You will also learn how to bring death into your awareness as a guide for living with purpose and how recapitulation can help reclaim your energy from past experiences.

Through online courses, one-on-one mentoring & in-person workshops, Joel trains people in a highly effective way to reclaim vital energy & attention utilizing the Toltec knowledge base. These are powerful nonlinear redistribution techniques that guide & support students in discovering clear purpose, increasing awareness, getting grounded, reclaiming focus & accessing strong intent.

The dreaming arts are energetic practices utilized by shamanic practitioners to achieve unique states of awareness and perception, and they can be useful for anyone wishing to strengthen their lives in any way, as they lend one the energy needed to make real change.
