The sacred:

Egypt has held the sacred for millennia, as well as some of the most ancient formulas of alchemy through transforming life force energy into the tangible and experienced. This one week training is a combination of ancient rituals with the breakthrough edge of modern science and phycology through living experiences, embodiment practices and shamanic transformation.

In the dual nature of all, the masculine and feminine within are often in separation, dissonance and even war. In the healthy integration of these two forces love, power and freedom begin to emerge and radically shift peoples lives and experiences.

In repatterining old belief systems, emotional patterns and false stories of self and others, an incredible surge of new life force moves through the body creating new pathways for a more loving and extra ordinary way of living. Learning healthy boundaries, saying yes and no and creating a new relationship with the Divine mother and father are part of the course.

This land, the water, the fire, the stars and the breath of life support us to sail into some deep mysteries of love and truth.

Who is this training for?

Everyone above the age of 18.

Attendees include those from the various paths. The entire course is designed to support all individuals to find, feel, claim, and express their highest life expression. If it is your truth, It is possible to complete the entire training/experience without touching another person. How do we fully take back our power as well as support others to live free?
