Module Six

Metabolizing with the Living Earth

We invite here a period of deep integration through land-based practice and living contemplation. The Release marks a turning point in the arc of the course: the threshold between descent and return. It is a sacred pause. We step away from screen learning and re-enter the slower rhythms of the Earth. This continues the learning journey in another form.
