Medicine Dreaming
Medicine Stories
As we come to a deeper understanding of our authentic selves, we often discover that profound stories emerge from the examination of our lives. There are moments when we realize that what we perceived as mundane, everyday events are, when viewed from a different perspective, narratives of vision and power that are shimmering in our path. Moving into a life that is informed and guided by this understanding transforms the circumstances of our experience into a potent medicine that holds unlimited healing potential for ourselves and others. Being witnessed and learning to witness others in this transformation creates a community container that strengthens our commitment to this as an ongoing practice.
This is a class for both experienced writers and beginners, working in any genre. Some stories are meant to be written and some told orally; explorations of both forms will be honored in this group. Each class will begin with a short teaching and then there will be time in class to write, share, and discuss the sacred stories that arise.
This ongoing class is limited to 15 participants, with a six-session commitment. Two Thursdays per month, 6pm to 8:30pm pacific time. If you are interested, please reach out for more information and to discuss whether this circle is a good fit for you.
In this circle we will explore the dreams that come to us as individuals and as a group. Though there is value in the personal, psychological understanding of dreams, this will not be our focus here. Indigenous peoples and shamanic communities have long understood that dreams come to individuals to guide and teach them in the paths that the spirits and ancestors are calling their attention to. The dreams are portals through which healing comes, both on behalf of the individual and the community. Holding this as our guiding principle, each session will begin with a short teaching, and then the participants will share their dreams and communally contemplate the field of dreams that emerges, seeking to deepen our understanding of what medicine each participant, and the entire group, is being called to hold and develop at this time.

There is great benefit in entering into learning opportunities with others. Community is a powerful source of medicine and learning together can deepen your personal process dramatically. Classes are small enough to feel intimate while brimming with the combined energy of others’ ideas and brilliance. Exploring together in a supportive environment may also strengthen and reinforce the new ways of holding your soul’s calling and authenticity that you are discovering.
