This gathering will be centred around Flourishing and Shining.

Inspired by the Solar Wheel of the Year, The Wheel is an opportunity to take part in the ancient and universally recognized tradition of following the seasonal cycle of the changing year, and to support and accelerate our path within that cycle. Harnessing the unique, shifting energy patterns of the seasons into the present moment can noticeably benefit our sense of well-being, our careers, and our relationships. It can help initiate positive change instead of being at the mercy of the fears around change. By truly experiencing the present, we are open to purposeful and prosperous living.

The Wheel at Werklab is a unique blend of movement, plant medicine and simple ceremonies, which are inclusive, spontaneous, and capable of bringing us empowered understanding. Through this gateway, we can break free of outworn defaults, damaging dogma, and restrictive concepts to generate fulfilling growth, exciting opportunities, and a more integrated self.

Each 2 hour gathering will include sharing on seasonal attunement, followed by an interdisciplinary experience of auric cleansing, yoga movement, breath-work, meditation, plant medicine, sound healing, and ending with suggested rituals to practise at home. Each gathering will be co-led by Chantal Russell, registered holistic nutritionist and yoga director of The Well on Bowen, and Mimi Young, shamanic medicine teacher and ritualist of Ceremonie.

Tea and Foundations in the Ancient Chinese Oracle

Tea + tea ceremonies are meaningful practices found all around the world. In Chinese cultures, tea and the rituals surrounding tea go back beyond Buddhism, Confucianism, and Daoism, to Chinese shamanism, otherwise known as Wuism. Shamans and sorceresses would pick leaves in the mountains nearby temples, dry them, make them into tea, which were then used during meditation, divination, and sorcery. Tea is plant medicine.

It is from these same roots, that the I Ching (The Book of Changes), the oldest Chinese divination text and philosophical system was conceived. Said to be birthed and used from ~1150 BCE, the oracle still provides inspiration to faith, psychoanalysis, philosophy, agriculture, higher mathematics and quantum physics, law, art and literature.

Join shamanic medicine teacher and ritualist, Mimi Young of Ceremonie and experience the foundation of the I Ching, including the sacred synchronicities of numbers, Yin and Yang mysteries, and the elements according to ancient Chinese shamanism. Understand how these powerful, practical tools can be used to empower and enhance our everyday life. We will integrate the experience with a tea ceremony, led by Sara Jade Gooding of Dharma Temple with prompts by Mimi. Discover how tea is both a conduit and a container for the ancient mysteries of the sacred and the mundane.

Please note that there are 10 spots available for this event.

Investment: $65

Includes: Introduction to I Ching principles, take-home Companion Booklet containing key points written by Mimi Young, tea and other ceremony materials

“The past is never ended; it isn’t even past.” -- William Faulkner

The past is not always in the past. Many who have journeyed understand that linear time doesn’t really exist, and that everything is happening in the now. This means that the individuals you were in other lifetimes may be active in your own self right now, played out in your daily interactions. If you have experienced certain themes, patterns and situations that continue to replay no matter what you do, this is an example of an unresolved past life that is living in you. These wounds can sabotage you in the present-day, prevent authentic intimacy, create strong aversions/triggers, or other forms of unfinished business.

When a past-life has found closure and healed, your soul in your present life has no need to continue to re-experience the same themes. Instead, there is peace and a sense of vitality.

Delving deeper in shamanic journeying as an exploratory and healing practice, you are invited to join Mimi Young, shamanic medicine practitioner and ritualist of Ceremonie, to access your past lives, receive insights, and clear wounds that stem from beyond this present life.

Learn intermediate shamanic healing techniques related to past lives, including how to:

• Identify which issues + dynamics are from past lives

• Access your pages within the Akashic Records

• Travel to past / parallel lives

• Form closure with a past / parallel self

• Retrieve a fragmented soul back into your present self

By popular demand, this course has been edited to include those with shamanic journeying experience as well as those new to the practice. Mimi will provide guided instruction, modifications, and other knowledge towards attendees with varying experience.

Investment: $50 early bird (up to one week before event); $60 general admission

What to bring:

• Notebook and pen

• Scarf / bandana / or eye cover

• Rattle (optional)

• A small Clear Quartz crystal (optional)

Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice— anthropologists have found cross cultural evidence of the first shamans from over 40,000 years ago. Today, shamanic journeying suits the needs of our modern life; it is the path of direct revelation, and requires no outside authority or ideology. Shamanism gives us the tools to enter the spirit world and reconnect to our own power.

The shamanic journey is the art of using drum rhythms and intention to enter into altered brain states to access the spiritual dimension of life. Led by Mimi Young, shamanic medicine practitioner and ritualist of Ceremonie, you are invited to learn the basics around this safe, reliable, and effective practice to experience support, clarity, and lasting transformation. This class is OPEN TO ALL, though it will be geared towards those in the wellness industry; we will be learning how to travel within the body as well as the chakras.

Learn core shamanic journeying, including:

• How to visit various spirit realms

• How to visit energetic realms within the body

• How to journey to specific chakras (energy centres)

**Back by popular demand**

Deep into the winter, The Well on Bowen invites you to to a cozy evening of self care that relates to your skin and cycle:

Your skin is a mirror of your inner world - physiologically, emotionally, and spiritually. By extension, the kind of relationship you have with your skin is an indication of how you relate with yourself as a whole. Do you know your skin’s personal needs and genuine expression? Did you know that your skin, being the body’s largest organ, is asking to converse with you through its conditions? With Mimi Young, plant spirit medicine practitioner, we invite you to an evening to develop a foundation based on today’s understanding of skin science, determine what your skin truly needs through face mapping and other tools, learn how to nourish it with plant medicine, form practical beauty rituals, and discover how to harness the Moon’s cycles so you can bridge your own internal landscape with your external beauty. We will end the evening with a powerful, group shamanic journey.

Investment: $60. Includes workshop materials and Ceremonie Companion Booklet
