This course is suited both for those entirely new to ancestral or elemental work, and for advanced practitioners alike. Through Taya’s Mâ’s warm and clear guidance, you’ll be invited into practices for easeful, palpable connection with elemental ancestral realms. Learn simple techniques for slipping beyond linear time & into the ancestral now. Cultivate greater perception and trust in your direct knowing. Experience the power of rooting in positive resource in embodied, energetic and ancestral realms. Attune to states of flow and experiences of synchronicity - often understood to be a primary language of ancestors and guides.

Each module includes content learning, experiential practice and accessible ritual guided by Taya Mâ. Participants are invited to bring an elemental object ~ a vessel of water, a stone or plant, a candle to each session.
