As we grapple with personal challenges, social upheaval, and ecological devastation, our holiday season – often diluted by commercialism – can fall short of offering a real sense of peace and the Sacred. Instead, many of us find ourselves feeling rushed, stressed and disconnected. How might we soothe our hearts and nourish our spirits as the world seems to grow more confusing with each day? Even amidst unprecedented difficulties, is it possible to step into a life of deep meaning, profound connection, and inspired action?
If you’ve been yearning to commune with Earth and Cosmos, to open up to the mystery and beauty of the spiritual realms, to experience devotional Indigenous music, and to share giggles with beloved community, you’re warmly invited to join us on Saturday, November 8 at Ashland Oasis for a gathering to help you root into the Sacred: that inexhaustible wellspring of support always flowing from Earth, other beings, our ancestors, and the magic of existence itself.
Together, we’ll explore practices to cultivate a loving, blissful, and joyful bond with the invisible realms of sacredness. By opening to gratitude, wonder, devotion, presence, and kinship, we can reconnect with the loving vibrations of the Cosmos and Quantum Field – lifting our spirits and stepping into a more authentic, nourishing, energizing, and purposeful way of living.
Sylvie will also share songs of devotion and ancestral Indigenous music on guitar – offered with deep honor and humility and played with permission granted by the Majé (Medicine Woman) of the Shanenawa and Chief of the Huni Kuin peoples of the Amazon, Brazil.
Our time together includes:
Let’s celebrate the Sacred together in this holiday season in an authentic, rooted, and inspired way. This is a rare opportunity to gather in person with a local community of like-hearted beings, to heal and reawaken the joy of belonging together within our natural and spiritual world.
We can’t wait to welcome you!
