For Community Builders, Artists,
and Deep Ecology Advocates:

cultivating your community and place to evolve towards
the eco-spiritual well being you know is your next step –
Balance and Wholeness

The New “Eco Movement” -

Interconnection of all. Co-creativity. World as Collective Field. This synergy awakens the powers of place as Earth wisdom to restore balance and wholeness.

Severed relationships between peoples and places as displacement from sacred wholeness;  a land’s intelligence as a natural resource for implacement—through story and ceremony. Instead of neglecting or abandoning these places, you can re-story them to align with a vibrant, interactive Field.

Finding skills to bring your community or land into stronger alignment with your best intentions. Simple but powerful teachings and practices to access the sacred places that are an awaiting resource.

What if we made more places of power for the people and the planet?

  • People of all socio-economic status can have access to sacred places and earth’s regenerative force
  • People can value their communities and neighborhoods as places to honor, a place to be proud of, and they would actively take care of them
  • Places are clear of human “emotional” litter, tragic events or neglect, and the land’s agency takes the lead
  • Places are connected to each other for powerful sustainability and re-aligned trajectory for planetary recuperation

Join this social movement–
create vibrant, earth-friendly culture through
Ceremonial Placemaking

♦peaceful activism for conscious community changing

Speaking, Design, and Process Workshops

Through experiential learning, storytelling, cross-cultural myth, crafting ceremony and sacred objects, you  learn land-based placemaking skills to help your group transform the energy of stasis or disconnection into balance and wholeness. Here are some examples:

  1. Listen to the wisdom of the land
  2. Harmonize the need of a community with the totemic song of the land
  3. Heal local places of natural disaster and environmental misuse
  4. Create more personal and communal power places to ignite earth’s regenerative forces for local and planetary recuperation

  • Testimonial

    "I requested Maila to help me craft the dedication for the labyrinth I have built on my land. I am a new arrival in the desert, and wanted to connect with the land rather than simply impose a structure on it. She helped me discern what the land was both asking for and offering, and helped me to design a powerful ritual to deeply honor the land, acknowledge its spiritual history, and invite the embodied energies that are present. Maila's support gave me confidence in listening to my own intuitions and guided my attention toward the deeper voices and stories rooted in this place. I now feel strongly awakened to this special place and the many ways it speaks." --Cheryl De Ciantis, Tuscon, AZ
