The workshop will cover everything from the basic history of medicine bags, the intuitive process while making them, adorning and placing sacred objects within the bag and the healing properties that reveal themselves. 

We will discuss intuition and how to widen your own for healing purposes, how stones communicate, and how the spiritual and emotional medicine you are needing becomes available to you as you work with your wider self. We will touch upon how we can empower others when we open our hearts to our own healing work and begin sharing this with compassion as well as the shamanic channeling that comes through in my process making these bags. 

"As a young girl Diana began learning sacred Native American traditions and has continued honoring this all her life. Diana researched immensely into Native American culture while achieving her masters degree and found that her draw to the culture had a connection to her heart and soul. After receiving permission from a member of the Yaqui tribe to make the medicine bags she began only a few years ago in this new found healing work."

Judy Jarvis is a certified Homeopath, massage therapist, biofield tuning practitioner and essential oil enthusiast. I have been studying with two  acupuncturists for several years  exploring and learning the concepts of how the essential oils balance and create harmony in our being. 

This is a workshop to explore essential oils looking through the fascinating  lens of Chinese medicine. The 5 elements of wood - liver/gallbladder, fire - heart/pericardiam, earth - spleen/stomach, metal - lung/ large intestine, water - kidneys/bladder are a unique way to look at your own being and it's imbalances. We will explore a few essential oil's from each element and look at them in terms of regulating energy, warming, cooling, ridding dampness, tonifying,  sedating and calming the shen. I will bring the oils and you can get a sense of the different energies and how they feel in your body and spirit.  

Cost for this workshop is $10.00

With Kirk Jones, Certified Master Sound Healer, International Academy of Sound Healing.

In this 2-hour introductory workshop we will go over theory, history, benefits, do live demonstrations, and have a live sound meditation!
Sound therapy can be profoundly healing for nearly all common complaints because it works at the roots of disease and discomfort - vibrating away stagnant energy, tension, and cellular toxins while allowing the body to come into harmonious alignment. In this way, it can be used as a preventative or a cure.
The beautiful tones considered sacred by many Eastern traditions act to relax the body and mind, bringing us into a deep meditative state where we can let go of the day to day and gain clarity on our paths. Combined with the energetic and cellular clearing, sound therapy is often experienced as a reawakening.
Come see for yourself how easy it is to free yourself, friends, and loved ones of the most painful and troublesome health concerns and see how easy it is to relax, reset, and reawaken! 

Cost is $25.

In this workshop we will explore the practices that amplify the radiance of inner beauty and prosperity through tantric yoga practices including mantra (vibration), mudra (hand positioning), pranayama (stirring prana – or vital life force- with breath), dharana (focused attention),  dhyana (meditative flow), and samadhi, as a state of oneness where the practitioner merges with his or her point of focus.

Our breath is the sacred key to unlocking the depths of our own psyche, the unconscious and our full capacity to feel our stored emotions. Breathwork is a simple and profound practice that opens up the gateway for deep cathartic healing through simple breathing techniques. The practice is typically done laying down and in a safe environment where one is free to express themselves through making sound. Often times physical sensations arise in the body and participants may feel a change in temperature (so bring a blanket) as well as experience an intense emotional release. This journey begins with the breath and is carried on as a personal exploration. The sound of the singing bowls help to steep into the body and unlock resistance as well as melt you into safe space and deep peace.

Some people experience visions, insight on past life karma, this lifetime trauma release, states of bliss, physical sensations and major breakthroughs. Please come with an open mind.

The Breathwork Experience is not suggested for those with heart problems or high blood pressure. 

Maximum of 10 people, suggested donation $18.
