Events

Please join Bird Woman for a heart centered and uplifting séance at Decatur Healing Arts Center. Guests are welcome to ask questions of the guides and to request the presence of deceased loved ones to communicate with, either humans or animals. Through connecting with Spirit, Bird Woman will share direct messages from the ancestors, using no tools besides her inherent ability as a Psychic Medium. 

Statement from Bird Woman:

"As an Evidential Medium I gather information that can be verified by those in attendance. This way we can all feel assured that the information I am channeling is accurate.

When channeling and speaking with deceased loved ones, I find that an immense amount of divine love comes in, creating a high vibration that all present can feel.

It is an honor and my greatest blessing to be able to share this work with others, animals and humans alike."

$44 per guest. Please register at https://www.decaturhealingarts.com/

I am so honored and excited to be sharing these gifts with you at Earthaven in Asheville, North Carolina this fall. I hope you can join us!

Workshops and ceremonies with Bird Woman are designed as interactive experiences meant to engage the senses, open the heart and mind to new possibilities and to allow the space to express ourselves freely and naturally.

Friday

7 - 9 pm- Channunpa / Sacred Pipe Prayer Ceremony- FREE TO ALL

All are invited to attend this prayer ceremony, for deepening our connection with Spirit and our communities. The Channunpa is the prayer carrier of the Lakota and is the heart of all of their ceremonies. Bird Woman has been a pipe carrier for many years and is honored to be able to share this special ceremony with the community. We hope you can join us for this special event and the start of a weekend of workshops with Bird Woman at Earthaven.

Saturday

10 am - 12 pm- Releasing Trauma Through Laughter  

Did you know that laughter has powerful healing properties for our physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing and for the health of our relationships? For this workshop we will share exercises for releasing anger, trauma and old patterns through laughter. You will be fascinated to learn how something as simple as laughter can have such a profound influence on our overall health and relationships. Laughter truly is a remarkable medicine!

3-5 pm – Conscious Dying and the After Life

Conscious dying is being aware, awake and accepting of what is happening at end of life and in the moment of one's death. The afterlife is a life that some people believe begins when you die, as in the continued existence of your consciousness or soul. For this workshop we will engage in creative exercises and share in discussions that address conscious dying and the afterlife. Please join us for this unique and inspirational event.  

 7 - 9 pm - Cacao Ceremony

In this ceremony we will invite the spirit of the cacao to help us in opening our hearts and bringing us to a state of harmony with our souls, in order to create the best reality possible for ourselves and our future world. Cacao is a wonderful facilitator of spiritual awakening and reflection, facilitating our transformation on a physical and mental level.

Sunday

10 am - 12 pm - Intro to Animal Communication

Join Bird Woman to explore the realm of animal communication and interspecies communication- a non-verbal, telepathic method for speaking with animals, plants and the environment, also known as intuitive communication. We are all given the ability to communicate with nature, it only needs to be reawakened. In this workshop we will engage in exercises to help us learn what it means and how to connect with animals, and all of nature, on a mystical level.

The cost of the Cacao Ceremony and Workshops are based on a Sliding Scale of  $25 - $60 per person per workshop or ceremony.

Did you know that laughter has powerful healing properties for our physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing and for the health of our relationships? For this workshop Bird Woman aka Rosemary will share exercises that can be used daily for healing, by releasing anger and increasing our inner joy through laughter.

Medical professionals and scientists now accept the importance of laughter as a healing and disease prevention modality. It is known to decrease stress hormones and increase immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease. Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals, which promote an overall sense of well-being and temporary pain relief. 

You will be fascinated to learn how something as simple as laughter can have such a profound influence on our overall health and relationships. Laughter truly is a remarkable medicine!

Our lives go through cycles of growth, harvest, death, and rebirth just as we see in nature. Autumn represents the harvest time of year, a time to acknowledge growth and expansion as a natural evolution of our organic being.
This ceremony is specially designed to create an enlightening sensory experience through calming activities that will take us through all of our senses and into our extrasensory perception, engaging us with inherent sacred tools that have been used for in ceremony by people all over the world for millennia. The senses were not only gifted to us a tools for interacting with the world on a practical manner but also to help us to have deeper spiritual experiences. When you engage your senses, you’re less likely to get stuck in your mind and you are better able to connect with your body. You can be more in the present moment.
The Autumn Equinox is about finding balance and manifesting abundance. This time of equal day and night is marked by the peak of harvest season, which can be interpreted as the physical harvest of food or the energetic harvest of the fruits of your spiritual labor.
For this ceremony we will offer gratitude for the fruits of our labor and shed what no longer serves us, allowing space to manifest our best selves and our greatest dreams.
We would love to have you join us for this inspiring all-sensory Autumn Equinox Manifestation Ceremony.

I hope you can join me for this unique ceremony at Decatur Healing Arts Center on Thursday, Sept. 21 from 7-8:30pm. Please register by visiting https://www.decaturhealingarts.com/events

Please join Bird Woman for a heart-stimulating Cacao Ceremony. Cacao is a wonderful facilitator of spiritual awakening and reflection, facilitating our transformation on a physical and mental level. In this ceremony we will invite the spirit of the cacao to help us in opening our hearts and bringing us to a state of harmony with our souls, in order to create the best reality possible for ourselves and our future world. 

For 1000’s of years Cacao ceremonies have been performed by the indigenous tribes of Central America. Mayan spiritual elders say that the Cacao Spirit was one of the most powerful deities in ancient Mayan cosmology. It was considered to be the ‘Food of the Gods’. Indigenous myth states that when the balance between humans and nature becomes threatened, cacao comes from the rainforest to open people’s hearts, returning the planet to a state of harmony.

We understand the importance of contributing to the cultures that bring us the sacred plant teachers we use to help us in so many ceremonies today. Therefore our raw cacao is sourced from a Guatemalan woman's collective. We find it especially important to support the women of Guatemala who have often been unacknowledged and under-served.

The event will be held outdoors so that we are best able to connect with nature and the elements to support us in this sacred journey. If rain is predicted we will hold the event indoors, it will not be cancelled. Spaces are limited so please pre-register by sending $25 to Rosemary Kimble through Venmo @Rosemary-Kimble or Paypal (as friends and family) to rosemarykimble@gmail.com You can learn more about Bird Woman aka Rosemary by visiting her website at www.visionsandreflections.com

We look forward to sharing sacred space with you. 

We welcome you to join our women’s spiritual retreat at gorgeous Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. We will spend healing time in natural places and support one another in intentional practices to bring us more fully into the versions of ourselves that we want to be.

I will be pouring a women's sweat lodge in Asheville on Sunday, September 4th starting at noon at Samasati Sanctuary in Weaverville (https://samasatisanctuary.org/). 
This is a ceremony that I was trained in for 8 years before sharing it openly with others a few years ago. It is a powerful and potent purification ceremony which can ignite healing and transformation.
Remember to bring a towel, change of clothes, your water bottle and a dish to share (for the community meal following the lodge) and a donation to offer for stones, wood and use of the land. Women should wear a dress or skirt and shirt with shoulders, chest and upper legs covered, as is traditional. 

If you have any questions or concerns you can contact me, Rosemary aka Bird Woman, at info@visionsandreflections.com
I hope you can join us.

Cacao and sound are two of the oldest modalities for healing on the planet. Both are gentle soothing facilitators of spiritual awakening and reflection, helping us clear energetic blockages and thus facilitating our transformation.

Please join facilitators @Rosemary Kimble aka Bird Woman (www.visionsandreflections.com ) and @Erika Bear Banwell (www.firehorsehealingarts.com), for a heart stimulating event.

In this ceremony we will each set our own intentions, inviting cacao and sound to co-facilitate in opening our hearts and bringing us to a state of harmony with our souls in order to create the best reality possible for ourselves and our future world.

For 1000’s of years Cacao ceremonies have been performed by the indigenous tribes of Central America. Mayan spiritual elders say that the Cacao Spirit was one of the most powerful deities in ancient Mayan cosmology. It was considered to be the ‘Food of the Gods’. Indigenous myth states that when the balance between humans and nature becomes threatened, cacao comes from the rainforest to open people’s hearts, returning the planet to a state of harmony.

Sound has been utilized in various cultures for thousands of years as a tool for healing. Whether through the use of mantras as with the Hindis, the Icaros (medicine melodies) of various Indigenous peoples from Central and South America, or Pythagoras' use of interval and frequency, these various techniques all have the same intention: to move us from a place of imbalance to a place of balance.

We understand the importance of contributing to the cultures that bring us the sacred plant teachers we use to help us in so many ceremonies today. Therefore our raw cacao is sourced from a Guatemalan woman's collective. We find it especially important to support the women of Guatemala who have often been unacknowledged and under served.

We hope you will join us for this uplifiting Cacao Sound Ceremony at Samasati Sanctuary. Saturday, Sept. 3, 2022, from 3-5pm. $20 at the door

Awakening Through Wild Nature Women’s Retreat

Samasati Sanctuary, Asheville, NC

Through nature we can best connect with our true selves. It is through this connection to ourselves and the earth that we are able to see our souls’ purpose more clearly and to easily live from a place of joy.

In this one day retreat we will focus on co-creating with nature to better be able to trust our intuitions, in order to be in harmony with our own true nature. We will work with the sacred cacao plant teacher to open our hearts to a deeper connection with ourselves and with Great Spirit. Through mirth and laughter, we will experience the joy that is meant for us all, by celebrating our most authentic selves. As community, our connection with other like hearted beings, will give us the support to be open to whatever creator has to offer us.

We cannot wait to share this sacred space with you, connecting with the earth and our own divinity. Join us at Samasati in Asheville this June.

Cost- $77 per woman- includes all activities, light breakfast and lunch, cacao ceremony and special gift. Accommodations and travel are the responsibility of attendees.

YOU deserve to be loved by YOU as much as anyone. We invite you to join us for a cacao ceremony in exploration of how to better love and care for ourselves.

So often we make wishes and send prayers for the ones we love, forgetting that we are just as important. To have self love is not to be self absorbed. It is taking care of yourself and is what spirit wants for you. In order to love others you must first love yourself. Because if you cannot love yourself you cannot properly know how to love others. 

We are all divine beings, deserving of self love and all that we wish for for ourselves. Cacao is an amazing facilitator for bringing in love. It opens the heart chakra, allowing us to invite love in on a deep soul level.

Do something loving for you! Join Adventures in Empowerment retreat leaders Rosemary and Krystalyn for a virtual cacao ceremony, Monday, March 28, 7-9pm est. We look forward to seeing there! 

Cost:

$25 Cacao Kit Provided

Why have people believed in fairies for hundreds of years? Are they even real? The answer remains to be seen but there is some compelling evidence to the possibility of their existence. Humans have befriended and called on them for help and in magic for eons. With so much reverence for these winged creatures, perhaps there is some truth to it. At least that is what I have always believed.

Join me for this exciting workshop where we will explore the beliefs in fairies, evidence of their existence and magical rituals used to call in the fairy realm.

Online Zoom Workshop

We are all born with intuition and a sixth sense. Our crystal palace helps give us access to it through the third eye and pineal gland. We possess the ability to communicate telepathically, foresee the future, heal with our hands or any number of “supernatural” powers. For some it comes easily from an early age. Others develop it over time. Even a life changing event can occur and grant access to psychic intuition and clairvoyance.

In this workshop we will explore exercises for remembering our sixth sense capabilities. Our workshop leader Rosemary, will help guide you in developing a deeper understanding that these gifts are not supernatural at all but are completely natural to everyone. We all have them inside of us, we just have to remember and be open to what we can be capable of through activating our crystal palace.

Online Workshop $10

A holiday decompression workshop to help us remember our blessings and find greater happiness through gratitude. Learning to appreciate our challenges allows us to recognize how they help us to grow and give us strength. This opens us up to a path where we can be at peace with whatever outcomes we encounter in life, something that many of the old cultures understood. In this workshop we will explore these concepts and take a look at how traditional cultures practice gratitude.

When we put gratitude before our busy progress driven lives, there-in lies the grace. Life is not always easy. But if we can recognize how kind the universe has been to us, rather than focusing on the negative, we can understand that grace surrounds us and we are able to see all of life’s lessons as blessings.

Do your kids love Harry Potter and wish they could go to Hogwarts school? Let them experience the next best thing through the Wonder and Wizardry Online Academy.

The Wonder and Wizardry Academy aims to engage children in becoming aware of their 6th sense gifts through their imagination. We all have the ability to talk to animals, heal and create change using energy as a tool. Imagine if we had all been taught how? We would be a lot better equipped to navigate life, especially in such changing times.  

Head Mistress, Ms. Rosemary, encourages children to use their imaginations to discover the unique abilities we all possess naturally. In this workshop kids will meet mystical creatures, learn about crystals, and explore the energy and space around them. Through using the imagination in interactive play and movement-based activities, children can begin to open up to their innate supernatural abilities.

Come join us for a fun filled Halloween day activity, sharing what the world of wonder and wizardry can be like!

Children are encouraged to wear their Halloween costumes to the event.

We will be talking about the healing energy of crystals and Ms. Rosemary asks that each child bring a favorite rock or crystal to share. Parents are encouraged to attend with their child as they may also find the exercises useful and fun to do together.

Ms. Rosemary has more than twenty years of experience working with children, including as a costumed character for birthday parties, in art programs and summer camps that she has directed, and in the after-care program of the Waldorf School. She feels it is important to guide children in positive thinking and the belief that anything is possible if they set their minds to it.

During a crisis would seem like the most inappropriate time to find humor in anything. But what if it actually could be the key to helping you stay sane? In this workshop we will look at why laughter truly is the best medicine. Together we will explore how to make ourselves laugh as a way to release stress and be able to come back into emotional balance. Please join us for an uplifting workshop designed to help us bring humor back into our lives. There really is no better time than now to laugh at life again!

We all have busy lives but it is so important to take time to connect with nature and doing so through the elements is a powerful way to achieve this connection. In this workshop I will share methods that can be incorporated into anyone’s life. We will explore ways for working with each element to bring health and well-being. Nature is meant to help us. It is our ally. It holds so much medicine. Together we will remember what it was like to live close to nature and then begin to reclaim our connection through simple practices.

Animal stewardship (connecting with and supporting wild and domestic animals) will be the basis for this class. Rosemary, aka Bird Woman, will share valuable information from her years of experience as a wildlife rehabber, animal communicator, and healer. She will cover such topics as- honoring the natural world, wildlife rescue, and rehabilitation, sacred work with feathers and bones, interspecies communication, and sacred activism. We invite you to join her in discussions and spiritual exercises addressing how to be the best ally to the animal kingdom.

Two hour workshop beginning at 11am CST

Have you ever thought about what your spirit animal might be? Perhaps you already found one but did you know that you can have many helper animals from the spirit realm? These can all guide us in our lives in numerous ways, from decision making to healing, using our intuition to working through issues.

In this workshop, Rosemary AKA Bird Woman will guide you in ways for better connecting with the natural world, in order to help you find your main spirit animal or additional spirit animal helpers. Through exercises, mindfulness, meditation, and other spiritual practices we will examine techniques for allowing yourself to open up to a deeper understanding of the animal kingdom. Thus, in turn, helping you to better communicate with the animals that have already been guiding you your whole life.
