Journey for the spirit guide & guided shamanic breathwork
Spirit guides, sometimes also called guardian angels, have roots in many cultures and religions throughout the world. Spirit guides are also now used in modern psychotherapy and therapeutic models such as internal family systems, (IFS). Within these models the spirit guide is seen as an individuated, wise and all-knowing part of the psyche. In the shamanic world the spirit guide is seen as the former but also a separate, autonomous and familiar spirit being that has by arrangement come to work with us in this lifetime.
After the journey and introduction to the spirit guide, we then work directly with the guide in a gentle but deep shamanic breath-work session. Breathwork is a powerful way of “getting ourselves out of the way” so that a deeper level of work can be experienced.
Soul Retrieval
In the Soul Retrieval process we work with a limiting belief or repeating pattern that is keeping you stuck. You will do a shamanic journey into the Lower World, the world of the unconscious mind. You visit the cave of the original wound, then the cave of the contract made at the time of the wounding (in order to survive), the cave of the lost soul part (the part that was split off at the time of the wounding in order to be safe) and the cave of gifts with a gift whose qualities might assist you in your life right now, then on the way out of the underworld you see a creature with qualities that might be of service.
In the second part of the process you investigate what you received. The first intention of the work is to rewrite the contract from thisday forward. The second intention is to reunite the lost soul part, which we (or our ancestors) split off for its protection, within the psyche. The gift and the power animal have qualities that may help us as we move to a new way of being, living by the new contract and integrating the lost soul part.
Fire Ritual
The fire ritual has been and continues to be of huge significance to shamans and other healers around the world, who believe that we can give things to the fire for closure; take things from the fire in renewal; and feed our energies from the fire.
Despacho (Offering)
The kausay pacha is the energy of the living universe and the pampa mesayoq shamans are experts at making wonderful offerings. These offerings can be made for any significant undertaking – but in the workshop we would do an ayni despacho to help bring us into ayni – which means right relationship with ourselves, others and the universe. After being created it is burned, sending the prayers and blessings of the despacho into the kausay pacha with the energy of the fire.
Individual Shamanic Residential Intensives
Testimonials from previous participants in our intensives:
'I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the work you have done for me. You have changed my life and the lives of our dearests. Thank you, thank you, thank you.'
'The time with you was extraordinary and I am SO glad I came and that you received me with such open hearts.'
'My time with you and George has been instrumental in a huge initiation I moved through in the latter part of 2021. Whatever we released together was so powerful as this activation has been mind-blowing. I feel completely new. I don't have the thought patterns I did before. Or the fears. It's been so liberating.'
'In your presence and within the process of the treatments I felt free like I never have felt, and safe which I have also never felt, and this brings tears as I write now, because it was so amazing for me to have felt that with you.'
'My time and work with you, has affected me deeply. I have lived for a long time with huge underlying fear and a draining homesickness even when I'm at home or close to people. Never have I felt so free of those feelings as I did when I was with you doing that healing work.'
'The 2.5 days with you were amazing! I have to say that you are incredible hosts - I felt at home and comfortable from the moment I landed there. I gained immense value from many of the things we did whether that's the identification of roles, breath work, soundbed, soul retrieval, ancestor work, death & rebirth...the list goes on.'
'Thank you both for an amazing 48 life affirming and life changing hours. You hold a very safe, sacred and loving space. And you are both such great listeners. Thank you Evelyn for being so adaptable that a 'talking to the body' morphed into a regression, into release of a suffering being with no apparent loss of beat, and George thank you for an amazingly joyful experience of sounding my voice.'
Retreats by the sea
Would you like to pamper yourself with two or more healing treatments and a couple of days at the coast, 5 minutes walk from Rottingdean beach and two minutes walk from the Beacon Windmill Nature Reserve?
For these retreats we invite you to stay for one night in our home in Rottingdean and take advantage of the beautiful location. You will have a private bedroom and bathroom and we ask you to choose at least two from the following ‘menu’ of options:
A two hour healing session with Evelyn, working with cord cutting, the removal of psychic daggers, soul retrieval and body work, £100
A two hour healing session with George, working with deep cleansing of attachments, breathwork and sound healing, £100
A 90 minute joint session with Evelyn and George to work with a family issue or an intention using a constellations approach ‘in the Field’, £120
A 90 minute joint session to have a Death and Rebirth in Life experience, which may involve cutting cords with dead ancestors as well as completing any unfinished business so you can step into a new way of being, £120
Vegetarian or Vegan Lunch, £10
Bed and Vegetarian or Vegan Breakfast, £60
For the remainder of the time outside of the sessions you will be free to walk on the Downs or go to the beach, meditate in your own space or even get the bus into Brighton. We would just ask you to fix the appointment times for the sessions when you book your mini-retreat, as we will potentially be seeing other clients on the days when you are with us. This differs from the residential intensives when you are working with us almost constantly (except for sleeping time) for the duration of your stay. During these intensives we do not take any other clients and you have our undivided attention.
