Singing in the Dark Times
7th Celtic Reunion with Tom Cowan
April 19-22
Pierce Cedar Creek Nature Center,
Hastings, Mi
Okay. However. It seems the dark times also require some singing
about the bright times.
Celtic poets had skills and characteristics we would consider
shamanic. They had visions from journeying into the Otherworld and
were able to describe them and share them with others. They enjoyed
a mystical relationship with the natural world of landscapes,
elements, and animals. They had companions from the spirit world.
They were healers.
TO REGISTER: Cost
is $785 for a single and $740 for a double.

In In this class we will be learning Soul Retrieval, Restoration of
Lost Power and Extraction.
Soul Retrieval is one of the primary techniques of shamanic practice
and healing. In this course you will learn the classic ceremony of
facilitating soul retrieval with clients. The Soul Retrieval
process will be explored comprehensively to include how to
communication with clients, ethics, possible healing crises post
retrieval, how to integrate lost energies for full restoration after
retrieval, and more. We will discuss issues that may arise after SR,
how to help your clients fully integrate the returned parts and how
to live life in fuller and more balanced ways.
Extraction training teaches participants how to work and
merge with a power animal or teacher to remove thought forms that
may be causing imbalance or illness in their client. In
this class you will learn the causes of spiritual intrusions,
misplaced energy, that needs to be extracted; how intrusions
manifest as illnesses and imbalances; classic shamanic methods to
perceive and to safely and effectively remove them; and how to
neutralize and transmute them for the health and well being of your
clients.
This will be a small, intensive and experiential
group. You

retrieval.

Cultivating Power and Presence in Turbulent Times
Society for Shamanic Practice Midwest Conference
with Tom Cowan, Genie Hobbs, Kate Durda, Stephanie Tighe and more!
September 13-16, 2018
Kellogg Biological Station, Hickory Corners, Mi.
This is an exciting opportunity for the MidWest!
The Society for Shamanic Practice (SSP) and Spirit Weavers are
collaborting to provide SSP's annual conference in 'our' home
territory, Michigan.
Walking the shamanic path requires that we artfully transform the
dark - both within and without. A principle of shamanism is:
Fear drains your power; shamanic practice builds your power. In this
conference, through the practices of remembering and releasing,
reweaving and renewing, we will restore and amplify our personal
light.
We need new ways of working together,
which we will explore during this conference.
In a time of rampant fear - and a time in
which fear is used to manipulate the populace - we need to build our
power, so that we can be more immune to the manipulations and so
that we can make decisions and take actions from our own authentic
center - connected deeply to Immensity, Wonder, Creativity,
Truth and Love. If we are to be of service in this world, as
teachers, healers or leaders, we need these powers as our foundation
and fuel.
The SSP Midwest conference will offer
teachings led by local, national and internationally known shamanic
teachers. You'll enjoy relevant, practical and powerful teachings as
well as beautiful group ceremonies to lift you spirit. You'll come
away from this conference stronger, refreshed, and with practical
skills that you can apply to your life and work.
This makes their work accessible to many more practitioners and at
the same time provides the opportunity for us to go deeper,
and share with each other our experience, skills and knowlege.
Stay tuned for more! We'll be working with our community to
dream into this event!
