About This Journey
No matter where in the world you descend from, song has been ceremonially carried as a gateway for prayer, connection to self, and communion with the divine. For many of us, the bridge to our sacred song has been silenced and forgotten. Through tending the flame of our song in ceremony, we rekindle the connection to our wisdom, power, ancestral medicine, and prayer. Our song is a birthright that we all carry.
In this workshop, we will explore ceremonial singing, sound alchemy, and engaging with our song as an instrument for prayer, griefwork, and healing. We will learn techniques to engage with the voice ceremonially that opens access to our inner landscapes. Together, we will gently and safely discover where hidden emotions, forgotten dreams, and powerful prayers live within. As this journey unfolds, we will experience giving voice to these places, and in so doing, create more resources to experience safety and healing.

About Your Guide
Keiley Joy is an animist weaver, trauma informed mentor, and ceremonial musician with a deep devotion to relieving the burden of colonial conditioning and recovering the spark of human potential through connection to ancestral medicine & the natural world.
For over a decade she has been apprenticing in North & South American indigenous traditions that draw a direct connection to the land and other than human kin as wisdom keepers.
Her apprenticeship with these traditions ignited a curiosity to meet her own ancestral lineage. This journey continuously blooms with her current practice that marries ceremonial song, reparenting, storytelling, astrology, ancestral healing, plant kinship, and womb wisdom to create a holistic ecosystem of healing and self discovery within her offerings.
She is a daughter of the fire & moon, devotee to childlike wonder & enchantment, protector of small adorable things like plants and insects, and a complete champion for humanity.
