Embodying Consciousness Playshop with Wolfgang Ettenreich
Step into an exciting transformative practice!
We all have the ability to recognize and share the feelings of another person, commonly referred to as empathy. In this playshop we will be utilizing a method called ‘Walking In Your Shoes®’ (WIYS), which will take us beyond our experience of empathy in daily life. What is it like putting yourself into someone else’s shoes? See how it feels when you embody another consciousness or are in resonance with another being.
Together we create a safe container where we can be each other: be seen, be vulnerable - without judgments or interpretations. We then ‘work’ (or play) with what’s arising in the very moment.
Join us to explore and cultivate empathy, to connect more authentically with others, and to experience a different kind of knowing. This is an opportunity for diving deeply into the vastness of human experience.
If you could walk in my shoes,
You would see, I paid my dues,
I worked hard my whole life through,
Even though, I no longer do.
You would see how hard I tried.
You would see how hard I cried.
Can’t you see my condition is real,
Even though you can’t see what I feel.
Manuela McPhee (5/23/2009, excerpt)
What To Expect:
Intro: Short introduction to WIYS and levels of empathy (as needed).
Breathwork & Meditation: a simple breathing exercise, sensing of the body and/or a short guided meditation.
The ‘Walk’ - An Exercise In Empathy: The main part of the playshop. We will take turns to embody the consciousness of another person, elements of nature or what you would like to explore.

Spring Equinox Meditation with Marian Noble
🌸 Spring Equinox Meditation Hour 🌸
Embrace the Balance of Light and Dark
Step into a sacred space of peace and renewal as we welcome the energy of the Spring Equinox. This is a time of perfect balance—day and night in harmony, inviting us to pause, reflect, and realign with nature’s rhythm.
For one hour, immerse yourself in quiet meditation, surrounded by the high-vibrational energy of our space. Whether you sit in stillness or recline into deep relaxation, let the season’s transformative energy guide you inward.
🔹 Bring what comforts you: blankets, pillows, bolsters, eye masks—whatever helps you settle in. We also have community items available.
🔹 Honor the silence: To maintain the meditative atmosphere, we ask that all guests remain quiet during this time.
Come as you are, breathe deeply, and attune yourself to the renewal of the season. 🌿✨
