Friday Night - Open to the Public: Intro to Soul Seeds - Dance Drum Journey

__________

We are thrilled to announce that Ya'Acov has graciously accepted our invitation to stop in Toronto on his way home from the Amazon for his event with the Pachamama Alliance where he will be working alongside his brothers and sisters of the Achuar Tribe.

We warmly welcome you to join this historic gathering. We can already feel this will be a potent time for us all. Don't miss this experience! Ya'Acov is acknowledged as a practicing shaman by the people who work with him world-wide and by many indigenous elder shamans and communities from the Arctic to the Amazon.

Our sense of self is a blend of unique essence with biographical, cultural and transgenerational history. On our journey towards integrating the dance into our day-to-day life, we must continually update the inner picture of who we are now. If we do not, we will continue to enrol each other into the undigested and unconscious stories of the past in a vain attempt to complete those unfinished gestalts. This causes all of us, and the life that we share this planet with, untold suffering.

Movement Medicine teaches the alchemical keys to develop the personal power needed to change the story you are telling and update your sense of Self to one of more balanced, dignified, and honest relationship with Self. This naturally ripples out into all your relationships.

In Soul Seeds, I will be offering you the space to update your relationship with the past, teaching the S.E.E.R Process™ (Systemic Essential Energy Retrieval), a fantastically useful recapitulation tool that he developed that will help you to change your relationship with the past and update the meaning you give to it.

I have come to notice that the things that were most difficult for me to acknowledge, like the wounds of the holocaust or the fear of sharing my total devotion to the mystery of life, have turned out to be the exact lead weight material inside of which I found the golden seeds of soul. I am super blessed in my life and my intention is go on using every ounce of privilege I have to make a positive contribution through my life.-- Ya'acov Darling Khan

Ya’Acov Darling Khan, the author of the best-selling Jaguar in the Body, Butterfly in the Heart – the Real-Life Initiation of an Everyday Shaman (Hay House 2017), and the 'Shaman – Invoking Power, Purpose and Presence in the Core of Who YOU Are' (Hay House 2020), is known for his blend of strength, humility and humour.

He is acknowledged as a practicing shaman by the people who work with him world-wide and by many indigenous elder shamans and communities from the Arctic to the Amazon.

Travelling the world to work with groups delivering Movement Medicine, Ya’Acov has spoken to audiences across the globe at some on the most pre-eminent platforms driving the transformation of world culture and sustainability.

Ya’Acov’s message? Shamanism, and a shift from society’s focus on acquisition to reciprocity, is a powerful key to restoring our universal connection and solving our interpersonal and world issues in the process.

Ya’Acov has devoted three decades of study and practise with spiritual teachers and Elder Shamans from the Sami (European tradition), and Achuar and Sápara peoples of the Amazon.

“Along the way I had to carve out a sense of normality and accept that this being’s soul, speaks the language of dance, ritual and prayer. I have come to recognise the fact that reawakening a sense of the magic, potential and splendour of creation in as many people as possible, is the blessing I am lucky enough to call my job!” .

His work is inspiring, contemporary and practical, and Ya’Acov’s audience includes people from all walks of life. In a time in which western society has become disconnected from ancestral and natural wisdom, much of his work is about education and removing the unhelpful mystique of the term ‘Shaman,’ meaning traditional healer.

His 32-year marriage and partnership with ‘Movement Medicine Woman’ and wife, Susannah, with whom he is Co-Director of The School of Movement medicine and Co-Author of Hay House published Movement Medicine, forms the loving foundation and union for a life dedicated to the transformation of our world.

“As a species, we are in a crisis. Our work? To reach as many people as possible and support them to know who they really are, find their purpose and live meaningful lives.”
