Return to Reverence: Year One Online

reconnecting to the natural world, cultural heritage, and your innate wisdom

Living a balanced, soul-filled, connected life is not just possible for us all ~ it's our Birthright. Your spiritual practice should resonate as intrinsically authentic to your heart and mind. For many, this means sifting and sorting until ways of connecting and honouring "make sense", "sit well" and become easily incorporated into day-to-day life. If you crave a personalized spiritual practice that suites your needs and inherent gifts, or wish for an arena to explore which practices are meaningful to you - I invite you to have a look at the Return to Reverence Immersion program, explore the free samples, and feel out if a year spent cultivating your own sacred living practices with myself and the ever expanding group of members is right for you. All details and application process can be found on the www.returntoreverence.ca website. We start annualy each October 1st.

Meet your facilitator

As a bean feasa living in Powell River BC, I work with the medicines within the land of this beautiful unceded Coast Salish Territory as well as the traditions of my Scottish and Irish ancestors. People come to me for personal healing work, to attend ceremonies, and to establish an animistic, earth-centered, 'shamanic' way of living. Online supports for your spiritual practice through videos, audio recordings, magazine articles, and discussion groups are also available. My journey into 'shamanic' practice began in 2007 with an intensive 3 year practitioner apprenticeship within a Celtic lineage. By January 2013 I was offering community gatherings, workshops, and monthly journey circles in both Squamish and North Vancouver BC. 2015 saw a small focus group be created called "Shamanic Living", then I expanded my training with Sandra Ingerman's two Shamanic Teacher courses before the focus group evolved into two, full year long immersion programs - the "Shamanic Living Immersion" and "Shamanic Medicine Ways program". In 2019, in consideration for the origins of the word "shamanism", these programs were merged into a two year offering and re-named as the "Return to Reverence Immersion" The online guided programs and self-paced courses that you find here are my response to growing interest outside of my region and to accommodate community members who have been unable to attend these programs, workshops and events due to distance or timing. I hope you will find supportive teachings, guidance in reclaiming your cultural heritage, and a deeper sense of connection with the natural world, the spirit realms, and to yourself within these offerings.
