Walking the mystical path with practical feet, Angeles Arrien, cultural anthropologist and educator, described how to live fully present in the world, while balancing our lives, work and spirituality. The author of several books, including The Four-Fold Way, Angeles was a master teacher who taught passionately, leading hundreds of participants in ritual and carefully designed processes to awaken our creativity and launch us on our personal journeys. Her work, a synthesis of indigenous wisdom, psychology and comparative religions, emerged from her deep connection and respect for the land-based knowledge of many cultures, including the Maoris, the people of South Africa and her own Basque culture.
This workshop will explore several techniques and practices that Angie developed including the drum journey and the Universal Shapes assessment. We will work to integrate our experience through music, poetry and collage. Come prepared to learn more about the ways of the Leader, Healer, Visionary and Teacher and to participate in practices that will open your heart and mind to your life path.
Do you shy away from conflict? Do you feel stuck in a relationship and not sure what else to do? A lot of us are yearning to unleash our creativity, innovation and human potential to change our world. Yet, where most of us meet our greatest resistance is in our conflicts with others. We are either afraid of hurting someone else or losing our own self-respect. Our bodies and minds are so interconnected that even just bringing this topic up is probably causing you to clench up somewhere in your jaw, chest or stomach. Learn to use this energy of conflict to transform obstacles, embody renewed vitality and apply the principles of yoga for breakthrough solutions. Become a warrior for peace in your everyday life.
