Wayapa with Shane Venebles

In modern times, many of us have experienced a disconnection from our environment, our tribe, our food and our Spirit. This disconnection has created a void in our lives.

For over 60,000 years, First Nations peoples have thrived as the world's oldest, continuously living culture by embracing a harmonious coexistence with their environment.

Deep connection to the land, flora and fauna has sustained their way of life and fostered a profound understanding of ecological balance. Through this enduring relationship, they have honed their knowledge and wisdom, passing it down through generations.

Wayapa® offers a powerful combination of Earth mindfulness, narrative meditation, physical movements and environmental stewardship. By engaging in Wayapa®, we can rediscover our sense of belonging to the Earth and restore holistic wellbeing.

Through this practice, we re-establish a profound connection with our surroundings, finding harmony with nature and rekindling our bond with our tribe and Spirit.

Shane is a certified Wayapa® Wuurrk practitioner, cultural tour guide and Indigenous bush food specialist.  He loves the mutual respect for the Earth that Wayapa® fosters, with innate knowledge that we are not bigger than one - we are all the same system.
