Gong Bath w/ Cedar

Gong Bath w/ Cedar

Cedar Bear has been trained in the lineage of Richard Rudis who created the original “Gong Bath™”. Cedar’s Gong Bath’s and concerts include elements from Nada Yoga, DJ mixing, drumming, Tibetan Buddhism, Tantric Hinduism, sacred geometry, and Reiki. This creates a meditative experience in which each participant is acoustically guided via harmonic overtones, into realms of physical & mental/emotional well-being as well as cellular healing. Carefully designed vibrational constructs are used to further entice the brain into Alpha/Theta/Delta wave-scapes of clarity, peace, and wholeness which promotes physIcal, mental, and spiritual awakening, wisdom, and healing.

:: How to Prepare/What to Bring ::
-yoga mat or something soft to lie on and or a pillow.

Runes and Norse Magic for modern times
Dec 20 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Tribal Trends

The Runes and Norse Magic are deeply shamanic and esoteric forms of divination and self-exploration. During the classes, we are going to enter a personal journey into the wisdom of runes and discover the mysteries hidden within them. We will work on developing a deep personal understanding and we will build a lasting relationship with them.
The classes are not scholarly teachings about the history of runes. We will focus on hands-on practice to invoke in us the energy of the futhark.

Each class is different, destined by the runes the students pick at the beginning of the event. The Norns will guide the process! Classes are held on Tuesdays 3 times a month.

Some of the topics include:
– Futhark – the Norse alphabet
– Nordic Shamanism – other techniques and surprising practices
– Singing the Runes – the power of galdr
– Drawing the Runes – Bindruns
– Shamanic Worlds and the Tree of Life
– Visualizing the Runes
and more

You don’t have to have runes of your own to participate.
If you have your own set of runes you are welcome to bring them on board.

Tickets:
Standard: $15 – pay at the door or buy a ticket online to secure your spot.
Ticket + Runes – $45 – Purchase a ticket online and receive a set of runes carved in beautiful gemstones.

Please bring a pen and paper, other tools and resources will be provided.

My experience with the Runes.
In short, I always loved runes, I actually don’t remember when I got introduced to them for the first time. It was a long time ago.
My first business was named ‘Kenaz’- after the rune of creativity.
I am also a historical reconstructor of the Viking Age period, and I am particularly interested in the historical evidence of Norse magic with an emphasis on living archeology – meaning testing out the theory in reality. And oh boy, the stuff that’s coming to light is absolutely amazing! More during the class.

Lets’ cast some runes, shall we?

Capricorn Dark Moon Women’s Wisdom Council
Dec 21 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
West Asheville · Asheville, NC

You are invited to join within sacred space on the Winter Solstice as we celebrate the Balsamic phase of the Moon. We are preparing for the Capricorn New Moon, a fantastic time to vision your year of 2023 and make space for powerful manifestation.

Each month we gather in this temple space as a community of women reclaiming our connection to the Divine Feminine. As we come together in this sacred way we stretch our nervous systems to hold more for one another and therefore ourselves and our lineages.

This is a time to align to your visions with solid and sovereign clarity. The Dark Moon offers a necessary time to shed in a sacred container that transforms the lessons learned in the previous moon cycle into higher consciousness, so that with the new lunar cycle you are ready to cast your seeds.

You will receive astrological downloads, a handcrafted stone medicine tonic, and experience a guided meditation and sound healing within an intentional container. Address and information will be emailed a few days prior to the live event.

Body Image: Writing to Heal
Dec 23 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
online

This group is for everyone who suffers from a poor body image. You do not have to consider yourself to be a writer; the only requirement is that you want to heal your relationship with your body. As a trained Body Image Coach (to learn more about me go to www.aprilhorton.com) and a person living in this body-shaming culture, I know how painful a challenging body image can be. Writing can be a powerful tool used to heal this type of trauma. The structure of this group is that I will give out writing prompts and then everyone will write as fast as they can, without editing, for approximately ten minutes. Then there will be an opportunity for group members to share what they wrote (only if they want to) and then receive feedback from the group members on how the writing impacted them. In this safe space we can learn together how to see our bodies and ourselves in a more empowering light.

I am a trained Body Image Coach with a background in psychology. If you would like to know more about me check out my website at www.aprilhorton.com.

Activation in the Park
Dec 24 @ 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm
French Broad River Park
Activation in the Park

Activation in the Park

French Broad River Park: Go to the parking lot off of Riverview Drive, which is off of Amboy Rd. Find the cobalt blue canopy tent!

We will be as close to as directly across the parking lot as we can, near the water, with the tent (go past the bathrooms and head to the water). So, you should be able to find us pretty easily if it’s your first time).

We’ll enjoy meditations/visualizations, psychic ability empowerment, chakra activations, and lively discussions about how we can participate in the evolution of the new earth… a world where truth and the ethos of love (e.g.: Law of One) are the guiding forces.

All who are interested in spiritual growth and evolution and getting to know others who are “on their wavelength” are welcome.

NOTE: Bring a chair, pillow, or towel to sit on, an open mind, and energies of love, receptivity, and curiosity.

We look forward to meeting you!
