This class is designed for those who feel ready to open more fully to the natural beauty and power of their singing voices, (and who may feel some fear around being seen and heard in this sometimes vulnerable birthing process). This circle is a safe space to gently coax your voice out of hiding and experience sound moving through your body in new and life-giving ways. Through guided toning/visualization practices, playful improvisation, and simple harmony songs, you will come into contact with the pleasure and freedom of your own voice.   Birthing Your Wild Voice will be shared by Hanna Leigh ...

Blood sugar balance is a foundational process regulated by the hormonal system, and is a result of what, how, and when we eat. The hormonal system helps to maintain homeostasis in the body, and is always striving for this balance. When out of balance, inflammation takes root, which leads to dis-ease. When we approach hormone balance with blood sugar in mind, we can create a strong foundation for optimal health. Today we are facing an epidemic of blood sugar dis-regulation showing up in most chronic inflammatory diseases, including diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and alzheimers. Understanding the foundations of how our hormonal system works, is essential to changing the collective path we are on today. We’ll take a deep dive into the hormonal system as a whole, with particular...

As human beings, in today’s modern world, we can’t loose sight that we are animals. The more we live our lives with the elements in mind, tuning into the rhythms of light and dark, adjusting to the seasons, connecting to nature, and creating habits that bring the body into balance, the more we can lower inflammation and create a life that includes health and vitality. Circadian habits are the habits of our ancestors and can be incorporated in our modern day lives. How and when we move, eat, sleep, breathe, and live all make up the whole of who we are and how well our body and spirit can function. We’ll dive into ancestral habits that are aligned with our biochemistry and hormonal system. The more we can...

This experiential workshop is designed to provide participants a space to address climate distress and to build resilience. Throughout the workshop you will experience embodied, connective exercises and guidance around a collective visioning forward. In the first half, we identify climate related feelings. Modeled after the climate cafe process, the intention is to bear witness to each other. We discuss ways to manage distress and navigate the complexity of this time. In part two we provide clear tools for building personal and community resilience. Some tools include the climate feelings wheel, climate aware interventions to navigate identified feelings, lifestyle and values alignment, and community support. We then go beyond coping skills to embody stepping into a regenerative Earth society. To close we will enjoy a group meditation...

  What would you create if you were truly uninhibited in your process? Tapping into the infinite wellspring of creation means facing the repressive tones and imprints we carry about what it means to create and how we relate to creation and ourselves as creators. These become obstructions that our life force has to move through in order to express itself, which dilutes the potency of what is being birthed through us. It also causes us to reach too far outside of ourselves for inspiration, and our expression becomes an imitation of what already is instead of what is authentically ours. Together we will move through our inhibitions and rekindle the eternal flame of creation from within, while learning how to hold safe space for our fire to...

    Singing is all about listening to the relationships seen and unseen around us all the time. In this workshop we will explore how to use the dreamtime to bring your own unique songs into the world. We will explore our relationship to songs and dreams through mini constellations. We will use constellation and dreamwork to connect to the ancestors we have that were song carriers. We will use the waking dream to listen to the songs coming through. And each person will leave with a dream practice they can take home to continue the connection between dreaming and singing. No singing, dreaming, or constellation experience is required. Constellation is a somatic group healing modality that allows us to look at systems at the energetic and soul...

COOLING THE CLIMATE WITH RAIN GARDENS: TRANSFORMING GARDENS INTO EARTH GUARDIANS Gather in celebration and honor for our sacred waters and activate the rewilding of your water resource footprint. Current communities are often built around quickly collecting, concentrating, and conveying away any unused water that comes into our land and home. Gaia does the opposite by slowing down water’s flow through holding, dispersion, infiltration, and reuse to maintain healthy ecosystems and their dependence on clean water for life. Learn how visible stormwater infrastructure and water conservation and recycling strategies allow us to live with the land in a way that simultaneously enhances planetary and societal health. While gathering, we will review the cycles of water on the planet and scale our focus smaller until we reach one accessible water system that has proven to be simple...
