Choice of staying this entire week, to explore the land with friends or family, and have individual sessions.
Classes are scheduled for Thursday- Sunday.
As the Earth’s Vibration is Rising, We are being asked to embody a higher degree of Light stored within our Cells. This requires the release of lower vibrations that have not allowed us to live in our full embodiment or on our highest “timeline”. Through connecting with this ancient, lavic land, we are finding a way to tap into the Earth’s inherent strength, wisdom and beauty to do so. Through connecting with our bodies through dance, sacred plants, and specialized healing sound, we are feeling our vibration rise and feeling safe and held by each other in this process. Our theme Is releasing what no longer serves us to open up to the infinite love waiting for us, from the Earth!
Thursday//
5pm
Gather together as a Group to meet, and make intention for time together!
Connect with the land through connecting with the plants and making a forest grid. Moving with the plants, and with our intentions, drawing our intentions, and drinking tea together. Time for journaling, and resetting our nervous system in this ancient land! What does the Earth have to communicate with us?
