Learning with the Totems is a journey into direct relationship with the wisdom of Nature. Each gathering is devoted to one totem. Every Totem carries its own unique medicine, wisdom and way of being. During these teachings we enter into direct relationship with a Totem through the Medicine Wheel, embodiment, guided journey and ceremony. Rather than learning about the Totem, we are invited to meet it, listen to its teachings, and discover how its wisdom is reflected within ourselves.
“Through the Wheel we meet the Totem.
Through the Totem we meet ourselves.”
Wolf is a teacher. A teacher of your own heart, your own spirit.
Wolf brings the balance within, the balance around.
Wolf shows you where your spirit soars and where your spirit rests.
Wolf teaches you about honoring yourself, for finding balance within yourself, for being you, uncompromising and there.

Organizer
Ellen begeleidt mensen in lichaamsgerichte therapie, embodied coaching en ceremonieel werk.
In haar werk brengt ze aandacht naar lichaam, adem en klank als ingang — om te voelen, te vertragen en aanwezig te zijn bij wat er leeft.
In haar ceremonies ontstaat een bedding waarin je kunt zakken — voelen, belichamen en aanwezig zijn — en waarin je bewustzijn zich verdiept in verbinding met jezelf, de natuur en het grotere geheel.
