Have you ever communicated with a plant? Have you ever been healed by the Spirit of a plant? Have you ever wondered how such things are even possible?
‘Plants have long been primary teachers for those who travel deep into the heart of the world, for those who seek the soul teaching that only the wild can bring’. Stephen Buhner.
At this time, we have become disconnected from both the natural world and from Spirit. Our sense of separateness is at the root of our imbalance whether physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually. It is time to realize that we are part of Nature, not separate from it!
Plants are sentient beings who have much to teach us about living in harmony with each other and the natural world. Once you begin to merge with a plant’s spirit, it begins to communicate with you, opening you up to higher dimensions of consciousness, and helping you to wake up and remember who you are!
When we speak about ‘plant spirits’ we are referring to the consciousness that exists at the center of each plant species.
In order to connect to the Spirit of a plant we need to open all our senses to take in their messages and healing.
‘When treated with honor, respect, and loving kindness, their teachings and guidance are limitless!’ Pam Montgomery
In this two-day workshop Liddy Flewwelling will introduce you to the remarkable healing potential of the plants that exist all around us.
Date: Saturday, August 12th, from 11 AM to 9 PM and
Sunday, August 13th, from 11 AM to 5 PM.
Cost: Saturday Only - $120 in advance
Saturday & Sunday - $220 in advance
Early Bird: $187
At the Door: $150 per day
(Day one is a requirement for Day two)
Rufus and Dinora are delighted to host Liddy for the second year in a row, after a powerful and transformative workshop last summer.
Day 1 will focus on plant communication. You will learn how to connect deeply with a plant ‘in the field’, and journey to the ‘Spirit of the Plant’ through a shamanic drum journey. You will have the opportunity to swim in a private, spring-fed kettle lake, and explore the beautiful fields and forested trails. In the evening we will share a potluck meal. We will complete the day with a Sacred Fire ceremony and drum and sing around the Fire.
On Day 2 you will have the opportunity to receive a healing from a Plant Spirit that can support you in your current life situation. After a delicious vegan lunch (consisting of a coconut cauliflower curry with rice, a mixed green salad with a homemade garlic & balsamic dressing) you will experience a walking meditation through a Chartres Labyrinth, for some final guidance, before closing our ceremony in the late afternoon.
Participants who wish to spend the night are invited to camp for $25 per person. There are a few bedrooms available for rent in the main house as well, on a first come, first served basis - please email Rufus at rufusglassco@gmail.com to find out more.
PLEASE NOTE: WE CAN ONLY ACCEPT A MAXIMUM OF 15 PARTICIPANTS. If you wish to join us PLEASE DON’T DELAY AS YOU MAY BE DISAPPOINTED (WE ARE EXPECTING TO SELL OUT).
