An Animist Winter Solstice Ceremony

Being in right relationship with energy and spirit

What if in place of harnessing energy we learned to simply BE WITH energy we feel is powerful, without claiming it, without harnessing it, without taking?

May Integrity be at the heart of all of our interactions.

Non-appropriation pledge:

My Intuitive Healing work and spiritual practices are anchored in my own ancestral healing traditions blended with western techniques, principles and modalities including animism, intuition, animal communication, embodiment, breathwork, meditation, and inner heart-centric journeying and meditation.

Out of a profound respect for indigenous peoples across the world, I do not practice or teach healing or spiritual modalities that are not a part of my own culture and ancestry.
