Adventures for the Spirit in Medicine Wheel Wisdom Ways
These camps hold and share the 'inner heart wisdom teachings' of the Native American Medicine Wheel. A rich and sophisticated spiritual system that honours and respects the Earth as a Mother and the Sky as a Father - and the whole of creation as kin, as a relative you are to us.

Fri 23rd - Sun 25th
3-day camp
A special bear spirit shamanic
empowerment camp; for all those who care for and work with others
-
in whatever capacity or discipline.
With a unique 5 round bear heart sweat, the sacred wisdoms of The Medicine Wheel
Way will support, respect and honour us as medicine men and women in our own
right. Working with bear spirit we shall learn how to build a bridge that connects
us to the
healing world view of the shaman.
The skill of the shaman is to enter this world view, discover the root cause
of dis-harmony and bring back the healing cure that originates from the essence
of spirit.
Bethlehem himself experienced burnout when he was a successful psychotherapist, and so teaches from personal experience.
Preventing & Recovering from Burnout
Over the years that these camps have
been running, Bethlehem has worked with many healthcare
professionals, who have experienced different forms of burnout and work-related
illness/stress.
Bethlehem will show us how to re-connect with the core energy both within
and without. He will reveal to us these hidden healing fields of power
that the shaman has access to within the sacred wisdom of The Medicine
Wheel.
