Join us for an afternoon of yin yoga practice followed by
a Sakha Siberian Ritual Healing Practice, all supported by a sound healing
bath.
In this work, ritual space is first created through
authentic speech, somatic practice to open the body, and meditative soundscapes
to access the unconscious mind. Yin yoga calms the mind and nervous system,
gently stretching the joints and connective tissues. The practice enables you
to turn inward, focusing on the breath and stillness within. Sound can soothe
you, raise your consciousness, and carry you into other realms of experience.
Laura Perlin was initiated into this Sakha (Siberian)
collective healing practice in 2017 by her mentor YLLYKTAAKH, a shaman &
traditional healer from Nyurbinskii Uluus, Sakha Republic, Russian Federation.
The willing presence of each participant is required to create a safe group
container that will support healing and transformation in the ways that are
most necessary for personal & collective growth. After moving through the
preparatory practices, participants will lie comfortably on the floor while
Laura facilitates the healing work with support of her ancestors and spirit
family. Hands on healing may be a part of the practice (with participant
consent).
After the trance portion of the practice concludes,
participants have time to journal & gather themselves, after which we
engage in a group share of our experiences. The group share is an integral
piece of traditional Sakha ritual and allows the collective assembled to share
in the wealth of conscious and unconscious wisdom that has been brought back
from the spirit world. All practices will be conducted with careful attention
to ritual safety, in a non-hierarchical environmental of mutual respect and
confidentiality.
