MEDICINE WOMAN HEALERS AND SHAMANIC RESIDENTIAL WORKSHOP, RETREAT

AND ANNUAL GATHERING

This annual event is held under the ever-watchful gaze of Mt Tauhara at Taupo in the Central North Island of New Zealand. It embodies the ancient tradition of the sacred Whare Kura – the traditional school of higher learning - where the sacred role of the teacher plants in healing and magic and the rites of passage of the healer and shaman are introduced.

The full five-day Medicine Woman residential workshop introduces the restored ancient rites of passage of the healer and shaman. It is these ancient rites of passage that are the essential founda- tion upon which true healing and shamanic power is built. This experiential workshop provides a practical introduction to a sacred training pathway that is an embodiment of the natural processes that perfectly replicate the ancient order traditional training in healing and developing shamanic skills have always taken.

The introduction to the 12 Rites of Passage of the Healer and the 12 Healers Teacher Plant essences take place over the first two days followed by the 24 Rites of Passage of the Shaman and the 24 Shamans Teacher Plant essences over the next three days. Each of these two workshops can be attended as a stand-alone or combined event.

Pre-requisite: Healers two-day residential workshop completed prior to attending the Shamanic three-day residential workshop.

"I attended the Medicine Woman workshop last year for the first time and I found it to be a life changing experience.  I was a bit apprehensive to begin with, as I knew there were going to be times when I was out of my comfort zone, but my spiritual learning and personal growth exceeded my expectations.  There was a real camaraderie and support among the men and women who attended.  It was awesome to be in the company of like-minded people and I'll definitely be attending next year."
