Workshops

Healing the Fragmentation of the First Chakra

Explore the foundation on which your energetic body is built. Examine issues of survival, fear, boundaries and limitations, manifestation and prosperity. Take a shamanic journey to connect with Atman – your highest self, the divinity within you. Journey to your birth experience and the time you spent in your mother’s womb. Gather up the fragmentations of the earliest part of your soul’s journey this lifetime, and prepare yourself for the healing path ahead of you.

This workshop will be held on Saturday, September 13 from 4pm-7pm in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, TX . Workshop fee is $45. Register by contacting Lynn or by sending workshop fee via PayPal (workshops@turtlemedicine.net) by August 30. Cash and checks are accepted as well.

Register by August 30 to reserve your place in the workshop.

If you would like to register for the series, a discounted fee of $150 is available if paid in full by August 30.

This is the first of four workshops offered on healing the first 4 chakras:

The Sacred Womb and the Muse: Healing the Emotional Body, Birthing Creativity
No, it’s not just about sex and money. The second chakra is the seat of our emotions and creativity. Here we meet the dualities of pleasure and pain, of stagnation and flow, of birth and death. Participate in hands-on exercises to illuminate the state of your emotional body, and then journey with your spirit guides and allies for healing. Meet your own personal Muses – your sisters in creativity – to receive blessings and insight to help you birth your creativity and passion. Saturday, September 27 from 4-7pm, $45.

Fire in the Belly: Standing in Your Power, Accessing Your Purpose
Most of us learned early in life to give up our power and identity to everything outside of ourselves. We have defined ourselves by our relationships, our jobs, our material possessions and all the things we strive for throughout life. In this session we will explore the concepts of identity, individuation, power and purpose from a shamanic perspective for the purpose of healing. Journey with your spirit guides and advocates to the seat of your power. Gain insight on the areas of your life in which you are losing your power, and how to heal those areas. Create a personal vision quest that will help you access your life dream, your purpose. Sunday, October 26 from 4-7pm, $45.

Yin, Yang, Intimacy and Compassion:
Healing and Opening the Heart Chakra
The vitality and health of the fourth chakra impacts our ability to walk in right relationship with all of creation – ourselves, others, nature and spirit. In this session we will explore the topics of balance, intimacy, attachment and freedom, and compassion. We will journey with our spirit guides and advocates to our inner wounded child to heal our relationships with the mother and the inner feminine, and then do the same for the father and inner masculine. We will discover the imprint our parents’ relationship had on us, and journey to heal that imprint. Through these exercises we will open up the heart chakra and allow it to bridge the lower chakras we have explored with the higher chakras before us. Saturday, November 8 from 4-7pm, $45

Stalking Your Power
Advanced Shamanic Techniques Spirit Moon Workshop
Register by Friday, August 1st. (See details below.)

Before a shamanic practitioner’s true work begins, she or he pulls in Life Force. We call this “Power.” This allows the higher energies to flow through us and keeps us strong and safe as we travel back and forth in the other worlds for the sake of healing ourselves, others and Mother Earth.

In “Stalking our Power” we see where our life force has gone, and how to pull it back and keep it. All of this is done in a safe and nurturing environment. We meet the Spirits and Guides who will help us. We find our own Power Song and become more adept at journeying for others and helping them find their power. We will learn how to assist in returning life force to Mother Earth.

In this weekend workshop you will go deeper into your relationship with your teachers, guides and Self. Learn how to free yourself of fears that have kept you from coming into relationship with your True Self, your connection with the Universe and with the Divine. And to free yourself so that you can truly participate on your spiritual path, whatever that might be, and become a being of compassion and courage.

Workshop Dates
September 20 and 21 from 10am-6pm both days

This workshop will be held in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, TX . Workshop fee is $195. Register by contacting Lynn (workshops@turtlemedicine.net or 214.564.6799) or by sending deposit of $75 via PayPal (workshops@turtlemedicine.net) by Friday, August 1st. Cash and checks are accepted as well.

This is the first of a series of Level 2 Advanced Shamanic techniques classes. A prerequisite is the completion of either the Spirit Moon Basic Shamanic Techniques class or The Path of Personal Empowerment workshop offered by Turtle Medicine. The Advanced course is for those who wish to continue their exploration of the spirit world and to experience how profoundly shamanic practice/study can affect your personal life and your ability to manifest your life purpose.

The Path of Personal Empowerment:
Shamanic Techniques for Healing and Transformation
Feeling Stuck?
As we move through life we often hit periods in which everything seems to be changing. We might say we are "stuck" or that things "seem to be falling apart." Times like this can be a gift. They are an opportunity to heal our wounds, to dissolve the obstacles holding us back and to learn to stand firm in our Power. To do this we must explore our connection to all things - self, Spirit, nature and each other.
Shamanic Practice and Healing
Today many contemporary shamanic practitioners and teachers help people around the world achieve healing through wholeness. In the shamanic world, it is believed that all illness and dis-ease begins in the spiritual realm and that healing is needed on all levels - mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. The shamanic practitioner works in the spiritual realm to help facilitate healing. Shamanic teachers help their students discover the path to their own personal healing, transformation and empowerment.
The Series
Want to learn more? Join us for a month of exploring personal healing, transformation and empowerment from a shamanic perspective in a small community setting. Learn about the three worlds of the shaman, the healing attributes of the directions on the medicine wheel and the elements of nature, and learn how you can integrate shamanic techniques into your spiritual practice and day-to-day life.
Session Dates and Times:
Saturday
Introduction to shamanism and shamanic journeying. Learn about shamanic healing techniques, how to work with the elements of nature and the directions on the medicine wheel. Experience a drumming meditation and discover your personal shamanic journeying "home base." We will also explore the shamanic Lower World. Take a shamanic journey to the Lower World to meet a Guide or Teacher, visit a Place of Power and retrieve symbols and information for personal healing. Perform a Power Animal Ceremony for a partner in the workshop, and receive one yourself.
Sunday
Explore the shamanic Middle World - the spiritual realm of our every day lives. Journey to meet a Guide or Teacher and to discover how you are energetically connected to others in your life. Learn to work with those connections in order to maintain and build your personal energy and power. Learn about power and energy retrieval ceremonies, as well as the shamanic technique and ceremony known as Soul Retrieval. We will also explore the shamanic Upper World and your personal connection with Spirit. Take a shamanic journey to the Akashic Records to meet a Teacher and retrieve information for personal healing. Retrieve spiritual information to help you with the obstacles and challenges that are most prevalent in your life today.
In each session we will discuss how to integrate the shamanic techniques you learn into your day-to-day life. We take a practical approach to personal healing in this workshop in order to ground these techniques in a reality you can access in every aspect of your life.
This workshop will be held in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, TX. Register either by contacting Lynn (workshops@turtlemedicine.net or 214.564.6799) or by sending deposit of $50 via PayPal (workshops@turtlemedicine.net) by Thursday, April 17. Cash and checks are acceptable as well.

Personal Healing with the Medicine Wheel

Explore your inner Warrior, Teacher, Healer and Visionary through shamanic journeying and craft-making in a new online workshop. These four aspects of self correspond to the four directions on the medicine wheel, and each has something to teach us. Their medicine and guidance can help us in our everyday lives, as well as help us strengthen our connection with Spirit.

Each week you will receive information on a different aspect of self and direction on the medicine wheel. The elements and energies associated with each direction will be discussed as well.

A shamanic journey or guided meditation assignment will be provided for each direction and you will have the opportunity to share your experiences with the group, and receive feedback from the facilitator. A craft for each direction will also be suggested as well as a ceremony to honor and integrate the energy from each direction into your life.

Class topics:

Week #1 - The Warrior

Week #2 - The Healer

Week #3 - The Visionary

Week #4 - The Teacher

It is preferable that participants will have completed a Basic Shamanic Techniques workshop or will have experience with shamanic journeying before beginning this online workshop. However, a basic understanding of shamanic practice is acceptable.
