Through storytelling, ritual, psychodrama, art and personal and group exercises, you will learn techniques to heal your Tree and gain tools to reach your goals and manifest your dreams.

What is the Tree of Life?

The Tree of Life lives within each person, with its roots, trunk and branches corresponding to body, soul and spirit. This training provides the tools you need to develop your Tree of Life to its full potential and live with physical, emotional and spiritual vitality – healing your roots, strengthening your trunk and opening your branches to a spiritual perspective of life.

The Aim of the Training

According to the Tree of Life Model, you have seven centers of consciousness (seven chakras) through which you run various currents of physical, psychological and spiritual energy.

When these energies are balanced and flowing, your Tree of Life is healthy and you feel physically vital, emotionally stable and spiritually open.

Your roots are grounded, your trunk is strong and your branches bring forth abundant fruit. For most of us, these seven centers are not in perfect harmony. Our energy centers become blocked and our Tree of Life gets out of alignment.

The aim of the Tree of Life Training is to:

• Identify thoughts, feelings and fears that hold you back from completing Initiation at each stage
• Clear any energy blocks, heal and re-balance your Tree of Life
• Receive abundant support to manifest your dreams and goals

You will learn learn meditations to reduce stress and increase self awareness, creative techniques for personal and spiritual transformation and tools to repair, balance and align body, soul and spirit.

Tree of Life Training Modules and Initiations

Tree of Life Module 1

Initiation 1: Get Grounded

The initiation journey begins by rooting our Tree of Life, connecting with the earth and the body as the sacred ground of being. You will learn ancient spiritual exercises such as the Tree of Life Chakra Activation Method to help you feel grounded, rooted and contained. When initiation is successful, you will feel profoundly connected to your body and nature and will bring a dynamic presence to any situation. Others will experience you as solid, dependable and reliable, and you will be able to manifest your projects and ideas.

Initiation 2: Flow and Play

In Initiation 2, you will root your Tree of Life into instinctive soil. Through the ancient Greek myth of Persephone, you will be led on a journey to retrieve your instinctive power. When you complete the second initiation, you will trust your instincts, know your own rhythms and be able to flow with the ever-changing cycles and seasons of life. You will be able to comfort and nurture yourself so you feel deeply rested and replenished. You will be imaginative and playful and available for intimacy.

Tree of Life Module 2

Initiation 3: Connect with your Community

Initiation 3 inspires you to connect in a healthy way to family and community, so that you experience a deep sense of belonging and support for your life’s journey. Through sharing your family genogram, you will learn about your family blessings and curses and come to terms with your ancestral inheritance and heal the roots of your Tree. When initiation is successful, you no longer blame family or tribe for your problems in life and have transformed your negative family patterns into something positive and life-giving.

Initiation 4: Claim your Power

In Initiation 4 you begin a new phase of growing your Tree of Life by pushing up from the underground root system and establishing a trunk. Through the story of John the Baptist,  you will be guided to find your own identity away from family and tribe. When the fourth initiation is complete, you can emotionally separate from group expectations and roles, can manage conflict and confrontation, and withstand disapproval from others. You can sustain solitude, take risks and explore new territory.

Initiation 5: Live your Heart’s Truth

In the fifth initiation, you solidify the trunk of your Tree of Life, finding the true center of your personal power and living out your personal truth. During this initiation, you develop and manifest the qualities of the soul, which are: integrity, justice, love and compassion. The ancient Greek myth of Theseus, King Minos and the Minotaur will guide you to complete initiation so that you feel courageous, confident, responsible, potent, passionate and focused.

Tree of Life Module 4

Initiation 6: Free your Creative Spirit

In the sixth initiation, we face the challenges and joys of opening to Spirit so that we may glimpse our life purpose and transform any obstacles blocking us from living our destiny. Through the myth of Dionysus, we will learn how to surrender to the transformation process, which brings not only death and loss, but also ecstasy and new life. When this initiation is successful, we can trust our innate spiritual knowing and feel inspired to practice our creativity.

Initiation 7: Express your Purpose, Share your Gifts

The seventh initiation celebrates the culmination of the journey, when our personal Tree of Life comes into alignment and we experience healing and inner peace. Through the Native American story of the Sacred Snake, we will discover the mysterious sacred spring and connect with our longing for the Divine.

When the seventh initiation is successful, our Tree of Life will bloom and bear fruit and we will share our bountiful gifts and talents with the world. We will feel empowered to fulfill our life task and will be able to bless and initiate fellow seekers, becoming a healing sanctuary for others along the path.
