Practicing the Shamanic Journey
First Tuesday of the Month
starting January 3, 2012
through December, 2012
7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
at Visions and Dreams, Costa Mesa
 |
|
Many of us have learned the invaluable tool of journeying to the Lower,
Middle, or Upper Worlds of non-ordinary reality in order to meet our
Spirit Helpers. This visionary
method is used world-wide to seek answers to problems, to obtain
physical, emotional, and spiritual healing, and to restore power,
purpose, and well-being into our lives. On our own, however, it can
sometimes be challenging to practice shamanic journeying, especially
when we wish to do so with others.
If you would like to continue using the Michael Harner method of journeying (www.shamanism.org)
for yourself, and/or for others, in a like-minded group setting, please
consider joining us on the first Tuesday of the month for our drumming
circle. In addition to journeying, we'll also be discussing shamanic
topics that emerge from the group, or from events happening to or in our
local and larger communities.
So hope to see you there!
