"Intention, Creativity, & Breath": A Meditative Journey via Integrative Breathwork   At the surface, we are each individuals with a personal biography.  At the depths of our psyches, we discover we are sacred beings, both human and divine.  Integrative Breathwork is a powerful experiential process that utilizes evocative music to carry us deeper into ourselves, our inner wisdom and our creativity.  Using the ancient spiritual practice of connective breathing, focused body work, evocative music, symbolic artwork, and group process, this combination opens the psyche by removing us from our ordinary state of awareness where we are anchored by how we see, hear, and breathe in our day-to-day lives.  By altering these three factors, the musical journey unveils to us inner treasures, releasing blocked cellular energies, healing unfinished emotional issues, and connecting us to our own healing wisdom of the soul.

SoulfulMask Process

The mask is an ancient symbol of transcendence and power.  Masks have had a significant role throughout human civilization as a portal into the great mysteries of life and consciousness.  Masks were used by the great Shaman traditions of every known culture as instruments for obtaining wisdom, gaining protection, seeking guidance, celebrating rites of passage, and for healing.  The mask is a way of reconnecting the “dreaming soul” with the everyday living self.   Masks can express the many different aspects of self.  Masks have been used in ritual and play since ancient times as a way to communicate and express various emotions and states of being.   When created, a mask can come alive as one aspect of the wearer’s self to give it life, full expression, voice.  When a mask is worn, a previously hidden part of one’s self can come alive.  The mask emits a force field of latent power and potential – the sense of something deeply mysterious about to reveal itself…calling up secrets and gifts from within and beyond.   The SoulfulMaskTM process uniquely combines the vehicles of creative expression, active imagination, and inner exploration to allow participants to experience mask-making “play” in a meaningful, thought-provoking, healing, and transformative setting of self-discovery.
