Tenaya Jewell: scientist and sacred activist.

Sacred activism is the blending of science and spirituality. It is the blending of one’s spiritual practice with one’s everyday life to include activism and it is about letting the work you do transform your inner life, seeing that what you advocate for is your mirror, your teacher and your healer. 

“A spirituality that is only private and self-absorbed, one devoid of an authentic political and social consciousness, does little to halt the suicidal juggernaut of history.

Everyone's perspective is important, and there is always an underlying reason for an animal's behavior. We can gain so much by hearing directly from our animals, and it's reassuring to have things we think we know validated by an expert. Working with an animal communicator can provide us with lots of new information and insights! If you have ever wondered about animal communication or if it can help- take a listen and see for yourself.

In Equine Assisted Practices, horses show up differently than when they are being bosses around or manipulated into tricks and trainings.  The things horseship ( the relationship with a horse) reveals is so absolutely different than the mind numbing expereinces they go through in the old paradigm, before the "Quiet Revolution".
