About this event
Each of us embodies the imprint of countless generations—woven from triumph and grief, resilience and beauty. Our ancestral lineages carry both gifts and wounds shaped in the earliest chapters of our human story. Whether we choose to engage with these inheritances can deeply shape how we move through this fleeting, extraordinary life. In this free event, learn one reliable, established approach to ancestral and family healing.

Ancestral healing is the process of safely and directly coming into conscious relationship with our lineage ancestors for personal, family, and cultural healing. When approached with care, ancestral healing can loosen places of long-held stagnation, clarify life purpose, and strengthen our capacity to serve with resilience. Relating with the ancestors is accessible to all and a fundamental life skill.
