SUMMARY:Introduction to Shamanic Journeying: Connect with Your Power Animal
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Shamanic Journeying:\nConnect with Your Power Animal \n“Shamanic journeying is the inner art of traveling to the invisible worlds beyond ordinary reality in order to retrieve information for change in any area of our lives\, from spirituality and health to work and relationships” (Sandra Ingerman\, 2007). \nPower animals are an elemental component of shamanism and all shamans work with power animals to help bring about spiritual\, physical and emotional healing at the soul or spirit level. One or more power animals may help us throughout our lives. All of us have access to our power animals and our power animals want to work with us! \nIn this workshop\, you will be guided to independently travel to the shamanic lower world through a meditative journeying state and meet your power animal. We will also discover the various ways to work with power animals in daily life and to assist in understanding specific intentions or gifts they have to offer. \nIt is recommended you bring any items that will help you descend into this state of consciousness. Such materials can include an eye covering\, pillow\, blanket\, mat\, and wearing comfortable clothing. Cushions\, yoga mats\, and blankets will be available. \nIn your shamanic journey space\, you may gain information from the lower world spirits and your power animal. Bringing a journal can be valuable to record the messages received for further integration and referencing. \nNo prior shamanic or journeying experience necessary. All levels of shamanic practice are welcome! Email Sherry @ sherrysolchnp@gmail.com with questions. \nSpace limited to 12 participants\, preregistration required by following this link: https://forms.gle/bjvX7HqCAhXo2TK38 \nExchange $30

SUMMARY:Set Free & Rise
DESCRIPTION:The end of the year is near. As one chapter ends another one begins. In this unique 90 minutes experience Somatic Breath-work\, Sound\, Vibration and Frequency therapies are combined. Somatic Breath-work is an inward journey\, where you explore and encounter who you truly are at the root of your soul through breath. Transmuting what no longer serves you so that you can make decisions in your life from a clear perspective. Synchronizing back to your heart beat. As we move through life we have traumatic experiences and those experiences get stored in our bodies and energetic fields. Through breath and sound we are able to transmute those emotions and receive clarity to be present in our relationships\, our passions and in our lives. Sound/Vibration allows every cell in your body to be cleansed\, restored and rejuvenated creating an invigorating encounter in the journey of life allowing true healing to happen. If you are ready to transform and create space to reconstruct the life of your dreams this event is for you.

SUMMARY:How We Healed / How We Heal
DESCRIPTION:How We Healed / How We Heal\, A Gathering Facilitated by Paul W. Gerzon \nLife can be wonderful. Our human capacity for love\, enjoyment\, and wisdom is endless; and the love a person can feel for other human beings\, for nature\, and for life itself\, is beautiful. Experiencing all this is less likely to happen\, however\, if we have not healed emotional wounds; if we have not learned that “the mind is a great servant but a terrible master”; and if we don’t know how to love ourselves\, including our bodies. \nToday’s gathering is about being more whole. \nIn part one\, we will talk about what healing is: what do we mean by that word? Then those who are moved to will have the time and space to share about what healing they have experienced\, and by what methods\, circumstances\, and / or experiences. \nIn part two\, we will generate a list of what seems to be necessary for healing. We will do that as a collective mind by noticing our own experiences\, from our in-the-moment thinking\, and from what we’ve learned from videos\, from books\, from peers\, and / or from professionals who have been helpful. \nPlease come if you wish to explore this subject! \nSuch gatherings can accelerate our individual learning and growing\, as well as provide “people medicine” for everyone present. \n  \nPersonal note: \nI am grateful for the healing I have experienced. In my case\, growing up\, my head energy was loved and supported. My thoughts were welcome. In contrast\, my heart energy was not supported\, and emotions of any were not welcomed and certainly were not mirrored. No one in my family or at school taught me any emotional awareness. \nMy life is enormously different now that much childhood wounding is healed. An important shift for me was when I could see my parents as glasses half full\, instead of half empty. Through certain healing contexts and experiences\, I came to see them as being perfect (if you’ll excuse that overworked word) exactly as they were! \nI stopped judging them. That led to stopping judging myself\, and that led to not judging anybody. I live a lighter and happier life now. \n(By the way\, not judging anybody does not mean “making no distinctions” or “not seeing differences”!) \n

SUMMARY:Mai-Tri Session
DESCRIPTION:Mohanji Foundation is organising a session of MaiTri Method\, a deep energy cleansing\, healing and harmonising process on Dec 26th at Common Street Spiritual Center.\n\n \nMai-Tri Method is a profound method of deep cleansing and harmonizing in which deep-seated subconscious blockages are removed\, even from the subtlest layer of our existence – the causal body – where seeds of karmic impressions are stored.\n \nWhile the cleansing reaches deep into the energy records\, it is important to note that Mai-Tri Method does not interfere with the destiny aspect of karma (as this is what has been chosen at the soul level\, be it pleasant or unpleasant to our mind).\n\nThe actual word meaning of “Mai-tri” is friendship\, companionship\, collaboration\, or simply togetherness. “Mai” means mother. The word mother represents unconditional love\, protection\, care\, consistency of emotions\, continuity\, life\, creation etc. Mother also represents levitation\, as in the womb experience. Womb represents the creation as well as healing.\n\nThe program is scheduled between 4-7pm. You could register and select one time slot\, which suits you. The duration of the session is 30mins. There is a suggested donation of $30\, of which 50% would be used to feed the needy.\n\nTo register\, please click the link below:\nhttps://tinyurl.com/Mai-Tri-Registration\n\nFor any questions please write to mohanjifamilyma@gmail.com
