 Join us for a restful and healing end of week Raven Medicine Sound Bath.
​
The Raven – revered across shamanic traditions as a powerful messenger between worlds, master of transformation, keeper of secrets, and harbinger of profound change – is my guide, and our guiding light for this work. Grounding shamanic drumming to attune us to the land and our heartbeat. Deep Gong tones to stir the deep energies in us, and prepare our transformation. The ethereal tones from crystal singing bowls to carry us into the ether. Gentle guided intention to invite personal metamorphosis, insight, and release of what no longer serves us.
​
We will gather, set our prayers and intentions, and then you can simply lie down (or sit comfortably) in a supported, sacred space while being enveloped in waves of healing sound and vibration.

No prior experience is needed – just come with an open heart and allow the Raven’s medicine to work in you.
​
What to expect:
​

• Profound relaxation and nervous system reset

• Emotional release, clarity, and spiritual downloads

• Energetic cleansing and alignment

• Vibrational lightening, and auric clearing

 
Bring: If you have a preferred Yoga mat or blanket, pillow, eye mask (optional), water bottle, please feel free to bring them, there will be yoga mats and cushions provided by the studio. The only thing required is an open mind. Dress in comfortable layers.
​
(Doors open 15 minutes early for settling in. Event starts promptly and doors will be closed.)
​
Spaces are limited to 16, so reserve now!
I look forward to rejuvenating with you soon.
May the peace of the divine walk beside you.

What we focus on influences what develops. 

Ancient Chinese teachings have long recognized that what we hold in our attention, repeatedly speak, chant, or visualize can shape what we experience and become. Similar principles appear in metaphysical, spiritual, and shamanic traditions around the world. 

Tao Science offers a contemporary framework for understanding this principle. 

Quantum scientists use detectors to gather information about the systems they study. Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha and quantum physicist Rulin Xiu, PhD, describe the human metaphysical heart in a similar way - as a receiver or detector of information from the fields with which we connect. 

This leads to a powerful principle: 
Where we place our focus - what we consciously connect with - can help transform what develops and manifests in our lives. 

The Sha Research Center has explored these principles in research with real people, reporting statistically significant changes in the areas of human well-being and functioning.

In this experiential gathering, you can bring a request for something you would like to transform or develop - perhaps physical or emotional well-being, clarity of mind, financial flourishing, increased intelligence, or something uniquely important to you. 

You will then be guided in experiencing several ways of focusing your attention while connecting with a Tao Calligraphy - created to radiate high-frequency Source information, energy, and light for the heart to receive. 

Move beyond understanding the concept intellectually and explore it through direct experience. 

● What are you detecting? 
● What are you connecting with? 
● What are you inviting to develop?

The Harvest Moon has long been welcomed as a companion to the harvest, its bright evening light helping extend the work of gathering the season's abundance. It reminds us that our own lives move through seasons as well, offering moments to pause, reflect, celebrate what has flourished, and gently release what has fulfilled its purpose.
We'll begin with a guided EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) meditation to help quiet the mind, soften emotional burdens, and gather the wisdom of your own inner harvest with gratitude and compassion. From there, you'll be immersed in a restorative sound bath featuring crystal singing bowls, chimes, hypnotic percussion, and other resonant instruments, creating a space for deep relaxation, reflection, and renewal.

Whether you're honoring personal growth, seeking clarity for the season ahead, or simply longing for a peaceful evening of rest, this Harvest Moon gathering invites you to reconnect with yourself, embrace the gifts of the changing season, and leave feeling grounded, nourished, and open to whatever comes next.
All humans and all experience levels welcome and treasured. Bring whatever comfort items you wish such as mat or blanket, however there will be some items to borrow.

Charlie Short is a professional musician and Certified Sound Practitioner whose work bridges music theory, acoustic science, and intuitive guidance to compose immersive sound journeys. Each experience is intentionally crafted through harmonic relationships, rhythm, resonance, and entrainment to support nervous system regulation while meeting the unique energy of the group.  charliesoundpractice.com

The ancient practice of Qigong (chi kung) serves as a foundation for Traditional Chinese Medicine. As we enter the season of Autumn, the organs of the Lung and Large Intestine are primed for healing. Both are considered organs of elimination. Where might we be holding on too tight – how can we let go? The Lungs hold the emotion of Grief. Utilizing our time together, we consider the presence of sorrow in our own life and in the world. Known as a "moving meditation," we will utilize gentle Qigong forms that will assist to activate and unblock the flow of energy in the body. Utilizing breath and mindful intention, we will take this time to learn a practice of moving that energy and open up the Lungs. We create personal and group healing as we build communal chi. No experience necessary. Chairs provided. Learn more at www.BuildingQi.com
​
Wear comfortable clothing that will allow for range of movement. It is preferable not to eat for an hour before the event. Avoid over-caffeinating. Arrive in time to settle in.

Within every lineage are individuals who carried wisdom, guidance, courage, healing, and insight. Although their names and stories may sometimes be forgotten, their influence can remain within the family line.

The practice is intended to deepen trust in inner guidance while cultivating a greater sense of ancestral connection, wisdom, and support.

After establishing a relationship with both the maternal and paternal branches of the ancestral tree, we are ready to journey deeper.
 
In this deep guided meditation, participants move beyond the more immediate generations and descend toward the deeper roots of their lineage — exploring the foundations beneath individual family stories and reconnecting with the larger ancestral stream from which they emerged.
 
The journey invites participants to explore their place within the family tree, the deeper sources of strength that have travelled through generations, and the experience of belonging to something much larger than one individual lifetime.
 
Focus:
• Exploring the deeper roots of the lineage
• Moving beyond the immediate generations
• Understanding your place within the family story
• Connecting with inherited strength and resilience
• Deepening the experience of ancestral belonging
 
Outcome:
A deeper experience of rootedness, continuity, perspective, and connection with one's ancestral lineage.

Families pass down much more than names, traditions, and physical characteristics.
 
Beliefs, fears, expectations, roles, and ways of responding to life can also move quietly from one generation to another. Sometimes we find ourselves repeating patterns whose origins we do not fully understand.
 
Through deep guided meditation, participants explore recurring patterns within their family tree and begin recognizing the invisible loyalties and inherited expectations that may continue to influence their present lives.
 
The purpose is not to reject our families or our past, but to become conscious of what we have inherited — honoring what strengthens us while creating space to release what no longer needs to continue.
 
Focus:
• Repeating family patterns
• Inherited beliefs and expectations
• Family roles and identities
• Invisible loyalties between generations
• Separating inheritance from personal choice
 
Outcome:
Greater awareness of inherited influences and greater freedom to consciously choose what we wish to carry forward.

Tickets sliding scale: $45 to $115
​
Many of the patterns we struggle with as adults did not begin as problems. They began as protection.
​
The perfectionist, the control freak, the overthinker, the fixer, and the people pleaser are not just habits or personality traits. They are often old survival patterns that formed when a younger part of us was trying to feel safe, loved, accepted, seen, or in control.
​
In this experiential one-day workshop, Intuitive Life Coach, Psychic Medium, Elias Patras and Inner Child Coach and Reiki Master, Cameron Heath will guide participants through a healing journey of awareness, reflection, inner child connection, intuition, Reiki, and sound healing. Together, we will explore how these patterns show up in our adult lives, how they may have affected the inner child, how they can quiet or confuse the inner voice, and how we can begin to move through them with compassion, clarity, and self-trust.
​
Attendees will be guided through reflective exercises, journaling, intuitive awareness practices, inner child connection, Reiki with Cameron Heath, and sound healing with Yesenia Rauch.
​
This workshop is not about blaming the past or fixing what is “wrong” with you. It is about understanding the parts of you that learned to protect you, listening more deeply to your inner voice, and creating a new relationship with yourself.
​
The sliding scale is offered to make this workshop more accessible. Attendees are invited to choose the amount that feels honest and supportive for them.
​
Please bring: a journal, a pen, and a rock that fits comfortably in your hand. This does not need to be a healing stone. It can be a river rock, a stone from your yard, or a simple rock you find on the street.
This workshop is for anyone who is ready to stop abandoning themselves through old patterns, reconnect with the younger parts that still need compassion, and begin trusting the inner voice that has been there all along.

Angels embody unconditional love.

Unconditional love means that no matter what has happened, or what has not happened, we are loved. While we often view our lives through the lens of worth and deserving, the angels see us only with unconditional love. They know us intimately and love us fully. The goal of this workshop is to create space for more good in our lives. We will engage with the angels and ask them to heal every aspect of our lives, such as anxiety, agitation and fear. We will do this by first clearing the energy of our encounters and environments with Archangel Michael, followed by connecting with healing angels, such as Archangel Raphael. We will use simple and repeatable techniques throughout. A fascinating aspect of working with angels is that our bodies respond instantly to their care, which strengthens our relationship with them. We then have more access to freedom, confidence and expansion. Come and connect deeply with the angels and be filled up with love.

Mark Mezadourian is an intuitive specializing in connecting with angels and guides. Accessing spirituality with heart-centered practicality is the goal of his work. You are invited to visit his YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/MarkMezadourian) to access free recordings for empaths, healing, relaxation and building a relationship with the angels. You can also find recordings of angel experiences on Insight Timer (http://insig.ht/markmezadourian). For information on all events and intuitive readings, please visit www.markmezadourian.com.

Our relationship with the mother — whether close, complicated, distant, or absent — can leave a profound imprint on our emotional world.
 
It may influence how we experience love, safety, nurturing, belonging, self-worth, and our ability to receive care from others and ourselves.
 
In this deep guided meditation, participants explore the maternal relationship within the larger context of the ancestral tree. Rather than approaching the experience through blame, we look deeper — toward the mother, the women who came before her, and the circumstances and patterns that shaped the maternal line.
 
The journey creates an opportunity for understanding, emotional release, reconnection, and greater compassion toward both ourselves and our lineage.
 
Focus:
• The relationship with mother
• Emotional nourishment and safety
• Self-worth and self-acceptance
• Patterns carried through the maternal line
• Receiving support and allowing connection
• Healing and integration
 
Outcome:
Greater emotional clarity, self-compassion, inner stability, and a deeper understanding of the maternal lineage.

Come gather in singing sacred names and shared devotion. Kīrtan is a joyful, heart opening call and response chanting practice that uplifts the spirit, invites connection within ourselves, with each other and with the divine. All voices welcome, exactly as you are, no experience needed

Based in Portland, Kana Hattori is a devotional singer and kīrtan leader who offers this practice as a path of joy, bliss, devotion and deep emotional honesty from lived experience and deep gratitude. 
Kīrtan carried her through some of the most challenging seasons of her life, becoming a source of strength, refuge, trust and renewal. 
Now she shares it regularly in community, holding gentle, heart-centered spaces where all voices are welcome. 
​
Rooted in Bhakti, guided by heart, her offerings invite others to connect deeply within themselves, with each other and with the sacred, and to discover the joy, healing that awaken when we sing together, remembering that our own voices are medicine, and that devotion can be both powerful and tender.

 Join us for a restful and healing end of week Raven Medicine Sound Bath.
​
The Raven – revered across shamanic traditions as a powerful messenger between worlds, master of transformation, keeper of secrets, and harbinger of profound change – is my guide, and our guiding light for this work. Grounding shamanic drumming to attune us to the land and our heartbeat. Deep Gong tones to stir the deep energies in us, and prepare our transformation. The ethereal tones from crystal singing bowls to carry us into the ether. Gentle guided intention to invite personal metamorphosis, insight, and release of what no longer serves us.
​
We will gather, set our prayers and intentions, and then you can simply lie down (or sit comfortably) in a supported, sacred space while being enveloped in waves of healing sound and vibration.

No prior experience is needed – just come with an open heart and allow the Raven’s medicine to work in you.
​
What to expect:
​

• Profound relaxation and nervous system reset

• Emotional release, clarity, and spiritual downloads

• Energetic cleansing and alignment

• Vibrational lightening, and auric clearing

 
Bring: If you have a preferred Yoga mat or blanket, pillow, eye mask (optional), water bottle, please feel free to bring them, there will be yoga mats and cushions provided by the studio. The only thing required is an open mind. Dress in comfortable layers.
​
(Doors open 15 minutes early for settling in. Event starts promptly and doors will be closed.)
​
Spaces are limited to 16, so reserve now!
I look forward to rejuvenating with you soon.
May the peace of the divine walk beside you.
