Others Who
Work with Group Ceremony

To
work powerfully with ceremony requires an open-hearted
dedication combined with a disciplined, experienced
knowledge of core universal principles. This workshop
is designed to take motivated people deeper into
this powerful group practice. My soul's expression
of working with the power of the circle will be
different than yours, but underneath that realm
of deep creativity are core principles that have
been effectively used as long as humans have been
on earth. A good ceremonial leader makes
the art of holding space look easy. But to create
a safe and spiritually alive circle where all can
work together as one, takes years of practice and
experience. There is a depth of focus, service,
flexibility, and non-ego required that also takes
dedicated practice to hone.

Workshop
Teachers:
The
workshop is led by Sandra Cosentino who
has a life long relationship with wild nature and
22 years experience with group wheel healing circles. Sandra
uses her guidance, intuition and experience to bring these
universal ways into a living, contemporary form for all
people and are not copied from any of today's Native
American tribal ceremonies. Sandra has absorbed ancient
principles of working with the power of the circle
from experience with traditional tribal peoples in
Alaska, the Southwest and Peru and with wise universal
teachers of cross-cultural traditions plus direct
dream time teachings from spirit.
A
Hopi wise woman will share her reverence,
honoring and prayers and help you understand the importance
of focus. She does not teach Hopi ceremony, that belongs
to Hopis--but she shares her warmth and ability to offer
prayers from the heart with us. She also does hands on work
as part of ceremony.
Uqualla, a
spiritual emissary from the Havasupai tribe, will offer a
session on holding space, prayer, ceremonial objects,
smudging, working with intention.
"We
are co-creating a new tribal way open to all people that
is growing out each of our deepening relationship with
the circle of life and evolving consciousness of life on
Mother Earth. This is a time of opening the heart-mind
and using the mental mind for higher purposes," Sandra
Cosentino

The
Power of Sound to Heal, to Create New Life
"The
very air seems to shiver and vibrate as a multitude of harmonic tones reaches
out into an infinite universe. The essence of your cells -- your very being
-- reacts, reorganizes, and harmonizes."
