The Medicine Wheel
May 26, 27
Cost $150
The Medicine Wheel teaches us that life is continuous, without beginning or end. ‘Medicine’ means power or knowledge, while the ‘wheel’ represents the circle of life. Hence the Medicine Wheel is considered to be a circle of knowledge that gives one power over one’s life. In this workshop we will focus on how ancient shamanic principles can foster the development of inner awareness and self-healing. As we face the different directions on the Medicine Wheel and invite the powers of those directions into our lives, we feel our connection with the Earth, with Spirit, and with our Selves. Learn the art of shamanic journeying, connect to your animal guides, change negative beliefs through thought form recapitulation, and clarify your intent for the next stage of your journey. A sweat lodge ceremony will be held in June to round out these teachings.
This workshop is recommended for those who wish to do the Vision Quest in the Fall.
Facilitated by Liddy Flewwelling and Kim Martin.

Vision Quest
September 1-3, 2012
A Vision Quest is a unique opportunity to commune with your Higher Self, while supported by the power of Nature, the Medicine Wheel and your Spirit Guides. It is a time to discover your gifts, your purpose and what you have come to do.
A Vision Quest asks us to leave our everyday world behind so we can come back to our Selves. This involves creating a Medicine Wheel and inviting the powers of the Universe to sit with us in council. As we enter the beauty and harmony of Nature we begin naturally to come into balance and harmony.
For information on the Vision Quest, see ‘Ceremonies’.
Guided by Liddy Flewwelling and Adriana Engert
Shamanic Recapitulation
Fall 2012
Recapitulation is a valuable tool that has been used by shamanic practitioners to heal long-standing issues of imbalance. This simple shamanic healing technique takes you back to the time before the pattern of disharmony began. Recapitulating these strands of memory helps you get to the bottom of the conflicts that underlie them. These underlying conflicts must be resolved in order to silence our ‘internal dialogue’ and for lasting change to occur. Following the path back to the time before the pattern began brings new awareness, which can bring resolution and a new sense of well-being.
We will begin with a brief overview of the Medicine Wheel and basic Shamanic principles to set the stage for our recapitulation work. This workshop is appropriate for anyone wishing to work on the patterns of disharmony in their lives. No prior knowledge of Shamanism is required. Please feel free to invite your friends.
Check ‘Blog’ to learn more about Recapitulation.
Teachers: Liddy Flewwelling and Adriana Engert
