We all enter this lifetime with unique agreements to meet, fulfill, and at times, to break. “Soul Contracts” are multi-faceted ~ in this workshop, we will study the contracts that govern our relationship to self and others. This group exploration is designed to help us to know our selves as souls, personality and purpose, as well as to learn about cutting cords from various entanglements. Omi will guide us to collectively uncover and decode the deep mysteries of our soul contracts.

ACCESSIBILITY—

We are a Black queer mother, family and community run medicine project. It is always fundamental and imperative to Temple of Earth Apothecary that community healing experiences are accessible to those who need them regardless of financial access. We find it entirely integral that Black/Indigenous people of color get to share medicine in this space, and so we offer 'Pay What You Can' tickets to our Black/Indigenous relatives, at times naming specific sub-groups (see above). We are much owed by way of wealth stolen from us and our ancestors. We view the return of our lands, wealth, health and ways as a matter of justice and one of inevitability, as we intend to help facilitate it. Those who are called to return our money back to us can use the ‘Pay It Forward’ option to tithe in and support the space, our practitioners, facilitators and shop keepers.⛲️

For reciprocity and sustainability we will often ask for a minimum donation. If our minimum ask is not currently within reach, we understand ~ please write to us at info@templeofearthapothecary.

A Temple Freedom School workshop, presented by Shaun Isaac Warren~ Chief Spell Breaker, Mindset & Manifestation Coach, Sound Healing Artist

about this class

Whether you believe it or not, words are spells… otherwise known as incantations, or a series of words used to conjure something. Within every word is an energetic interior or profound etymology that is intricately and precisely composed. When your mental composition is working in alignment with your soul's guidance, the words that shape your thought and speech shape your destiny accordingly. When your inner thought foundation is working against you, popular healing technologies, such as affirmations and visualizations, become counterintuitive and ineffective. Spell Breakers helps expose you to the dialogue of your subconscious. This divine speech workshop will offer guidance for you to harness the energy of words and the potency of the tongue to consciously and powerfully craft your world from the inside out. And so it is. 𓇼

This class will be held at Temple of Earth Apothecary.
