Shamanic Healing Ceremony & Teaching
Aligning Ourselves with Universal Forms of Creation
using focus, intention, prayer and sound healing
Illustration of prehistoric stone wheel, one of 50 or so that have been found, primarilly in the Great Plains of northern US and southern Canada that may be about 1800 years old predating today's Plains Indian cultures. It is unknown who built them. The stone spoked wheel is not used in today's tribal ceremonies. But since the 1980's, many people have received guidance to create stone circles as a way for all peoples to do ceremony in nature.

Physicist (Dan Winter) says, "Tribal ceremonies send heart energy out into the cosmos...these energies are amplified in an expanding wave and have the power to create stars."
Create sacred space, invoke powerful cosmic energies for new beginning. Timeless principles, honoring ways to work with intention, ceremony, energy based on 30 years experience. You bring your focused energy to the circle as tribal peoples have done through time. In this flow of energy, vibratory shift occurs. You may choose to be wrapped like a papoose to receive drum, earth and human energies & shamanic healing.
In this focused, reverent, powerful experience we learn and practice ancient, cross-cultural ways for working with spiritual energies and intention. Within our circle, we create a magnetic attraction which concentrates and consecrates the natural energies for the highest benefit of each participant and Mother Earth. We invoke powerful cosmic and earth healing energies for the benefit of all.
Sandra works with spirit to hold the space and provide shamanic insights/energy work. Each participant is invited to bring the power of their focus and intention to the ceremony and to practice energy work by flowing universal love through your being to the ones in the wheel.
Ceremony is the conscious use of symbols by humans combined with action. In this physical enactment, the symbol comes to life, movement is activated or acknowledged. The intangible becomes real, something we are part of.
The ceremony is led by Sandra Cosentino who has a life long relationship with wild nature and over 25 years experience with group wheel healing circles. Bear is one of the powerful spiritual allies she has relationship with that assist Sandra in these ceremonies. Cross-cultural ancient ways of working with nature from the heart inspire this ceremony and the gifted teachings of Berniece Falling Leaves and other wise medicine people.
Sandra uses her guidance, intuition and experience to bring these universal ways into a living, contemporary form for all people and are not copied from any of today's Native American tribal ceremonies. We are co-creating a new tribal way open to all people that is growing out each of our deepening relationship with the circle of life and evolving consciousness of life on Mother Earth.

"Aho, my name is David Singing Bear, Bear Who Sings, Singing Bear, Northern Cheyenne.
There's a medicine wheel on my reservation is in northern British Columbia, in Squallix. It's the oldest medicine wheel we know of in North America. This medicine wheel dates back thousands of years. The medicine wheel was there before the people that we know of now.
The medicine wheel represents the people and the universe. This medicine wheel is a reminder to the people to always live the way of the hoop, the way of the circle, the way of the people, the way of life.
It was put down in a remembrance to remind people always that life is a circle that the universe is a circle, that what goes around, comes around and what we put out comes back to us.
It is there to remind us to always be in balance and harmony with nature. It is there to remind us to find our place, our purpose in the universe and live this and then we are a whole person.
This medicine wheel has been used for thousands of years in these ways."
"Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle. The sky is round and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same and both are round. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood. And so it is in everything where power moves."
