Awakening and Nourishing Spirit

Since 2008 I have experienced marvelous personal inner change, development, and insight founded on traditions of the Peruvian Shamans. Three of the most profound yet simple practices have been (1) receiving rites of initiation, (2) creating living prayers of gratitude and intention, called despachos, and (3) ceremonial fires to initiate or conclude periods of personal growth.

We have decided to share these practices with a small group of people – which might mean you. What we have in mind is a series of evenings once per lunar month timed to the full or new moon. The agenda will be divided into the three components: a rite, a despacho, and a small ceremonial fire. The rite component will include a brief description of the rite being offered, a guided visualization concerning the rite, then individually gifting the rite from us to you (if you want it). The despacho component is equally profound yet energetically and emotionally lighter and fun, and is a participatory activity we will lead. The ceremonial fire will be a mini version.

There are no prerequisites. There are no expectations, commitments, or obligations to us or anyone else. If while reading this, you feel a calling to follow up, then click here.
Books

No More Drama: A Practical Guide to Healthy Relationships: Extending back in time, people have been drawn to watch and participate in drama. Understood and used by playwrights and authors in all cultures of recorded history, and known in recent times as the triangle of disempowerment, drama triangle, or Karpman's triangle, drama is a compelling but ineffective way of interacting with others that leads to relationship confusion, dysfunction and conflict. It is a pervasive source of suffering between individuals, groups, communities and nations. Psychotherapist Gregory Boyce's book No More Drama shows us the external appearances of drama, the inner workings, why we participate, and most importantly, how to conduct ourselves so we live in what he calls the Drama Free Zone. His writing is enjoyable and easy to follow; his suggestions, very powerful. It is: A Practical Guide to Healthy Relationships.  Authored by Gregory J. Boyce
