Please read these instructions carefully.
You may arrive around 5 PM and you will be on your way the next morning by 9:30 AM. You will need camping/sleepout supplies: sleeping bag, sleeping pad, pillow, water bottle. If the event is outdoors, you will need your own tent. There are porta-potties on site.
The night involves the facilitators singing, drumming, and rattling. We also use sacred tobacco and other items in the ceremony. Each person is also offered an individual healing during the event (this is something that comes from our lineage, and is, apparently, not common in many ceremonies.) We will send you more details on all of the above after you register. The event is limited to about 12 attendees.
How to register:
Reserve your spot with a payment below. Your payment is non-refundable if you withdraw, unless I can fill your spot. Some payments can be rescheduled to later circles within three months.
If this is your first all-night event with us, we will send you an information packet that you must fill out and return. You won't be admitted until we review your forms, so I urge you not to delay. If you are not admitted after I review your forms, you'll receive a full refund.
Please maintain confidentiality! Do not share my name or email in connection with this work. I am happy and grateful to have to have you refer poeple to the work, just please ask me first.
You should NOT register for this event if:
- Your regular blood pressure is untreated and over 140/90. The medicine can the blood pressure.
- You're pregnant.
- You have, or any blood relative, has any history of psychotic episodes, seizures, schizophrenia or bi-polar conditions. This is not something to mess with. Be truthful.
- If you have a history of cardiac arrest, or any current cardiac concerns.
- You are taking an MAOI antidepressant (Nardil (phenelzine), Parnate (tranylcypromine), Marplan (isocarboxazid), Eldepryl (l-deprenyl), and Aurorex or Manerix (moclobemide).
- If you are are taking an SSRI antidepressant, the scant studies show that it's not that there is a particular danger, it's that you may have a diminished experience, including feeling no effect. If you are on an SSRI, please feel free to email me or schedule a phone chat with me. Common SSRIs include Prozac (fluoxetine), Celexa (citalopram), Zoloft (sertraline), Paxil (paroxetine), Lexapro.
- You are, or have been in the last six months, in a
severe mental crisis, or under unusual, severe stress ("severe" meaning just got out of the psych hospital, or have been having severe suicidal ideation - not be confused with a more generalized depressed or anxious state).
