THE INVITATION

Wake up to Wonder

Has your spirituality felt dormant for a while, or disconnected from who you truly are? Would you like to integrate your spirituality in all aspects of your life? Then you will be in good company of other committed explorers, who think outside the box, and are looking for a more animated, embodied and nature-based spirituality.

This is an experiential 10-month online journey to nourish your conscious relationship with the mystery of life and wake up to wonder. You will learn soulful techniques that help you thrive in a complex world, and place your soul in the driver's seat on the road through your life.


















THIS COURSE IS FOR YOU

If you ...

  • want to step more firmly into your wild, witchy, pagan, healer essence

  • like to create a stronger connection to nature and the land you live

  • are interested in reflection, movement and other creative techniques to inspire and embody your spirituality

  • feel rejected by mainstream religion because of your life style choices

  • want to reconnect with meaning and address existential questions in a contemporary framework

  • long for an open and non-dogmatic spiritual practice

  • want to include spirituality in all areas of your life (yes also boring weekdays, and also sex!)

  • like to craft a down-to-earth spirituality that makes sense for YOU in the concrete reality of your life

  • yearn to integrate your soul into your personal growth journey but don't know how

  • like to connect with other people who are equally interested in living their spirituality

  • are ready to take your soul seriously - with a smile!

  • are able to commit to attending at least 7 of the meetings live. I know life happens, but if you know in advance that Wednesdays don't work for you, or you'll be away from internet for more than 3 months, then perhaps this is not the time.

COURSE DESIGN

Monthly Structure

The monthly meetings form the 'heart' of the journey. Each module has a different topic, that you will explore in various ways:

  1. Before each meeting you'll receive a video that contains the theoretical introduction and outline of the topic. You'll also get workbooks with journal prompts for your own inquiries, practices to try in your own time, and reading material to deepen your understanding of the topic.

  2. During each meeting there will be time for questions, sharing about your experiences so far, and diving into further practice together. You will encounter guided visualisation, embodied inquiry, and exercises to expand your sensorial awareness and consciousness. An important part of the course is the connection you make with other participants in smaller breakout groups and in the full circle of participants.

  3. In between meetings you can deepen your reflections and practice, stay in touch via the safe online space, and attend the Thrive Circles for further connection, Q&A and sharing. These are open to everyone who has worked with me in the past, and this is of course totally optional.


















WHAT YOU GET

Included in your Course

THEMATIC INTRODUCTION

10x VIDEOS

Before each module you receive a 20-30 minute presentation to watch before we meet. Eline introduces the topic of the month, and builds a clear foundation to increase your understanding about the theme. This includes helpful definitions, distinctions between concepts, and clarifying visuals.

PRACTICE INSPIRATION

10x RESOURCE SETS

Every module comes with a set of workbooks, practice recipes and additional reading to explore the topic of the month in-depth. These will be released a week before we meet, so you can look at the preparation video, and start playing with your materials before we meet.

(check below to see the content of these resources)

CONNECTION & GROUP EXPLORATION

10x MEETINGS

In the online monthly meetings we explore a specific practice together. You can ask questions about the materials, and Eline leads a practical experience. This can be a guided visualisation, an embodied inquiry, or a shamanic technique. You can share your experience in small breakout groups, and have group time to learn from each other. These meetings will be recorded in case you can't make the live meeting.

DISCOUNT MENTORING

3 PRIVATE SESSIONS WITH ELINE

When you start or deepen your relationship with spirituality, you might encounter themes in your life around health and healing, identity, life purpose, self-love, relationships, sexuality or anything else. 

In 3 private mentoring sessions, you can explore these themes in a safe and encouraging way. As part of this package you receive a discount on my normal mentoring rate. You choose when you want to meet. 

(If you like to join the course but want to opt out from 1:1 time, let me know and I'll send you a different payment link)

PRIVATE GROUP

SAFE ONLINE SPACE

You have automatic access to the Wild Soul Tribe, a warm and welcoming group of international participants. This  private forum is similar to Facebook but without the distractions and sometimes negative experience there. It really makes a difference to know you are connected and can reach out to others a similar journey.

CONTENT

A closer look at the Modules

Here is a detailed overview of what we will cover each month. You can use the plus signs to discover the content.

Module 1: Existential Questions & Life Orientation

Module 1 explores existential questions and meaning. These questions include: who are we, where do we come from, why are we here, how can we face life’s inevitable challenges, and what happens when we die? These questions are timeless. Traditionally, people turned to religion to look for answers. When organised religions no longer address such questions in a way that resonates with people, we need to look elsewhere for meaning.

We will cover:
  • The difference between religion and spirituality
  • Art of Living as a philosophy to create a meaningful life
  • The value of developing your own spirituality
  • What it means to bring spirituality into the body
  • Movement Inquiry: Meet your higher self as guide for the journey
Module 1 materials include:
  • Reflection: Intention & Planting Growth Seeds 
  • Reflection: Your Spiritual Experience So Far 
  • Reflection: Explore Your Values
  • Reflection: Investigate Your Habits
  • Practice: Design Your Spiritual Practice

Module 2: Body & Embodiment

Many of us have a challenging relationship with being in a body. Module 2 explores the body and embodiment from different angles. We shift our awareness to experiencing the body from within, as a starting point for all our experiences in life. We experience consciousness, joy and ecstasy and insights in the body. Simultaneously it is the place where we integrate our experiences, insights and healing.

We will cover:
  • Undivided Body-Mind
  • Multi-layered Body
  • 4 Expressions of Embodiment: Awareness, Alignment, Presence and Interconnection
  • Benefits of Embodiment
  • How to Calm an Overactive Mind
  • Movement Inquiry: Ask your Body, Heart, Mind and Spirit a question
Module 2 materials include:
  • Reflection: Explore the 4 Expressions of Embodiment in your life
  • Reflection: Body~Heart~Mind~Spirit Inquiry
  • Practice: Track your Embodiment
  • Reading: Clearing the way towards soulful scholarship (2018)

Module 3: Exploring through Movement

Western education emphasises our cognition as the only useful route to knowledge. However, even the brain draws its information from the body. Module 3 highlights movement as a modality for learning and exploring the world as we have done since the womb.

We will cover:
  • Expanding cognition beyond mental intelligence
  • Intuition & ways to strengthen intuition
  • Movement as a way of knowing to develop multi-level literacy
  • Improvisation as a technique
  • Relationship to the unknown
  • Movement Inquiry: Exploring your zone of comfort
Module 3 materials include:
  • Reflection:Your Relationship to the Unknown
  • Practice: Moving with lines and angles
  • Practice: Blindfold exploration
  • Reading: Calibrating the Body: Embodied Research Strategies for Attuning to Subtle Information (2018)

Module 4: Dance as Spiritual Practice

People have been dancing with the mystery since the beginning of time. You don't need to be a trained dancer, to reconnect with rhythm, meaning and your spirit guides. Reconnect with  your dancer's DNA deep in your being, for inspiration, reconnection and celebration of the life force.

We will cover:
  • The role of dance in evolution
  • Why we dance + dance definitions 
  • Dance is relational and active 
  • Dance as a way of paying attention
  • 5 aspects of a danced spirituality
  • Movement Inquiry: Dance with an empowering archetype of your choice

  • Reading: Cultural Expressions of Sacred and Conscious Dance
  • Reading: Dance as a moving spirituality. A case study of Movement Medicine (2014) 
  • Watching: Kalahari Shaking Medicine (2017)

Module 5: Meeting Nature as a Teacher

In this module we look at nature as a source of inspiration, healing and guidance, and our ongoing connection to this tremendous healer and teacher. Your breath is one direct expression of your relationship with plants and trees in the cycle of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. We are always in connection, and we simply lift the veils to remember this.

We will cover:
  • Body-environment as another continuum
  • Different ‘meanings’ of nature
  • Separation/disconnection/nature deficit disorder
  • 3 reasons to spend more time in nature (okay 4!)
  • Immersive practices
  • Listening to the melodies of the land
  • Mimicking, mimetic empathy, and shapeshifting
  • Movement Inquiry: Dance with a Tree
Module 5 materials include:
  • Reflection: Are you a Natural Creature?
  • Practice: Medicine Walk to Ask Nature a Question
  • Practice: Find your Power Place
  • Reading: Four body- and nature-based practices to move your life-force (2020)

Module 6: Expanded Consciousness, Trance and Ecstasy

Without going woo-woo, all of us have the innate ability to expand (and contract) our consciousness. This is a mysterious territory, and we will approach it experientially. It is like a muscle you train, so you can call on different faculties than your cognition, when a situation calls for it.

We will cover:
  • Consciousness Beyond the Skin (animism)
  • Participation Consciousness
  • Information Fields
  • Changing the Frequency of your Consciousness
  • Shamanic Journey to meet the spirit of the stone
  • Difference between expanded consciousness, trance and embodied ecstasy

  • Reflection: How do you view Deity?
  • Reading: Expanded Consciousness, Trance and Embodied Ecstasy and Collective Pathways
  • Reading: A Personal Relationship with the Mysteries. (Re)discovering the Enchanted Garden Through Movement and the Body (2017) 

Module 7: Encountering the Spirits

In the previous module we learned about animistic views on the world around us, and trained our consciousness to expand. In this module we take a journey to the spirit world to ask for help, in the way I've been trained to by Jonathan Horwitz from the Scandinavian Center for Shamanic Studies.

We will cover:
  • What are spirits?
  • Power as shamanic currency
  • Power animals and shapeshifting
  • Practice: Journey to meet your power animal
Module 7 materials include:
  • Reflection: Exploring Power and Empowerment
  • Practice Guide: How to make a shamanic journey
  • Practice: Shamanic Drumming Track
  • Practice: Dancing with/as your power animal
  • Reading: Dancing with the Spirits. Being grounded and being able to fly are not mutually exclusive (2020) 

Module 8: Performing Ceremony

In this module we look at the use, meaning and anatomy of ceremony, and how we can bring ceremony into our life in an authentic way.

We will cover:
  • The difference between Ritual and Ceremony
  • Types of Sacred Space
  • Stages of Ceremony
  • Meaning and Efficacy of Contemporary Reinventions
  • Practice: Start Ceremonial Design
Module 8 materials include:
  • Practice: Creating Altars and Setting up Sacred Space
  • Practice: Wild Guide to Design your own Ceremony
  • Reading: Eline's Ritual and Ceremonial experiences in the dedicated Blog Collection
  • Reading: Meaning and Efficacy of Contemporary Reinventions
  • Reading: Scepticism, Resistance & Excuses
  • Watching: My Ceremonial Healing Dance East Wind: The Story of my Ectopic Pregnancy

Module 9: Healing and Transformation

In my work as medical anthropologist, I've come across many 'explanatory models' about illness and dis-ease, how it arises, can be healed or avoided. We consider a wider view than the biomechanic approach of the body as machine, and instead include concepts such as 'energy body', and soul health.

We will cover:
  • Views on health as a process
  • My 6 orientations for dynamic wellbeing
  • 4 archetypes to support your health journey
  • 2 causes of illness in the shamanic paradigm: soul loss and intrusion
  • Soul loss: different forms, reasons, symptoms
  • Practices for soul recovery and retrieval

Module 9 materials include:
  • Reflection: Where is the Rest of Me?
  • Practice: Release a story, pattern or experience and call your essence back
  • Practice: Egg and Herb Healing to Extract Intrusions
  • Reading: Towards Dynamic Wellbeing (6 orientations) 
  • Reading: Soul loss and retrieval. Restoring wholeness through dance (2020)

Module 10: Towards New Narratives

Integration and completion is a very important part of each journey. To distill the essence of your experience, we are going to take a look at the power of stories, and especially the Journey motive. This module is a chance to change YOUR story about spirituality, with everything that you've learned and experienced this year, and step into the next chapter of your life with confidence!

We will cover:
  • Journey Motive
  • Ingredients for Sustainable Narratives in 
  • Additional Ingredients for holistic stories

  • The role of community and fellow travellers
  • Sacred Sexuality

CLIENT LOVE

What people experienced last year...

17 people participated last year, and this is some of what they say...

Ann Beate

Thanks to this course I have started to recognize my own shamanic roots, through personal experiences grounded in home environment. And what a gift it has been to have the attention and support from a group for ten months. 

I had a clear personal goal: to establish ritual in my home environment. To get there I needed help, preferably a circle. 

The framework Eline offered guided me through some important groundwork that I wouldn’t have found my way into on my own. Thank you for the company, all of you! 

And thank you Eline for everything you have shared, and for your guidance!

Enkidu

Each meeting was like an adventure to learn and deal with what is behind the scenes. I became more comfortable in my body!

The contributions of wild soul tribe members and what we share in Community, really gave me the feeling that I reconnected with soul tribe and that I had the opportunity to know them more and work with them in this dimension!

The rituals and ceremonies had a deep impact on my psyche and reverberated almost daily (depending on the weather).

In general, my sense of sacredness increased in the surround me and within me and within all being.

Valerie

Thank you for being the guardian of our true nature. Without you I would not have taken the clear step to make spirituality my daily practice, starting with the dance in nature challenge last year. With the support of the wild soul tribe you call us to stay tuned and in loving nature so as your guardian doll stays in her truth. 
 
From the bottom of my heart, thank you ❤️ 
 
love,

Holly

Thank you so much everyone for making yesterday's class even more special. I was battling with myself and anxiety all day - my mind tried to talk me out of participating live!! 🤪 which felt crazy from the moment we were all together and settling into our bodies and shared sacred space. I'm just so glad I came. And I feel so lucky to be a part of to this transformative space! I finished the class on such a high and am so grateful for the way of the wild soul. Thank you Eline!! Also the breakout groups are very intimate and I find it easier to connect and share this way - sending love to all XX

Francesca

I feel that all the courage I unveiled within myself in the past months, started from the practice of sitting in nature that you suggested long ago. 

If I could sit with all the scary bugs, nothing could frighten me anymore. I am enjoying sitting in parks now (with rain trousers and all the due measures). And that had a massive impact on my professional development. 

Thank you as usual for your deep inspiration!
