September 08, 2021 The Animals as Allies: Remembering How to Listen
I invite you to come back into being, to sit with me as we embark on the journey of great remembering. Remembering that we are not only the Little Brothers and Sisters to all that surrounds us, but also that we are them and they are us. They - we - have been waiting and watching for the moment to listen. The Animals have so much to share with us, not only wisdom but truth about ourselves. Even the most unexpected creatures, mundane and fantastic, offer up alliance if we are willing to sit and listen.

In this LIVE talk we discuss:
•What is the difference between an Ancestral Ally, Lifetime Ally, and Situational Ally?
•How can I identify my Allies?
•How can I work with my Allies?
•How can I honor my Allies?

About Casey Certain
Casey Certain has felt deeply connected to the Blue Ridge Mountains of South Carolina since childhood and began welcoming the friendship and messages from the Animals since that time. Honing her skills through observation and education, she also works to collect and retell the Animals’ cultural stories as they see fit. Her mission has been to aid in the universal process of learning, growing, and healing as we each acknowledge not only our own personal Divine existence but the Divine existence and connection of each and every other being. After serving youth who were from at-risk situations for seven years, Casey began to embrace her identity and role of not only teacher but healer in 2020.
Working to explore, record, and share what the Animals, Plants, and Land wish to share and teach, she now offers private sessions and retreats as an Integrative Healing Arts Practitioner at her homestead in Walhalla, South Carolina, with her husband David. She is trained in hypnotherapy, meditation, breathwork, yoga, aromatherapy, auriculotherapy, among other modalities.
Her great joy, however, is introducing individuals to the Animal Allies who have been working, and who wish to continue working, with them in order to bring balance to their healing journey. Her own journey is assisted most frequently by Rabbit, Blue Jay, Fox, Crow, and Black Snake.
You can learn more about her homestead and healing arts practice at reidhomestead.com and find some of her recorded Animal Meditations on her Patreon Inner Certainty Healing Arts.

How can we root ancient stories in ecology?
What makes ancient myths potent in the age of ecosystem collapse?
How does storytelling allow us to transcend our human narratives?
What is the role of modern science in reinterpreting ancient myths?
How can we complicate our ideas of progress and individuality via folklore and biology?
Are there any modern examples of these ancient mythic figures?
How has the history of monotheism obscured the biodiversity of masculine spiritualities and archetypes? In particular, the figures of Dionysus, Orpheus, Tolkien, Rabbi Yeshua, Tristan, Merlin the Wizard, Parzifal, and King David were focus points of Sophie's recent books.
In this live discussion with Sophie, you will have the opportunity to learn some beautiful wisdom teachings from her and to ask questions.

May 28, 2021Touching the Divine Through Embodied Consent
Join us for a conversation and practice to learn simple tools to engage more consciously with the world — from our relationships with one another to our relationship with the earth.

Consent goes beyond touch and beyond the bedroom, and it touches every aspect of our lives. The more you connect with the wisdom in your body, the more authentic your expressions become — whether it’s stating what you want for yourself, or what you are willing to engage in with another.

In this episode we explore:
Connecting to subtle sensation and a feeling of aliveness
Connecting to your yes and no and feeling it in your the body
The challenges of asking for what you want and putting your desires forward

April 10, 2021 Francis Weller - An apprenticeship with Sorrow - Live Interview
Grief and loss touch us all, arriving at our door in many ways. It comes swirling on the winds of divorce, or the death of someone dear, as an illness that alters the course of a life. For many of us, our grief is tied intimately to the ravages we witness daily to watersheds, forests and the disappearance of species, the silencing of languages, and the coarsening of culture. And yet our encounters with sorrow are often met with confusion, fear, and overwhelm. We are uncertain how to meet this difficult guest when it surfaces in our lives.

This brief presentation will explore the elements of an Apprenticeship with Sorrow. It is through the rites of grief that we are, in turn, ripened as human beings. Grief invites gravity and depth into our world. Our work is to understand grief not only as an emotion but also a core faculty of being human, a profound capacity to metabolize sorrow into something nutrient-dense for the community. This apprenticeship is, at heart, about the crafting of elders capable of meeting the pain and suffering of the world with a dignified and robust bearing. This is soul activism intended to foster deep cultural change.
