These are the workshops that Spirit Weavers offered in 2010.
November 2010
November 27th, 2010 Saturday 12
noon - 5pm in
the Lansing, Grand Ledge area.
Class
is a pre- requisite for all other advanced Shamanic training and workshops
offered. This will be an experiential workshop, based upon the Foundation for Shamanic Studies (www.Shamanism.org) “Core Shamanism” approach (those aspects of Shamanism that were common cross-culturally, and central to all Shamanic practice). You will learn a practice to shift your your brain wave activity into more optimal states for healing. The benefits of one type of brain activity, the alpha brainwave, are the ability to relax and keep the mind on idle when not focused on specific task, heightened feelings of well-being and euphoria, increased creativity, and deep emotional healing. Yet it has been found that 20 % of the population does not engage in alpha brain waves. Also, another benefit of shamanic practice is that it allows us to engage in deep levels of self-healing, particularly on the subconscious level. You will learn methods for journeying to discover, and study with your own individual spiritual teachers in non-ordinary reality, a classic step in shamanic practice. Bring a water bottle, snacks, journal, frame drum or rattle if you have them (I have extras if not!) Please wear comfortable clothing, warm socks, & bring a bandanna or eye cover. Bring rattles/frame drums if you have them. Since often people prefer to journey while lying on the floor, you may want to bring a mat to lie on and a blanket to cover up with.
3rd Annual Shamans'
Walk & Healing Circle
We first experienced the Shaman’s Walk years ago with Canadian friends in Windsor, Canada & Brenda Atkinson, who initiated this event. We attended several Shaman's Walks over the 'border' and always found them to be a powerful personal and community event! Now, we are celebrating our 3rd annual walk in mid-Michigan for the shamanic community near and far! With this "Walk", we step up to our responsibilities as people of Spirit, who recognize our Oneness, and who embrace the idea that
"We are
the ones we have been waiting for..."
Come join us to re-commit ourselves to being all we can be, to 'DREAM the Good Dream', honor and protect Mother Earth and ALL Life, and to celebrate our connection to each other and all things with intense drumming, dancing, journeying, sharing and networking. You are welcome to come with an open heart and a desire to experience the ecstasy of a large Shamanic Community. SHAMANS' BAZAAR This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase handmade rattles, medicine bags, shamanic jewelry, gear bags, drums, books, cd's, and other items! Come early to browse!

Medicine for the Earth including material from "Healing with Spiritual Light" with Kate Durda, M.A & Stephanie Tighe,MSW May 1-2, 2010 Saturday 10am - 5pm, Sunday 9:30am - 4pm at Michigan Nature Conservancy, Bath, MI near Lansing http://www.MiWildlife.org Cost: pre-registered required: $100 if paid by April 26th. After April 26th $120 if space available.. Repeat entire workshop for only $35! Based upon Sandra Ingerman' work and book, MEDICINE for the EARTH. Kate & Stephanie have worked with Sandra extensively and have completed her MFE Teacher Training to present this work. For info about Sandy Ingerman and/or Medicine for the Earth, see www.shamanicvisions.com/ingerman.html and http://www.medicinefortheearth.com This weekend experiential training is based on the information in Medicine for the Earth . We experience how to transform personal and environmental pollution by learning how to transmute negative beliefs, attitudes, and energy which is generated by emotions. Transmutation works on the principal "As within, so without. As above, so below." Using a specific spiritual methodology, we will work together to restore harmony and balance in our exterior environment by creating positive change within ourselves. During this experiential training, we will use a powerful combination of guided meditation, shamanic journey work and ceremony, our work will focus on learning to transform physical, emotional and mental toxins that negatively affect our health and the health of Mother Earth. The process continues with learning how to work in cooperation with helping spirits and the spirits of the land as well as getting in touch with our own internal divine nature to create healing and transmutation. Other key elements and spiritual practices will also be explored which can be easily incorporated into daily life. These methods are necessary and helpful for transforming and transmuting environmental and personal toxins. In addition to shamanic journeying, meditation, toning , singing and movement will be utilized to help change states of consciousness and raise awareness. The work done as a group in collaboration with community and the spirits is truly a life transforming experience. Kate & Stephanie have worked with Sandra extensively and have completed her MFE Teacher Training to present this work. For info about Sandy Ingerman and/or Medicine for the Earth, see www.shamanicvisions.com/ingerman.html and http://www.medicinefortheearth.com It is recommended that you read Sandra Ingerman's Medicine for the Earth: How to Transform Personal and Environmental Toxins.
