SUMMARY:Moon Lodge with Grandmother Renee & Sarah Connors
DESCRIPTION:Monthly virtual Moon Lodge is shifting gears a little bit this fiscal. \nIt will still be a safe place for women to come together to share their life experiences and embrace the teachings offered by Grandmother Renee and the knowledge shared by Sarah Connors\, Naturopath & Indigenous Doula. And it will continue to occur the Third Tuesday of every month\, 1-3pm. \nNext year\, we will be aligning our Moon Teachings with some life cycle wheel teachings. What this means is\, we will focus on different age groups each month (some for 2 months because there has been a lot of requests for support in some topics discussed previously in those age groups). This will provide an opportunity for all ages to join us and learn more about some ways they can incorporate these tools and teachings to live the good life in all stages along our journey. \nGrandmother Renee calls this “Life Stages Through the Moon Cycles”. \nOngoing until Dec 2025\nWe meet monthly over Microsoft Teams\, email Lianne to receive the link.\nPlease fill in the registration link below:\nMoon Lodge Registration 2025

As an indigenous healer\, Arrole helps individuals to quickly resolve\, crippling physical ailments\, patterns of depression\, grief and trauma. \nClients seeking healing are asked to come forward\, exchange tobacco for the healing they will be receiving and be prepared to provide permission for the healing work. Once permission is granted\, you will be guided inward by closing your eyes\, deep breathing\, then connecting to the heart. \nOnce the connection is made\, clients are guided through their physical and spiritual systems to address\, trauma\, drama\, fear\, pain\, suffering and spiritual fragmentation. The work is extensive and so much can be healed in an hour.  The goal is always to return the individual to health\, wellness and balance for the highest possible outcome.
