The Rite of the Womb: 
Munay-ki
 
March 23rd, 7-9pm  
$15 suggested donation
 
There is a lineage of women who freed themselves from suffering.  This lineage of women through the jungle medicine has given us the 13th rite of the Munay-Ki: The Rite of the Womb. This lineage of women wants us to remember:  The womb is not a place to store fear and pain; the womb is to create and give birth to life.  Once you receive it, you may share it with as many women as possible.  Let's heal our womb; let's heal our mother's, sister's, and daughter's wombs. And in this way bring healing to our Mother Earth.
Join Denise Exler and Mary Cline for this very special ceremony. We as women have accumulated in our wombs over this lifetime and through ancestral lines unwanted energies that we may not be even aware of. Imagine feeling lighter and cleansed after we release these blockages.
 
The ceremony will be held in the outdoor peace pavilion at 7 pm. Men are welcome to join in a supportive role. Proceeds from the $15 suggested donation will go to the Happehatchee Center.
 
Happehatchee Center is proud to be in partnership with the Pachamama Alliance.  The local SWFL Pachamama Alliance Community core group meets at Happehatchee on a regular basis.  Holley Rauen, our Vice-President will be co-facilitating this Symposium.  We encourage everyone at Happehatchee to take this training which opens doorways for spiritual and evolutionary activism.
