SUMMARY:Shamanism Retreat: Keeping the Sacred Fire  April 29th – May 2nd
DESCRIPTION:Since ancient times, the sacred fire has represented the life force, transformation, consciousness, and the connection between the visible and invisible worlds. Keeping this flame alive means preserving our connection with nature, ancestral wisdom, and the deepest dimensions of our being.\n \nOver these two days, we will immerse ourselves in the world of shamanic practices through ceremonies and rituals inspired by different ancestral traditions, experiencing a profound connection with the four elements and the forces of nature that exist both within and around us.\n \nThrough practices such as Shamanic Drumming Journey, Ritual Trance Dance, Temazcal, Cacao Dance, and other rituals, we will explore different states of consciousness, opening the way to inner discovery, transformation, and an expanded perception of reality.\n \nThese practices invite us to journey beyond the usual boundaries of the rational mind, exploring the symbolic, archetypal, and spiritual dimensions of human experience. The rhythm of the drum, the movement of the body, the breath, sound, and the power of the elements become pathways to reconnect with our inner wisdom and the natural world.\n \nShamanism reminds us that we are part of a living, interconnected reality, where wisdom can be found in the trees, in the movement of the winds, in the depths of the earth, in the flowing waters, and in the transformative power of fire. It is an invitation to rediscover a more conscious relationship with nature, our ancestors, and the cycles of life, death, and rebirth.\n \nAbove all, Keeping the Sacred Fire is an invitation to keep alive the flame of consciousness, authenticity, and connection with the sacred, recognizing that true transformation is reflected in the way we live, feel, and relate to the world.\n \nAbout Facilitators\nRui Sebők Bizarro\nAfter several years of learning in Portugal, Spain and other cultures as the Amazon jungle of Brazil, Peru, USA and India, has been touched by different teachers, masters and facilitators whom so much taught and facilitated his process of self-knowledge and transformation.
