More-Than-A-Healer
Do you remember who you are, in addition to space holder, nurturer, motherer, tender, healer? Do you remember what it feels like to be in your own skin, the voice of your inner 4 year-old, the wonder that unfolds a path of whimsy without the weight of responsibility? Do you long to breathe into your full size and colorful expression without filtering for the role you’re in? Do you just need time and space to feed the thrum of connection that brings you alive?
Let the canyon return you to Source. Allow the descent through her blood-red walls unravel every honorable burden of being one who nurtures. Shows up. Holds space. Cares. Let the river receive you in generous reciproicty, co-navigating her gentle flow. Let the desert free your wild child who has inspired every shiver of delight in you.
You will encounter the uncomfortable. Flirt with the feral. Step outside the box you could map in your sleep. Surrender to the unexpected. Discover the empowerment of thriving in the desert and experience the relief and homecoming found in resting into the web of interbeing. Come sing yourself home. Return to more of who you are, where you are more-than-a-healer.
With the experience and connection to Labryinth Canyon and Green River as our biggest facilitators, we will also engage in song, art/writing processes, and co-created ritual.
