December 20, 2009 @ The Yurt/Elemental Spirits, Jefferson, ME
This 3 1/2 hour event celebrates the return of the Sun and honors the Spirit of Darkness. We explore the ways our ancestors might have experienced (with exhilliration) the evidence of the suns return, and at the same time we gather in a sacred ceremony of the Sami people to hear from the oracle of the Spirit of the Darkness who provides us with powerful healing energies.
This ceremony incorporates a lot of singing, dancing and ringing of bells. We "climb the tree" to visit with the Spirit of the Sun to ask for guidance for the coming year.
Experience with shamanic journeying is not required for attendance at this workshop. Prior registration IS required. Directions to each of the sites will be provided upon registration for one of these events.
Tuition: $30.00
Two-Year Program Testimonial
Dory is a great teacher! She is also a gifted shamanic healer, with plenty of experience to draw upon in her class work. She is that rare combination of gifted and humble that makes her a wise and valuable spiritual guide. She created a safe space in which to do deep spikritual work that is relevant and meaningful. At the same time there was plenty of fun and laughter in her classes. I feel blessed that I was called to study with Dory.
Testimonial: Male Student
This shamanic program with Dory opened my life and my soul. I am no longer able to look at life, to interact with life, without having awareness of the surrounding spirits. I live with a totally new level of peace. There are no words to describe how Dory and this program have changed my life. I will forever be indebted.
Testimonial: Current Student
My experience in my first year of training in Shamanic Healing with Dory has been transformational. In the beginning I thought of shamanism as an activity or pursuit. As the year progressed, shamanism became totally integrated in my every day life. It has helped me to understand, and appreciate, myself and thrive in a challenging world.
Testimonial: Children's Workshop
