Mysticism, Indigenous Healing & Modern Encounters with Other Dimensions

There is a common thread of spiritual practices, beliefs, myths, and stories that began thousands of years ago and continue into modern times. This workshop will explore ancient religious and spiritual practices aimed to imitate the near-death experience to bring back spiritual or esoteric knowledge for the benefit of individual healing or the survival of a society. This workshop will also explore how our collective values have been molded and shaped by the rise of the scientific method, philosophical materialism, and industrialization and how these values are currently undergoing significant changes. A collective paradigm shift can help us transform the collective crises that we see emerging throughout the world into an opportunity to find new meaning and purpose in our daily lives.
