Sign up here: NewRenBooks.com/events

Join us for an intimate evening with Roman Hanis, co-founder of Paititi Institute and author of the international bestselling book Beyond Ayahuasca.

You will be guided through:

• Insights from Beyond Ayahuasca, a book designed as a living rite of passage
• Sacred activism and the mission supporting the Yahua Ancestral School in the Amazon
• A deeper understanding of healing, purpose, and walking in right relationship
• A short Peruvian standing breathwork practice to directly experience the work
• Open Q&A and space for connection

Books will be available for purchase at the event with an opportunity to have them signed. This is a rare opportunity to sit in person with a teacher visiting from Perú and receive these teachings in person.

We are all the finger of Genesis, a literal incarnation of Cosmic reaching for new life.

As children of the Cosmos, the boundless creativity, beauty, and light that permeate the Universe are written in our DNA. Every longing and crisis call us back to that foundational wellspring of existence.

Whether you are restless and craving for ‘more’, numbed out by internet addiction, or reeling from the latest toxic round of daily news, that expansive nature is a waiting source of reassurance and direction.

Explore fresh inroads and immediate access to the gifts inherent in your Cosmic nature with Portland author, Ann Shannon (Entering the River Naked; Field Notes from the Feminine Wild).

Ann will introduce you to affirmations, prayers, and practices that have been honed over a lifetime of wrestling with life’s daunting issues and questions. Drawn from the heights, depths, joys and perplexities of human experience, they offer revivifying touchstones for weathering life’s heaviest storms.

Bring a notebook and pen and leave with tender glimpses of what your connection to Cosmos could mean to your daily life— and the world.

Come gather in singing sacred names and shared devotion. Kīrtan is a joyful, heart opening call and response chanting practice that uplifts the spirit, invites connection within ourselves, with each other and with the divine. All voices welcome, exactly as you are, no experience needed

Based in Portland, Kana Hattori is a devotional singer and kīrtan leader who offers this practice as a path of joy, bliss, devotion and deep emotional honesty from lived experience and deep gratitude.

Kīrtan carried her through some of the most challenging seasons of her life, becoming a source of strength, refuge, trust and renewal.

Now she shares it regularly in community, holding gentle, heart-centered spaces where all voices are welcome.

Rooted in Bhakti, guided by heart, her offerings invite others to connect deeply within themselves, with each other and with the sacred, and to discover the joy, healing that awaken when we sing together, remembering that our own voices are medicine, and that devotion can be both powerful and tender.

In Person Event! Raven Medicine: A Shamanic Crystal Healing Soundbath

David Silvermoon, Friday, May 29, 6:30-7:30PM, Sliding Scale $25-$50

​Sign Up Here: NewRenBooks.com/events

Join us for a restful and healing end of week Raven Medicine Sound Bath.

The Raven – revered across shamanic traditions as a powerful messenger between worlds, master of transformation, keeper of secrets, and harbinger of profound change – is my guide, and our guiding light for this work.

Grounding shamanic drumming to awaken.

The ethereal tones from crystal singing bowls to carry us into our journey.

Gentle guided intention-setting to invite personal metamorphosis, insight, and release of what no longer serves.

We will gather, set our prayers and intentions, and then you can simply lie down (or sit comfortably) in a supported, sacred space while being enveloped in waves of healing sound and vibration.

What to expect:

Profound relaxation and nervous system reset

Emotional release, clarity, and spiritual downloads

Energetic cleansing and alignment

Vibrational lightening, and auric clearing.

Let’s gather in sacred sound and allow transformation to unfold.

David Silvermoon is Shamanic Crystal Sound Healer, who has been practicing the healing arts for over 20 years. He recently received guidance from his primary spiritual guide, who is a Raven, to provide sound healing for the community. He is excited to bring his healing work out into the world.
