OUR ROOTS

BROUGHT TO YOU BY

WAKING SEED

Nico Zuluaga

EVER GET THE FEELING YOU'RE MEANT FOR SOMETHING GREATER?

...like there's more to this life than you've been told? An ache within telling you there's something missing? 

What if you chose to lean into that quiet inner knowing? To trust your senses and follow the wandering, curious path of your heart?

Chances are, if you're here, you likely heard the call long ago. And you're not alone.

 

Collectively, we are being invited to step more fully into our authentic expression. Away from conditioned programming, false beliefs about our reality, where we come from, and what we're capable of.

To rekindle our connection to the Earth and Stars.

To step into the courage it takes to rewrite our own stories, reclaim our lost traditions, and heal ourselves.


To awaken and nurture the seeds of our higher calling and live with passion, and purpose. Not just for our own wellbeing, but for the health of all living things - for generations to come.

What if that feeling is the voice of your own intuition, guiding you toward the very thing you've been seeking all along?

The vast majority of us have been raised within a system of consciousness intentionally designed to keep us distracted, disconnected, and disempowered.

From the time we enter the world, we are told what to do, who to be, and how to think. 

We are funneled into boxes, crammed into buildings, and all but stripped of our wild, sacred nature.

We are taught to question our intuitive impulses and dull our creative expression. To sacrifice our power as Creator Beings, before we've even realized just how powerful we truly are. 

But deep down, all this time, that little voice has been there...

...lovingly awaiting the day you'll feel the tingle of wisdom nestled in your bones and encoded throughout your very DNA. 

And maybe in a dream, or a perfectly timed conversation with a friend, or carried in on the breeze, or maybe even right now...something will spark in you like an old, familiar memory. Something you just can't shake. 

The medicine and magick of your ancestors will awaken, and you'll re-member the Truth: You are a divine expression of cosmic intelligence - infinite, expansive, and vastly more powerful than you've been led to believe.


You are a soul embodying the human experience, and your intuition, that voice, is the compass pointing you home.

IMG_2683.jpg

Are you ready to honor the call, and see where it takes you? To reconnect to your Truth? To believe in magick and mystery again? 

All the great mystics, prophets, and alchemists throughout time seem to arrive at the same bead of wisdom - that which you seek is already alive within you.

And further, when you expand your definition of what or who you believe YOU are...the whole foundation of your reality expands with you.

You see how intricately connected you are to *literally* every little thing that ever was, and ever will be. You find your place in the grand vision of this experience. You feel the support you've always had, but perhaps just didn't realize was there. 

THIS ISN'T A JOURNEY TO FIND SOMETHING LOST.

It's an invitation to awaken something you couldn't lose if you tried.

    An opportunity to lean into a feeling - and trust.    

AND IT ALL STARTS WITH HOW YOU CHOOSE TO SHOW UP, RIGHT NOW.

In the little moments. In the practices and beliefs you choose to nurture every day.

When we strengthen connection to ourselves, to the Earth, to the other beings we share this world with, we tap into a profound source of medicine and power. We attune ourselves to the natural, harmonious resonance of the Divine. Not just a part of nature...but as nature, expressing and experiencing herself. This is what it means to be a Creator Being. And this is also the reality most people choose to deny themselves. 

What would happen if you allowed yourself to say "YES" to a life of connection?

TO FOLLOW THE PATH OF YOUR INTUITION, INTO THE UNKNOWN?

You play again. Press your feet, and hands, and belly to the Earth. Feel the pulse of the wild within you. Release the fear and follow your curious heart toward the path of your highest excitement!

You heal. Not just for you - but for the Earth. For your loved ones, your neighbors, your community. For generations throughout your lineage, both before and behind you. 

You unlock your super powers. Re-member how to talk to trees and animals, travel through time and space, and reclaim the seat of power and purpose in your life. 

And perhaps most importantly, you realize you're not alone. You never have been. And that your medicine, your story, your truth, your journey...is the stuff this world needs a little more of.  

White Plants

THERE'S A REASON THIS IS THE PATH WE'VE DEVOTED OURSELVES TO, AND WHY WE CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE IT WITH YOU.

TIME AND TIME AGAIN, WE'VE WITNESSED PEOPLE OF ALL WALKS AND CREEDS COMPLETELY TRANSFORM THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEMSELVES AND THE WORLD THROUGH THIS WORK. 

NOT BY SUDDENLY FREE FALLING INTO A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE,

BUT BY INTRODUCING MORE NOURISHMENT, PRESENCE, AND JOY INTO THE LITTLE MOMENTS WE SO OFTEN OVERLOOK.  

This work is consciously crafted to empower you with the tools to wield your gifts, reconnect to your wild nature, and embrace the journey of your life unfolding. 

It's always a good time to tune in, and begin again. Ready to answer the call?

Your guided introduction to Shamanic Wisdom and Earth Spirit Medicine,

lovingly distilled into an expansive 9 week program rooted in experiential knowledge, heart-centered healing, and personal empowerment. 

WELCOME TO

nourishing our roots

NOURISHING OUR ROOTS

gather with us in circle

We've spent the last several years refining over a decade worth of training in Earth-based spirituality and traditional healing to bring you this: a non-dogmatic, non-religious, come-as-you-are offering where we assist one another in holding Sacred Space for Inner Healing as we re-member and honor the ancient traditions used and passed on by our Elders. 


In other words, we're circling back, tuning in, and nourishing our roots. 

In this hands-on course, you will intimately explore and experience universal shamanic principles which support and encourage balanced living in a modern age, as we share practical tools and systems to help you re-connect to your authentic self, uncover hidden blockages, deepen relationship with the Earth and natural elements around you, and create empowering habits to support your highest growth and wellbeing.

These are the nourishing practices which have forever changed the course of our lives...

and we're so grateful to now be able to share them with you.

LET'S DROP IN A LITTLE DEEPER

WHAT'S INSIDE THE OFFERING

TELL ME MORE
Nico Zuluaga

WEEK 01

Setting Sacred Space

Not every space we walk into feels the same...
And after years of doing this work, trust us when we say - set and setting are HUGE.

The spaces we navigate can carry the energetic imprints of their experiences, just like people do - and your environment can influence everything from how you feel day to day, to the overall quality of magick and life you create for yourself.


While you can't curate every environment you come into, we'll teach you everything you need to know about setting and maintaining a space which feels uniquely sacred, special, and safe to YOU, so you can continue to align your outer reality with your inner magick - no matter where you are. 

WEEK 02

Becoming Witness

Now that you're comfortable and we've dropped into the work, we'll take a deeper look at YOU and how you currently perceive, experience, and create your reality. 

With the element of fire, we honor our inner flame, our enlightened connection to Spirit, and the energy of illumination.   

We'll show you how to identify the current lens of your perspective and take the seat of witness, giving you the higher vantage point you need to detach from the day-to-day drama and more mundane functions of life, release the burdens that were never yours to carry, receive insight and inspiration, and reconnect to your spiritual self.

WEEK 03

Conscious Creation + Manifestation

When you're connected to Spirit and able to own your role as Creator Being, anything is possible. 

With the element of water, we honor our emotions, our strength and innate wisdom, and our highly sensitive (and powerful!) nature as human beings.


This week, we drop into the practice of deep listening, emotional intelligence and connection, conscious language, embodiment, and sacred movement - all as different mediums to help us transmute toxic programming, reclaim our creative power, and embrace life as ritual. 

 

WEEK 04

Grounded Connection

We're not just communing with the natural world - we're communicating with it, too. 

There's no fancy way to put this, but uh...we talk to plants, and animals, and rocks, and rain, and the sacred tools we use, and pretty much everything around us.
And get this - they
all talk back!  

If you knew you could receive wisdom, and messages, and deeply profound insight from the "non-verbal" allies and beings around you, bringing a little more magick and wonder down to the Earthly plane, wouldn't you jump at the opportunity??

Suddenly the trees you pass on your walk to the park, the butterfly that hovers in front of your face for a full, deep breath, the bird that keeps showing up outside your house...all have significant purpose in your life. We share the key practices we use to help you learn how to extend your circle of support and develop your intuitive ability to connect beyond your human relations.

WEEK 05

Navigating Realities

As you continue along your journey and broaden your circle of power and support, it's important to understand the nature of the different realities available and accessible to us - and how to navigate them. 

This week, we acknowledge our ancestral relations and the element of air as we explore the different levels of our dimensional experience to receive higher guidance and information.

We teach you how to prepare for a Shamanic Drum Journey and highlight basic energetic protection and safety techniques to rely on during meditation and spiritual work, helping you stay tied to your physical body as you travel through time and space.

WEEK 06

Divine Masculine + Consecration

Wisdom doesn't mean much if you never do anything with it.

This week, we drop into the medicine of the Divine 
Masculine principle, sharing techniques to help us put our insight into actionable practice and truly embody the energy of empowered Creator in our daily lives.

You'll learn the ritual of consecration and the Shamanic Breath of Life, experiencing firsthand how these simple practices may serve to
keep you safe in the Spirit Realm, deepen your connection to the sacred tools you care for, and help you bring a new sense of light, power, memory, and magick to objects which might otherwise be viewed as "ordinary."

WEEK 07

Divine Feminine + Intuition

The Great Mother. The Goddess. Our Earth. The Divine Feminine principle behind all that is.

This week, we honor her - the source of our deepest nourishment, support, and vitality. 

We will explore the sensual, nurturing, magnetic embodiment of our feminine nature, raising our frequency, relishing in the gift of our Intuition, and allowing ourselves to drop into the energy of attraction, abundance, and joy, in service to the greater good of all. 

WEEK 08

Self Care + Shifting Consciousness

So many of us rarely create the time to give ourselves the loving praise, compassion, and encouragement we need and deserve in order to truly thrive. To rise each morning in love with our lives, because we've allowed ourselves to fall in love with the person we see in the mirror.  

Your practice, your experience, your happiness, your world - all start and end with you, the Creator. 

YOU, standing at the center, the space where all directions meet, are worthy, and capable, and beautiful in every possible way. This week, we explore different methods of shifting consciousness from a space of expansive Self Love. And trust us - the kind of magick created from this space is the kind this world needs more of.

WEEK 09

Shamanic Journeying

All your hard work has paid off, but the journey isn't over. In fact, it's only just beginning! 

This week, you'll put all the experiential wisdom you've awakened into practice as you ride the wave of the drum and are initiated into a guided Shamanic Journey to the Realm of Spirit, receiving personal insight to illuminate your path ahead. 

Journeying, the ability to confidently navigate other dimensions of our experience in order to gain higher guidance directly from Source - this is the empowering foundation of our work, and one of the most valuable tools you'll gain throughout this course, allowing you to reclaim your power, exercise your own innate ability to connect to the wisdom around and within you, and step into a life of alignment and purpose. 

I'M CURIOUS...

What exactly is Shamanism?

The word "Shamanism" has come to be associated with many things, especially in recent years, as we see more and more practitioners and spiritualists embrace alternative lifestyles and return to natural and ancestral methods of healing.

Because of this, there is no single agreed upon definition, but in our understanding, we use it simply to describe an Earth-based system of knowledge which serves to empower individuals to deepen relationship with the unseen world so they may receive the insight to heal themselves and their communities. 

While we have formal and experiential training in a variety of different indigenous and Earth-based practices and belief systems, as well as our collective lived experiences to reference, we aim not to share the rituals or cultural practices of any one specific nation or group of people, but rather to draw upon the common thread of Truth woven between the traditions of our Elders:

We are all a vital part of an interconnected, interdependent whole,

our each and every action rippling out to affect all else.

This offering isn't here so you may claim the title of "shaman," but so you may realize your impact and connection within this web of natural intelligence, take accountability for your life, reclaim your personal power, and align your choices with the beliefs and practices which serve your Highest Purpose.

We pray through this strengthened connection, you may ignite and return to a sense of childlike joy and innocence, and create the Life you've always dreamt of with the support and strong foundation of community.

Nourishing Our Roots is a simple, intuitive program designed to bring you closer to the core of who you truly are through connecting to the vitalizing wisdom of the natural world.

When you join us in circle, you'll get access to our expansive 9 week deep-dive into the realm of Shamanic Wisdom and Earth Spirit Medicine, packed with experiential trainings, resources, and step-by-step guidance to help you nurture your connection, strengthen your intuition, and ignite your purpose.

And since life is better with friends, throughout our journey together, you'll also have the loving support of an ever-growing and oh-so-beautiful community of like-minded magick makers to share your experiences and rise with!

NOURISHING OUR ROOTS IS FOR YOU IF YOU'D GIVE AN "MMMHM!" AND RAISE YOUR HAND TO ANY OF THESE:

You're the dreamer. The visionary. The artist. Always tinkering with new ideas, and ready to inspire and be inspired! Totally enamored with the mystery of the seen and unseen worlds, you are the bridge between form and ether, drawing your visions down to Earth. You're here to dance with the shadows and share your light with the world. 

You're the healer. The nurturer. Often sought for advice, or a shoulder for others to cry on. You're feeling your way through this experience, and you FEEL. IT. ALL. You move from the heart and are here to make deeeep connections and truly impact peoples' lives for the better. 

You're the change maker. The warrior. The activist. You're here to create peace on Earth, but you're no stranger to sacred rage. Justice is your battle cry, and you're ready to fight for the things you believe in. You're here to do BIG work, and you know it all starts from within. 

You're the Earth lover. The tree hugging, animal whispering, shoes off, "get me outside so I can be with the MOTHER" kinda lover. You're an old soul, deeply connected to the magick of the Earth and Stars. You're here in gratitude to Gaia for all that is, and you wanna share that love with others...or maybe just get lost in the mountains somewhere. 

You're the scholar. The wisdom keeper. The storyteller. You've read all the books and could totally geek out on consciousness-talk and spirituality allll daaaay! You're here to honor, and explore, and preserve the wisdom of our elders any way you can. 


You're the newb. No, like...seriously. You have no idea what on Earth you're doing here...on Earth. The world is a little crazy right now and everything you thought you knew is completely turned on its head. You could really use a little direction from whomever's out there writing the script for all this.

MOM + POP DUO DEVOTED TO ILLUMINATING THE MAGICK IN THE MUNDANE

WE'RE NATA + nico

We're a couple of down-to-Earth #motherlovers here to make connection cool again. 

We specialize in herbal and shamanic artistry,
and have spent more than a decade bringing the magick of intuitive healing, holistic wellness, and spiritual empowerment to the local and global communities we serve.

In a society which has all but starved us of our innate ability to think for and heal ourselves, honoring and upholding the medicine of the natural world through Earth-conscious tradition and ritual is exactly the kind of revolutionary work we're here 
for.

It's safe to say, we've found our calling - and we're here to help you answer yours. 

The truth is, you are a divine expression of magick in motion — and you're here to do big, miraculous, deeply fulfilling things with your life.

Whether you're devoted to making an impact, or you're just now beginning your own spiritual journey, trust us when we say - nourishing the nature of your human experience and deepening connection to the Earth and the beautiful spark of life which brings us all together is an ever-blossoming investment you will always be grateful for.

 

This is the inner work we're all called to do.
