Collective Wisdom Circles
Collective Wisdom Circles are an opportunity to arrive as you are, be present with what is, and use whatever circumstance you are moving through and create from it. Align your inner knowing with the wisdom of nature as we come together for collective healing.
When we step outside and immerse ourselves in nature there is an effortless conversation that happens. A conversation without words, an exchange of energy, a reminder of the nature that we are.
Our nature comes alive with nature
Through inquiry, guided meditation and conversation with the Elemental Elders* you are invited to get quiet and listen for the sound beneath the noise as you connect with nature from within.
What to expect: Virtual 1 hr session, a group of curious humans, meditation with the Elementals, journaling, inquiry, and conversation.
What to bring: A journal, a glass of water and a soft heart
*Elemental Elders - Hirini Reedy, a Māori spiritual warrior philosopher of ancient Māori Pacific knowledge refers to the ancient wisdom of the mountains, rivers, forests, wind, stars and other nature ancestors as the “Teachings of the Elemental Elders”
Testimonials
“I was deeply touched and a little surprised with where these meditations led me. They provided a portal for me to explore my inner wisdom from the interconnection of myself with these elements and what they have to teach and to what is inside me to hear. They supported an awakening to some hidden truths, and through the sharing of the collective group's experience and wisdom I was honoured and touched by the pure and genuine expression of inherent beauty that emerged each time.” - Lori
“Led by Dani, I was also able to learn from the richness and wisdom of the group and Dani's wisdom and gentle spirit. Dani has a unique way of not only sharing the wisdom but allowing the participants to connect with not only the Elementals but our own hearts. This came to me at a time when I felt so disconnected, and it was great to be led back to the wisdom of the earth and my own inner knowledge. I walk in the world now with more peace in my heart. I look forward to taking a deeper dive in future sessions and to continue to hear and appreciate the wisdom of what mother earth and the stars have to share." - Michelle
"Working with the Elementals found me at the perfect time. This is a period in our lives where we tend to lose ourselves and lose the steadiness we could once grasp. Often, we don’t know where to begin or how to find our way back to our truest self, and that feels overwhelming, frightening, and sometimes lonely. But what this special experience allowed me to see was that there was nothing to fix or figure out, instead there was a beautiful spaciousness and inner-knowing that was just waiting to be met. Connecting with each of the elementals forged this sense of spaciousness and limitless freedom towards connecting back with myself, my thoughts, and my body, and in a way that I never could’ve imagined could feel so easeful, effortless, and nourishing. It was an experience that stays with me every day since, and one that I wish for more to be able to experience." - Mimi

Peace
Good vibrations of fluffy, buzzing bumblebees Kindness, Hope, Patience, Perseverance
Everything that needs to go - to wash away to go away to liberate me and guide me and reveal me and hold me and be me and fall away.
The bloom of the flowers act like a canopy for the stem. An umbrella of love and light, radiance and beauty holding and creating a container for what is unfolding
Ripples of water around stones
inhabiting me, tall and swaying with the movement of the flowers in the breeze
Allow my heart to expand forever knowing, nourish, hold softly with strength
Enjoy the small joys, the "unjoys" the things that make up life. We are not here to be in a perfect state!!
Meet yourself with the graciousness of imperfection and the bravery to try again and again
soften and clear your soil for the potential to bloom

Dignifying the space between and seizing the gems Hard truth brings light from inside out Grounded and also expansive with energetic vitality, freedom and possibility
To truly experience lightness, we need to experience the heaviness
To be know is to be who you are. When you blanket yourself in a love that is not asking for anything in return, all parts of you have the courage to be known
Look for the light in the darkness. Let the light navigate and illuminate your path
I am so loved and supported. Everyone’s got me and I’ve got them too. We’ve got each other. Softening, nourished, a blanket, a hug. I got you .... You will be okay.
Whenever you go, I’ll follow
Whenever you ache, I’ll hold you
Wherever you go, I’ll follow

take time to watch the stars and hear or see the message.
Just be.
Listen and allow the processes of the body to do what is their natural function and learn.
Give me pebbles in moonlight.
My entire body was dark, until it wasn’t anymore.
I live fully.
Feel the presence always present.
This is the place where your night sky exist - at the bottom of the breath. No more air in, no more air out. That’s where stillness can embrace you and warm you up with the glow of the stars above.
The galaxy is so vast. I only know this moment.
Home is a frequency. Held by the darkness, sit there in that space because it is there that you will be reunited with the light. From here, wisdom is revealed

Balance is in the beauty of the glow. The glow is in the meeting of the meeting of the darkness and the light.
Its time to transition from winter to spring
Sun -light heat fragile fear danger growth energy mystery life movement near far
You can grieve and be happy, joyful and angry. It's okay to be both and have both within simultaneously.
Balance is the opening of the heart and the remembrance of love. You heart can meet it all. When you allow, you will effortlessly arrive and ground into the peaceful hum of the changing sky
humanness is being in a state of imbalance yet knowing it will change and accepting this
There is no this and that, in nature it all works out as it should and it is in balance.
In that place of balance is a feeling of being home

Use this oceanic feeling to walk hand and hand with reality
We are the soft strong repeating waves...we are the ocean all as one mysterious strength..love
Strength is in the calm. Calmness lies in the depths of the ocean.
It’s becoming so clear what my heart is saying, whispering to me
Strength is the knowing and deep trusting in yourself that everything will be okay. And slowing down is what builds strength.
Its not just the big crash of the waves its the sound of water moving against and through your body
Keep the knowing of where you are going close. For when the waters change you will still be guided by the starlight in your soul. Let the waters move you and be in allowance of the waves. They too belong. You know your heart’s song
Strength is the container to hold the big crash of water and the lazy river stream.
Like with the squid the ocean washes my pain
When confronted with the quiet might of the ocean there is a self forgetfulness; one where fear is replaced with a sense of well being and security

Quiet, Wild Woman
The quiet stone is mine to carry and hold. In the cavern of my heart.
River, Solitude, inner peace
A steady path through the storm. Trust the knowing you hear in the quiet. Let it walk you along the path hand in hand. A friend
There’s no efforting. It’s presence and being
The stone is always quietly wise and is available to tap into when needed.
Is there ever really "quiet"
It's impossible for me to achieve absolute quiet or noise. Therefore I try to use the quiet to subdue the noise and to use the noise to energize the quiet.
