direct guidance from spirit in order to help humanity to access deep level of compassion for all life and to restore your spiritual connection with Mother Earth, and all of beings.  If this message moves your heart, come and join us on this magical path.

Day 2 The Divine Blue Print Our Amazing Mother Nature has been forever guiding us back to our true selves. She has left messages for us everywhere we look, wanting to ensure that her children can always find the way back home. She speaks to us through many different channels, always communicating. And although she created us all as one, connected to each other and perfectly corresponding with each-other, we as humanity lost our ways and forgot about our unity with all life. We walk this earth today disconnected from nature and our role in it.  We don't understand our Mother any more, we cant hear Her calling.  In this workshop learn to reconnect to the language of Nature so you can finally hear her. Learn how to access profound wisdom from Nature and to deeply connect to unity with all beings. Learn to understand "the Path" and the Divine Blueprint within us all. Begin to understand how to apply the wisdom of Nature and Mother Earth to align yourself with your path and to bring balance and harmony to your life.  "This workshop was created as a result of deep yearning to belong to Mother Earth, a yearning to connect on a deeper, more meaningful level with Mother Earth, animals, plants, elements, and to feel at one with them and part of them. This yearning resulted in a 5year journey when I quit my job and went on a personal re-wilding project, practising shamanism and shedding layer after layer to come back to the Wild Human self. To become, the child of Mother Earth again. The child that hears and knows, the child that sees and is witnessed, the one that feels and walks with Spirit." if you also feel the void in your heart, the everlasting need to belong we invite you to follow this need and to join us on this incredible journey to unity and belonging with all Life.

Day 3 Shaman's Voice Expression. Pretty basic action, that follows our everyday adventures. It can be physical, vocal or energetic. It comes in many shapes and colors, forever giving us a chance to show up in the world in our own unique way. And although we express constantly, through our words, actions and through the vibration we send out, there is many times that we find ourselves struggling to explain what we truly feel. We hear ourselves say " I was speechless, I was lost for words." In many cases the vocabulary that we are looking for simply does not exist.  How could it be, that after million years of evolution, we struggle to put a word on certain areas that exist with in our world?  Is the lack of options, truly down to the limitations of the languages we speak or could it be so, that there is a whole different way of communicating available to us...the original way?  "Shaman's Voice" is a continuation of a re-wilding journey to reconnect with the primal self within. This 6-8 hours workshop, will take you on a journey, to reconnect with your native self, the wild spirit that dwells within us. You will learn to understand and practice, a new way of communicating, innate to yourself and the spirit within. You will get to meet yourself at the origins of your expression, wild and unbridled. You will learn to express in your native way, honoring your Ancestors and united with the Kingdom of Nature. You will get to understand the guidance of your voice and learn to express yourself in a non-intellectual way, but guided by your heart, your intuition and the ancient spirit of your voice. Following this guidance, you will unlock an ancient channel to healing self and others, you will activate your heart and your intuition. You will finally aces the innate wilderness that will set you free from the limitations of your mind so you can finally walk your path following the voice of your heart and your intuition.   If your soul is smiling now, and you are feeling the call of the wild, join us on this magical path to bewilder yourself in to freedom, healing and tremendous inner power.

Day 4 Avatar Ceremony-Heal and Manifest Reality Have you an inner knowing that you aren't accessing your true self. Do you also feel, like you are contained in a box of socially accepted, rules, mannerism, voices,  and expectations that leaves you with the feeling that you don't fit in? Are you also feeling that we are loosing our basic humanity due to political correctness, business orientated regulations and money orientated global mentality? Have you a yearning for the ancient ways to come back and to restore balance and harmony in our human kingdom? if this message resonates with you, read on.  Since the begging of times, sound has remained a great mystery to human kind. In the ancient bible we read "In the begging there was word and the word was god" inclining that sound was one of the very first items at the begging of creation. The ancient Nordics practised a discipline called weaving. The nordic muses would sit in nature and weave with their voices the shape of the world they were trying to create in to the barrier of sound. The Gnostic Christianity teaches us that light, heat and sound are one of the three primordial forces of creation. The ancient Egyptians believed that the pyramids where created using a frequency of sound, some still stands by this today. So the mystery continues...  The Avatar Healing is the time where we reconnect to our ancient ways. With a group of like minded people, we join forces on a path to a meaningful change. During the 6 hours of this spiritual, but also roof-lifting, joyful activities, we will use the ancient practise of our sacred voice, to create a deep spiritual connection with the world around us. We will reintroduce the power of unity and love and activate the process of shedding the cages and boxes of social conditioning, so you can let your native self be heard again. Enwrapped in a primal sounds of, drums, rattles and the ancient voices of our ancestors, we will stand side by side with all life, to manifest a meaningful change and bring healing to our Human Kingdom and the Kingdom of Nature.  Join us on this shamanic day, full of healing, connection, manifestation and primal vibes to sing ourselves into creation of the better World.

Day 5 At One with Earth On this final day, the time has come to merge with the Great Mother in honour and deepest respect. On this day, we won’t look for comfort. This is the time when we reap the results of our newly acquired outlook, and we will look to unite with Mother Earth like never before. It’s a time to embody our newly awakened inner wilderness and offer it fully back to the Earth. Surrounded by the sound of drums, we will let go of our "domesticated" selves to become one with Mother Nature. Tangibly and physically connected in a ceremonial space, we will step onto the path of meaningful change. Come and walk with us on this magical path.
