the Beyond
"Ritual is a way for us to find our way to wholeness, peace, self-acceptance, and acceptance of others. Ritual allows us to connect with the self, the community, and the natural forces around us. Ritual helps us remove blocks between us and our true spirit. They help us to consciously incorporate healthy, genuine spiritual evolution and to dwell in the sacred in a way that truly heals us."
— Sobonfu Somé |
"I highly recommend the Beyond program at Soulcraft. What started as a difficulty to commit to a time intensive program, was quickly transformed into a wealth of resources, friendships, and a strengthened ability to tap into the many connections that exist beyond the world of our five senses. With a smile of contentment on my face, I still deeply feel the transformative nature of the community, laughter, ceremonies, songs, education and experiences in nature from this program. As such, I am eternally grateful that I made the choice to commit to myself by enrolling. With so many memories, shifts and new connections, I have fortified myself for a lifetime with these gifts from the Beyond" -Brandi Lynn Vozos

"The Beyond course was an integral part of my spiritual journey last year. It expanded both my worldview and sense of self, and deepened my connection to the beautiful and supportive web of relations around us, which Monique has a great gift for illuminating.
The Beyond challenged me in the best ways, I grew so much. The length and pace of the course allowed for ample integration of the content into my daily life. By the time it was over, I felt like I had made lifelong friends with the others in my cohort. I would definitely recommend it to anyone craving authentic connection in an increasingly disconnected, artificial age". -Nina Montenegro |
A Transformative and Healing Journey with the Elements
Imagine having a diverse world full of friends with various talents, ready to be called on at anytime, there to help you through any mundane or difficult task -and knowing exactly how to ask for and get that support!
Can you feel how much lighter, easier, satisfying this fully supported life would be? This is what life connected to the spirit of nature and all its elements can be. It is a life fully in the flow, alive, and helpful. |
The CHrysalis
This class is a container, a place of metamorphosis, that holds a deep connection to a lineage of grandmothers and grandfathers who lived before us and by the earth's rhythms. Within its walls is a learning environment that is intimate, brave, and fun. It gives an opportunity to have conversation and learning that is ongoing, and builds over time.
This class is immersive and fully experiential. We will dive together into nature and many of its elements, intimately getting to know and working with the spirit of these powerful beings. Using art, craft, ritual, and ceremony we will create a reciprocal, cherished relationship between us and each element. It is a chance to engage with nature and spirit in profound ways that help heal us and the world around us.
It is a time of expansion, of slowing down, and engaging all our senses.
