Shamanic Gratitude & Grounding Ceremony
I am hosting a Peaceful Shamanic Ceremony to help us feel more well balanced, grounded and connected to our Spiritual sides.The cost is $20, the class is 75 minutes long. After an opening ceremonial ritual we will relax our minds with a brief Shamanic Journey, allowing our brain waves and CNS to transcend into an altered state of consciousness of creation and imagination, but not sleep. The last portion of our sacred time will be spent socializing & creating a power object made of materials (provided for you) from nature, that you can take home to reminisce. Shamanism follows the path of the heart & encourages us to live blissfully and in harmony with the earth recognizing that all life is sacred.
