Layla remaps Cana’an and its crossroads, exploring the complexities, systemic impacts, and yearnings of diaspora. She shows how ancestral healing practices connect land and kin—calling back and forth across geographies and generations and providing an embodied lifeline for regenerative healing and repair.

In collaboration with CIIS, join Maryam and Layla on Thursday, April 4th at 6PM PST for a profound conversation that invites us to re-member our roots, to deepen our relationship with the lands where we live in diaspora, and is a beckoning call towards belonging, healing, and freedom through tending the land in your own bones.

NATURE AS A SPIRITUAL TEACHER: RETURN TO YOUR WILDNESS

Across various traditions, nature has been held in deep reverence. Many mystics, medicine people, and now neuroscientists state that a return to the wild is necessary, both personally and collectively.

In this workshop we:

• Discuss the crisis of the current nature deficit
• Learn practices for returning to nature in an honorable way
• Discover how being in the right relationships, with consent and permission, are important parts of this work
• Explore sustainability from a mystical perspective
• Examine roadmaps provided by various spiritual lineages and traditions

Allowing nature to be your spiritual teacher this weekend, you are guided through meditation practices that cultivate reconnection with the natural world. You begin to repair your sacred relationship to nature and transform the way you live in harmony with your own divine nature.

Join us in person Friday, June 14th - Sunday, June 16th in Rhinebeck, New York.
