Bringing more awareness to some of these factors can help this process along both in ourselves and when supporting others.nnTogether we’ll explore factors such as healthy attachment, self-esteem, clear boundaries, clarity of purpose, and ability to accurately perceive and care for others. We’ll approach the lesson with respect for the pervasive occurrence of physical and sexual abuse, social injustices, and complex forms of relational trauma.nnIn this module, you’ll:nnDiscover ways to call on ancestral support for your personal growth edgesnExplore the relationship of ancestral healing to personal, familial, and cultural self-worthnConsider your own attachment style and learn to anticipate how this will show up when relating with your ancestorsnDiscuss similarities and differences between psychotherapy and ancestral healing as approaches to wholenessnPractice asking your ancestors to bring healing remedy to areas of personal pain and vulnerabilitynModule 2: Reclaiming Ancestral Identity, Culture & Ritual Practices (February 18)nnRelating with the older ancestors raises questions about cultural identity and the possibility of engaging in older ways of knowing. Sometimes these traditions are partially intact or practiced by living representatives, and sometimes the lineages have been completely broken, remembered only by the ancestors themselves.nnUnder the guidance of the ancestors, we’ll inquire about ways to engage older traditions with integrity, pragmatism, and ritual effectiveness. We’ll approach this inquiry in ways that are mindful about cultural loss and not overly Eurocentric.nnIn this module, you’ll:nnBe given strategies for researching what is still knowable about your ancestral traditionsnExplore the importance of food, land, and the natural world in cultural recoverynExamine the differences between arrogance, racial essentialism, colonialism, racism, and just regular healthy cultural pridenDiscuss the complexities and inevitable heartache when traditions are interrupted, distorted, or lostnPractice bringing specific blessings forward along the lineage into present time and awarenessnnModule 3: Dreams, Synchronicities & Spontaneous Ancestral Contact (February 25)nnThe dead speak in many ways, both during waking time and in dreaming time, and many of these pathways of communication occur spontaneously, outside of the designated space of ancestor-focused ritual. Many of our own ancestors welcomed these regular contacts, yet many today were not raised with even basic skills to navigate spontaneous ancestral outreach.nnWith the backing of the ancestors, we’ll inquire about ways to welcome direct contact while in different states and for different reasons. Our time will include consideration of unhelpful and frightening contact from the troubled dead.nnIn this module, you’ll:nnExamine beliefs from your family and cultures of origin on ancestral contact as well as ways in which the ancestors have already been in touchnDiscover ways to work safely and skillfully with both troubling and welcome dreams of the deadnDiscuss the role of synchronicity and how to receive these types of ancestral contacts in an easeful waynPractice asking the ancestors for assistance in expanding the ways that you currently relate with them in your everyday lifenModule 4: Preparing With the Ancestors for Your Own Death (March 11)nnMany of us were raised in cultures that avoid the topic of death and minimize talk of the next reality. In contrast, the ancestors are expert guides in this terrain, experienced at dying and traversing the worlds beyond. Together we’ll speak of the inevitable transformation and invite the ancestors to help educate and prepare us on what we can expect when our time arrives.nnIn this module, you’ll:nnDiscuss assumptions about the next reality and your own journey upon death of the bodynReflect on your personal experiences with death and dying as well as the role of the ancestors in those momentsnExplore practical preparations, funeral customs, and practices for honoring the body after deathnAsk the ancestors to help you nicely inquire about how to be more prepared for your own death and what’s beyondnnRead more:Salepage
