Apapacharnos: Being with Change

September 21, 6 pm PST Virtual

Arriving on the day before the Fall Equinox, Apapacharnos: Being with Change is an experiential gathering exploring our relationship with transition, communication, and the movement of life through us.

​Our gathering is inspired by the energy of 8 Iq’. In the Maya calendar, Iq’ is associated with wind, breath, communication, inspiration, and change. Combined with the number 8, a number associated with wholeness and balance, the day offers an invitation to listen for the fuller message emerging through our lives: the wisdom carried by what has come before us meeting the voice of what is becoming.

Awareness Center Yoga, 6:30 pm PST (join in person or via Zoom).

Apapacharnos: Being with Boundaries

October 11, 11 am PST (virtual)

What happens inside of us when we know we need a boundary, but setting it brings up guilt, fear, uncertainty, or the possibility of disappointing someone?

Apapacharnos: Being with Boundaries invites us to approach boundaries through tenderness, self-relationship, and embodied awareness.

In Spanish, apapachar means "to embrace with the soul." Apapacharnos is the practice of offering ourselves that same tenderness, meeting what hurts with compassion instead of judgment.

Cosmic Temple Series (Starts October 19)

For the Astro-Curious Souls

The planets are not distant forces acting upon you.

They are archetypal teachers and companions that invite you into deeper conversation with yourself and the world around you.

Through reflection, ritual, embodiment practices, and guided exploration, we learn to listen differently. We begin to recognize how the language of the cosmos is already speaking through our desires, emotions, relationships, challenges, and dreams.

This is not astrology as information, it is a relationship and practice honoring our personal cycles.

Self-Paced Courses

Mothering Ourselves & Igniting Joy

Mothering Ourselves

“Mothering Ourselves” is a guided sanctuary of healing and remembrance, where you’ll learn to offer yourself the loving care and sacred nurturing you may not have received in childhood. Rooted in the ancestral practice of apapacho—a Nahuatl word meaning “to embrace the soul”—this course gently leads you toward tending your emotional body and honoring your unmet needs.

Igniting Joy

Igniting Joy is rooted in indigenous ways of understanding how energy flows (Ollin) and revitalizing a vital force located in the heart (Teyollila).

The hummingbird is our master guide through the course. It reminds us to be joyful and fearless in our quest for the nectar for our own dreams. The nectar is a life source for the hummingbird. The metaphor of the nectar is for us to seek the sweetness of life fearlessly and voraciously like the hummingbird does. The invitation for you during this course is to open up to joy and experience more ease and flow in your life. There will be no need to delay gratification. Or experience joy as a reward.
