Yarn Fire: Unearthing Your Origin

Home Healing Circle

by Jack Sheppard

Hello community! My name is Jack Sheppard, I am a First Nation spiritual healer, seer, somatic worker, and creative storyteller, and place-based connection facilitator. I would love you to join me for my Home Healing Circle event, Yarn Fire – Unearthing Your Origin. I will be guiding a gentle and caring process of spiritual and somatic Deep Listening, where we will be recalling and connecting with our true and authentic being as expressions of Mother Nature. Through trance healing, embodiment, Deep Listening, and intuitive Creative Expression, I will be leading us move into a grounded and embodied state of being where we will explore the healing power and wisdom of our bodies, and through this, building a deeper relationship with nature (referred to as Country by First Nations Mob). We will be moving into the recesses of our embodied conscious awareness to explore oneness with the divine spirit of the great Mother. Through this, we will be holding the intention to explore and remember the ancient truth of who we are as expressions of Country – Mother Nature.

I am of the Tagalaka Clan of Far North Queensland. I grew up in Narrm, Melbourne, on BoonWurrung Country. I guide this experience through my personal and relational Cultural embodiments and perspectives, drawing on my embodied and spiritual connection to Country. Through this, I hope to bring a unique approach for you to explore your soulful and embodied expression as nature. As a process spiritual and embodied remembrance, we will explore an activation of recollection, to remember the vital truth, that as children of our great Mother Gaia, we have a responsibility to return to our truth and our birthrights to live a self-empowered existence on Earth, and to take up the responsibility to be stewards and voices for Country.

What to expect:

I will be channelling the spirit of Sofia to assist in the guidance of this sacred space. For the session, I will guide participants through a step-by-step process of unfolding a heart-to-heart relationship with nature. Participants will layer into a state of Deep Listening, slowly opening into an altered state of consciousness where the soul’s resonance of Nature will unearth. I will guide you on a walk through your sacred inner landscapes, moving deeper into a state of listening, feeling, soaking, and opening into a conscious awareness, to co-become with your inner nature. Participants will merge with the divine light of this place and moving into a complete oneness with the essence of land, exploring the depths of unconditional love, compassion and creative potential that emanates within the land.

I will this guide you to re-orient anchor this energy back into the body, and work with it to inspire healing in the energy fields of the body. We will then move this exploration into a creative space, where I will guide a session of creative expression and flow, feeding in creative prompts to help you invoke a creative stream of consciousness. We will be working with the healing energy of the land creatively. This process will help you further explore, play, and discover more in an active and co-creative state. This will likely happen through intuitive drawing, writing and/or dance-movement.

We will then taper creative stream of consciousness down and do some optional reflective writing or drawing to process the overall experience. You will be able to take space for yourself, to process and be with your new discoveries and potential new realisation.

We will then bring the space into yarning circle, where you have the option to share any thoughts, feelings, or reflections. There is no obligation to speak in this circle.

This will bring our shared space to a close.

We will slowly re-orient back to the space before leaving. Tea and snacks will be available.

This is a home healing circle, and is a scared space of trust. I hold this space with respect, safety and care for each and every participant. This session is designed for participants to take the expeirence at a pace that feels safe, supported, comfortable for you. The prompts are a guide for what is essentially a grounding point for for you to invite more awareness into this space. I will be working to the best of my capacity to walk with you at each step of the journey. This is an opportunity for Mob to occupy a safe, nurturing and non-judgemental space to re-connect on a embodied, soulful and spiritual level.

“Jack Sheppard’s class was a somatic and spiritual moving experience with imagery visualisation connected to my cognitive mind and psychological heart. The body entered a state of dreaming when sleeping, where subconsciousness leads the movement with self-consciousness at the same time. The way of this guided improvisation is and unique sensation, a method I had never experienced before, as I feel like I have travelled to another space and time with my soul while I moved in reality responding to that space and time. After the class, I felt spiritually full-filled and recharged.”
