Welcome back to season 2 of The Sharing Circle. Melissa shares a recent experience from her Shamanic Training weekend in Cornwall.

"The magick that can be found within a sacred woodland is a special kind of magick. A magick that secretly weaves its way around your bones; one breath at a time with two feet upon the soft, earthen ground.

Deeply inspired by Narnia as a child, these woodlands in Cornwall invoke an energy within me that longed to wander through the wooden wardrobe that sat in my childhood bedroom. Though that wardrobe did not contain an abundance of fur coats, nor did it lead to Narnia (much to my disappointment), it did contain within it a seed of a dream that had yet to germinate.

Years later, I would find myself stepping through the portal of my Shamanic training into a woodland that felt as though I had travelled to a different time, a different place, slightly separate from my own reality but also the same."
