“Forces will have been set in motion beyond the reckoning of the senses. Sequences of events from the corners of the world will draw gradually together, and miracles of coincidence will bring the inevitable to pass. . .” – Joseph Campbell
The decision to commit to being your Authentic Self and follow Your Bliss, as Joseph Campbell would say, is a heroic step of courage. The reason I say this is as soon as you decide to ‘Take up the Mantle’ you may also find Old Issues surfacing and Personal/Professional blockages emerging, to test your dedication. Therefore, I strongly encourage you to travel this path with a peer partner. Additionally, I want to create a small sacred circle around you.
I’ve done substantial American Indian retreats on everything from Vision Quests, to Sweat Lodges, to Medicine Wheels, and more . I’ve followed Cherokee, Lakota and Hopi disciplines because of their emphasis on Mother Nature and incredible reverence for all living systems. You and I will often begin our events honoring the Four Directions, integrating Smudging, and Talking Stick because this work has Multiple Dimensional meaning. It is: Multi-Cultural, Multi-Disciplined and Multi-Sensory.
Healing into wholeness is open to showing emotions, which flow freely here. This paradigm, though flexible, has a confident presence and consequently, we’re playful enough to laugh at ourselves. Last but not least gratitude, forgiveness, compassion and genius are absorbed easily here.
