Benefactor - Herstory:  
Mary Francis (Fanny) Dorman's  story is an inspiration to the impact walking labyrinths can have on people.  Her story is a 2 year long journey to make it happen without either of us physically 'being there' to lay it out!   It was all done long distance with a lot of  bumps in the road and sustained Faith!   

Mary has arranged three talks for me - one at the local offices - open to the public, the local School, and on Oct. 31st the actual facilitation inviting the local Anglican Minister and Parish Priest to the Dedication of the Memorial Labyrinth and an invitation to dedicate the site.

"I want to walk the labyrinth on Carriacou"    Click on this link and make your request, and you'll be sent local contact information. And ask for the one page instruction: "How to walk the labyrinth" provided by Rev. Dr. Virginia LoneSky.


It's been a pleasure to be a part of making Mary's dream come true, and educating the community on the use of labyrinths in our everyday lives.  Thanks to the two radio stations who did interviews and the reporter, Mr. Patterson, from The Grenada Informer.

The workshop begins with a talking circle, learning about labyrinths and how they can be used in everyday life. Everyone in attendance will learn to work together to align sacred objects to create sacred space.  Then Virginia will create a safe space in which you can experience what it feels like to gently go on your own personal Journey of rediscovery.  

Everyone should bring ‘one object’ that means something special to them to help introduce yourself to the circle and place in our group altar.   A crystal, stone, feather, piece of jewelry, statue, flower, etc.  (Everyone will take back their object after the workshop).  

We will be outdoors for a portion of the day, so dress appropriately.  Bring a folding chair if you have one, and water to drink.   Bring drums, rattles, chimes, bells, music makers of all kind for our ‘completion’ celebration after our walk.   No previous labyrinth experience is required.  Come empty and leave full!

Peaceful Endeavours 

Offering Unique One Of A Kind 
Heartfelt Group Labyrinth Walks...
"Re-Train Your Brain"
Let Go of Patterns That Hold You Back

Working with Labyrinths, my years of research would confirm how much it has to do with our 'brains' and why I see my workshops make a big difference in people after they 'experience' the use of a labyrinth in a 'guided labyrinth walk' to raise up their 'perspective' to balance in joy and positive outcomes... i.e. I facilitate to 'reset the brain pattern'..... Working with group setting, I honor the group intent as directed by the host organization or persons... for more information...send me a Message Virginia LoneSky, ThD - Group Labyrinth Facilitator



The Amygdala is a major section of the brain which 'stores drama and trauma'.   (Essential Oils work with this part of the Brain to release as well).  Walking a labyrinth with my guided 'setting free' approach helps cleanse and remove old patterns,  and refresh with new positive concepts and thoughts).  

The 'Amygdala' gland resides within the brain behind the bridge of your nose.  Sometimes referred to in  sacred writings referencing the Mary Magdalene as 'the almond' i.e. it is part of sacred geometry shape in the middle of a vesica piscis, or to me, the place where 'birthing and creation energy is magnified.   See the 'almond' shape in the pattern (actual picture of Chalice Well, Somerset, England well cover).




                           
                              Chalice Well - Glastonbury, England


Actual Sacred Geometry 'Center" Almond





I use the twenty-five years of offering healing practices and the research of T. D. Land in my facilitation, when the 'client' or organization requests a Transformational intention/workshop.   Especially useful in my research for Veterans and First Responders and PTSD.   I am in process to roll out a 'Circle of Self-Awareness" to support working out the issues that are hanging on in their 'memories'.  As part of one step in their therapy journey.

My Facilitation experience acknowledges the importance of working with the awareness of how we can 'unwind drama and trauma'.  Those lingering  behavior patterns of the individual, when they feel they keep repeating and repeating behaviors.  When you often feel 'stuck'.

All my research and experience with group outcomes has been integrated with my 25 years of working the Shamanic model as taught by Tlakaelel from the Azteca lineage; and don Oscar Miro-Quesada in the Packakuti Mesa Tradition.   


But, this does not limit my audiences.  I have presented at major Universities, Hospital Conferences, Catholic, Lutheran, Churches; Spiritualist, Eastern Indian, and Native American groups, etc.

My 'teaching' and facilitation practice is not the focus...the venue totally customizes and dictates what is to be done.  We harness the energy and the group weaves within their belief system what the Facilitation is to be and it is always transparent.  I speak the etheric 'language' of the group in tone of my voice.  I also like to integrate 'music' and sound.

                       
I understand how much our DNA contributes and contains a system of 'presets', that I have seen 'shift and change', when a person is coming forward to investigate how to change.  By using my Facilitation techniques, I guide them through in a 'walking meditation' environment to 'let go' as set by my Facilitation  of support in kindness and peace.







I have traveled around the world ...worked with groups who do not speak English as a 1st language, and can communicated through gentle 'guided meditation' with music, and guiding each person to walking the labyrinth at each person's own pace.  

I look forward to being invited to bring this gentle, heartwarming community approach to your area...transformation in self and community.. does take a village approach. 


To find out more ....write today to Rev. Dr. Virginia LoneSky-Nardecchia, Founder of Peaceful Endeavours Labyrinths.   Open to all denominations, beliefs, peaceful pursuits.

Welcome to 2015
Come join Peaceful Endeavours
On the path

Picture Credit: Sandy Pederson Inkster - Ontario, Canada - Thank you !

   Greetings to all those who have found their way to this page...
Peaceful Endeavours has been working with Community since 1988, and since 1999 has incorporated the use of Labyrinths, and Labyrinth Facilitation into its practice.   Honors all beliefs and traditions. 

     Peaceful Endeavours Founder, Virginia LoneSky, ThD - is an Ordained Minister, Ceremonialist, Geomancer, Medicine Woman, Fire Keeper, Canupa carrier, and walks in all worlds, even corporate team building!   

As a member of the Labyrinth Society (TLS), she and has been its Key-Note Speaker, taking all she has practiced on the land through ancient cultures and integrated the Labyrinth pattern to expand awareness.

She has researched patterns, and the way they work with our bodies, and on the land.  Uses the labyrinth in the same way the ancient shaman and goddess cultures worked with the land and people.   She has given presentations at TLS Annual Conferences, and has given workshops and held ceremonies, all over the world.   

She has developed Programs which can be integrated into all therapy practices.   Created, "Walk Awhile In My Boots" TM  program for Veterans and First Responders - and in 2015 will be honored to present a "Labyrinth Walk for Inner Peace" at the Walter Reed National Military Hospital in Maryland with Sandra Wasko-Flood, Founder, Living Labyrinths For Peace.   Our two organizations have teamed up, the last three years, to do the TLS "Walk As One @ 1"  Labyrinth Society World-wide walk for awareness.

Virginia has integrated the labyrinth work into her Earth honoring ceremonies, and has incorporated her life's experience within the knowledge shared with her by her Indigenous Elders, Teachers and Grandmothers from the Lakota, Anishinaabe, Aztec, Mayan, Maori and Peruvian medicine society cultures.  Along with her Eastern European, Celtic, Gaelic roots, birthed her feminine - goddess - earth honoring blend of healing ceremonies and developed new "Rights of Initiation" incorporating your tradition and beliefs.   

She considers herself very fortunate to have been able to live and practice her vision of integrating your beliefs into co-creating your 'new ceremonies', to build and empower your communities to 'meet and share', to grow forward. 

She has been an active integrator of the feminine mysteries and Madonna cultures, and has done her own Quest in France and walked the mountains and knelt near the streams of herstory..within the lineage of the Mary Magdalene, with the Celtic and Gaelic traditions of her lineage still unfolding.   

She is dedicated to sharing the songs and ceremonies that were taught to her by her Elders and Grandmothers, and weaving in the bits and pieces of your language and traditions.   And most of all....having fun doing it!   

She is an Earth based, Goddess of Gaia oriented practitioner, who advocates for remembering to honor the spaces and places we live.  To return the drumming, singing and dancing into our world.  Share the Fire and Water ceremonies as adapted to your community, and honor all those who have contributed to who she has become.

"We all have it within us to be one with  Universal Love, By taking one conscious moment of gratitude to say out loud 'thank you' to your surroundings, you will shift yourself and your space in that magic moment!"  Virginia LoneSky ThD


Unknown source...please advise ..

We are the "Web of Life".  All communities connected.   What awaits all of us, is to BELIEVE we can create, the world we desire.  So join with Peaceful Endeavours in creating something in your Community.

 May we find each out ...along the Path....   Munay,  Virginia
