Discover Yourself Series for teens and young adults
- Do I belong?
- Am I welcome "here"?
- Do I feel satisfied about my life?
- Who am I?
This fall discover your path to self-wisdom, find your inner
guide, call forth your creativity, passion, and purpose.
The Discover Yourself Series involves four mini-workshops that offer an intense, heartfelt experience with other young people who desire a deeper contact with themselves while in a group experience.
 Within a collaborative, safe space, we'll be:
- taking a shamanic journey (and locating our power animal),
- sharing our personal stories using mandalas,
- making/activating a labyrinth,
- and locating our strengths and activating them on prayer flags to create the best next thing for ourselves (see more detail below).
You'll have FUN, be part of an exciting learning experience, meet new people, and discover more about who you are.
Discover Yourself Series helps you explore your deepest questions about who you are and where you are headed through ritual, collaborative
and individual experiences,  guided meditations, and creative exercises using various art mediums and traditional forms, including music (hip hop to Native American), drumming, drawing, and personal story telling.
All materials will be provided. All sessions will be held at 4365 Ridgeway Drive, Los Alamos, New Mexico, in the comfortable but intimate space of my healing room. There is access to the outdoors, and the workshop schedule allows for breaks and reflection, as well as hands-on activities.

More about the mini-workshops:
Discover Mandalas
The mandala is an object of personal meditation or it can a global
symbol of peace and unity, a container to hold diversity in oneness—
it can also be seen as a "soul pattern" or signature of who you are at any given moment.
Did you know a snowflake can be considered a mandala? Each one unique and precious in the universe; stare at one on a windowpane and you can get your whole perspective altered!
The mandala is not a 'representation': it IS YOU—a mirror of the world within you and without you. Mandalas can alter your state of consciousness and allow you to become aware of yourself in new, fresh, deeper ways.
We will be looking at the special and unique qualities about ourselves that emerge when we encounter the form of the mandala—and also the things we have in common that create belonging for us.

Discover the Medicine Wheel
 The medicine wheel is a traditional way to understand who you are through using geometry as a container for working with the deeper self. The four directions represent the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual bodies, and their energies are integrated within a circle or wheel.
The wheel is always in motion and so are we—and yet there is a stillness at the center if we know how to find it. And we need that stillness within to have clarity of purpose and to take right action.
We'll be exploring totem animals too—find the animal that guides and protects you in the wheel of life (wolf? badger? mosquito? bear?)! This is a very empowering experience and will last a lifetime.

Discover Prayer Flags
What are prayers? What forms can they take? Prayer flags are a way to capture sounds, images, and self-expressions and offer them to the world in a vibrant and energetic way—let the wind carry your dreams to every nook and cranny of the world! Hang up your flags and put yourself out in the world without ever getting out of bed!
Caution: making prayer flags is somewhat addicting. You will be exploring your strengths, then making a set of unique prayer flags to confirm your intentions, and putting it out into the world (or offering it to a friend).

Discover Labyrinths
The labyrinth is a form that allows a person physically, mentally, and emotionally to wind and unwind in a particular pattern that alters the circuitry of the brain, creating cohesion and resolving opposites—it can be a means of unravelling the challenges of situations that keep us in tension or even inaction.
We'll be making our own 6 circuit labyrinth and activating it with stones and crystals. Then we'll be setting an intention and walking our path inwards and back out to see what may transform or be different within us!
