A conscious gathering to experience the ritual of energy blessings, icaros, medicine songs and offerings. Fundraising for Sacred Ways Foundation. "MITAKUYE OYASIN" or "WE ARE ALL RELATED" is a Lakota phrase at the center of the 'way of life' of the indigenous people of the world. It is also the corner stone of today's PSYCHEDELIC RENAISSANCE. In a time where we are experiencing the emergence of psychedelic as a new pathway to explore the limit of the mind and a solution to societal crisis, Francois Demange (Metsa Nihue) and Kelly Jennings (Kapomo) both initiated in the lineages of the Quechua's, Shipibos, Lakota, Dene, Mazatec, Tsitujiles, Awajun and Meshicas...bring the beauty of indigenous wisdom into the context of our everyday life. Everything is energy ... it is all interconnected... Being and Becoming the Medicine, is a gathering to experience at first hand the ritual of energy blessings, medicine songs and offerings. Come and witness, Participate in an emergent process of connection, Be in the Conversations where the WATER is listening, where SPACE, a co-creation of our presence SPEAKS... Indigenous Wisdom and Psychedelics today. Songs, Icaros, Indigenous Wisdom, Ritual and Conversations. The Space where Water Listens. Re-Membering your Essence. Connecting to Oneness. Francois Demange whose indigenous name is Metsa Nihue (meaning “Good Wind”) is an internationally known healer who specialises in traditional Amazonian lineages. He trained in the Peruvian Amazon for fifteen years under the guidance of the Quechua-Lamistas, Aguarunas, and the Shipibo indigenous peoples. He has since been in practice leading grandmother retreats and plant medicine rituals in South America building awareness for communities from the US, Europe, and Canada for more than twenty eight years. He comes as the most highly recommended practitioner by many accredited scholars in the field of psychedelic study and by leaders in organisations dedicated to research in these fields. He is a Reiki master healer and a Sun Dancer with the Dakota Tipi Nation of Canada, initiated in the Bwiti healing art and ceremonies of the Iboga tradition in Gabon by Maman Bernadette Ribiennot, and part of the Native American Church of the Denee Nation. He brings these lineages and practices together in ceremony to provide a powerful healing transmission and awakening our western culture into a collective consciousness resonance rooted in everyday life reality. Kelly whose indigenous name is Kapomo is dedicated to the evolution of our planetary consciousness and culture through radical self-care, transformational individual and group healing experiences, and shamanic Qi Gong transmission. She's mother to a mixed family of 5, daughter to a Chilean mamá and Aruban raised father and wife to a renegade French/Peruvian. She's a naturopathic physician and Chinese medicine practitioner, informed by two decades of ritual practice and training with indigenous healers from the Shipibo, Mayan, Moshica, Daoist and Quechua traditions. Her work is inspired by this question: How are we becoming the elders our children are yearning for? Please note all profits from this gathering will go to Sacred Ways Foundation.
