One-Day Shamanic Breathwork: Solar Eclipse
Spiritually, an eclipse represents a time of deep introspection and transformation. In many cultures, it is seen as an opportunity for personal growth as it is when the flow of energy is interrupted at the moment the sun is eclipsed by the moon. It gives us pause to reflect on our lives release what no longer serves us and call forth that which we are ready to step into.
This experiential workshop corresponds with the energies of the Solar Eclipse which will be acute here in Illinois on April 8th. We will be in the window of this portal of amazing energies to consciously work with what is coming up in our lives to be eclipsed.

Breathe the World: FREE One-Day Shamanic Breathwork
This 1/2 day Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony is being offered as a free gift from Aahara to you, a give-back to our community. We offer this once a year.
During this time of conflict and upheaval on our planet we may be feeling overwhelmed, lost, angry, sad, confused, and more, both at personal and global levels. We need to gather in community to breathe and connect with each other. And...the holiday time of year can also be hard sometimes, with expectations, the stress of family dynamics, financial hardship, or grief as to not being able to be with loved ones who live far away or who have passed on. Why not come and breathe in a Shamanic Breathwork to release and let go of what needs to be released and to welcome a new perspective, insight, or revelation to support you during this time of upheaval?
Shamanic Breathwork is a tool that supports us in accessing a greater truth of our own souls knowing, connecting us to the Shaman or Healer Within.
Sunday afternoon, 1-5 pm
Free, with registration required
