can impact your...
Mental Clarity
As we step into healing practices, awareness of impeding factors in our lives can bring a sense of clear knowing. This can help us become clear in our thinking. We can begin to work through the mental fog, weaving wisdom into our thoughts, words, and actions. We can see what has conditioned us and often left us dissatisfied with the status quo. This clarity creates spaciousness between our experience and our circumstances.
Stress Reduction
By learning to see through our conditioning and tune into what our bodies and hearts have to say we can embody ways of being that are life affirming. And with practice this reduces stress, so instead of feeling reactivity and burnout, we can expand our skills to face life with more resilience and renewal.
Aliveness & Freedom
When we learn to access the present moment and develop a mindful approach to daily life, our tasks of work, play, and our experiences in relationship enliven! Our sensory awareness begins to expand and we naturally begin to be more aware of and sensitive to the goodness that is around us. By connecting with elements found easily in the natural world, a sense of aliveness returns alongside our interconnectedness. This often provides a sense of expanded freedom.
Spiritual Growth
Regardless of whether we are secular or religious within a specific belief system, our healing can support our inner sense of wellness and exploration in meaningful ways. Often we naturally find more connection to that which carries a sense of wonder or awe in this life. We can find it in nature, or through a lense of science, with God, in the Universe, or the imaginal field & quantum realms. All of this is found in the unseen aspects of the physical world. Connecting to the inherent power within each of us reminds us of our place in the cosmos and it is much more than we previously have been led to believe. This work of healing, returning to wholeness, happens in its own unique pace and brings us to our growth edge, which is the only position from which we actually grow.
Physical Wellness
The work of healing (returning to our state of wholeness) is an embodiment practice. It helps us be-in-body in a new (and ancient) way. These practices are thousands of years old and still supporting humankind. Modern research is proving that practices of mindfulness can help us reduce blood pressure as well as navigate pain and illness with agency and alleviate multiple forms of suffering.
Emotional Intelligence
With guidance, we can become more aware and clearly get to know the unique nature of our own thought habits and how they impact our mood. We gain capacity to better navigate challenging emotions to find compassion and peace in our relationship to ourself and others.
Shamanic Counseling
What is it?
This isn't therapy in a traditional sense. This isn't life coaching either. It is a sacred relationship where one on the shamanic path, steeped in nature-based wisdom and practice, assists another to step into a relationship with spirit.
The shamanic practitioner helps the client re-establish their natural connection, so they are able to access spiritual practice from a non-dogmatic, self-paced, yet held practicum of methods.
The Shamanic counselor facilitates the client to tap into the unseen powers of the natural world and helps to guide the client through their own unique path of self-understanding and self-transformation. Sacred guide, sacred witness, spiritual companion.
This pathway consists of the shamanic practitioner offering meditations, wisdom (nature-focused) practices, and guided journeys into the imaginal realm where helping spirits are there to meet each client as required for their highest good. No two clients travel the same path and no two sessions offers a set or expected outcome. Rather, we journey with the client's intention at the heart and as the guidepost for each step along the path. If the client takes time to connect to their own spirit guides, the shamanic counselor's constellation of guides (helping spirits) will lend their grace to support the process or reconnection.
In life, there are some experiences we have that are simply, outside of the box of ordinary reality. These are sometimes brought on by choice and careful deliberation. One example might be choosing to attend a retreat- be it a silent meditation retreat or a plant medicine retreat- or even when working with a psychedelic medicine practitioner in a clinical setting or traditional/indigenous ritual. Other times, one can access this altered state through intentional meditation with a facilitated sound journey. There are other times when extraordinary circumstances and traumatic events cause us to view our life from a new perspective, thus creating an altered state of reality. These states could come about because of illness, a life changing diagnosis, death or loss of loved ones, etc. These altered states of reality, no matter how they arrive can be incredible gifts to us finding a deeper truth and aligning with our greater purpose.
When one goes through a journey of this nature, finding the right support can be extremely pivotal and nourishing. It is good to have a guide who knows how to hold such an experience with presence; someone who can hold us in that vulnerable time in a sacred and reverent way for our highest good. This is what we specialize in at Elderoot. This is our mission and the heart of our work.

"Marnie Rehn's Guided Meditation this weekend was so helpful. I've been meditating for years, but in current times I've felt the need for more centering and added this experience. I'm so glad I did! Practicing bringing mindfulness to activities, not just meditation, truly teaches how to bring more calm into everyday activities. We really need these skills now more than ever."

About Marnie's Work...
Marnie wants most to help people remember who they really are.
We are energetic and sentient beings filled with blessings and a wellspring of potential. But today's modern life has left too many of us feeling isolated and anxious, stressed, and oftentimes lethargic or ill with little time or energy to do anything about it.
Marnie utilizes practices of insight and wisdom that she has integrated into her own life from years of commitment to the practices of mindfulness, buddhism, animism, shamanism, and plant medicine journeys abroad. Her work is shared in secular ways so as to meet clients with resonance where they are in the human experience.
Marnie is currently living and working on the ancestral lands of the Puebloan Peoples, and the unceded territories of the Ute Peoples in SW Colorado, and is building a relationship of reverence with land that she and her husband are stewarding there. Together they build Elderoot, their home sanctuary. It is sacred land, home to the helping spirits who guide Marnie and teacher her animately about her work.
Her offerings are made in-person and online. She can travel to you for private offerings and journeys, and she hosts retreats and workshops on the land. She also works in video calls for remote sessions, and offers 1:1 mentoring, and facilitates group sessions (councils).
Marnie also holds two Plant Dietas in the Shipibo-Konibo lineage. She is committed to learning from her teachers within this lineage. She is also a host for a global Buddhist Sangha and the teachers there. Through this work she is in regular study as the Course Guide in the Deep Dharma program there.
