The wisdom of connection with our ancestral lineage has been present in most of the cultures all over the world. For many reasons, us westerners have experienced a separation from that wisdom and lack a relationship that often we are not even aware that we're missing until we feel it.
In this online workshop in two parts, we will be coming back to that knowledge, reconnecting in a safe and supportive way and exploring what it means to be in reciprocity in the relationship with our ancestors.
Through different practices, we will be remembering, opening the door for support, giving back the acknowledgment, respect and gratitude we are able and willing to give and learning how to be in connection with the enormous energy field of support at our back. We will be asking the questions What kind of support do I need from my ancestors? What if I don't know them or don't like them? Why is this relationship important? What does it mean to be in connection with the ancestral lineage? What are the gifts that I carry from them?
This workshop will be in two parts - 1st part October 28, 2nd part November 4th
It is not possible to apply for a single session.
TOPICS:
- shamanic journey to meet your ancestors

About Anna:
Anna Sierpowska practitioner, student and teacher, I derive my energy and knowledge from many years of practicing and training deep conscious movement. The path of conscious movement is marked by Movement Medicine - contact with the body and nature of life, but also bodywork, fascial massage. The body is the house we live in, only a place on earth that we can have the greatest impact on by how we live every day. Working with the body gives tremendous power in life - in my practice I also include therapeutic work in the current of A. Lowen's Bioenergetic Analysis, leading groups and therapeutic consultations. I am based in Warsaw, Poland and also work abroad.
About Kaya:
Kaya works as an integrative body-oriented psychotherapist and Movement Medicine teacher Zagreb, Croatia. She is one of the four founders of Center Meleta, center for integrative body oriented psychotherapy and well-being.
Kaya has been working individually and in groups with adults and adolescents for many years and has been practicing body-oriented psychotherapy for over a decade.
As this type of therapy is based on the process work and presence of the soul in the body, training in Movement Medicine was another step on her journey of supporting the embodiment of the soul. These two practices are continuously enriching both her and her offering and create a safe, rich and creative field for her students. She is continuously amazed with how the Spirit manifests through the wiring of our personalities.
Kaya also teaches Movement Medicine regularly- as monthly classes, weekend workshops and ceremonies.
