About this Event
Join Joe for a 4-week in-person journey through the British Medicine Wheel - an adaptation of a powerful, earth-based framework for transformation, emotional healing, and spiritual renewal.
Guided by Joe Aston, this immersive 4-part series blends shamanic medicine wheel ceremony, somatic awareness, guided meditation journeying, and group sharing to help you reconnect with the natural world, your spirit guides, your inner landscape, and your deeper sense of purpose.
Each session explores one of the four directions, elements, and animal guides of the British Isles - the Adder, Fox, Owl, and Robin - weaving together body, emotion, mind, and spirit in a cycle of release, insight, and renewal.
This is a sacred yet accessible space for personal growth, emotional integration, and reconnection with the living land.

What You’ll Experience:
• Guided shamanic journeys to meet your animal allies and receive their teachings
• Somatic and breath-based practices to connect body and emotion
• Group sharing and ceremony to release, renew, and integrate
• Creative and journaling exercises to embody each week’s medicine
• Building a personal altar and collecting Khuya stones as a physical representation of your journey
