Seed of Creation: Exploring the Seat of our Power Within a dominant culture that is so conflicted about reproductive rights, it’s not surprising that many of us feel disconnected from our creative potential. Traditional knowledge understands the pelvic region as the seat of our power: a source of creation that connects us with ancestors, with our potential, and with the great mystery. This is where manifestation seeds, where we can draw upon the resilience of our lineages, and where we hope to heal insecurity. During this workshop we will explore ways to work with Plant Spirit Medicine to connect, restore, and strengthen this sacred part of our bodies. We will unpack ways to work energetically with herbal medicine to clear a path for a spiritual, emotional, and...
Learn how to make meaning from your nightmares! When we turn towards rather than away from what scares us, we find an opportunity to face the shadow parts of ourselves and this world, and thereby close the gap between who we are and who we’d like to be. We will journey together through myth, visualization, partner work and discourse, and find ourselves walking back into the dream portal to encounter the face on the shadow side of the mirror. This is an experiential class in demystifying nightmares and providing practical support in accessing our inherent strength and confidence with which to face the shadow. If we want a healed and whole world rooted in love, we must first be willing to dream it. Thus, we courageously start...
Earthenware is a dialogue with the elements; listening to and learning from the ways of fire, the personalities of clay, and the alchemy of color and form. When we shape wild clays, made like us of bones and blood, and offer our creations to the fire, our intentions are transformed and fortified. Pit firing foraged clay vessels is practiced by many cultures around the world, each with rich pottery traditions, cuisines, and histories. With the prevalence of modern technological methods and commercial clay companies, the inherent connection between ceramics and the land has become abstracted. The very use of wild clays in this craft can be a profoundly enriching way to connect with the landscape we call home and literally build relationship with it. We will gather...

Imagine a group 30-100+ folks in a circle, singing… together. The song leader teaches easy to learn songs in an acappella style and the group echos them back. These songs are sung together collectively as invitations to move stagnated emotions in the body and to be in our bodies as we notice what arises for us as we sing together. Ahlay offers a 2 hour container invoking connection that serves as a catalyst to discuss + sit with taboo topics in our culture and movements for collective liberation. Participants may audio record these songs and share/sing them outside the circle as a supplement to any craft or daily life activity. Songs for Grief & unknown will be shared by Alexandra "Ahlay" Blakley" ...

In this workshop, we will explore the history of tattooing, as well as piercing and other adornment practices from around the globe. Body modification has been, and still is, a prominent part of almost every indigenous culture. We will talk about different methods of tattooing & piercing, materials used, ceremonies, symbols, patterns, and revivals. My goal is to help folx reconnect with their ancestral roots through body adornment and deepen their understanding of tattoo, not as a trend, but as an ancient and sacred practice. I hope that people walk away from this workshop more knowledgeable about the tattoo traditions of their people and hopefully rekindle a connection to those who came before us. Nicolette Torres will be hosting the workshop 'Tattoo Traditions Around the World'...

The uterus is our body's internal compass, returning the uterus to its natural position can not only bring relief from painful menses, but can...
