Holly Tree - Tree Wisdom Journey

All Forestheart Tree Wisdom Journey workshops are approximately two hours long and include a guided meditation in the form of a visionary drum journey followed by a beautifully crafted PowerPoint presentation with stunning pictures.

After your personal experience with the tree of your choice, you will learn about this tree's botanical, medicinal, practical, symbolic and mythological relevance in the context of ancestral Tree Lore. The Tree Wisdom Journeys are designed to speak both to the intuitive as well as the rational sides of our being.

A previous workshop participant said:

"The guided journey was a deep experience and the presentation that followed allowed my experience to continue. Yannick weaves magic through his meditative journeys in collaboration with the wisdom of the trees he presents. His beautiful artwork in the presentation brought my experience to life. Truly transformational".
 
The Holly Tree - Tree Wisdom Journey:

The medicine of Holly is about finding a healthy way of meeting edges, our own and those of others. It teaches an appropriate way of relating to our anger. Holly helps rekindle the fire of vitality within ourselves.

This Tree Wisdom banner unites the fire and the ice, the elements of creation. It speaks of pure life force and vitality, even in seemingly hostile situations.

The holly tree communicates to us: "I am Holly. I protect myself effortlessly. It's natural to me and I am unashamed of my spikes. Nobody eats my leaves or walks into me without feeling my edge. Edges are parts of life".

Holly has a true warrior attitude, a strong inner fire, and an edge that meets life with intensity and vitality. It is a particularly great tree to connect with at the time of the Winter Solstice, around the 21st of December.

These are some of the themes woven into the creation of this visionary Tree Wisdom Journey.
