Are you seeking a profound connection to the natural world and a deeper understanding of your own place within it? Are you yearning for mindfulness, self-discovery, and a sense of belonging that resonates with your soul? Do you want to explore creative practice within a like minded soul-centred community? If so, our three-part workshop series is your gateway to a life-changing journey!

​

Class 1: Awakening your senses: Cultivating Mindfulness and Wonder in Nature This module introduces nature-based mindfulness, journaling, and creativity. Participants learn to awaken their senses (sight, sound, smell, touch, taste) to cultivate wonder and connection. The core activity involves selecting and engaging with a "sit spot" for daily mindfulness practice and journaling, aiming to develop intimacy with their local environment.

​

Class 2: Unearthing the Mythic Self Focusing on "Stories, Ancestry, and Belonging," this module explores how personal narratives, family origins, and ancestral lands shape identity. Participants engage in an "ANCESTRAL MAP - ART PRACTICE & JOURNALLING" activity to creatively represent their heritage. The session also examines influential childhood stories and their archetypal patterns, with homework involving the creation of a "spirit house, or altar."

​

Class 3: Rooted in Belonging: Embracing Your Local Landscape and Vision This final module aims to help participants root themselves in their local landscape and envision their future. It includes a "KNOW YOUR PLACE Journalling" activity to deepen understanding of their immediate environment. The concept of a personal "calling" is explored through a "Vision for Future beings" journaling exercise, mandala and a guided "YOUR CALLING RITUAL AND MEDITATION JOURNEY," integrating instinct, emotion, and reason.
