​

Note: This program is offered as: a series of seven individual one-day sessions. The timing will be established during a private consultation to review the program. 

 

Mandala Chakra Medicine Wheel honors the sacred circle of life as a process of self-discovery, personal healing and inner transformation. This cross-cultural approach weaves ancient wisdom teachings and indigenous traditions with your personal stories, held within the seven chakras. Stones (khuya's), collected from nature, will form the foundation of a personal medicine bundle (mesa collectivo) that will help to ground and focus as you honor and shift your stories. By establishing a sacred relationship with nature we create balance (ayni) within ourself and our world. By shifting our perceptions and setting clear boundaries we empower our self to see with our heart and our eyes. From this place of awareness we can shift our reality and move through the fear that prevents us from speaking our truth.

Sacred Pathways

​

Glossary​:

​

Mesa/Misa - Spanish word meaning "altar". In the mystical Andean tradition a mesa is a personal medicine bundle consisting of a mestana cloth and khuya's along with other sacred objects. A mesa collectivo is a collection of our stories that are held in the khuya's. Creating a mesa is a process of reconnection and reciprocity. 

​

Mestana - Traditional Andean/Peruvian weavings, made of alpaca, llama and or sheep's wool. Different aspects of the Andean cosmovision is thoughtfully woven into each individual mestana, making them precious one of a kind pieces of sacred art. These hand-dyed and hand-woven cloths are used to cradle your stones in a protective wrapping as you create and connect with your mesa.

​

Khuya - A sacred power stone that is gifted to you by nature. Especially places that you consider sacred. They are typically smooth, dense and unbroken. Stones and khuya's have the ability to hold our stories as we heal ourselves. They can also hold the energy of where they originated on earth and the collective stories of our cosmos.

 

Despacho - Is an Andean Prayer bundle, that means "dispatch" in Spanish. Despachos are created as a ceremonial way of containing the intentions of the person or group that created it. There are numerous types of despachos. The creation of a despacho is a sacred process filled with intention, gratitude and prayers. After the creation of the despacho it can be buried in the ground, gifted to water or placed in a ceremonial fire. ​

​

Medicine Wheel - Traditionally embodies the Four Directions (South, West, North, East) along with Father Sky, Mother Earth and the Spirit Tree. It is a healing path that is grounded in the cycles of nature to help one connect with the rhythms of life.

Testimonials

​

"The Medicine Wheel Program is one of those rare opportunities in life that allows you to explore yourself mentally and emotionally, then identify potential difficulties and proceed to heal the wounds revolving around them. The program is thoughtfully designed to give its students every opportunity to successfully complete this healing journey. As with most things, I found that I got out of this program what I put into it, the depth of my exploration and thus healing was up to me. Laural has created a comforting environment that lends itself to stretching ones perspective. She carefully anticipates her student’s needs and confidently directs them upon the journey they create for themselves. Her expertise in communications, history, world religion, shamanism and healing arts makes her not only a noble guide but also a fascinating teacher. In my opinion, the Medicine Wheel Program could benefit any soul I know." - Dr. Patty Glover

After working with Laural, I know that I have the tools to continue healing myself and maintain a healthy life. I am so glad that I allowed the time to focus on my own health and healing.

This is a journey that is transforming and empowering." - Jean Wentz
