Join Irish teacher and author, Amantha Murphy, from Ireland as she shares these ancient traditions. The Shamanic tradition goes back over many thousands of years. Each clan or grouping of people held in reverence the Shamanic Way. This Way allows a person to walk between the worlds; recognizing the interconnectedness between all living forces both seen and unseen. Journeying into these worlds for healing, for answers, for visions, brings a sense of continuity, wholeness and integration for self and for the clan. Amantha will explore: Explanation of the Ancient Irish Shamanic Way. The three worlds, Lower, Middle and Upper. Soul retrieval and Cutting the Ties. Journeying with your allies and ancestral teachers. Understanding the ancient Wheel of the Sun. Connecting with the Stone people and the Shinning Ones Using Drumming, rattle, dance, chants and sound.. We will follow ancient pathways to release family issues and personal blocks. We will work with nature, with sound and with movement: gathering our fragments together. We will drum, express and gain inspiration from this work. We literally do ‘walk on the bones of our ancestors’ and carry with us their lessons, their pain and their joy. All that has not been released from our foremothers and forefathers are contained within our DNA, within our bones and blood and this plays itself out in all our realities. For many, we lose ourselves in our Dream World as a way of playing out those energies trapped within. Yet in retrieving our Selves, we stand within the frame of our Being and our Being stands within us. We are then ONE.
