Earthwalk Open House Weekends are formated with great flexibility to respond to the moment and the small group of participants that are attending. I have a medicine bag and maps that are a great help for the journey. The purpose is self knowlege and the evolution of consciousness. The benefits are more life, more love, more light.
Nature is a mirror and teacher, as are our relationships and the current state of our life. Our earthwalk is a school for the evolution of consciousness. When we understand how to cooperate with this journey, it becomes very dynamic and profound.
Retreats here are always about following the flow and being amazed at what is revealed. Working through Eckhart Tolle's portal's to now and with the amazing wisdom of the Pathwork Guide, among others, people are supported in self-discovery and Self-unfolding, connecting more fully to soul, spirit and daily guidance. Brethwork is a kind of contemporary Shamanic Journey using evocative music and connected breathing to increase the energy and produces an altered state of consciousness with access to areas of your greater being. It helps us journey into areas of our Soul we don't usually access in our everyday state. This work is a form of gently altering our state of consciousness through breath and music to invoke a spiritual experience.
The Art of Soul Whispering and Living with Everyday Guidance is the umbrella under which I work with people individually and in groups. It is what I teach so that each person can learn how to reap the fruits of each moment of life just as it is. Classes and group process in this course, are offered at open house retreats.
Medicine Lodge: Each season I offer a "sweat" lodge ceremony that is a powerful way to cleanse what is no longer useful to us as we grow and change over the seasons of our lives. Just as the seasons are always renewing themselves, it is useful for us to participate in this transformation.
Using the natural alchemy of earth air fire and water, this ceremony becomes the sacred space/time for supporting the movement needed for balance and wholeness, a time for prayer, praise and singing, completion, releasing, renewing and rebirthing. Held each season of the year. See link for more information and the dates for the next lodge.
Each retreat draws from various components of my "medicine bag" and it often depends on the moment, the weather, and the inspiration of guidance in each retreat. Below is a list of some of the other activities and process that are offered here.

These retreats are done ala carte with donations requested for each supported session ($25-35) you partake of during your time here. The sessions are segments of time between meals during the course of the weekend. There is usually a Saturday morning, afternoon, evening and Sunday Morning Session offered. You can come for a day, half day or stay overnight for the weekend. Meals can be provided or you can bring your own. I can accommodate most budgets and for a donation feel free to just come and enjoy the land.
