Emotional Alchemy Intro Class
Emotional Alchemy is a form of intuitive self care. It fuses the science of nervous system regulation with the spiritual practice of oracle card reading. It’s science and spirituality working in harmony to transmute (or alchemize) the state of your mind, body, and spirit in tandem.
In this intro class, you will learn how to transmute energetic and abstract messages from your spirit guides (also called angels or thought of as a highest self) and nervous system (which can look like anxiety, IBS, panic attacks, nightmares, negative self talk, etc) into practical information that can inform your self care routine, daily habits, and relationships. When we are brave enough to make changes in our lives to honor this information, we experience growth and transformation in it’s highest form.
In the first half of class, Quinn, a shamanic practitioner, will guide the group on how to pull oracle cards intentionally channeling the subconscious. One volunteer participant will be selected to do a reading in front of the group for a demo. In the second half of class, Hannah, a somatic practitioner, will introduce guided journaling prompts and teach how to use journaling to collect information from the nervous system about what has been revealed by our subconscious and what we can do with that information.
Don’t worry if you do not want to be the person in the demo. Each participant will have a card pulled for them by Quinn of a message from their guides about where they’re at in their healing journey. This card pulled for you will be used to inform your journaling during class.
Live Virtual Class: Wednesday, May 14th from 6:30-8:30 pm CST. A recording of the class will be sent to each participant, so if you can’t attend live you will still have all of the information.
This is a one-time class that serves as an intro to the six class series starting in June. Find more info on the series below.
Is the intro class just for beginners?
No! There is something to learn for everyone in this class. It serves as an introduction to the in-depth exploration of emotional alchemy, and is a great way to see if you enjoy working with Hannah and Quinn before committing to the six-month series. It is an intro class so we are covering the basics, but experienced card readers will learn how to use oracle cards with journaling for an added layer of nervous system regulation. Those who have been practicing somatic healing and nervous system regulation will learn how to incorporate oracle cards into their healing practices to connect with their spirituality.
What will be taught in the six month series starting in June?
The series will meet once a month and be a deep dive into connecting with the support from your nervous system and spiritual guides. You will learn 5 ways to connect with this guidance and how to track your nervous system to reveal unmet needs lingering in the shadows. Each participant will receive a new journal and their own oracle deck to use and practice with between meetings.
June: Working with earth energy and tracking where we feel physical sensations in the body.
July: Working with air energy and tracking information using the minds eye.
August: Working with fire energy and tracking how we respond in the heat of the moment to situations and in relationships.
September: Working with water-energy and trackng our emotions.
October: Working with Spirit-and tracking the purpose we assign to our lives.
November: Recap and celebration of growth.
How do I know if this group is for me?
-
No previous experience in oracle cards or somatic healing is required, but a curious mindset, interest in spirituality, and willingness to present with your bodily experiences will help you get the most out of this group.
-
Virtual groups are great for flexibility, accessibility, and people who love to be at home. If you are looking for in person support please look at the other offerings for therapists!
-
Being a part of a group as a participant can feel very vulnerable. Are you ready to have your healing be witnessed? Your grief be held? And to witness others without giving advice or stepping in? The purpose of the group in this case is to be present with others while taking care of yourself. This role of receiving can be uncomfortable but is important for growth.
-
This group is an affirming space for all sexual and gender identities. Both Hannah and Quinn are queer and love to support the queer community. There is 0 tolerance for hate or bigotry in this class.
-
People of color have likely had different experiences than white people on their healing journey and throughout their life. If you are unable to hold those experiences as valid without explanation this is not the group for you. There is 0 tolerance for hate or bigotry in this class.
-
There are sliding scale spots available to queer, BIPOC, and disabled folks. Please email Hannah directly at hannah@cleverbabes.co. No financial “proof” will be necessary. Please do not hesitate if this is something you need, we are happy to provide this service in an accessible way.
Group Facilitators:
Hannah (she/her) is a queer somatic practitioner and trauma informed designer. Her approach to nervous system regulation and healing work is based on the belief that you already have everything you need to heal within you. You may need help accessing this information from your nervous system, but it is innate in each of us. She sees her role as a facilitator between you and this inner “knowing” as she calls it. She believes you are the expert on your life and ultimately you are the only one who knows what you need. Her work is consent based and she hopes to help participants connect with the sensation of no and feel comfortable expressing it to themselves and others. Read more about Hannah here.
Quinn (she/her) has immersed herself in earth-based spirituality since the first time she was told, “go play outside and come back when it starts to get dark.” Playing in a shaded creekside of her childhood home in rural Nebraska Quinn ventured into realms she would only fully understand many years later. These early life experiences became the foundation for her Shamanic education which focuses on Celtic and Druid traditions and drum journeying as a way to connect to the spirit world. Quinn has been actively studying and training with experienced elders for the last 8 years in preparation to help her clients connect more deeply with themselves, their guides and their own inner shaman. Quinn’s modalities include intuitive channeling, divination techniques, sacred art and astrology. She teaches an immersive Herbalism Apprenticeship at Sacred Earth Arts in Kansas City, Kansas and hosts a variety of classes from home herbalism techniques to Tarot reading and plant meditation.
Alongside her Shamanic education Quinn has also studied extensively in the field of herbal medicine making and North American medicinal plants. She owns and operates Wildcraft Co., a herbal self-care business that specializes in plant-based body care products with an emphasis in aromatherapy, pure ingredients and minimalist recipes. Wildcraft’s motto is “Radical Self-Care”, which to Quinn means looking beyond what is comfortable and getting to the heart of your needs, on a mind, body and soul level.
Cancellation Policy:
There are no refunds or cancellations for this virtual class. A recording will be sent out to all participants, so if you can’t attend live you will still have access to the information.
