Native People recognize that all of nature is sacred. We exist in a web of life, with spirit residing all around - in the earth, the rocks, the sky, the trees, the plants. And life proceeds in spirals, transformational cycles with- no beginning and no end. People attending this workshop will learn about Native American ceremonial ways and experience a deep sense of the sacred. This will be felt and experienced, not merely learned about cognitively. A series of experiential exercises will guide you towards knowing, deep inside you, the sacredness of Grandmother Earth and the inter-relatedness of life. You will learn heart / intuitive ways of relating stones, trees, animals and each other. And you will have opportunities to develop meaningful rituals for your life. Workshop Leader: Grandfather Sings-Alone, a Cherokee healer, spiritual leader, and storyteller, has been a practicing ceremonialist for nearly 40 years. Widely respected among the people, Grandfather Sings-Alone is part of the Georgia Tribe of Eastern Cherokee Indians. He founded the Free Cherokees, an intertribal cultural organization, in the late 80's. Last summer Spirits told him to teach his spiritual concepts outside the Native American community.
