SUMMARY:Advanced Shamanic Training & Vision Quest with Dr Broomfield & Dr Sanson
DESCRIPTION:Advanced Shamanic Training & Vision Quest with Dr. John Broomfield & Dr. Dawne Sanson\nThis is a rare opportunity for intensive shamanic practice with two experienced teachers.  Exploration of shamanic cultures from around the world will lay the groundwork for our own practice of advanced techniques. The wilderness locale of Wangapeka Centre in the foothills of New Zealand’s Southern Alps enhances the power of the practice and provides the perfect setting for the two-day solo fasting vision quest which is heart of the workshop.\n“Stand still. The trees ahead and the bushes beside you\nAre not lost.\nThe forest breathes. Listen. It answers, I have made this place around you.\nThe forest knows where you are.\nYou must let it find you.”\nDavid Wagoner “Lost”\n \nGroup numbers will be small so there will be time for in-depth work on individual issues.\n“This workshop and vision quest was one of the more down-to-earth spiritually   transformative experiences I’ve ever had.” – 2016 group member\nWorkshop Information\n\nCost for the workshop, four days’ accommodation and vegetarian meals will be NZ$760 (Aust$705; US$485; Can$640; £380; Euro 435).

His distinguished academic career includes fellowships at MIT, the Indian Institute of Advanced Studies and the ANU; and service as Professor of Asian & Comparative History at the University of Michigan, and as President of the California Institute of Integral Studies, San Francisco.\nHe brings a wealth of experience in cultures around the world, including study with Native American, Tibetan Buddhist, Hindu, Balinese, Māori and Aboriginal Australian teachers. His most recent book is: “Other Ways of Knowing: Recharting Our Future With Ageless Wisdom”\nHe has travelled extensively in Asia, Europe, North America and the Pacific and spent a year living in an Indian Himalayan village. After 10 years in San Francisco, he moved to the Marlborough Sounds in New Zealand, where he established a private nature reserve on 50 acres of remote coastal forest, Te Wairua, “place of spirit.”\nAbout Dr. Dawne Sanson\nDawne Sanson has practised as a naturopath, incorporating medical herbalism and craniosacral therapy in her healing work for over 35 years. This led to an awareness of, and curiosity about subtle energies, resulting in an experiential exploration of shamanism and contemporary shamanic healing. Dawne completed her doctorate Taking the Spirits Seriously in 2012, a study based in Aotearoa. During her research she met contemporary shamans (neo-shamans) and Māori healers, attended shamanic workshops and vision quests. She still regards herself as a curious explorer of shamanism, and particularly appreciates opportunities to deepen this exploration with others within a ritually-created sacred space.\nIt would be our pleasure to have you join us on this retreat.\n
