you can do this (it's worth it!)

For me, it started one morning this past week when I awoke with a vivid memory of a beautiful, valuable gold bracelet that had been given to me 20 years ago by someone that I dated briefly. One evening, I wore the bracelet to my saxophone performance, and there it was taken from me without my knowing it. This happened at least 5 years ago, but the grief of the loss and the disappointment in myself for being so vulnerable still makes me sick to my stomach.

I began to pull that thread a little. What else has been taken from me that is still a burden on my heart? The sweater began to unravel.

Performing music has not only been my livelihood for the past 36 years, it is also my passion. The lockdowns during the pandemic took ALL of my gigs from me. This is the longest time in my career that I have gone without playing live music for audiences with a band of my talented musician friends. This is a huge loss for me on so many levels.

As it turns out, these memories were just the beginning of excavating some deep grief, disappointment and pain that was still weighing me down.

During our upcoming Full Moon Ceremony, I will share wisdom teachings from the shamanic perspective that address this. And together we will experience a releasing ritual during our drum journey to shift the energy and allow the healing to begin.

I invite you to join our sacred circle for the Full Moon Ceremony ~ Native Flute Meditation and Drum Journey on ZOOM this Monday, April 26, 2021 from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Donations will be shared with Lakota People's Law Project.

Gather in virtual Sacred Circle as the reflected light of the full moon illuminates our inner world so that we may release that which no longer serves us.

Let go of everyday concerns and rest in peaceful meditation to the soothing sounds of Native American Flute music played live.

Journey with the drum to the unseen realms to connect with compassionate guardian spirits for guidance and healing through direct revelation.

To protect our sacred space, only those who have signed up will be admitted.

Hugs and blessings,

Sonya
