Are you ready to: • Learn the fundamentals of shamanic practice and empowerment ? • Create your own Mesa, a sacred altar ground and shamanic tool for engaging enlightened beings and elemental energies ? • Discover the Three Worlds, Five Directions, and a vibrant lineage of ceremony, healing, transformation , and heart-centered community? Join us for a half-day exploration of the expansive heart of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition™. Originated by don Oscar Miro-Quesada, respected Kamasqa curandero and Altomisayoq adept, it is a tradition rooted in Peruvian curanderismo which emphasizes personal and planetary healing. You will have an opportunity to create your own Basic Mesa. A Mesa is a type of altar and sacred medicine ground. The Mesa you will learn about is a synthesis of Peruvian shamanic coastal traditions combined with southeastern Andean Paqokuna practices. It is a powerful resource for supporting you in your journey of spiritual development. What is shamanism? Shamanism, also known as curanderismo in this tradition, is not a religion: it is a spiritual practice grounded in a reverent awareness that the world is animated, conscious, and energetically interdependent. This workshop will offer some foundational teachings in Andean and universal approaches to shamanism. Find out more about the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition at the Heart of the Healer Shamanic Mystery School. Investment This workshop is offered on a sliding scale, from $40-80.

What to bring Upon registration, you will be sent a list of items for creating your own Pachakuti Mesa. The workshop will include some standing and some laying down for a shamanic journey. Please bring anything else you may need to be comfortable, such as extra pillows, a yoga mat or blanket, or a folding chair that is closer to the ground (and closer to your mesa!)

About Perre Bensusan: “It’s Like The Guitar Has Been Given Free Reign To Play Itself!” Winner of the Independent Music Award for his triple live album "Encore", voted Best World Music Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine reader’s Poll, winner of the Rose d’Or at the Montreux Festival for his debut album, Pierre is recognized as one of the greatest guitar players of the 21st century. If World Music means the fusion of traditional, contemporary, jazz, classical and pop music, then Bensusan is one of the most eloquent World Music musicians of our time. A pianist in his beginnings then self-taught on the guitar, the originality of his style makes him one of today’s greatest guitarists and composers for the instrument. Also called “The Prince of DADGAD”, the Rose d'Or of the Montreux Festival, elected Best Guitarist of World Music by the readers of Guitar Player Magazine! His triple album "Encore" won the Grand Prix of the Independent Music Awards in the category Best Live Album... Since his first performances in 1974 in France, the guitarist has sold half a million albums and given thousands of concerts around the globe, both solo and through numerous collaborations. Pierre Bensusan is an adventurer of unusual lands. His almost “sacred” music is an intimate and orchestral hymn, a solo crossing on a multi-shell Lowden guitar subjected to the natural elements with sound molecules and finger pulp on an ebony fingerboard for open tuning - an unique and transparent technique, under the fingers of an adventurous pilgrim. “Listening to Pierre's music is rejuvenating. Beside his extraordinary touch and tone, the notes and melody appeal directly to the tender side of our human nature” Steve Vai “This is beautiful... Pierre is one of the GREATS!!!” Tommy Emmanuel Cgp. With only his steel-string-acoustic guitar – and sometimes his rich, affecting voice – Mr Bensusan can disassemble your heart and hand it back to you restored and renewed. As he did to mine tonight. A true giant.” James Volpe Rotondi (former senior editor at Guitar Player Magazine) This event is co-presented by Salish Sea Cultural Society.
