REDISCOVER YOUR NATURAL ABILITY
In these day-long workshops we see nature as animate, we experience ourselves as part of it & we practice an empowered mutually healing relationship with it. Join us in the beautiful alpine meadows and river valleys of northern New Mexico for a day of presence, imagination, and connection.
WHAT TO EXPECT
EMBODIMENT
Enjoy exercises designed to awaken your senses and absorb the exquisite beauty of northern New Mexico— flood your body with oxytocin and open your heart to connect with the web of life.
From sparkling streams to rustling aspen leaves, experience the positive feedback loop of open-hearted awareness and nervous system regulation in nature.
IMAGINATION
Learn simple psychologically sound techniques to engage your imagination as the medium of communication between you and nature. As you relax under the trees, you will be guided through visualizations to build your confidence and open a direct line of communication between you and the land you love.
CONNECTION
Feel the co-regulation of the group amplify as we connect to nature and share our experiences in an intimate group. The insights and experiences we share reveal our common ground— a desire to connect and capacity to heal.
Each Gaialoguing© workshop is tailored to fit the needs of a specific time, place, and circle of participants. This program began as a co-creation with the natural world and this mission is the foundation for our gatherings.
LOCATIONS
LUMOS CENTER — TAOS, NM
10AM-3PM
Our day begins at the Lumos Center, a sanctuary of stillness overlooking the high desert and snowcapped peaks of Taos, NM. After a morning of meditation, Intuitive Presence work, and reflection, we dive into the Gaialoguing© curriculum outdoors in the lush cottonwood groves on the banks of the Rio Pueblo de Taos at Greyhound Ranch.
LUNA RANCH — CHACON, NM
11AM-4PM
Our day begins at 11am as our intimate group of participants arrives at Luna Ranch, a private property near Chacon, NM. We spend the next five hours immersed in peaceful woods and inspirationally beautiful alpine meadows, embodying the principles of Gaialoguing© — learning to connect with Self & Earth.
Workshops at Luna Ranch take place in a remote, high altitude wilderness. It sits at 10 to 11 thousand feet above sea-level and is more than an hour’s drive from the nearest hospital. If you are unsure about your ability to participate in a Gaialoguing© workshop comfortably, consult your doctor. Ask questions via the contact page.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Gaialoguing© is designed for individuals who desire a reciprocally healing relationship with nature. If you love being in nature and listening, Gaialoguing© is for you.
About Gaialoguing©
Gaialoguing© (Gaia + dialoguing) was born from Keziah’s personal practice of connecting with nature. Using the same process she teaches to students, Keziah co-creates Gaialoguing© programs with nature, incorporating its input into the topics explored in group discussions and guided visualizations. This process recognizes nature as a sentient and wise co-creator and promotes humility, respect, and empowerment. From this perspective, humans and Earth work together for mutual benefit and neither carries the burden of crisis (be it personal or climate) alone.
Keziah also utilizes her experience in relevant disciplines in Gaialoguing© workshops, include Jungian Active Imagination, Wilderness Ceremony Facilitation, Massage and Energy Work, Shamanic Journeying, and Somatic Trauma Resolution for the Female Nervous System.
