In a world where many feel isolated, divided, and disempowered, this gathering offers profound insights into peaceful conflict resolution, rekindling hope, and reconnecting with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue and learn how to nurture a more balanced and empowered life. Wolf and Lisa Wahpepah, Native American elders who have dedicated their lives to sharing Native American wisdom and ceremonies, are collaborating with Southern Arizona Friends of Jung to facilitate an engaging discussion on what it means to be resilient, build community, cultivate a harmonious relationship with Mother Earth, and resolve conflicts peacefully in a world where many feel increasingly isolated, divided, hopeless, depressed, anxious, and disempowered. For decades, their non-profit organization, Descendants of the Earth, has shared their teachings and purification ceremonies at their inter-tribal spirit camp, Awibi Nibi (Calm Water) at Pine Mountain, California. For the past 35 years, they have offered traditional Native American sweat lodge, sacred pipe ceremonies, sun dance, vision quest, house blessings, wedding ceremonies, baby blessings, as well as men and women’s ceremonies to people from all backgrounds, nationalities, and creeds. It is their belief that Native American traditions have much to wisdom to address current, collective problems especially in terms of environmental restoration, as well as spiritual, emotional, and physical purification through cultivating a relationship with the natural world and Creator. Wolf and Lisa have also provided cultural sensitivity training to Ventura County Sheriff’s Department, healing ceremonies to at-risk youth at California Youth Authority in Camarillo and California Department of Education, have cleared over 300 tons of illegal trash and waste from the Los Padres National Forest, and continue to perform community outreach through teaching Native American practices, storytelling, history, songs, crafts, and plant identification. for more information visit SAFOJ.ORG Members $25 Non Members $30 Student $20 CEUs $20
