Shamanic Journey Weekend w/ Ayal Hurst - Sep'.t 10th-12th
Integrating Your Inner Power and Balance
through Shamanic Exploration & Ceremony
During this special weekend, we will use ancient shamanic techniques and healing practices to explore the Divine Mysteries within ourselves and the Mysteries of the Universe. We will partake in magical shamanic journeys to realms of non-ordinary reality in order to integrate personal healing, insights, wonder, and wisdom. By doing so, we further our own evolution, and the evolution of the planet.This transformative weekend will offer a time to explore the mystical practice of Shamanism and Shamanic Journeying. We will travel to other realms of existence to receive Healing, Wisdom, Power, Insights, and Guidance.
You will journey to directly connect with Spirit helpers and Spirit guides. You will learn from them and be able to embody their inherent strengths, power, and gifts. You will discover how they work to enlighten you, to stabilize and steadfastly protect you - to create within you an amazing place of power, peace, and balance.
“The place of Mystery is the greatest place for transformation!”
