Preparing
a Medicine Bundle
led by Eve Soldinger Date:
10am
July 7 - 10am July 8, 2007
(a 24-hour workshop)
Location:
Rio
Rico, AZ
Powerful
Medicine is all around us. There is the medicine of the plant, mineral and animal
worlds. Throughout history and in all cultures people gathered sacred objects
from each category and combined them to create medicine. Combining these energies
creates a unique matrix and energetic spiritual resonance. One form is the Medicine
Bundle.
Preparing a medicine bundle is a sacred task. The Bundle is for oneself and for
one's community. In this workshop, you will take the opportunity to do the rituals,
prayers and shamanic journeying to empower yourself and create the medicine bundle
as your own earth medicine.
Much of the gathering of materials will take place before the workshop begins.
All objects must represent the different elements, and be of spiritual significance
for you, whether seeds, skins, crystals, flowers, tobacco, arrowheads, rocks,
or bones. The bundle itself can be made of heavy fabric or buckskin.
Please note that this is a 24-hour workshop. There will be adequate time to rest.
However, sacred work will continue through the night to energize the bundle and
to perform prayers and journeys to discover your own medicine.
We will gather at a ranch in Rio Rico, 45 minutes south of Tucson, where the energy
of the land will support the work. Come prepared to share preparation of food.
Water will be provided. For

Healing
the Fire Within
with Eve Soldinger Date:
August
25-26, 2007, 10am-5pm
Location:
Rio
Rico, AZ
Cost:
$195
Within
nature the interplay of the elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water is
one of constant change, creating and generating new cycles. It is a reflection
of the cycles of growth that we also experience during our own journeys. The fire
element provides the possibility of warmth, connection, communication, joy, and
the heart. It is through this element we know and hold our hearts.
In Healing the Fire Within, you will take the inner journey to the fire
element. Through shamanic journeying, meditation techniques, and holding the flow
of this element, you will learn to discern and discover the path towards healing
your heart wounds, know your heart's nature, and discover ways to allow your inner
joys and desires to unfold. The
Shamanic approach uses the guidance of spirit to retrieve information from extra-ordinary
reality. By sitting and standing in different postures for journeying, you will
find different routes toward healing, metamorphosis, and guidance for spiritual
awakening. You can use this information for releasing old patterns, both emotional
and karmic, to find soul parts long preserved for retrieval at this perfect moment.
You will reconnect to the essence of your spiritual being and find the sacred
within yourself. The
workshop will use a variety of methods to explore your inner landscape. You will
learn to transfer the information you receive into practical applications for
your every day life and to help heal others. Registration
is required prior to the workshop. We will meet on a ranch in Rio Rico, 45 minutes
south of Tucson, where we will experience all the elements at play around us.

Psychic
Protection Workshop with Eve Soldinger Date:
September
15-16, 2007
Time:
10AM-5PM
Location:
Rio
Rico, AZ
Cost:
$175
This
workshop is for the individual who usually feels that they are 'too' sensitive.
Do you feel what is happening with other people as you walk down the street or
stand in a check out line? Do you walk into a room and know the kind of havoc
that was there before? Does it take all your energy sometimes just to stand despite
the pain in the world? Are you exhausted by the end of the day just dealing with
the endless stream of information you receive? In
this workshop you will have the opportunity to see this sensitivity as a welcome
gift instead of a difficult burden. You will learn to reestablish your needed
foundation and boundaries while understanding the nature and scope of what you
sense and feel. You will have the opportunity to examine what is your intuition
and what turns into your own worry and fear and how to work with it. And you will
learn how to take your information to the natural flow and balance for yourself
and others. We will accomplish these goals through exercises, discussion and meditative
practices. Please expect to make changes in how you interact with the world.
We
will gather at a ranch in Rio Rico, 45 minutes south of Tucson, where the energy
of the land will support the work. Please bring your lunch. If you will be traveling
for the workshop, please contact Eve about accommodations.

the guidance of traditional elders of Peru and Bolivia, we will take a magical
and healing journey to some of the ancient holy sites in South America. On this

who held the land sacred prior to the Incan civilization.
We

significance. We then explore nearby the Pachacamac Archeological Project, an

from the hands of the Spaniards, we will explore and honor the great civilization
of the Incas.
From Machu Picchu we will fly to Juliaca an make our way down to Lake Titicaca,
where it is believed the sun and moon were born. At the Island of the Sun and
the Island of the Moon we will perform a ceremony and discover the meaning of
this sacred area of Bolivia. And last we will visit Tiawanaku, which is a sacred
site of the ancestors prior to the Incan civilization.  Don
Alejandro Perez Oxlaj, will join us on this journey, available for support
and guidance. Don Alejandro, whose Mayan name is Wakatel Utiw, Wandering Wolf,
is the 13th generation in a lineage of Mayan Medicine People. He received his
sacred bundle at the age of 13. He is president of the National Mayan Council
of Elders of Guatemala, a body of 440 men and women elders of wisdom who represent
23 Mayan ethnic groups of Guatemala. He was instrumental in creating the reunion
of Indigenous Elders and Priests of Americas and is known as the Grand Elder of
the Americas. Don Alejandro holds the wisdom of the Mayan Cosmology and travels
the world sharing the Mayan prophecies on the major earth changes coming in this
millennium. He is a medicine man and works as a catalyst for healing on global

A
Message from Eve  It
is my pleasure to do the support work for Don Alejandro and Elizabeth to have
this journey come into being. I have traveled with Tata many times and what I
have come to know is that it is always about healing. The journeys catalyze changes
helpful as a way to come into greater being and centeredness within oneself, greater
consciousness, and to begin new relationships with the sacred. What
we have proposed in the schedule is just that - a proposal. We will be taking
a spiritual journey and a pilgrimage, with a great and generous leader. Don Alejandro
may decide to change some of the plans acting on the knowledge of spirit. Coming
on the journey is sure to instill a sense of trust in him as a leader and trust
in spirit guiding us.
Please join us with your open hearts and prepare for a great spiritual adventure.
