Shamanic Breath Work Process, Cedar falls, Iowa, 2012


Shamanic Breathwork Process Workshop
Deblyn Russell and Stephanie Schwinn will be facilitating 2 days of Shamanic Breath Work Process, on Saturday, September 22 and October 20, at the Unitarian Universalist Society, 3912 Cedar Heights Dr., in Cedar Falls, from 9:30 p.m. til 5:30 p.m.
Shamanic Breathwork is a powerful approach to self-exploration and healing. The process itself uses simple means.... it combines ritual, and meditation, with deep, cyclical breathing, chakra tuned music, art integration, scribing and group processing. In this process, each person uses their own breath and the music to enter a non-ordinary state of consciousness, that is organic, drug and alcohol free. This state activates the natural inner healing process of  the individual's psyche, bringing him or her, a unique set of internal experiences, images, colors, symbols, guides, etc., with the individuals inner healing intelligence guiding the process.
Cost per event, is $100 per person, sign up with a friend and get $25 off each registration or sign up for both workshops and get the $75 special on each workshop! Space is limited so pre-registration is suggested. For more information or to register, call Deblyn Russell at 319-939-2789 (email: deblynzart@cfu.net)  or Stephanie Schwinn at 319-504-6060.

Free introduction to Shamanic Breath Work Process, on Friday Sept. 21 and Oct. 19,
 from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m., at the Unitarian Universalist Society. A short breath work is included in this talk.

Sacred Ceremony and Ritual and the ARTz

There are many ways to bring the Divine closer to ourselves. One way is through ritual or the enactment of sacred ceremony. My spirituality is Universal - it encompasses a variety of religious and spiritual pursuits, with shamanic practice/earth based religion being my priamary spiritual path.
Ceremony, whether or not it's shamanic is typically magical, creative healing and provides a bridge between the material and spirit worlds. It is a "felt" demonstration of how the power of the universe works, and it provides an excellent way to honor all those events in our lives we want to sanctify. Participating in sacred ceremony helps us bring our being into alignment with the natural flow and rhythm of life.
Ceremonies that convey the substance of spirit into our minds and hearts can and should be part of everyones daily menu, no matter what religious creed you follow, or spiritual beliefs you hold.
I am available to help create and officiate at your sacred ceremony, from weddings, to healing ceremonies, to baby dedications, rites of passge, lunar cycles and seasonal ceremonies and funerals/celebrations of life.
Workshops, seminars, retreats, em'cee for special eventrs, and sacred ceremony events are on-going. Please contact me for more dates, information or to book your event!
