SUMMARY:Monthly Community Healing Ritual - October
DESCRIPTION:Join us for monthly community healing rituals on fourth Saturdays – June 27 thru Oct 24. \n\n\n“Ritual is called for because our soul communicates things to us \nthat the body translates as need\, or want\, or absence. \nSo we enter into ritual in order to respond to the call of the soul.” \n― Malidoma Patrice Somé\, Ritual: Power\, Healing and Community\n\n\nJoin us for this monthly community healing ritual led by Erica Thibodeaux\, MS\, LPCC.  No experience is necessary. Everyone is welcome. \nDuring these events\, we will come together and create a ritual that emerges from the rhythm of all who are gathered\, their current needs\, and the guidance and support of the elemental beings of the fire (ancestors)\, water\, earth\, nature\, and mineral. \nWhat gets created in group ritual arises out of the participants voices. Together\, we will create something NEW based on the relationships each participant carries with them into our circle from their own inner wisdom that may or may not be already known. \nThis event is highly participatory. You are asked to arrive with an open heart and mind and a willingness to learn from the Elements themselves\, as well as willingness to support your fellow participants. Alcohol and drug use are not allowed during these events. \n\nCost: These rituals are donation based + the entrance fee to Kinstone ($10). Our hope is to keep these accessible to any who are feeling the call to community and nature-based healing. If the cost of entrance to Kinstone is prohibitive\, please reach out\, we have a scholarship fund for those in need. \nNo pre-registration is required; just show up with your Kinstone admission (pay in the Visitor Center before the event or check in at the Visitor Center if you have paid in advance or have your season pass) and bring a free-will donation for Erica (cash is appreciated and will be collected by Erica during the event). Note that Erica shares all donations with her elders to aid in the continuation of their work. \n\nDate: October 24 \nTime: 4:00pm to 7:00pm \nIf you’d like to learn more about the language of ritual\, join us in the parking area at 2pm before each event to help with set up\, planning and to begin learning the Language of Ritual. \nKinstone Location: The Three Witnesses \nTheme and Element: Return to Authenticity (NATURE) \n\nThis is a monthly series; all the dates\, locations and themes in the series are listed here: \n\n\nJune 27 | The Pond | Shape Shifting (WATER) \nJuly 25 | Under the Pines by the Yurt | Burial and Re-bEarth (EARTH) \nAugust 22 | The Great Stone Circle | Wisdom in Our Bones (MINERAL) \nSeptember 26 | The Dolmen | Tending the Ancestral (FIRE) \nOctober 24 | The Three Witnesses | Return to Authenticity (NATURE) \n\n\n\n\nAbout the leader: \nErica Thibodeaux\, MS\, LPCC\, is a licensed professional counselor in private practice Winona\, MN.
