ShamaMama Newsletter Spring 2018

Howdy Do!

Happy Spring!  I love this time of year, with all the flowers blooming, eggs being laid., babies being born, bears waking up, warm days and cool nights…. I love it!   I am just back from two weekends in a row of being “off the grid”, and it was AMAZING.  Getting away was a nice (and needed) reminder that it’s okay to slow down.  It’s even recommended, as I was repeatedly reminded by my Banana Slug friends.  Every time I asked for guidance, I would see a Banana Slug!! The messages I received (loud and clear)….. Slow down, ground, connect, be flexible.  Love it!

We are ALL busy – it’s the world we live in.  But it’s okay to be away from the electronic leashes that bind you.  Give it a shot! J  We are meant to be in and with nature.  If you don’t have time to get away for a weekend, I suggest doing whatever you can do..  Perhaps sit in the grass and eat your lunch.   Look for birds and flowers on your next walk.  Visit a local park and lean against a tree while you watch the squirrels.  Take your shoes off.  Enjoy the feeling of the sunshine on your skin.  Enjoy all these little things, and JUST BREATHE.  Breathe slowly in and out and just be still.  You deserve to have your batteries charged.

DRUMMING CIRCLE 

Artwork by Austen Mok

I’m super excited to host a number of upcoming Drumming Circles throughout the next few seasons.  I’m grateful to be facilitating these events once again.  I look forward to building a strong community of drumming peeps.  Also, it’s not on the calendar yet, but my good friend and teaching partner, Emily Kritzer, and I will be hosting some fun KIDS DRUMMING CIRCLES this summer too – I will keep you posted!

So what happens at a Drumming Circle?  Well, it’s pretty much what it sounds like – a group of people come together and drum.  The drumming is typically led by a facilitator who will set the tone for the event and guide participants as needed.   One of the best parts of a Drum Circle, besides the coming together of people, is the strong positive and loving intention.  Intention is one of the main ingredients of a Circle. These ceremonies are open to all – come as you are.

Donations will be collected for charity.  Bring your drum, or other percussive instrument, or use some of the many instruments provided.

Bringing Community Together & Partnering With Grace Cloyd

My good friend Grace Cloyd http://www.lifebysoul.com/  and I are joining forces to offer a monthly workshop where people can come together to discuss and ask questions about most anything from a metaphysical perspective.  Grace has been leading these meetings for a while now, and I am honored to be a part of these events where you will learn and explore ways to apply and share your unique intuitive abilities and discuss common individual experiences to assist you in interpreting your spiritual messages. We may also discuss current events from a metaphysical perspective. Please bring a journal or notebook.   Donations will be collected for charity.  Last month our collected donations went to help the 13th Street Cat Rescue in San Jose CA.  www.13thstcats.org

Please Join Us!!!!  Simply call or text Grace or Karen directly, email Grace at hello@lifebysoul.com, or contact Karen throughhttps://shamamama.com/ if you are interested in participating. RSVP is open!
