These six workshops were designed to build in power and knowledge. Although each can be taken by itself and/or out of sequence, when taken together they gather in momentum and power with a series of initiations into a lineage of kahuna of the Order of Kane .

The Secret Teachings of Hawai`i

The Hawaiians believed that before one can know the secrets of life, one must master the secrets of the Self. With a deep understanding of psychology (they worked with the subconscious a thousand years before the West), the Hawaiians practiced secret healing techniques on both the body and the mind. They also worked with the secrets of Time in a way not found in other shamanic traditions. In this workshop, you will dive into the secret knowledge of the Hawaiians, transform yourself, and crack open the secrets ( huna ) of life.

This workshop is experiential. The first day will involve deep cleansing and self-work. The second day will give you practical tools and techniques for using power ( mana ) to heal yourself and others that you can immediately add to your healing practice and life. You will:

•  Learn how to access, accumulate, and direct mana (life force).

•  Work with the three spirits that create our lives (huna).

•  Find and work with the filaments of light that weave our reality.

•  Learn the secret of Time and how to use it for healing.

•  Perform ho'oponopono : The Hawaiian Sacred Rite of Forgiveness.

•  Be initiated into the use of ancient symbols that open the doors of power.

 

The Secrets of the Elements

Most indigenous cultures worked with the elements — the building blocks of the worlds. The Hawaiians, however, held secrets about the elements and used them in ways not found anywhere else. Mastering air, fire, water, and earth gives one healing power and secret knowledge of how the world works and how to change it. In this workshop you'll learn these secrets, how to use them to help others, and how to use the fifth element to grow spiritually.

The two days will involve hands-on practice, self-cleansing, and learning practical techniques in the use of the elements for healing. You will also:

•  Learn how to use the elements to heal yourself and others.

•  Learn how to flow the elements to fill a room, an object, or another person.

•  Learn the secrets of deconstruction and creation.

•  Learn how and when to use the elements on particular illnesses.

•  Learn the secret teaching of aloha and The Breath of God.

The Secrets of the Ancestors

The Hawaiians, like many other shamanic cultures, honored and worked closely with their ancestors (aumakua). They believed we are intimately linked to the ancestors and that they actively take part in our lives. Although the ancestors can be responsible for issues, stuck conditions, negative emotions, and illnesses, one of the secrets is that they can be healed. And when we heal the ancestors, we heal the entire lineage, ourselves, and our children.

The ancestors can also be an incredible source of power and wisdom. A kahuna was considered especially powerful and wise when he knew the secret of accessing the ancestors and retrieving their knowledge and skills to help him in his life.

In this workshop, you will learn the secrets of:

* The Hawaiian view of what happens after death.

* Finding ancestors who are lost in other worlds and assist them.

* Heal others by working with their ancestors.

* Finding and removing curses from our lineage.

* Creating a kaaha cord that connects us to the ancestors and summons their help and power.

The Secret of Aloha
and the Movement of the Soul

Aloha (love) fills the people of Hawaii with a gentle warmth. It is perhaps the one secret of the Hawaiians that can't be taught. But it can be awakened and nurtured and allowed to flow. When this happens, the soul moves and power, strength, and healing come together.

In this workshop, we will experience where aloha comes from and to where it flows. Through the family constellations of Bert Hellinger — whose techniques and discoveries demonstrate the mystery and power of aloha — we will find the source of love and use it to heal the ohana (family soul). If the ohana is left unhealed, we can become entangled in the lives of the ancestors and take on their fates. This is done out of love. But love can also heal the family soul and free us from living someone else's fate.

• Find ancestors who have been lost and forgotten and assist them.

• Free ourselves from entanglements in the lives of the ancestors.

• Discover the Power of Love that flows through the ohana (family soul).

• Experience the movement of the soul .

• Participate in family constellation work.

The Secrets of the Planets
(Connecting to the Spirits of the Planets)

Astrology most likely has its roots in shamanism. In this workshop, we will use shamanic techniques to delve into the mysteries of the planets and their influences on our lives. By following the clues the ancient Hawaiians left behind, we will discover how to work with the spirits that are the planets and harness their power to make what we truly want come true.

This workshop is particularly good for those who have done a lot of work on some area of their life that still doesn't seem to change, no matter how much clearing, praying, or healing they've done on it. The work here will take care of the final piece that keeps these conditions stuck.

•  Discover the effect the planets have on our lives.

•  Find out how to access the power of the planets for healing.

•  Work with the planets to remove the last obstacles to manifesting your desires.

•  Learn a system that will make a client's dreams come true.

•  Find out how to summon the power of the planets for healing in a group.

•  Learn new symbols that generate miracles.

An Immersion in the Power of Hawai`i

Family and Systems Constellations

“As long as our ancestors are still suffering within us, we cannot be truly happy. If we make a step with awareness. . . we do this for all the past and future generations. They all arrive at the same moment we arrive and we all find peace at the same time.” Thich Nhat Hahn, Buddhist monk.

“We are affected by the seven generations that come before us and affect the seven generations that will follow.” Francesca M. Boring, Shoshone elder.

Not only do our ancestors affect us through our DNA, but also through the events and traumas that happened to them. These events had effects that keep showing up generation after generation. Our emotional, mental, and physical problems — not to mention relationship issues — may not be ours at all. They may be these effects echoing throughout the family system.

Family constellations give the solutions to these effects. They reveal the past wrongs, suffering, and entanglements in our families and their effects on our lives. The constellations resolve these issues and allow the soul to move towards peace and understanding. A deep sense of wholeness follows.

In a family constellation, a person chooses others from the group to stand in for family members. After they are arranged in the room, the stresses on the family system come to light. These representatives surprisingly feel and think what the people they are standing in for felt and thought. The stresses on the system are then resolved and the love hidden in the system allowed to flow.

Similarly, in Systems Constellations, someone focuses on something in their life that isn't working and asks people to represent elements in that system. A system can be a business, a project or goal, a place, or an issue one has. The feelings and movements of the representatives then reveal hidden dynamics and entanglements in the system that stop the flow of energy and progress. The constellations shed light on these issues and may even resolve them, allowing energy to return and move the system toward its goal.

In Shamanic Constellations, the same methodology above is used, but we allow the influences of indigenous ways to enter the constellations. The healing power of rituals and spiritual representatives are used in these types of constellations. Some believe that this way of working harkens back to the origins of all constellation work.

Based on the discoveries of Bert Hellinger, this is a therapeutic technique that is acknowledged worldwide and growing in popularity in the United States . It is astonishing, powerful, and beautiful, loving work.
