Spring Equinox Meditation

Wednesday, March 20, 2024 7-9 pm ET

In March, we emerge from the quiet of winter to the colors & new life of spring. This equinox, learn how to open to this time on a spiritual & emotional level—a sacred energy stirs at the equinox, & we can anchor its refreshing strength in the land & our lives by honoring it in meditation.

Engage in mindfulness meditation to discover how you connect to this season & what you need at this time. Continue with a restorative healing ceremony in which you release winter & set your energy field & spirit for spring. We will close with a guided visualization in which you explore the equinox’s teachings.

Every spring, we greet the blossoms & breezes with wonder. Honor this transformative time by holding space for it to emerge!

Activating Your Creativity

Saturday, March 30, 2024 11 AM-1 pm ET

Creativity is an energetic force at its core. When we explore our creative vision, we awaken a powerful, transformative force within. By taking time to revitalize this force, we strengthen our creative potential & give it fresh life.

In this workshop, use your intuitive abilities to attune to the creative essence that is uniquely yours. Learn how to tell when it is flowing, blocked or recalibrating for a new creative journey. Discover what it needs at these times & how to give to it. Practice setting the energy of your creative workspace & clear the channels in your body through which creative energy flows.

Whether you are opening to your creativity or actively engaged in the arts, you can release blocks & limitations from your creative space—with your creative vision renewed, you can take it in directions you may not expect!

Flower Essences for Animals

Saturday, April 13, 2024 11 AM-1 pm ET

Flower essences are vibrational remedies that hold the energetic imprint of different flowers—flowers have unique information about how to thrive, protect ourselves & transform, based on how they have adapted to their environments.

Within the home & stable, we can use flower essences to nurture our animals’ emotional balance, redirect their behavior & strengthen our bonds. Professional animal communicators & healers can also use essences as an adjunct therapy.

This workshop identifies common concerns that flower essences address, exploring different essence lines & their offerings, especially animal-specific lines. It also explores the theory behind flower essences, ways to choose the right essence, how to administer essences to animals & how to make professional essence recommendations.

  • For $20 more, students who have completed Animal Communication I can remain for an hourlong practice session communicating with guest animals & making essence recommendations, with feedback & support.
