Nature, Soul and Vision:
in an all day Sedona experience which combines:
--Vortex Tour
-- Earth and Sky Speaks to Us
--M ystical Nature Shamanic Journey Seminar
We explore the vortex areas and other power places, sacred sites in the area. We seek signs, sense the energies, infuse perception of power of place with myth, science and observing skills. We practice nature awareness and attunement skills, and develop skills at being our own seer..
The day is directed toward you creating a fresh view of your life. We let the wind blow through us--the breath of divine--clearing the old, re-inspiring from Source. At day's end we reflect on what is emerging for you.
Slow down, observe, relax the mind as you connect with nature, enliven, de-stress in our high desert ecosystem. With ancestral perceptions, ways to stay in balance, use of rocks in healing and ceremony. Make friends with a tree, the spirit of a wild animal, observe bird language-behaviors, sink into the earth—sense the energies-wisdom; receive fresh ways of seeing. Take a “medicine” walk, do a 4-Directions solo circle, notice signs and symbols.
Shamanism is based on a deep, living relation to Nature and seer skills. Wild beings, trees, canyons have an energy field--a kind of consciousness--that we can connect with for healing, guidance, new vitality. In a series of spirit journeys to the drum, we connect with medicine animals, wise helper spirits, tree wisdom and more. Sandra mentors you and offers intuitive insights based on decades of experience. Perhaps you will know a moment of "ecstatic union," a profound portal you carry with you always.
"This is coyote's country
a landscape of the imagination
where nothing is what it appears."
Terry Tempest Williams"What is it exactly that called me here?
Mystery is what called me here--
the answers to questions I hadn't known yet to ask, hadn't lived yet.
Something Wise knew I was getting ready
to ask those questions--and to hear the answers
and it called me in so that we could talk."
Star Prairie
We go out at dawn or dusk or even by starlight to be one with nature at powerful times of the day.

"Our journey together will always remain in my heart...I have found so much peace and understanding in my soul...you have an unbelievable way of teaching one to open their souls and to look directly into self without any fear....thank you for that and for everything that you gave to me in Sedona. "
April, 2007, Virginia Beach, VA"I just wanted to thank you again for one of the most meaningful experiences I have ever had. I really think I made some connection with shamanic reality. I just kept feeling so connected to a higher and more real reality than my everyday life. "
April, 2007, Portland, OR"I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of the insights you have assisted me in releasing from my subconscious. Since my journey, I have been so at peace and felt so balanced and even more attuned to all that surrounds me and I am so grateful to you for sharing your gift with me.
April, 2005, JA, Phoenix"Your work touches a deep level in each person---only due to everyday life/society/and everything else that clouds/ consumes our thoughts its hard to even know that level exists let alone know how to access it and live fully after we have opened it up. But you help make it more accessible and us aware of it." July 2007
