May classes and workshops.

Happy spring to you!

I hope you're enjoying the full range of our Montana spring weather! I was amazed and surprised to see all the lovely snow here in Helena. I'm greatful for the moisture and grateful that it is spring and it won't be lasting long! I've scheduled the first of several warmer weather field trips and look forward to getting out, exploring intuition, trance and communication in connection with the wonderful Montana landscape.

Following is an update of my upcoming classes.

May:

  • Helgate Field Trip - Helena.
  • Self-hypnosis in Helena.
  • Trance Drumming in Great Falls.
  • Trance Drumming in Whitefish.
  • Compassionate Communication in Whitefish.

You can read more about all these classes below.

Here's a poem new to me from David Whyte about openings and finding ourselves. (Thanks to Rachel!)

The Journey

Above the mountains the geese turn into a light again
painting their black silhouettes on an open sky.

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens
so you can find the one line already written inside you.

Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that
first, bright an dindiscribable wedge of freedom in your own heart.

Sometimes with the bones of the black sticks left when the fire has gone out
someone has written something new in the ashes of your life.

You are not leaving.
Even as the light fades quickly.
You are  arriving.

Please feel free to forward this message on to others you know who may be interested.

Blessings, good growing spring feelings to you all,

Patrick

 

Helgate Canyon - Spirit Guidance and Connection

May 10th, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm - Price: $60.00

Join us on this annual Field Trip to a beautiful canyon and pictograph site. A key concept or intenton of this field trip will be finding our own Spirit Guidance and Connection. We use the setting of this sacred landscape rich in a history of animal, elemental, and energetic connections to reawaken our own resources and affinities.

In this field trip, as with all the others I facilitate, we will be working with intention. We set an intent, then allow an opening for spirit, more subtle energies, or even our own higher consciousness to guide us into an unfolding of that intent. This field trip is an opportunity for you to deepen your own intuitive abilities for a clearer perception of 'active' or 'charged' spaces.
