This writing process facilitates solutions to these conflicts. Several writing techniques are used including poetry, prose, and meditative writing. Workshops are geared toward fun and yet are often profound in their outcome.

About the Workshop:During this major time of global shift, as we are bombarded with multi-occurring disasters and human desecration to our planet, so many of us are deeply concerned about our earth and wonder what we can do to assist her recovery. Shamanism offers a valuable opportunity to directly ask Gaia what she requires for healing. During this workshop, we will
1) review the basics of shamanism and the steps of the journey process,
2) discuss the earth changes that are affecting us both globally and locally, and
3) journey to receive medicinal components, dosages and tools directly from Gaia.
4) Finally, as a group, we will alchemically combine what we’ve gathered from the visions of our individual journeys into a sacred ceremony that we offer as medicine to Mother Earth and all her inhabitants.

About Regina: She is a member and facilitator of Shamanism without Borders, a group created by The Society of Shamanic Practitioners of which she is also a member. Shamanism without Borders uses shamanic journey to travel to crisis locations around the world in order to diagnose and facilitate healing for the earth and all those connected with those events. Involved in shamanism since 2003 with her first teacher, Tom Cowan, Regina continues her process in 2012 with a yearlong apprenticeship and initiation program with shamanic practitioner Cecile Carson, MD at the Integrated Health Institute in New York.
