The time has come for each of us to become Earth magicians — to enter circles using powerful spiritual technologies to become new human beings. In silence, the love of our hearts will send forth a prayer for a new and radiant Earth. In celebration, the enchantment we create together will bring profound healing energy. We will gently and powerfully release old trauma through Brooke’s new tools, including somatic experiencing. Our hearts will lead the way, lifting us up on currents of love and light, creating a flowering of life on our Lady Gaia.
The challenge for many of us is that our natural, vital, sensitive, and fully intelligent selves have been numbed. This experiential gathering will focus on awakening our vital, useful, and truly joyful natural essence through releasing old unworkable patterns and turning our attention to the powerful and magical work that can be done to serve All Our Relations.
Brooke follows the Way of Beauty, a pathway to wholeness modeled by the natural world around us. The beginning of Autumn in the Berkshires is an exquisite time to experience the profound inspiration provided by radiant color. We will absorb the lessons of Mother Earth, become conscious carriers and creators of beauty, open to realms of Spirit and holiness. Find pleasure in dancing in joyful ceremony as well as spending quiet hours in mountain solitude. We’ll sing, dance, eat fabulous food, chant, drum, pray, be still, meet allies, sit in circle, and tune ourselves. Working in unity with Spirit-Alive-in-All-Things brings amazing vitality as we awaken our joyful natural essence.

She has studied modern structures to find the ancient truths of how to live a fully human life in harmony with All Our Relations. Her book, Buffalo Woman Comes Singing, traces her spiritual development. Her recent book, The Last Ghost Dance, offers profound information for living well in this challenging time and for creating a Golden Age on Mother Earth.
