 Join "The Practical Shaman", Renee Baribeau, and transformational writing expert, Stephanie Gunning for a magical journey and writer’s quest in Peru where we will experience personal healing and collectively seek a vision for a new world order. This will be an experiential healing and transformational journey utilizing four levels of spiritual engagement, symbolic, metaphoric, physical, and energetic, to enter non-ordinary reality, and will evoke remembrance of our connection to the earth in a sacred landscape where we can source a new vision and feel our power as members of the human tribe.
 Do you write with your magical pen, crafting words that inspire healing and transformation for yourself and the world? Does the wind howl your name through the mountain pass, claiming you as a messenger of sacred text? Does the hummingbird in flight still the small voice within you as you quest for silence, truth, and inner knowing while living amidst chaos? Does the raging river cleanse your spirit body as it twists and turns through an ancient sacred valley? Are you willing to ride upon the back of the mythical Choca Chinqe (Rainbow Jaguar) as you move freely between the worlds? Then you are a shaman of the word, member of our proud ayllu, or lineage.
Are you ready to plant a new garden in your life and the world? Words are seeds of its creation. Allow Peru to become your colorful journal, pages rich in history, lined with powerful energies and potential. Utilizing the ancestral energies of sacred sites and mountains, you will revisit your personal medicine wheel to identify your contracts that are up for renewal and, with a four-step method for transformation that involves facilitated writing practices and ceremony, move gracefully into your creative potential as an authentic human being. You will have opportunity for silent reflection and group sharing. This vision quest will fertilize the ground of your being so that you can move beyond your personal wounding to an inspired global vision.
 Spend time with us in the Sacred Valley of Peru, a landscape which is alive with colour, rich in history, and filled with indigenous magic. Shatter the illusions of your life and reconnect with the natural environment, using shamanic healing technology and writing from non-ordinary reality, while you are exploring the ancient sites and mysteries of this foreign land.
Ours is a unique opportunity and invitation for earthkeepers, writers, shamans,and energy workers, offering a combination of written word practices and sacred ceremony undertaken on behalf of Pachamama and all creation. It is a gathering in resonance with likeminded souls.
During this journey we intend to uproot our investment in words and beliefs that no longer serve our collective transformation. We will write to tap into inner guidance and facilitate awakening, as we open up to our potential as homo luminous. Our world is in trauma and it is essential to heal ourselves individually to be of service to the collective. The shamans (Paqos) in the southern Andes engage in rites of passage to develop their medicine bodies, and during this journey local shamans will initiate you into their traditions. In truth, the entire journey is an initiation into the energy of rebirth and the wisdom available from the human-earth bond. beings.
If this is the world you wish to inhabit and record, we welcome you to journey with us.
