This three-part series offers a gentle yet profound journey into the world of your ancestors. We will explore the deep and ongoing connection between our lives and their presence, discovering how understanding our lineage can bring a sense of belonging and solace.

​

Workshop 1 (June 14, 9:30 AM - 11 AM): 

Gentle Introduction to Ancestral Connection

This first workshop serves as a gentle introduction to connecting with your ancestors. We will explore the idea of ancestral lineage and how our ancestors influence our lives. Through guided reflection and a simple honoring ritual, you'll learn how to acknowledge and begin to connect with your ancestors of blood. We will also introduce the concept of our four primary blood lineages (maternal grandmothers, maternal grandfathers, paternal grandmothers, paternal grandfathers) as a foundation for deeper exploration in the following workshops. This session will include introductory ancestral connection practices.

​

Workshop 2 (Saturday, July 12, 9:30 AM - 11 AM): Connecting Through Creativity: An Experiential Workshop

Building upon our introductory session, this workshop will delve into the powerful role of creativity in connecting with your ancestors. Through simple guided art-making experiences, you will explore different ways to engage with your lineage through creative expression. This experiential session will help you tap into intuitive insights and foster a deeper, more embodied connection with your ancestors through various artistic mediums. No prior art experience is necessary – just a willingness to explore!

​

Workshop 3 (Saturday, August. 9, 9:30 AM - 11 AM):

Honoring Your Lineage: Building an Ancestor Altar

In our final workshop, we will focus on tangible ways to honor and connect with your ancestors through the creation of an ancestor altar. We will explore the many forms an ancestor altar can take and discuss meaningful objects and elements to include. You will learn practical steps and considerations for building an altar that resonates with your personal beliefs and intentions, creating a dedicated space for remembrance, connection, and receiving guidance.
