This two day, highly experiential workshop teaches the principles and concepts of what the Medicine Wheel is really about; a personal Life mirror and guide of exceptional accuracy. It includes a detailed 42 page manual, and each participant works a Personal Healing Wheel in the class.

No previous knowledge of anything Native American is necessary to learn the Wheel.

Some of the Benefits:

• Change mental patterns and emotional core beliefs that bring about disease before it manifests. Create mental and emotional conditions most conducive to healing the body. Create robust physical and mental health through raised self awareness, esteem, confidence and motivation. Discover and recast unsupportive Lifepatterns, completely, finally, and independently.

• Maintain emotional balance regardless of what is happening. It is emotional energy that drives behavior, not intellect. If you want a better, more prosperous life, regardless of what is going on around you, this is the place to start: Learn to work with yourself instead of against yourself.

• Learn your financial strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots. Issues of worthiness and self-esteem will always express themselves outwardly, most commonly in physical and emotional health, financial, and relationships. Your most important relationship is with yourself: Do you respond to Life, or react to it?

• Past trauma creates and informs present fear and phobia, which influences all behavior. Learn how to reduce the emotional charge that still exists in ALL unresolved trauma, no matter how deeply repressed or far in the past.
