The Indigenous Journey Intensive
2025-02-14 10:00 - 18:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Novato (108D Oliva Ct.)
Indigenous Medicine is one of the most ancient Paths known and traversed by humanity for the acquisition of wisdom, knowledge and healing for one’s community, nation, planet and self. Via the vehicles of Indigenous song, movement, Prayer and music, we journey to and explore landscapes and Sacred geographies that Medicine People from diverse cultures have frequented for millennia. Undertaken with specific intent and purpose, we encounter and acquaint ourselves with the Spirits and powerful denizens of these realms- our Allies, Benefactors and Guardians – to learn and partake of the Medicine they have to offer. It is an experience steeped in Spirit, Mystery and Magic, presented in a Traditional manner and provides the foundation upon which to embark on the Path. Additionally, we will address the importance and necessity of decolonizing modern “shamanism” and protecting Sacred Plant Medicines.

No prerequisites – everyone welcome.

In this intensive participants will receive:

An understanding of various indigenous relationships to Ancestral Realms

Instruction in the mechanics of effective Journeying (without Sacred Plant Medicines)

Direct contact and introduction to one’s Helping Spirits & Ancestors
An appreciation of the requirements and responsibilities to become a Traditional Healer/Medicine person
Tools to become an ally in decolonizing modern “shamanism” & protecting Sacred Plant Medicines

Soul Retrieval Intensive
2025-02-15 10:00 - 2025-02-16 18:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | CA
We dwell in the Quickening, a time when life is accelerating. The potential for spiritual evolution or dissolution is equally great. Depression, what shamans refer to as being dis-spirited, runs rampant in our society. Medicine People, who “see” everything as alive, imbued with Spirit, with Soul, regard those afflicted as suffering from soul loss. Trauma, illness, addiction and disease may also contribute to a loss of soul. In this workshop, Indigenous tools are employed to assist the practitioner in understanding the origins, identifying the symptoms and providing treatment for this condition. In addition, Indigenous techniques and strategies for remaining in the eye of the tornado and preventing soul loss in one’s personal life are revealed. Prerequisite: The Indigenous Journey or prior experience with journeywork.
