Ritual: Summer Purification Lodge

Feeling abundant means to feel the richness of life, to perceive the many opportunities that life constantly brings us and to touch a sense of gratitude. In this, we can recognise that everything has a cycle of life and death: things start and finish – and, we are part of this beautiful dance of nature.

On the other hand, we also live in a world where crisis and scarcity are around and presented daily in the media. We might perceive the pain and violence of Mother Earth and her living beings and it might be difficult to see the abundance there. How can we change this perspective from lacking to satisfaction? How can we see the richness of our lives? How can we touch the abundance of cycles that have a beginning, a maturity and then, an end. How can we create a world of abundance for us?

When we connect to this sense of inner abundance, life too begins “to gift us", to bring concrete manifestations of this flow of abundance in different aspects of our life. In this ritual of the purification lodge, we will celebrate together abundance in all its forms to dive deeper in ourselves and to enrich various facets of our lives with abundance.

The ritual of the purification lodge - often also called sweat lodge - is a shamanic medicine for purification. Every ritual holds the possibility to receive, to heal and to dive deeper into the core of our being. We celebrate this ritual to open our heart and our intuition to the fine, healing vibrations of the Great Mother and to connect with the power and wisdom of the Four Elements. Each time we renew an old bond that reminds us again and again that we are children of planet earth.

This ritual is:

• for everyone who feels the call to purify, cleanse and revitalise the four bodies (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).

• for whom feels the call to connect deeper with Nature and the ancient medicine of the Purification Lodge.

• for all who want to connect more with the feeling of abundance and feel the richness of life.

What we offer:

• Ritual of the purification lodge

• Shamanic dynamics

• Mantras and shamanic songs

• Preparation of the lodge

• Sacred fire

• Herbal bath

• Shamanic sharing circle

Join us for this joyful celebration. No experience of shamanism is needed.

Saturday 29th: 3pm to 11pm
Sunday 30th: 9.30am to 1pm

Contribution: 65 to 95 euros depending on your possibilities. The ritual is limited to 10 people to provide an intimate and individual experience.

This ritual will be in Italian and in English.

Shamanic Pilgrimage in Sardinia

Last summer when I was travelling through Sardinia from south to north, from Cagliari to Porto Torres, I expressed the desire to share this wonderful shamanic medicine of the pilgrimage that has completely transformed my life. And, it is now with great honor that I can finally offer the first of a series of shamanic pilgrimages of the central axis of the Camino of Sant James in Sardinia.

The first part, that goes from Cagliari to Laconi, includes 7 stages; we leave the urban space of Cagliari to walk towards the center of Sardinia. Guided by the spirits of Mother Nature, the path offers a sacred space of reflection and immersion in our inner landscape where we can touch the essence of our life, discover the various facets of our soul and immerse ourselves in the ancestrality of the island.

The path will be accompanied by daily shamanic dynamics that will make this walk different from all the others or from a traditional excursion. In fact, shamanic medicines will guide our steps and give direction to our inner research.

Program

The total route is about 135 km so we will walk an average of 20 km per day. The meeting will be in Cagliari at the church of Santu Jacu on Friday 11th May and next days, we will pass through these towns, where in some of them we will stop to sleep.

• Monserrato

• Settimo San Pietro

• Soleminis

• Dolianova

• Sant’Andrea Frius

• Silius

• Goni

• Siurgius Donigala

• Mandas

• Gergei

• Isili

• Nurallao

• Arrivo a Laconi

For whom

This pilgrimage is for anyone who loves to walk, who desires to see the beauty of Sardinia and to discover the mysteries of the island. More than anything, this pilgrimage is for whom is interested in a total immersive shamanic experience and has a desire to review and transform specific aspects of life and cultivate what matters to enter the next phase of life with a fresh spirit and clarity.

Although the pilgrimage will be done at a leisurely pace and following the pace of the group and the inspirations of the moment, a fair amount of physical wellbeing is required to be able to walk an average of 20 km per day.

Considering that is a spiritual journey of deep self-knowledge, this walk is not suitable for those who are only interested in walking as a sport activity or who have certain physical goals to achieve,

It is necessary to have a chat with Isha to find out whether the walk is suitable for your personal needs and whether you have an adequate fitness and health.

The Path of Saint James

The central axis of the walk is about 490 km. In this pilgrimage we will do the first of the 3 stages. The second stage will be done in the spring of 2025. The walk was created by the Camminando Association ( http://www.camminando.eu/wordpress/?lang=it) and was walked entirely by Isha in August 2023.

What is included

The package includes the walk through the town mentioned above and in addition: Isha’s guide, sharing circles, rituals and shamanic dynamics, 8 nights’ accommodations in suggested local facilities of various and types and quality (simple but all equipped with beds and showers), breakfast and a full meal per day.

Not included are entrances to archaeological sites or museums, packed lunch, and the return from Laconi to one’s destination on Sunday the 19th (this will in any case be arranged collectively).

Information

Contribution for guide and rituals: €300
Overnight stay, breakfast and a daily meal: 560 €
Any other expenses (including liability insurance): 80 €

Total contribution: 940 €

200 € to be paid by bank transfer to reserve a place. The remaining amount can be paid in instalments until the departure date.

It is necessary to join by April 20 to enable the organization of the pilgrimage and the preparation of all participants. There will be a few collective zoom calls to explain all the details of the walk, recommend equipment, and how to prepare in the most appropriate way.

This retreat is limited to 6 people to provide an intimate and personal experience.

If arriving by plane, the best arrival airport is Cagliari.

Shamanic Journey “Opening the Connection”

The first 2025 journey in Sardinia guided by the Brazilian Shamans will be in the Ogliastra region known for its incredible light blue sea and Gennargentu mountains.

Ritual: Spring Purification Lodge

Spring is the time where we say goodbye to the winter cocoon that has embraced us for the last months. We can sense a new fresh vital energy surrounding us that comes with the spring. In this magic awakening of life and vitality, however new life is still quite vulnerable: plants are growing and fortifying their roots, stem and buds to become stronger and to flourish over the year.

Spring is showing us an explosion of life and invites us to participate to the nature’s cyclic dance. It is a time of deep transformation and changes, where our old skin might not fit us anymore and a new vulnerable layer has already started growing to support our inner growth and our precious buds to blossom.

This shamanic ritual invites you to leave the winter “coat” for a new dress that allows your transformation and expansion to happen. We will nurture our inner core, strengthen our roots, stem and buds, so we can flourish and bring our flowers and fruits into the world.

The medicine of the purification lodge - also called sweat lodge - is a shamanic ritual for purification. Every ritual holds the possibility to receive, to heal and to dive deeper into the core of our being. We celebrate this ritual to open our heart and our intuition to the fine, healing vibrations of the Great Mother and to connect with the power and wisdom of the Four Elements. Each time we renew an old bond that reminds us again and again that we are children of Mother Earth.

This ritual is:

• for everyone who feels the call to purify, cleanse and revitalise the four bodies (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).

• for whom feels the call to connect deeper with Nature and the ancient Medicine of the Purification Lodge.

• for all who want to strengthen their inner core and prepare for their inner transformation and expansion

Shamanic Journey in the Land of Ancestral Healing

Decolonising our minds, purifying our bodies, nurturing our spirits

Sardinia - a land of myths, wisdom and wilderness. A land where tribes from all the Mediterranean would come to healing and the drink from its source of wellness. But also a land were many tribes passed and attempted to colonise. In this process of colonisation, something remained quite pure and untouched: the mystical essence of the land. A vibration that touches anyone who steps their feet in Sardinia. That vibration cannot be colonised, cannot be taken, it belongs to Mother Nature. In this journey of heling and self-knowledge, we will decolonise those concepts that do not serve us anymore, we will bring a cleanse to our bodies and drink from the nectar of Mother Nature.
In this journey we will travel from the coastal and mountains areas of the East coast, where honouring the native population archaeological sites, and supported by the shamanic medicines, we will create a space to listen the ancient wisdom of this land.
It’s wonderful to have our teachers, XamAM and Dhan Ribeiro from the Brazilian tribe Terra Mirim, to guide us into a deep shamanic journey in the ancestral land of Sardinia. The Shamans have been walking the path of the Goddess Mother inspired by the Shamanism of the Four Elements for more than 40 years.

It’s an honour to welcome our teachers and to be able to share their wisdom and sacred medicines with us. For those who feel the call, this is a warm invitation to join us in this shamanic journey to feel, touch and activate the precious healing energy of Sardinia in us.

Workshop: “We Women, Lunatic Beings”

“We Women, Lunatic Beings”: Discovering the Mysteries of the Dark Feminine

We, women are moody beings. By moody I mean that we have the ability to experience different polarities in our lives and show various sides of ourselves, just like the moon. Often misunderstood, first and foremost by ourselves, what we often seek is a journey into ourselves, a path of authenticity to reveal our myriad nuances, feel our life purpose and express ourselves.

This journey into the mysteries of the dark feminine wishes to reveal the fiery, transformative aspect of our femininity. To honour the cycle of birth, death and rebirth that is at the centre of our history as women and at the centre of Mother Earth.

Dark feminine energy is often misunderstood as negative, but instead it represents the mysterious, intuitive and inner aspect of femininity. Aligning oneself with the dark feminine leads to a deep understanding of one’s fears and shadows, a discovery of one’s sensuality and authenticity, and a recognition of that transformative power.

Furthermore, the dark feminine energy helps us confront our fears and shadows, allowing us to integrate these aspects of ourselves into a complete and empowered version of ourselves.

It is the force that drives a woman’s inner knowing, emotional depth and spiritual connection.

“We Women, Lunatic beings" is a shamanic path that, through the female archetypes, allow us to explore the energies that move within ourselves, stimulating a deep understanding of our inner diversity.

The events are in Tortolì (Ogliastra, Italy)

Retreat: A Shamanic Journey to (Re)connect to Yourself

This retreat is a 15-day deep shamanic immersion at the Terra Mirim community in Brazil, a natural and ancestral healing centre located 30 minutes from Salvador in Baia. The retreat is co-guided by Isha and Terra Mirim’s best shamans and healers to create a protected and sacred space of self-knowledge, healing and deepening.

The retreat, held in the heart of the Atlantic forest, begins with preparation and purification practices and rituals to create a good grounding and arrival for all the participants. Then in the following days, it delves into the heart of the shamanic medicinal plants honoured for centuries by the native tribes of Latin America. For each shamanic ritual and dynamic, there will be an opportunity to share and integrate the experience and touch the essence of what has been lived. The last part of the programme includes participation in the unmissable Pachamama Festival, which has been held in Terra Mirim for several years. The festival attracts people from all over the world and engages with art as a shamanic healing tool, offering spaces for sacredness and creativity.

To say yes to such an experience is to say yes to oneself. The programme was prepared with care and love so that participants could take time and space for themselves to re-evaluate and deepen the aspects of their lives that most need attention and support.

There is something very magical about the ritual of the purification lodge in the middle of the Sardinian winter.

🔥 The grandfather fire warms up the stones bringing warmth and light to these cold winter days.

🌱 The cool and moist mother earth nourishes the roots of the ancient citrus trees that are bearing their first fruits of the season.

🍊 The air is infused by the scent of mandarins and oranges making us imagining the juiciness and sweetness in our palates.

🌿 The herbal bath gathers the care of those Mediterranean herbs that are ready to bless our new year.

⛺️ The lodge, covered with shawls like a wise lady who wants to warm her up, opens her arms to welcome us.

Each time we renew an old bond that reminds us again and again that we are children of planet earth.

Ritual: Late Summer Purification Lodge

Feeling abundant means to feel the richness of life, to perceive the many opportunities that life constantly brings us and to touch a sense of gratitude. In this, we can recognise that everything has a cycle of life and death: things start and finish – and, we are part of this beautiful dance of nature.

On the other hand, we also live in a world where crisis and scarcity are around and presented daily in the media. We might perceive the pain and violence of Mother Earth and her living beings and it might be difficult to see the abundance there. How can we change this perspective from lacking to satisfaction? How can we see the richness of our lives? How can we touch the abundance of cycles that have a beginning, a maturity and then, an end. How can we create a world of abundance for us?

When we connect to this sense of inner abundance, life too begins “to gift us", to bring concrete manifestations of this flow of abundance in different aspects of our life. In this ritual of the purification lodge, we will celebrate together abundance in all its forms to dive deeper in ourselves and to enrich various facets of our lives with abundance.

Ritual: Spring Purification Lodge

Spring is the time where we say goodbye to the winter cocoon that has embraced us for the last months. We can sense a new fresh vital energy surrounding us that comes with the spring. In this magic awakening of life and vitality, however new life is still quite vulnerable: plants are growing and fortifying their roots, stem and buds to become stronger and to flourish over the year.

Spring is showing us an explosion of life and invites us to participate to the nature’s cyclic dance. It is a time of deep transformation and changes, where our old skin might not fit us anymore and a new vulnerable layer has already started growing to support our inner growth and our precious buds to blossom.

This shamanic ritual invites you to leave the winter “coat” for a new dress that allows your transformation and expansion to happen. We will nurture our inner core, strengthen our roots, stem and buds, so we can flourish and bring our flowers and fruits into the world.

Awakening Womb Wisdom

The womb is mainly considered when we, women, are about to become mothers, giving birth, and then… remembered perhaps on the days of the cycle or if we are experiences any sickness related to it.

Why, if in many traditions the womb is considered the most sacred center of women’s power and wisdom, does it tend to be forgotten and neglected?

With this seminar series we want to bring attention, awaken and connect with the wisdom of our womb. When a woman shifts her center of gravity to her womb, she becomes more centered, empowered, present and grounded. She can birth herself.

These workshops are for girls and women from 13 years up.

They are for girls and women who are simply curious, want to connect to their menstrual cycle, have a painful cycle, are in menopause, have been abused, are or want to become mothers, have had an abortion, have had a hysterectomy, want to heal inner wounds, want to change something in their life or simply want to live better.

These workshops include:

• guided meditations

• body movements

• deepening the relation with the lunar cycles

• Shamanic dynamics

• mantras and music

• sharing

• integration

There will be 4 workshops and each will have a different theme.

*Connecting to our womb
*Friday, July 2 - Waning moon

*Rooting through our womb
*Friday, July 9 - New moon

*Awakening the creativity of our womb
*Thursday, July 15 - Waxing moon

*Aligning heart-womb
*Friday, July 23 - Full moon

They will be from 8.30-10:45pm. You must arrive by 8:45pm to be able to enter. No experience in Shamanism or knowledge of these topics is necessary, just an open and interested attitude and heart.

Each seminar will have a contribution of 15 euros. You can participate in individual seminars, or if you want to book all four seminars, instead of 60 euros, the contribution will be 50 euros.

For each seminar you will need a yoga mat (if possible), a pillow (if possible), comfortable clothes, some water and a notebook/agenda with pen.

Limited places - reservations are necessary.

For any information and to book you need to contact Isha via email, Facebook or Instagram.

Ritual: Autumn Purification Lodge

This is the first of three autumn events that mark the beginning of the darkest season, the season of letting go, recollection and introspection. In autumn, we begin to consider our past year and prepare for winter and a new cycle of life. It is no coincidence that, in Celtic tradition, the end of October marks Samhain or the Celtic New Year, an auspicious time to make personal evaluations. In this evaluation, one asks oneself which were the main crops of this year and which seeds failed to germinate. One wonders which dreams, ideas and projects one wants to let go of and which ones one wants to reconsider. This autumn purification lodge prepares us for the entrance of the darker season, a journey into the underworld in order to make an honest reflection with oneself.

This period at the end of October is also marked by the strong connection that exists between the realms of the spirits and the living. Indeed, this purification lodge wants to use this portal to let go of those seeds that we no longer wish to plant so that they can ‘rest in peace’. It will be a purification of our four bodies (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) in the ancestral womb of Mother Earth.

The ritual of the purification lodge - often also called sweat lodge - is a shamanic medicine for purification. Every ritual holds the possibility to receive, to heal and to dive deeper into the core of our being. We celebrate this ritual to open our heart and our intuition to the fine, healing vibrations of the Great Mother and to connect with the power and wisdom of the Four Elements. Each time we renew an old bond that reminds us again and again that we are children of planet earth.

This ritual is:

• for everyone who feels the call to purify, cleanse and revitalise the four bodies (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).

• for whom feels the call to connect deeper with Nature and the ancient medicine of the Purification Lodge.

• who want to reflect on various aspects of their lives and let go of what is not needed

What we offer:

• Ritual of the purification lodge

• Shamanic dynamics

• Mantras and shamanic songs

• Preparation of the lodge

• Sacred fire

• Herbal bath

• Shamanic sharing circle

Join us for this joyful celebration. No experience of shamanism is needed.

Saturday 19th Oct: 3pm to 11pm

This retreat provides you a sacred space, where shamanic medicines will guide you on a deep journey into the soul.

The path of the** Daughters of the Moon with Isha **

We, women are moody beings. By moody I mean that we have the ability to experience different polarities in our lives and show various faces of ourselves, just like the moon. Often misunderstood, first and foremost by ourselves, what we often seek is a journey into ourselves, a path of authenticity to reveal our many nuances, feel our life purpose and express ourselves without fear to the world as what we are.

These paths are for women who want to deepen their relationship with the feminine. Who want to know themselves and the mysteries of their feminine, who want to heal and transform their wounds, pains and alchemise their traumas towards an energy of creativity and fertility. A path of purification and embodiment so that the wisdom of the womb can be awakened and listened.

Both online and in-person events are all experiential and shamanic journeys that require active participation and an intention to connect deeply with one’s feminine.

What we offer:

• A protected and safe space for women

• Shamanic sharing

• Practices for the awakening of womb energy

• Explorations of divine archetypes and women’s wisdom

• Practices of heart-womb alignment

• Activation of the womb as a source of creative and fertile potential

• Shamanic meditations

Ritual: Winter Solstice Purification Lodge

In the darkest night of the year, we gather in front of a fire to see and listen each other. Sharing some music, be present to ourselves and to the others. Searching for our inner light to illuminate our path.

There is something very magical about the ritual of the purification lodge in the middle of the Sardinian winter and specially during the Winter Solstice.

🔥 The grandfather fire warms up the stones bringing warmth and light to these cold winter days.

🌱 The cool and moist mother earth nourishes the roots of the ancient citrus trees that are bearing their first fruits of the season.

🍊 The air is infused by the scent of mandarins and oranges making us imagining the juiciness and sweetness in our palates.

🌿 The herbal bath gathers the care of those Mediterranean herbs that are ready to bless our new year.

Ritual: Purification Lodge for Peace

In Sardinia, there is a typical answer to the question “How are you?”. Sardinians often reply “You know, fighting”. But, what is this fight? And, how seeds of peace can be planted there? In a world where conflicts and wars are rising over and over again, in this ritual, we will look at our inner conflicts to learn and to see what peace means within us. What are our inner conflicts? Are there parts in us where we feel betrayed and are looking for revenge? What can we learn from them and how can we transform our inner battleships into lands of peace? The purification lodge will be our teacher.

In this ritual of the purification lodge, we will bring our inner conflicts to learn and to purify with the intention to plant seeds of peace within us and in the world. The purification lodge creates a protected space of care, learning and love and will support us to heal and purify our four bodies (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).

The ritual of the purification lodge - often also called sweat lodge - is a shamanic medicine for purification. Every ritual holds the possibility to receive, to heal and to dive deeper into the core of our being.

Shamanic Retreat: Weaving the Threads of Life

When we were in Brazil for our Shamanic Initiation in February, we envisioned a longer retreat where people could dedicate four days for themselves. As we were experiencing how the medicine of Nature and the Fire Element were transforming our lives, we felt the importance to offer such a protected healing space also in our School of Life, such that people can go deeper in themselves and revise the different aspects of their lives to go into Autumn with a fresh and enriched energy.

You might be asking - “why might this retreat be for me?” After being more than 10 years in this shamanic path, we, Artejanis, know how nurturing it is when we slow down, stop for a moment and recalibrate and resynchronise our lives while being surrounded by wild nature. Accordingly, we will provide you a protected, wild and authentic space in Sardinia combined with shamanic guidance of care and love and the support of the medicine of Nature to find out what you need to grow into the next stage of your life.

So here it is, our long awaited shamanic offering for the year – a journey of 4 days in Sardinia to dive deep into the threads and diverse aspects of our lives to become more and more the Artist of your own life. In these days, you will have time to profoundly touch what aspects of your life wants to be seen, transformed and nurtured. Starting in the darkness of the new moon, we will day by day weave our threads of life into the crescent moon. The energy of the element Fire will be our guide.

• Which are the threads that are not needed anymore and which are those there to stay?
• Which are the threads that want to be transformed or revised?
• Which are the new threads that want to be weaved into your life?

This shamanic journey will take place in a magic space in the Sardinian mountains, a jewel in uncontaminated wilderness - Erbelathori. Then, you can choose to stay some more days near the cristalline waters of the Mediterranean sea to integrate and relax. Our journey will go through the mountains and for whom wish, it can finish at the sea.

Retreat: Back to the roots

When we get to Erbelathori we breathe, we breathe in the real sense. We breathe authenticity, silence and life. We breathe things that are not easily found in our current society. In Erbelathori we also can breathe freshness and freedom.

We would like to take you there, to that protected place, where the fragrances of thyme and lavender inebriate us, where the stars guide us through the night, where the mouflons retreat and where the waters sing and dance.

In this magical place we would like to create a space of silence to align ourselves with the rhythms of the mountain and of our being. A space to enter into a deep connection with ourselves. A space to reconnect, to feel and to listen.

This retreat is for all those who feel the call towards themselves, to their roots and to nature. Following the footsteps of Sardinian shepherds, we would like to connect with our origins, with our ancestors, with our land, with the simplicity of life.

Retreat: Birthing your dream

Some dreams are there to be born, not only to be dreamt. Yet, the birthing process of a dream is often a very difficult one that needs good tools and experience. In this retreat, we want to provide a safe and nurturing space, where you can explore your dream with all your senses and experience its birthing process.

It doesn’t matter what you have achieved or not in this life, the central question of this retreat is: at this moment of my life what is my yearning? What is my soul dream that wants to be born into life? What resistances are attached to this birth?

We are honoured to held this retreat in a place where a vision and a dream have been realised. Erbelathori is a sheepfold-refuge, at 1200m, located in one of the most evocative, uncontaminated and unexplored corners of Ogliastra. Erbalelathori was indeed a dream, a very difficult one even to be imagined, and almost impossible to be realised. Yet, now it stands as a jewel, a space of authenticity, originality and simplicity.

In this retreat, embraced by the wild and native nature of Sardinia and the purest waters of the Gennargentu, we dive into a shamanic journey of self-knowledge and exploration. A journey to listen to the voice of our soul, so we can see our dream, feel what resistances are attached to it and refine our intention. We, here at Artejanis, believe that our deepest dreams are precious threads to craft a fulfilling and enriched life.

Shamanic Journey “Deepening the Connection”

This journey will be in a new location in one of the most popular regions of North Sardinia. Gallura is known for its beautiful landscapes, incredible granite rock shapes and breathtaking views. The journey will be located in a beautiful Agriturismo at the feet of one of the pearls of Sardinia: Monte Pulchiana. This incredible location makes the journey particularly special as it’s a perfect spot for diving deep in ourselves. The agriturismo is a hidden gem in the countryside and with their delicious home-made and local meals our physical bodies will be nurtured.

During the retreat we will have a beautiful ritual while walking at the base of Monte Pulchiana in a path of blooming spring native herbs and a deep ritual on our inner artist in a local woodland. We will visit sacred ancient sites built by the native Nuragic population and enjoy local perls in one of the evenings. Herbs and arts will be a key component of this journey to facilitate our inner and outer cleansing and expression.

All our bodies will be taken care by the guidance of XamAM and Dhan Ribeiro and the wisdom of the plant medicines that will guide our journey. This retreat will deeply restore your system allowing you to powerfully dive into your own life.
