GALLEYWINTER FARM / GAIL TODTER

The dream is a small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens into that primeval night that was soul long before there was a conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could every reach. Carl Gustav Jung


*BREATHWORK

*DREAMWORK

*SOULWORK

*HEARTWORK

*ARTWORK


Our BREATHWORK has been compared to the effects of plant medicine practiced by shamans and indigenous cultures ~ or the mystic’s trance evoked through prayer, dance, deprivation ~ and powerful edge-state experiences within ancient civilizations throughout the ages. Our whole weekend of inner work, outer depth of sharing and ceremony completes the journey inward with soul-satisfying integration of body and  mind, emotions and spirit. We’ll share the journey with like-minded souls all having their unique journey. Experience soul sharing. Celebrate and dance. Expand breathwork illumination through self-awareness processes. Become more of who we are.  


Rather we journey through our

PERSONAL UNCONSCIOUS

TRANSPERSONAL COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS or

COSMIC KNOWING

we can anticipate "change that is permanent" ~ as one Virginia *breather* recently declared about her experience of the work.


Within this powerful yet simple process of conscious deep breathing until a trance state is reached, guided by uniquely created two-hour music sets - all tracking the vibration of our chakras from deep tribal drumming to ethereal chants and bells - *breathers* report experiences that range from:

*deep visceral healing - especially from the pull of addiction

*slow dawning of deep insight about their whole life

*journeying to other lands other cultures ancient and contemporary

* experiencing themselves as another person another time

*connecting with the Mystery that binds the universe together

*awakening to feelings of limitless love and compassion

*death and rebirth

*overcoming darkness

*a flash of knowing that leads to the next right step on the path of personal growth and transformation

 Without expectation or anything required, we share the common experience of uniquely personal inner work. *Breathers* return again and again whenever we feel drawn to deepening our soul journey. As many of you have come to expect, this work is forever fresh and new. No matter how much we’ve *breathed* our meditative experience is as multi-faceted and individual as we each are. No two Breathworks alike. Always a surprise. Remarkably what we need.


Our experience is enhanced by Gail’s artful meals prepared with consciousness around nourishing soul food.

Weekend Experience including all meals $450.00

Scheduling details and links to payment portals are shared once you arrange with Sandy to attend the weekend:

ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT: For new *breathers* a 1x1 conversation is required. Either by phone or in person at Sandy’s office: 3054B Berkmar Dr., CVille 22901.  

Always as I prepare to send out emails and envision all of you changing your lives through this simple yet powerful process, my heart feels warm and expands with certain awareness that this is the work I am here to do. Especially now for this expansive, multi experience weekend within a heart-group of like-minded souls. Who are also drawn to deep healing.

Blessings and all things good ~

Sandy

or COSMIC KNOWING

we can anticipate "change that is permanent."

As one Virginia *breather* recently declared about her experience within this powerful yet simple trance enhancing process of conscious deep breathing paired with music. The depth of the deep-breathing trance state is amplified by a womb of intense sound from a uniquely created, two-hour musical journey designed to track the chakra vibrational frequencies…from deep tribal drumming to ethereal chants and bells.

*Breathers* report experiences that range from:

*a healing - especially from the pull of addiction

*a slow dawning of deep insight about their whole life

*journeying to other lands other cultures ancient and contemporary

* experiencing themselves as another person another time

*connecting with the mystery that binds the universe together

*awakening to feelings of limitless love and compassion

*death and rebirth

*overcoming darkness

*a flash of clarity that leads to the next right step on their path of personal growth and transformation

The WORK is experienced within a group of like-minded others having an individual experience. Without expectation or anything required, we share the common experience of uniquely personal inner work. *Breathers* return again and again whenever we feel drawn to come. As many of you have come to expect, this work is forever fresh and new. No matter how much we’ve *breathed* our meditative experience is as multi-faceted and individual as we each are. No two Breathworks alike. Always a surprise. Remarkably what we need.

Bring a journal! You'll want to record the experience to unpack as deepening insights come in the days and weeks that follow.

Breathwork Experience on Saturday $200.00

 Levels of Consciousness In-Depth Teaching & Processing on Sunday $50.00

Early Bird April 1st For Whole Two-Day Experience

$225.00

For our daylong Saturday Breathwork you’ll want to dress in comfortable yoga-type clothes. And bring a bedroll or blanket or quilts, warm covering and a pillow as if you’re camping out. This work of heart is begun lying on your back. Cushioning is especially helpful to the process. The whole Breathwork Process is completed by creating a mandala that represents your journey, group sharing, and ceremony. 

During our Saturday lunch break we'll have a soulful encounter with horse energy. And if your need is to be quiet within yourself, trails and trees are available for ME Time. 

On Sunday we'll explore 

Levels of Consciousness 

Prepare a Lifeline composed from events in your waking life 

Gain Insight ~ Awareness ~ Direction ~ Meaning 

from messages laid down within the symbology of Breathwork. 

For our two-hour lunch break on Saturday we offer GF vegetarian and vegan choices: hummus, dippers, veggies, fruit, nuts, chocolate, along with coffee and teas. If you want to bring your own lunch and snacks we can arrange space in the refrigerator. As with any meditative practice, a light breakfast and eating lightly during the day works best. Be sure and bring a covered water bottle you can refill.

ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT: For new *breathers* an interview is required. In person at my office: 3054B Berkmar Dr., CVille 22901. Or by phone @ 434-270-0432. Usually 30 minutes answers all the questions we need to consider to make sure this process is right for you. Email: sandyfostermorrison@yahoo.com

Always as I prepare to send out emails and begin to envision all of you changing your lives through this simple yet powerful process, my heart feels warm and expands with certain awareness that this is the work I am here to do.

BRIDGE BETWEEN THE WORLDS

https://bridgebetweentheworlds.com/


$150.00


Our Breathwork Experience has been compared to the effects of *plant medicine* practiced by shamans and indigenous cultures, or to the mystic’s trance evoked through prayer, dance, deprivation or other edge-state experiences in cultures throughout the ages. Whether we journey into our bigger story through our Personal Unconscious, the Transpersonal or the Cosmic levels of awareness, many of you report feeling changed by a healing experience, a slow dawning of deep knowing, body awareness or limitless love and compassion, the sense of having the cobwebs brushed away and mind, body and soul refreshed and clear, and often a flash of inspiration that leads to the next right step on our path of personal growth and transformation.

This work is experienced within a group of like-minded others having an individual experience. Without expectation or anything required, we share the common experience of uniquely personal inner work. And so we return again and again whenever we feel drawn to come. As many of you have come to expect, this work is forever fresh and new no matter how much we’ve *breathed*. This meditative experience is as multi-faceted and individual as we each are. No two Breathworks alike. Always a surprise. and Usually just exactly what we need.

In preparation for the day you’ll want to dress in comfortable yoga-type clothes. And bring a bedroll or blanket or quilts, warm covering and a pillow as if you’re camping out. This work of heart is begun lying on our back. Cushioning is especially helpful to the process. The whole Breathwork Process is completed by creating a mandala that represents your journey, group sharing, and a closing ceremony.

Grazing choices are offered for our two-hour lunch break: hummus, dippers, veggies, fruit, nuts, chocolate, along with coffee and teas. You are welcome to use the refrigerator if you want to bring your own lunch. As with any meditative practice, eating lightly work best.

If you haven’t experienced Maggie McIlvaine’s Bridge Between the Worlds prepare to feel captured by the natural beauty, places to wander and sit by the lake, and the enveloping serenity of our process room.

For an easy payment and to secure your place please visit my website. There is a PayPal button at the bottom of the home page. Add a $5. service fee. Or mail a check to Sandy Foster Morrison, MA/LPC, 977 Seminole Trail, PMB 359, Charlottesville 22901.

The Breathwork Process

On April 21st we're here again! Opening the doorway to non-ordinary states of consciousness through the simple process of deep breath accompanied by a two-hour mixed set of especially evocative music.

 

Our Breathwork Experience has been compared to the effects of *plant medicine* practiced by shamans in indigenous cultures, or to the mystic's trance evoked through prayer, dance, deprivation or other edge-state experiences practiced in cultures throughout the ages.

The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul, opening into that cosmic night which was psyche long before there was any ego-consciousness, and will will remain psyche no matter how far our ego-consciousness extends. C. G. JUNG

Whether you are new to this work or an experienced breather your experiences are no less profound, insightful or life-changing each time you experience the work. The incremental effect of going directly to soul - or as some might say your Higher Self - for life-direction and healing through the psychoactive Breathwork Process will over time, profoundly heal and transform your life. In this work you will experience
 

·      Elevating Consciousness

·      Birthing New Aspects Of Self

·      Identifying Life Purpose

·      Transcending 3D Awareness

·      Healing Body & Mind, Emotions & Spirit

·      Removing Karmic Patterns

·      Experiencing Past Lives

·      Connecting With Life Passion

·      Embodying Spirit

·      Revelation of Your Bigger Story

THE BREATHWORK PROCESS opens inner pathways that roll through time and send breathers on inner journeys: Personal…Transpersonal…Cosmic. The music meditation process is paired with creating a mandala that visually represents your journey and is completed with group sharing and ceremony. Similar to the effects of shamanic drumming, Buddhist chanting, trance dancing and mystical spiritual practices throughout recorded time, we’ll travel between the worlds and return with knowledge and insight that lightens our load and shines light on the path ahead. 

You’ll spend all day within your own inner-guided process, and yet together in community with like-minded men and women in a tranquil natural setting.

Many people ask how this work is like other breathing processes. There are differences. Unlike other breathworks that you may have heard of or experienced, this form, Integrative Breathwork - pioneered by Dr. Stanislov Grof as Holotropic Beathwork and enlarged by psychotherapist and mythologist Jacquelyn Small (Awakening in Time, The Sacred Purpose of Being Human) – is not about technique or muscular deep breathing throughout the process.

We deep breathe only at the beginning of the work until a meditative trance state is achieved. The trajectory of this Work - although body-conscious - is more about allowing your own spiritual insight and healing to arise from within. 
 

Details: You will want to bring a yoga mat or similar cushioning pad, quilts, blankets, pillows and your personal journal. Please wear comfortable yoga-type clothes. And eat a light meal on the morning of the workshop and during the day. Tea and snacks – nuts, fruit, hummus and GF options - will be provided. Our setting at Bridge Between the Worlds is extraordinarily tranquil and beautiful. Refrigerator space is available if you choose to bring lunch. Some just graze on munchies at hand. An 9:45AM arrival is recommended in order to settle in and be prepared to begin at 10:00AM.

No matter how many times I've held space for this deep heartwork - and it has been hundred and hundreds of times over the last 30 years - I'm always reverently blown away by how beautiful human beings are when we open-up to the depths of love and wisdom that is there inside just waiting to be touched and told. Until we meet again. My heart to yours...

Registration for the full day is $150. To place your name on the list, call, text – 210-323-8201 or 434-270-0432 or email – sandyfostermorrison@yahoo.com Payment can be mailed to 977 Seminole Trail, PMB 359, 22901. Or when using paypal add a $5.00 service charge to $150 fee.

LOVE Anyway Process Group

to Feb 21

LOVE Anyway Process Group

WEDNESDAY FOR 6 WEEKS

JANUARY 10, 17, 24, 31 / FEBRUARY 7, 21

Our original time-limited working group made up of both men and women who are invested in their transformation has re-upped for another 6 weeks. We are adding one member to this closed group. And because of the enthusiasm for group connections and growth achieved both from relationship building and insights gained, the possibility of another similar group is on the table. Contact me if you are interested. 

Presently, this group will continue to work with four LOVE ANYWAY principles based on a dream-teaching by a wise Yoda. And utilize experiential tools like active imagination, Gestalt, psychodrama, body focusing, sculpting and any other experiential process that arises out of the group. To work toward wholeness we'll integrate body and mind, heart and spirit.  Most especially I hope we laugh! A spiritual man who was once my teacher said that we are closest to Spirit when we laugh. Always, the kind of laughter that comes from sharing our ironic struggles toward wholeness is maybe the most healing part of all our work.

In addition we're adding a five point process for first becoming aware of what you want changed and then the steps for carrying that out. As well as principles of healthy vs toxic relationships will be integrated into the empowering process of being truly, honestly yourself and shedding any inauthentic - however culturally sanctions - aspects of your personality.

Confidentiality is key to insure a high-functioning progress oriented group. Cost is $40. per group with a discount of $20. offered if you choose to pay the group fee at one time.

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you…Don't go back to sleep.

You must ask for what you really want…Don't go back to sleep.

People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch.  The door is round and open…Don't go back to sleep. Rumi

Through THE BREATHWORK PROCESS you can expect to experience extraordinary life-changing awareness…

The music meditation process is paired with creating a mandala that visually represents your journey and is completed with group sharing and ceremony.

ASSISTED BY MARTHA LEESMAN, MS/LPC

BRIDGE BETWEEN THE WORLDS
2395 PADDOCK WOODS ROAD
KESWICK, VA 22947

The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the power of all true science.  Albert Einstein

Through THE BREATHWORK PROCESS you can expect to experience extraordinary life-changing awareness...

·      Elevating Consciousness

·      Birthing New Aspects Of YourSELF

·      Identifying Life Purpose

·      Transcending 3D Awareness

·      Healing Body & Mind, Emotions & Spirit

·      Removing Karmic Patterns

*     Healing The Source of Addictions

·      Experiencing Past Lives

·      Connecting With Life Passion

·      Embodying Spirit

·      Revelation of Your Bigger Story

In non-ordinary ways The Breathwork Process opens inner pathways that roll through time and send breathers on inner journeys: Personal…Transpersonal…Cosmic. The music meditation process is paired with creating a mandala which visually represents your journey and is completed with group sharing and ceremony. The entire experience is steered by your personally directed inner awareness…or as some might say, your Higher Self. Similar to the effects of shamanic drumming, Buddhist chanting, trance dancing and mystical spiritual practices throughout recorded time, we’ll travel between the worlds and return with knowledge and insight that lightens our load and shines light on the path ahead.

Not only does this work enlarge any therapeutic and meditative process, it’s profoundly effective in healing the source of addictions. 

You’ll spend all day within your own personal, inner-guided process, and yet together in community with like-minded men and women at the enchanting Bridge Between the Worlds in Keswick. Artfully hosted by Healing Hands of Light practitioner and impeccable creator of beauty…Maggie McIlvaine. 

Many people ask how this work is like other “breathing” processes. There are differences. Unlike other "breathworks" that you may have heard of or experienced, this form, Integrative Breathwork - pioneered by Dr. Stanislov Grof as Holotropic Beathwork and enlarged by psychotherapist and mythologist Jacqueline Small (Awakening in Time, Becoming Naturally Therapeutic, The Sacred Purpose of Being Human) – is not about technique or muscular deep breathing throughout the process. We deep breathe only at the beginning of the work until a meditative trance state is achieved. The trajectory of The Work - although body-conscious - is more about allowing your own spiritual insight and healing to arise from within. 

Here's how it rolls: You will want to bring a yoga mat or similar cushioning pad, quilts, blankets, pillows and your personal journal. Please wear comfortable yoga-type clothes. And eat a light meal on the morning of the workshop and during the day. Tea and snacks – nuts, fruit, hummus and GF options - will be provided. Our setting is extraordinarily tranquil and beautiful. Bridge Between The Worlds has a full kitchen with refrigerator space if you choose to bring lunch. Some just graze on muchies at hand. 

An 8:30AM to 8:45AM arrival is recommended in order to settle in and be prepared to begin at 9:00AM.

My beautiful friend and San Antonio psychotherapist, Martha “Marti” Leesman – who many of you met from her November and March Breathwork time with us - will once again join us to assist in facilitating the work. 

Registration for the full day is $150. This includes – if you are drawn to attend - a Follow-Up Group 2 weeks after the Breathwork.

To place your name on the list, call, text – 210-323-8201 or email – sandyfostermorrison@yahoo.com . Your payment will ensure your place. Please do register on or before June 10th so we can make sure all your needs are accommodated. 24 is the maximum number for the workshop.

If this is your first time to breathe, we need to chat to be sure you have all questions answered and this work is right for you right now. Call text or email and we’ll set up a time that works. No commitment required. Preparation is key.

No other therapeutic midwifing that I’m privileged to offer gives me deeper satisfaction than being here with each of you as you unpack your Inner Truth. My heart to your heart. See you soon…

“Vision is more than looking.”
David Eagleman / Neuroscientist

We’re breathing again on March 18th! Remembering the remarkable journeys first-time Charlottesville breathers experienced in October, I’m projecting more profound experiences for all of you. It’s not just the process alone…initial deep breathing to achieve a trance state and an individual two-hour music meditation of depth. The energy of these Virginia mountains coupled with the advanced energies that all of you bring and voila…we have extraordinary insights and emotional healings that transcend 3D consciousness. 

*The Breathwork Process*  - as many of you have experienced – opens inner pathways that roll through time and send breathers on inner journeys, potentially transcending all levels of awareness: Personal…Transpersonal…Cosmic. The meditation process is paired with creating a mandala that visually represents your journey and is completed with group sharing and ceremony. The entire experience is steered by inner awareness. What you need. Right now. And guided by your teacher within…or as some might say, your Higher Self. Similar to the effects of shamanic drumming, Buddhist chanting, trance dancing and mystical spiritual practices throughout recorded time, we’ll travel between the worlds and return with knowledge and insight that lightens our load and shines light on the path ahead. Not only does this work enlarge any therapeutic and meditative process, it’s profoundly effective in healing the source of addictions.  

We’ll spend all day within our own personal, inner-guided process, and yet together in community with like-minded men and women at the enchanting Bridge Between the Worlds in Keswick. Artfully hosted by Healing Hands of Light practitioner and impeccable creator of beauty…Maggie McIlvaine. 

Many people ask how this work is like other “breathing” processes. There are differences. Unlike other "breathworks" that you may have heard of or experienced, this form, Integrative Breathwork - pioneered by Dr. Stanislov Grof as Holotropic Beathwork and enlarged by psychotherapist and mythologist Jacqueline Small (Awakening in Time, Becoming Naturally Therapeutic, The Sacred Purpose of Being Human) – isn’t about technique or muscular deep breathing throughout the process. We deep breathe in the beginning to carry ourselves into a meditative trance state. The trajectory of The Work - although body-conscious - is more about allowing your own spiritual insight and healing to arise from within. 

Here's how it rolls:
You will want to bring a yoga mat or similar cushioning pad, quilts, blankets, pillows and your personal journal. Please wear comfortable yoga-type clothes. And eat a light meal on the morning of the workshop and during the day. Tea and snacks – nuts, fruit, hummus and GF options - will be provided. Our setting is extraordinarily tranquil and beautiful. Bridge Between The Worlds has a full kitchen with refrigerator space if you choose to bring lunch. Some just graze on muchies at hand.

An 8:30 AM to 8:45 AM arrival is recommended in order to settle in and be prepared to begin at 9:00AM.

My beautiful friend and San Antonio psychotherapist, Martha “Marti” Leesman– who many of you met from her October time with us - will once again join us to assist in facilitating the work. 

Registration for the full day is $150.
To place your name on the list, call, text – 210-323-8201 or email – sandyfostermorrison@yahoo.com . Your payment will ensure your place. 
(You can make a payment via PayPal here)

Please do register on or before March 11th so we can make sure all your needs are accommodated.

If this is your first time to breathe, we need to chat to be sure you have all questions answered and this work is right for you right now. Call text or email and we’ll set up a time that works. No commitment required. Preparation is key.

No other therapeutic midwifing that I’m privileged to offer gives deeper satisfaction than being here with each of you as you unpack your Inner Truth. My heart to your heart.

See you soon…

HOLOTROPHIC/INTEGRATIVE BREATHWORK

 Through a combination of deep-breathing and evocative music, the “breather” enters into a shamanic type trance. Revelations experienced in non-ordinary states of consciousness create expanded self-knowledge, wisdom, insight, emotional break-through, healing, and transformational spiritual connection…all or some, in the space of two hours each session.

Breathwork / Heartwork Daylong Retreat /Facilitated by Sandy Foster Morrison, MA/LPC and Dirk Magdahl, PhD/LPC

Breathwork / Heartwork Daylong Retreat /Facilitated by Sandy Foster Morrison, MA/LPC and Dirk Magdahl, PhD/LPC

Episcopal Diocese of West Texas - Bishop Jones Center

111 Torcido Dr, San Antonio, Texas 78209

 

The world, our lives...the planet often feels like it is erupting and spinning out of control. If we're at all awake we feel a little -- or a lot -- unsettled and are questioning ourselves. Wondering if we're on track or off. Wondering if we should make changes or stay steady right where we are. The truest and best guidance we can receive when the process of change and transformation are let loose in our lives, is to go inside and get clear with ourselves. 

For the past year, every 3 months Sandy and Dirk - therapists and guides for tranformative innerwork - have brought the powerful Breathwork / Heartwork process to San Antonio. Each Daylong Retreat answers the need so many are feeling for a shift in consciousness, and insights with which to direct our lives. Each workshop experience builds on the work of the "breathwork" before and incrementally enhances growth, healing, clarity, transformation of lifelong issues and psychospiritual growth. 

Workshops are spaced with three months in between, because often the insights brought up are so profound, it takes several months to absorb the wisdom gained...and to make the life changes that our inner guidance brought to light.

The Breathwork / Heartwork experience - deep breathing in the beginning to reach a meditative state, evocative music to carry us along on an inner journey, artwork and group sharing, open our creative imagination to glimpses of the future, as well as healing aspects of the past that could keep us from living true to ourself...a filled up human being with much to give to the world and those we love. This work largely enhances regular therapy and is now being widely used in addiction treatment facilities to effectively remove and heal the source of addictions. 


Participants will want to bring: yoga mat or similar cushioning pad, a quilt or blanket, pillow and your personal journal if you keep one. Please wear comfortable yoga-type clothes. And eat a light meal on the morning of the workshop and during the day.

Tea and snacks will be provided. There will be a two hour break for lunch and restaurants within easy walking distance. Because the setting is extraordinarily tranquil and beautiful, both inside and within the 3-acre walking paths - with many secluded benches on the grounds - we recommend that you consider bringing your own lunch in order to take full advantage of the setting. There is a kitchen available for our use.

8:30am arrival recommended in order to be ready to begin at 9:00am. 

Cost for full day is $150. Checks can be made out to Path of Direct Experience (PODE) or Sandy Foster Morrison or Dirk Magdahl and mailed to Sandy Foster Morrison @ 5150 Broadway, PMB 199, San Antonio 78209 or paypal @ sandyfostermorrison@yahoo.com with a $5. service fee added.
