Alchemy of Fear

3 hour workshop on Friday, May 3rd at 12 pm PT / 3 pm ET

Minimum Donation: $15

Limited Spaces Available

Ceremony will take place via live video on Zoom, led by Kat Courtney

Fear is a goddamn force, and a profound teacher. A potent and accurate acronym for fear is this: Felt Experience Appearing Real. The thing is, fear isn’t telling the truth of what is real, but the imagined reality of what we are afraid is true. Fear cannot be stopped by mere thoughts. Instead, we use the power of alchemy. The body experiences fear and excitement as the same physiological response. So we aren’t aiming to be people who don’t feel fear (it has such valuable information, after all). We are learning to relate to fear in a new way; honoring the expressing, but not falling for the story.

Let’s come together as a tribe in a safe, vulnerable container and feel, process, share, befriend, and honor our beautiful, wise, yet painful elements of fear. Shamanic coach and death doula Kat Courtney will lead a community of open-hearted people across the globe in a virtual Alchemy of Fear Workshop. We will work with the element of Air to support the expansion and empowerment we need to be honest about our fears. We will compassionately bear witness to the courageous admissions from our fellow light warriors, reflecting back acceptance and understanding. And we will each stand in the light of truth to name, befriend, and integrate the incredible energy of our biggest fears.

The Ritual will include opportunities to speak, emote, write, and meditate on the intelligence and power of our personal and collective shadow. Kat will create a ritualistic container using ancient shamanic practices honoring these untamed emotions, creating safety for all who gather to vulnerably move through some of the stuck energies in our bodies and beings.

The cost of this workshop is literally ANYTHING you can afford. You can register below for as little as $5.00. If you don’t have that to give and still wish to attend, email us here - no one will be turned away.

Let’s bring love to the parts of ourselves that need it the most.
