“The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with nature” -Joseph Campbell
A Transformative and Healing Journey with the Elements of Nature
Imagine having a diverse world full of friends with various talents, ready to be called on at anytime, there to help you the whole way through any mundane or difficult task -and knowing exactly how to ask for and get that support! Can you feel how much lighter, easier, satisfying this fully supported life would be? This is what life connected to the spirit of nature and all its elements can be. It is a life fully in the flow, alive, and helpful.
The CHrysalis
This class is a container, a place of metamorphosis, that holds a deep connection to a lineage of grandmothers who lived before us and by the earth's rhythms. Within its walls is a learning environment that is intimate, brave, and fun. It gives an opportunity to have conversation and learning that is ongoing, and builds over time. This class is immersive and fully experiential, so we will all delve together into nature and many of its elements, getting to know the spirit within many of the powerful elements of nature. Using art, craft, ritual, and ceremony we will create a reciprocal, intimate relationship between us and each element. It is a chance to engage with nature and spirit to create regular interactions that help heal us and the world around us. It is a monthly mini-retreat, helping us slow down, engage all our senses, and breathe deeply again.

Cost for the full 9 month program: $900-$1500 sliding scale
*Because this is an ongoing class that builds knowledge over time, we cannot have people join midway, or attend only a few of the weekends. When you register, you are committing to the full 9 month program! A note on our Sliding Scale Fees: We offer the sliding scale as a means of allowing you to self-scholarship, as needed. We leave it entirely up to you to select your point on the scale, and ask you to recognize that the true cost of running the program is approximately in the middle. We count on your integrity in selecting your rate: when you choose a higher amount, you are making it possible for someone of lesser means to pay a lower tuition. In this way, we are working together to help keep the program affordable. *work/trade options also available **Sign up a friend and get one weekend free! ***have to miss one of the weekends? We understand that naturally things come up -weddings, births, family vacation,etc. Let us know if you need to miss a weekend, we can work something out. |
