Coming to Your Senses in Nature!
August 7–10, 2025
On Land Retreats, The Natural World, Yoga & Wellness
When: August 7th – 10th, 2025
Tuition Cost: $333
This program will seem like magic, and a dream.
You will come into all of your senses, including your “Mind Sense,” to see beyond our current understanding, and to connect into the beings of the Earth and Sky.
Drala Mountain Center was named for the “Dralas”: active and dynamic non-human beings inhabiting or working with the air element, invisible to ordinary human perception.
When we learn to communicate with Earth spirits and their archetypes (what I call “natural groupings”), the door opens to working with them as allies and collaborators. Scientists such as Monica Gagliano (“Thus Spoke the Plant”) now include attribution to these non-human beings in professional publications.
Once you encounter the Dralas, you come to see that they are connected to the Subtle Energy System, and, like the mycelial and mycorrhizal networks of the physical Earth, we too are networked into the spiritual realm of the Earth.
What to Expect in Your Encounter with the Magic of the Dralas
- You will learn to communicate with the Dralas, beings that have an interconnected yet individuated or collective self.
- We will experience the plants, trees, and animals of our sacred land. We’ll interact and learn from the hardy Ponderosa Pine and gentle Quaking Aspen. The alpine wildflowers will be in full bloom, and we’ll connect to their physical essence, and quickly or perhaps gradually, communicate with their spirit expression.
- You will see your own Subtle Energy System. This includes your Biofield (vortexes and channels) and your Auric Field. You will be taught techniques for seeing and feeling into the subtle energy systems of the Dralas.
- You have probably seen your dog dream, but do plants dream? Yes, they do! We will learn techniques of inquiry into plants, fungi, and master plants within the meditation and dream realms.
- You will learn the basics of the Tibetan system of divination, called “Mo” and Tibetan bead counting, called “Teng Mo.” These systems are tools for connection into the Dralas.
- You will learn skrying with water, also known as “hydromancy.” Water is the consciousness of Mother Earth, and this technique connects us directly into that level of consciousness.
- You will learn how to use found objects in nature for divination.
- We will call in the lha (deities of the sky), the nyen (mountain gods), and the lu (nāgas or dragons).
What You Will Take Away with You
You will practice communication with these energies such that you take with you the confidence and knowing of how to return to those states of communication at home.
What Participants Have Said About Sessions and Courses with Kimla
“This was a very special group of realized practitioners (wow, was I lucky to have the chance to take part!).”
“You provided me with the most marvelous journey of my soul’s lifetime thus far. I look forward to always being connected to you, even after throwing a happy pipe bomb in my consciousness for pure expansion of course!”
“There were days where making my bed, living another day felt unbearable – living hour by hour. I have the tools now to heal myself and return to my soul’s purpose – to work with my Mind / Body / Spirit to help others. Thank you for “seeing” me, for allowing me into your space, for giving me a gift that will never lose its value.”
“She is a beautifully compassionate individual that exudes kind and loving wisdom. I found Kimla’s hypnosis session to be profoundly healing. I learned aspects of self that my higher consciousness wanted to share with me. The information gained has continued to provide understanding and growth as only a conversation with the soul can.”
“I love it when a course is better than a book could ever be and even more so when it’s shared within a like-minded community.”
“This is all so fascinating!”
“One word: Wow!”
“Grateful for your fun and inspiring course… and grateful to have met so many beautiful and inspiring women!”
“It was AWESOME! Thank you for inviting me into this great group of people.”
Is this Course Right for You?
While I would like to say “yes” to everyone, the truth is, this course may not be right for you. The best guidance I can give is to ask yourself, does this course seem intriguing, does it feel like it is calling you, in a positive way, towards growth, truth and the beauty of nature and its spirit side? Are you excited but maybe just a little bit tenuous around what you might find? Do you possess an openness and curiosity to travel to other realms using your mind and heart? All of these are good signs to say “yes!”
