Voices of Those Who've Found Healing
Deeply Held, Profoundly Transformed
“I’ve done a lot of griefwork with different teachers, and this one opened new awareness, meaning and movements. Part of the power is in the special practices offered and part of the power is in the gifts of these two extraodinary teachers and guides. I felt deeply and completely held by them and the process.”
Mary Rooker
Shamanic Practitioner, Takoma Park, MD
