We’re getting all sorts of excited about our keynote speaker, Carley Mattimore! Carley’s keynote will be “Awakening Shamanic Consciousness: A New Birth.” Our element for the Spring Retreat will be Air and the direction honored will be East. Registration information is found on page 5 of Voice of Women Newsletter 2018 Spring and at www.uuwomensconnection.org

Carley teaches shamanic breathwork. She is a reiki master. How best to honor our element of Air than with Carley who will share with us her knowledge of becoming an important part of this element.

We are in heightened times of great change amidst great chaos where all we have known seems to be crumbling and dismantling before our eyes. We may feel panic, fear, futility or numbness as the turbulence unfolds around us. Yet there is higher perspective that can support us in trusting the unfolding as we prepare for a new birth of humanity. This perspective is symbolized by the Air cycle of shamanic consciousness; a deeper understanding of how we move through change. Carley Mattimore will guide us in exploring the cycles of change using our breath to support us as we assimilate this death and rebirth in our personal and collective consciousness.
