Conscious Camp Timetable May 2017

The mind body connection is one of the most undervalued parts of our development. In this 40 minute dance I will take you on a playful journey to wake your body without you even realising it.

A time to express anything you need to, find out what's on, and say good morning to the rest of the community.

A human being can survive 3 weeks without food, 3 days without water, but only 3 minutes without breath. Truly, BREATH IS LIFE. But breath serves us in a much deeper way than mere survival. Breath is the conscious bridge between our mind and body, and crossing this bridge with intention can lead us to deep understanding and profound change. Drawing from the ancient Indian science of Pranayama, AC Self Mastery teaches techniques to explore a variety of breathing methods–from calm and quiet, to vigorous and powerful–to infuse the body and mind with an overall sense of vitality, well-being, and peace. To gain a deep experience of, and insight into, the elegant and simple power of the breath–truly, our most potent tool for positive transformation.

In this workshop you will discover Rose magik, experience a journey to commune with your own heart and be guided in some dyadic practices which will all culminate in an honouring of the heart and a blissful bath in the purest energy of unconditional love. This workshop awakens and encourages a deeper sense of love within yourself and your community. It is healing, inspiring, beautiful and powerful just like you.

The intention of this workshop is to joyfully enhance and strengthen our connection to the Wonders of Mother Nature, to the infinite Essence of ourselves and to the Consciousness of the Universe. I will share, from the depths of my Soul, Songs, Spoken word and Journeys which will take us on an empowering, healing journey towards this expanded state of consciousness. Each Song, Poem or Short Story will be a beautiful sensory experience, combining the varied use of Voice, Acoustic guitar, Shamanic Drum, Steel Tongue Drum, Chimes, rattles and Native American Flute. The overall energy engages the imagination, inspires deep relaxation and visualisation and lifts the spirit. Food for the Soul, from my heart to yours! The climax of the workshop will be the Shamanic Fire Ceremony. The Fire Ceremony is a powerful tool for connecting with our inner being and creating transformation, manifestation and healing within our lives. The ancient art of Fire Ceremony connects us harmoniously with the Divine Beauty of Mother Earth and the Powers of the Universe via the Elemental, Energetic Force of the Fire. Through the Fire, we 'Let Go' and we 'Manifest'. We bridge the gap between the physical world and the ethereal world, encouraging the alignment of Mind, Body and Spirit, thus bringing into reality our hopes, dreams, aspirations and intentions. The Ceremony which I lead is rooted in Peruvian Shamanism, and is inspired by ancient and beautiful traditions, however, I have developed the ceremony into my own unique expression. It is therefore accessible to ALL who wish to experience it, embracing all beliefs, all spiritual outlooks and all age groups. Through my Performances and Workshops, It is my loving intention to encourage us to remember our passions and our dreams and rediscover the beauty and the power which lies within each and every one of us, for we are all sparks from the same flame!

The body never works against us, it is always doing the best it can for us in any situation. Given the right environment and the right raw materials, the body is its own incredible pharmacy and can create all it needs to flourish allowing activation and reactivation of what the body already knows so you can feel fantastic, consistently. We will use this hour workshop to explore the keys to support the body in being the healthiest it can be so you can truly thrive and shine. You will have the opportunity to ask questions during the interactive part of the workshop.

We are all vibrational beings and sound is vibration. If we can find our own unique sacred sound then we can heal ourselves using our own voice. Join in singing chants and mantras from around the world, some gentle and some stirring but all enjoyablle and joyful.

Mugwort is a beautiful herb from this land: also known as Cronewort she helps us to connect with our deep Yin nature for healing and guidance. We will take a shamanic journey to the Heart of Pachamama for you to receive insights and healing in your souls path and your role in community. We’ll explore sharing and energy exercises to help you bring those insights into full embodiment then the session will conclude with some gentle sound and movement practice to help you ground and integrate. This ceremony is for you if you: – are ready to encounter deep healing – love the wisdom of the plant realm – are ready to journey for guidance – appreciate the strength and fluidity of sitting in circle – sorry – not for you if you’re pregnant This ceremony is held by Debra Delglyn a full-time practitioner based in Manchester. With a background in business and teaching, she integrates a practical western worldview with an energy-based shamanic understanding fuelled by extensive travels and training over the last 13 years.

You do not have to be a writer to benefit from the practice of Soul Scripting. We all have an inner voice. By taking time to tap into and acknowledge that voice we can begin to make it work for us, instead of the other way around! When we do it can become easier to process emotions, to deal with change and, in short, to keep ourselves happy. Facilitator Gillian Torres is a professional writer who can teach anyone to do just that. Gillian developed the Soul Scripting process as a means of teaching anyone and everyone an uncomplicated, attainable method for taking creative control of life. During this workshop you will learn and practice a series of writing exercises that are suitable for everyone – from professional writers to those who have written nothing more than a shopping list in years. Please bring a notebook and pen to the session. You will not be asked to share anything you write. Nice things people have said about Soul Scripting: 'This workshop was brilliant. Value for money without a doubt. Gill has an epic way of holding a group, l loved it. I would recommend Soul Scripting to any one who is interested in getting connected to a true sense of self… Who would think a pen and a pad could help unlock so many possibilities?' – Joe Jackson, NHS ambulance technician 'Gill you are a revelation! The workshop last night can seriously can sit alongside some of the best I've been to or ran around the world… Its intention was quality and your energy congruent with the intent in a lovely quiet, understated way that allowed the attendees to be. It certainly helped me flow. Thanks.' – Steve Gibson, head of design www.diddid.co.uk / facebook.com/soulscripting

In this transformational yoga session will use yoga as alchemy. The practice of yoga offers many gifts: it promotes excellent health and vitality; it revitalises and strengthens the whole physical organism removing toxicity, physical impurities, tension and obstructions to the flow of energy in the body. It increases our stamina and flexibility and calms and focuses our mind. One of its greatest gifts however is more subtle and profound, it assists us in understanding ourselves more clearly and forming a deeper connection with life and all it offers! When we practice yoga with intention and intelligence we begin to attend to details in our bodies and lives that we previously overlooked or misunderstood. What may at first appear to be stillness in a yoga pose reveals itself to be always shifting, adjusting, always transforming and flowing into something else. The same is true for each of us. While our lives and personalities may seem stable and unchanging, we are actually always changing. Yoga teaches us to welcome change, to be able to direct change intentionally and be curious about where our practice is leading us so that we can enjoy its transformative process. The beauty of yoga is that it is 100% inclusive. It is for everyone regardless of age or levels of fitness. The only requirement in yoga is to simply show up with a willingness and curiosity to explore and uncover its many gifts. All levels are welcome even if you’ve never done yoga before. Kirsty teaches in a way that allows everyone to work at a level and pace that suits you as an individual. Modifications and progressions are offered so you can choose the right challenges for you. Yoga will meet you wherever you are. Bio Kirsty is a dedicated yoga practitioner & teacher & a certified ecstatic dance teacher. She holds advanced diplomas in Naturopathy and Nutritional healing and is a certified trainer of NLP. She also holds qualifications in other areas of personal development. Wellness, nutrition and lifestyle are huge passions of hers and she hopes her enthusiasm for these areas inspires others to lead more inspired, healthy, prosperous and enjoyable lives. She aims to make workshops fun, accessible & enriching for all of her students offering skills that can be applied to daily life.

In many styles of salsa dancing, as a dancer shifts their weight by stepping, the upper body remains level and nearly unaffected by the weight changes. Weight shifts cause the hips to move. Arm and shoulder movements are also incorporated.

Their will be a share circle in a safely held space, guided meditations using sound healing, shamanic drum journeying and interaction as a group to reach a feeling of integration with the cosmic mother and father, both within and without. This offering is a culmination of Jessica and Toms individual work bringing together what they have learnt to create a unique living workshop that will be different each time it is held. Exploring the aspects and archetypes of the divine masculine and divine feminine to help us access both qualities and balance these within ourselves, helping to create a more harmonious flow in our lives.

Why 432 hz? Since 1953 all of our music worldwide has been tuned to the standard concert pitch of A=440 Hz as agreed and promoted by the International Standards Organization (ISO) . Before this point, through ancient times most instruments… native flutes, sitars, didgeridoos were all tuned to 432 hz. Even with just 8hz difference it is said that the 440hz tuning may create disharmony in our systems, when we look at the vibratory nature of the universe and cymatics, it's a clear possibility that this pitch is not harmonious with the natural resonance of nature and could cause less than desirable effects on our behaviour and consciousness. The benefits of re tuning ourselves to the universal harmonics of nature are profound…working with the 432 Hz is said to be mathematically consistent with the patterns of the universe. It is said that 432 Hz vibrates with the universe’s golden mean PHI and unifies the properties of light, time, space, matter, gravity and magnetism with biology, the DNA code, and consciousness. There is much research out there and i would invite you if you feel called to research deeper into this subject. I will also be available to discuss this in more detail before and after the session. When our atoms and DNA start to resonate in harmony with the spiralling pattern of nature, our sense of connection and well being is said to be magnified. This interesting number, 432, also come up again in ratios of the Sun, Earth, and Moon, as well as the procession of the equinoxes, the Great Pyramid of Egypt, Stonehenge, and the Sri Yantra, alongside many other sacred sites. In this harmonic resonance session we will be working with 7 Quartz Crystal Singing bowls all tuned to this 432hz Scale, we work with sacred geometry and Pythagorean intervals to create peace and harmony in our systems. Why Quartz Crystal Singing Bowls? Working with Quartz crystal acts as an oscillator, magnifying and transmitting pure tones. This is why pure quartz crystal is used in all the most advanced telecommunications systems. Like a powerful radio transmitter, the crystal bowls transmit energy into the atmosphere, enhanced with clarity and intention. A sacred space is created and we journey deeply with these pure crystalline tones Each crystal bowl is made of 99.9999 % Quartz Crystal heated to 4000 degrees and then are molded…it is only afterwards that they are tested for there frequency and note. These pure tones vibrate our bodies on all levels beautifully because as beings we have a natural affinity to quartz. The human body is composed of many crystalline substances – the bones, blood and DNA are crystalline in structure, as well as the liquid crystal-colloidal structure of the brain. Even on a molecular level, our cells contain silica, which balances our electromagnetic energies, this connection is powerful and is felt. In this session we will be creating harmony, balance, stability and coherence in our systems. Through the breathe and consistency of the 432hz pure tones we allow a re-balancing to take place on all levels. From this space we can fully align with our true unique frequency and resonance and reach deep states of peace within As always experience is everything…come feel for yourself!

We move though the Wheel of Consent (BettyMartin.org). and discover what holds us back in knowing and communicating our boundaries.

Through my practice of various forms of yoga i have developed my own practice combining the different forms to choose asanas that open the bodies energy centres and waken up the body with a strong focus on the breath and correct movement into and out of asanas .

Our body holds much wisdom – including root causes of things we wish to change, insights that could benefit us and more… This journey is one deep into our subconscious and into our body where we can learn so much from experience here – from the awen – the inner wisdom and universal wisdom that we all can access deep within ourselves

For thousands of years all knowledge and intuitive wisdom has been passed through oral tradition using storytelling. In this workshop we intend to honour and reignite this time held tradition which has suffered erosion due to modern culture and mainstream media. By far the most magical of these stories have been the fairytale, fairytale takes an issue that we may have made cognitively difficult and uses the power of metaphor to simplify; in many cases bringing healing and closure. In this meditative workshop all you have to do is lay back and let go while you are submerged in storytelling. Bring mats, blankets, crystals if you wish and enjoy the childhood magic of being recited magical tales filled with goblins, fairies, trolls, wood sprites and wonderment by Liverpool fairytale author Ged Thompson. Below he will tell you about his close friend Norman. Signed copies of his collection ‘Middle Earth Magic’ will be available for sale on the day. https://www.facebook.com/1156566297717554/videos/vb.1156566297717554/1366335213407327/?type=2&theater
