"My weekend workshop with Awake In Joy was nothing short of life changing. Personally, I have shifted patterns of behavior and thinking in myself that I have struggled to shift for many years. My sense of accomplishment and peace with who I am is new found and delightful."

Year One Modern Shamanism Medicine Wheel: Peruvian Shamanism & Egyptian Alchemy
January 11th - 13th 2013

An intimate group that will meet for four 3-day weekend workshops during the year. This is a four-part immersion training in shamanism. This training is for those on a personal quest as well as practitioners wanting to gain tools for shamanic healing. You will be led through the four directions. Each direction offers a lesson for each phase of our lives. Every weekend is powerful in itself and once the energy of the direction is engaged it works with you for 3 months until we meet again. Wherever you are along the spiral of ascending consciousness the energies will activate what is most important for you. This is an advanced experiential journey for those who are ready to dive deep into the depths of discovery as a quantum being. Personal empowerment and self-authority will deepen throughout this exploration. You will expand your ability to travel within the Shamanic realms; providing personal healing, growth and expansion. We will journey, connect with nature, meditate, chant, journal, and share personal discovery. Cost $400.00 for each weekend workshop. Deposit of $200.00 due to reserve your space in the circle. (3 other weekend dates will be chosen by the group)
