I've seen you mention the natural burial site before - I have already told my kids and other half that I would like a woodland burial - but I am waiting to see what happens with Promessian, as an alternative. Great news about the Hazel Coppice - you definitely sound like you are in a much more forward thinking area than me!!
I am just logging on briefly tonight, as I want to chill out - have a weekend workshop with Glennie Kindred - whose work I think is amazing, and I am very much looking forward to meeting her & working with her.
for now - will be back on after the weekend to let you know how the workshop went.

How lucky are you. I love her books....and follow her Celtic Year as much as possible!!....such a gentle path...
Glennie Kindred is at our centre in September. I'm looking forward to that workshop.....please let me know what you think of her way of teachings.
Our area is..NOT....that forward thinking.......I've had to push really hard to get a base to start from......now I'm starting to network and changes then occur naturally.......
Hiya - had a fantastic weekend - it was dealing with her Alchemy Work - but still tied into the Celtic believes on the 5 elements. She is a lovely gentle woman as you say, and I treated myself to a couple of her artwork prints - they are lovely. I myself have been following her Celtic year through her Sacred Celebrations book and love the fact that there are simple things I can involve the kids in . . . . .
We spent the whole time with open discussions and then singing together as we whittled wooden wands. At the end we had a sort of dedication ceremony with much drumming and dancing - pure magic - or should I say Alchemy!!!
I can't wait until I get the chance to work with her again - an I'm sure I will..
Hiya Wispy......sounds like you had a wonderful time with Glennie Kindred....was it the workshop 'Drawing inspiration from trees' that you went to?.......because that is the one I am attending in September!!
We have been making wands and talking sticks.....plus various other items to put up for sale.......we have some beautifully naturally twisted wands and Stangs......How did your wands turn out?
