Herbal Medicine Courses In Algarve With International Teachers
Firewalk Ceremony
with Fiona McKenzie
Sat 27th Jan 4.30pm onwards
The History of Firewalking
People have always used fire rituals. They are empowering, liberating and healing. They make us realise that there is more to us than we have been led to believe, make us curious about the power of intention and the human mind. What else are we capable of? How can we evolve more quickly?
Fire walking is a deeply personal and also very communal experience. So whether you think you're going to walk or not, come prepared to join in. None of us really knows what we are going to do until faced with the embers. You are encouraged to follow your own inner guidance. All choices are honoured and bring their own rewards.
It is worth putting some thought into how you will use this experience to help you in your life. What is it that you are not doing that you wish you were doing, that you think you can't do?
Cost
55 euros including Supper. Arrival 4.30pm
About Fiona
Fiona is an experienced and inspiring Firewalk Instructor, trained by Peggy Dylan.
She has been Firewalking and involved in healing arts for over 30 years. Her work, be it Firewalking, teaching Yoga, Shamanic Bodywork, Intuitive Readings or facilitating The Work of Byron Katie is born out of a deep interest in people, a fascination with the interplay of spirit, thought, emotion and the body, as well as a great love of nature and the elements.
Her intention is to energise and empower people to access their own inner resources, so they can be a healing force on and for the earth.
Firewalking is a very effective and exhilarating way to do this.
Some testimonials:
"Fiona is a person who is not afraid to go in deep and explore her own vulnerability and is able to”midwife” others to the same. She is caring and daring, using an eclectic range of techniques and skills to which she brings her own unique quality.” Aine K.
"I am so glad I have met Fiona and she is in my life. She was recommended to me by a woman I met at a party who said Fiona had given her the best massage she’d ever had. She was not joking! Fiona is amazing, she really listens before each treatment to what is going on in my life and responds accordingly. I always feel better afterwards. I have been on one of her firewalking retreats too. It was a truly special night, like going on a soul searching adventure. I love the fact that Fiona knows all these farmers that live across Scotland and that she makes these really special retreats just for small groups, it does make you remember what is wonderful about life. I am glad there are people out there like Fiona who help facilitate health and happiness. There is help out there for people who seek it! ” Clare McG
