Please call or email Melynda to discuss and apply to this program. Positions are limited as this is an intense one-on-one learning modality. You will have much hands-on experience and teach alongside current instructors.



Chakra Mapping

Chakras, sometimes referred to as our body’s energy centers, are related to our immune system, endocrine system and central nervous system. Chakras receive, transmit, store information and act as equalizers. Based on the seven main physical chakras Melynda explains this interconnectedness and introduces chakra "mapping". In this class you will:

  • learn the four basic chakra mapping protocols
  • learn your own healthy and unhealthy chakra mapping patterns
  • be shown patterns of illness based on chakra mapping protocols
  • gain insight into early detection of imbalances that can lead to illness.

 


Aromatherapy I

Modern scientific research has proven that essential oils are potent, with remarkable medicinal properties. When we are looking for alternatives to toxic products in our homes and in our lives, essential oils are a convenient, practical, and pleasant solution. In this workshop you will:

• Learn the historical use of essential oils

Creating Sacred Space

In this class you will be introduced to the healer’s way of creating sacred space in which to treat your client. In a focused, directed and experiential way you will learn “clearing techniques” for yourself and your treatment room with sacred sage, other herbs and aromatherapy. Melynda will share Native American ways of calling in the Four Directions to assist in this clearing. Your practice will flourish as others sense a sacred and safe space to come to you for healing.

 


Circle dates TBA

Individual Studies available

Circlekeepers, A Lunar Cycle Journey, was created to teach the basic symbology of the Medicine Wheel in a focused, directed and experiential way. By setting an intention, creating a sacred space, doing personal daily rituals and meditations, and meeting weekly through one lunar cycle, you will take a guided journey around the wheel, experiencing the attributes of a Cardinal Direction (East, South, West and North) each week. This focused process integrates left and right brain activity and imprints the subconscious with the concepts of initiation, transition, transformation and synthesis as a guide for making positive, life-affirming change.

You will sit circle with Melynda for four weekly sessions. A fifth meeting will culminate our work together in a full moon Medicine Wheel ceremony signifying completion of the Lunar Cycle. Your journey to the Four Directions will allow your transition and healing to take place. By "telling your story", participating in "clearing" or letting go of what is no longer useful to you, you arrive at the place to call back that part of you that is your soul essence. This journey is sometimes called "soul searching" or "soul retrieval". Chanting, drumming, shamanic journeying, “Talk Story,” energetic healing and sacred counsel are some of the processes used on this healing journey.
