There is a dance that ‘merges' us with the world of spirit. Standing within the experience of trance and polarity, we 
surrender through the dance and the liminal space, the threshold of the 'nagual world' that presents itself. Liminal space is where all transformation begins. Through the connection to this space, shapeshifting is achieved via an inherent ability within the liminal, to transform or to transmute oneself energetically, through movement meditation, shamanic journey, experiencing a cellular shift - metamorphosing into creature, being, or simply our own potential as healer, poet, artisan, singer, writer, dancer, thespian.
This is the sacred space where the old world is able to fall apart, and a bigger world is revealed.
When we become aware of our own liminality, we can find it hard to know how to navigate this transition, whatever the journey is. We often miss the real potential of ‘in-between’ places as in the central space of the mandorla which requires deep immersion – so we can become numb, or we can panic ourselves into inappropriate actions or flee with fear of the dreaded unknown. There is a quality of ambiguity or disorientation that occurs within our rites, when dancers have not yet begun the transition to the status or the shape they will hold when the rite is complete. Moving within this liminal space, one awaits to see and to witness what will transpire. This requires trust not just in ourselves and the dancer, but in the connection to that space and its healing properties. There is no knowing what will occur, but holding a strong intention and trusting in the process will allow us to merge with the unknown in a way that serves our greater purpose. Once experienced and the transition made clear, we can move forward with confidence into our future.
Caroline and Elisabeth offer the 'Hollow Bone' way of holding space for individuals and groups with an awareness of shamanism being the most ancient of spiritual practice's which date back to over 100,000 years. Here you will find how drumming and repetitive dance movements open portals to the spirit world, drawing spirit in, and opening us up to receive new and profound information.
During our time together we will work on the mask of the thespian.
It is a good idea to take part in the Online Shamanic Journey course, levels 1&2 or a workshop that includes journeying. Or at least one shamanic dance workshop with Caroline.
Schloss Glarisegg is beautifully situated between forest, meadows, a brook with small waterfall and the shores of Lake 
Constance in the community of Steckborn (Switzerland). A place to fall in love, powerfully beautiful!

The combination of the Ancient Shamanic Practice, Ritual Theater, Movement Medicine,Arts and crafts, connection with Nature, Vision Quest, Storytelling, Healing, Caroline's life experience and other adventurous, magical ingredients makes this work a unique Medicine for healing, creation, finding/adding soul in all I am and do, in my role as a mother, partner, in my work as an artist. Caroline, as a teacher, never stands in the way of the teachings and this is the gift from the Hollow Bone Work. Thank you, Lies Van Hee.
Hollow Bone opened me to my own magical nature. I was invited deep into unknown territory within myself and found strength and courage to journey in dark mystery to find treasures. Song. Dance. Drumming. Deep sharing. Connection with the deep greenness of nature. My work there has a tender place in my heart. The artwork I created there still has a place in my home... calling me to remember my own gentle power. Catherine Wright
My two journeys with Hollow Bone Medicine have been both very healing and empowering. I could really dive in my medicine and gather my tools, my allies, receive guidance and meet and transform the inner obstacles and resistances that kept me from opening my wings. The venue deep in nature, the dance, the arts and crafts and creative moments and the journeying were an delicious blend to explore my deep nature and connection to soul. Caroline Carey and Ben Cole, and the assistants, were such good guides on this journey. The medicine is still working through me 3 years later ! Thank you Virginie Rastello
"It's been an amazing experience to work with Caroline and Ben. Anyone who chooses to work with them will be in awe not only with what they will gain but also what they will unburden themselves with. Fantastic!” Fabian Ray
My presence in the Hollow Bone workshop was a subtle, gentle, very deep dive into my inner universe, where I met my guides, my inner characters, richness of my own medicine, my very unique and personal connections with Nature and Spirit. All that in strong, kind, wise holding of Caroline and the Dance, and support of a circle of others she/we created by sharings of what we discovered in our explorations. Thank you for this amazing and healing experience which reveberates into my daily life in many beautiful ways. Katerina Stejskalova

The Body Oracle
Become the oracle of your own wisdom.
Orákulum těla
Staň se orákulem své vlastní moudrosti.
PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC
Who do we become when we give ourselves permission to speak out? What happens when the wisdom within us comes forth with such power that it cannot be ignored? Can we trust ourselves enough to seek guidance from within and to bring this knowing into the world?
When we have experienced repeated suffering and challenges, let-downs and dysfunction, we can end up retreating into our ‘shells’. Bound by shame, our trust in ourselves ebbs away and we become fearful of our own power. In this place, our fire and passion is quashed and our ability to speak out becomes restricted – even painful.
During this workshop, we will dance with the oracle of our body, heart and mind to free ourselves from the binds that hold us. We will follow the body’s guidance into the archives of our personal history, dancing through lingering traumas and dysfunction, clearing a channel to the life-force – the visible face of Spirit – that is both within and around us.
To support each dancer in this work, Caroline will hold the space and guide step-by-step to help connect us with our bodies and our center's as we journey through the veils of any resistance or restriction. We will arrive in a place of deep trance, a place from which we can gather the knowledge needed to support our present and future life. We will dance, share our wisdom and write. We will speak what has previously been unspeakable and find the medicine sounds from within. In this way, we will clear away the residues of old stories, unblock our voices and ultimately find our way back to the freedom of our true selves.
Staň se orákulem své vlastní moudrosti.
Kým se staneme, když sami sobě dáme svolení promluvit? Co se stane, když se moudrost v našem nitru projeví s takovou silou, že ji již nemůžeme ignorovat? Jsme schopni si natolik důvěřovat, abychom se obrátili na vnitřní vedení a vnesli to, co víme, do světa?
Pokud jsme opakovaně zažívali utrpení a výzvy, zklamání a dysfunkci, můžeme skončit schovaní ve své “ulitě”. Svázáni studem si přestaneme důvěřovat a začneme se bát vlastní síly. V takovém místě je náš oheň a naše vášeň potlačena a naše schopnost promluvit je - až bolestivě - omezena.
Na workshopu budeme tančit s orákulem svého těla, srdce a mysli, abychom se osvobodili z pout, která nás svazují. Budeme následovat vedení svého těla do archívu osobní historie, protančíme se přetrvávajícími traumaty a dysfunkcí, budeme čistit řečiště životní síly - viditelnou tvář Ducha, který je v nás i kolem nás.
Caroline podpoří každého tanečníka při této práci držením prostoru a provázením, které nám pomůže se krok za krokem propojit se svým tělem a středem při cestě skrz jakoukoli rezistenci či omezení. Dojdeme do místa hlubokého transu, místa, kde můžeme nabýt vědomostí, potřebných pro náš přítomný a budoucí život. Budeme tančit, sdílet svou moudrost a psát. Budeme mluvit o tom, o čem se dříve mluvit nesmělo, a nacházet léčivé zvuky ve vlastním nitru. Tak budeme odklízet zbytky starých příběhů, uvolňovat svůj hlas, a nakonec tak najdeme cestu ke svobodě svého pravého já.
Caroline offers Middle Earth Medicine which includes creativity, the shamanic journey and the dance of soul retrieval. It is at the route of her own spiritual journey and strong connection to animism. She is a facilitator for 20 years, a mother and a grandmother.
Caroline se u svých učitelů učila práci se šamanskými cestami, které nyní používá při tanci i léčeních, při hledání částí ztracené duše a při procesu Mandorly. Šamanské cesty představují i základ její vlastní cesty, charakterizované silným propojením s animismem a cestou šamana.

Magic Of Mandorla Intensive
Mandorla is the ancient symbol for wholeness and balance.
During this workshop, we will use the tools of dance, creativity, movement meditation and constellation-work to work with the Magic of the Mandorla. You will have the opportunity to explore the conflict of meeting your core-wounds in relationship to your aspirations, to discover authentic and integrated empowerment. Then, with the support of the group and a constellation process held and guided by Caroline and the drum beat, you will enter the space of the Mandorla, allowing it to work its magic upon you, bringing the riches of wisdom and new insights.
Knowing our purpose and our medicine and how we might wish to offer it into the world means deeply acknowledging all that we are. In order to fully embrace our purpose, we must know our shadow, we must know the dreamer, we must befriend the inevitable death of all things. It is a way to embrace and accept who we are as a complete human being, who knows him/her self at a core level.
As human beings, we can exist on multiple planes of being; the one that we are usually most aware of, however, is the material world. By its nature, the material world is a place of duality – a place of opposites that we often experience as being in conflict with one another. Examples include heaven and earth, light and dark, masculine and feminine, loyalty and betrayal, to name but a few. The polarity between these opposites creates a fundamental tension at an evolutionary level that has the potential to be either profoundly destructive or powerfully generative and creative. The evidence of the destructive consequences of this tension lies all around us in the terrible scourges of war, inequality and conflict within and between individuals, groups and societies.
The key to transforming the destructive consequences of conflict into life-affirming outcomes lies in how we relate to the tension between opposites. When we can hold the tension within ourselves, bearing the pain, beauty and terror that this brings, we bring the two opposing elements together, creating a space in which the split between the two can be resolved. We call this space the 'mandorla' – a word derived from 'almond' in Italian, which refers to the almond shape created when two circles overlap. The mandorla also known as the 'Vesica Piscis' is the sacred space of our soul work; when we stand in this place, we have the ability to transform what once was a curse into powerful medicine for the soul. Its energy is that of the Father Mother Principle in the Divine Union, the Mother of all Forms and the Yin and Yang that has been known to us for decades.

The Wheel Of Souls Return.
A journey with the dreamer, the innocent and the rebel the first three archetypes of our medicine wheel. The gathering of our dreams, accepting our innocence and finding true freedom in the world of our own offering. Here we begin the journey to truly discover ourselves and why we are here.
Accepting the dance of polarity from the center of the wheel (mandorla) and the witness of our own destiny, we inherently know the contract that we made with spirit. Our dance will take us into the deep crevices, where memory has been forgotten, where the foundations of our life have rocked and where we complied to the rules of others.
Breaking out into 'the untamed forest' we will be seduced with the aromas and sensations of the natural world, beckoning us into its midst and awakening all of our senses. We become alive, awake and more aware of the path ahead.
A dance, journey and movement experience with Caroline
Venue: Taiji klubi (Taiji club)
Address: Pärnu mnt 102, Tallinn 11312
Times: Friday 19.00 - 21.30 Saturday 10.30 –18.00 Sunday 10.00 – 16.30
Cost: Early Bird €185 until 3rd of April 2019 and Full price €225 from 4th of April.
Caroline will guide you through the medium of ecstatic dance, shamanic journeys, meditations and enquiries, to discover your own medicine man, medicine woman and weave this information into the creation of your own Oracle. Once the wisdom becomes apparent and with time in nature to journey deeper by yourself, connecting with your own spirit guides, you will begin to find the song that wishes to be sung through you and will weave that and all of the information gathered into your own medicine bag.
A medicine bag is an item that spiritually represents the person who wears it and is carried for guidance, healing and protection. It contains objects that represent spiritual and healing experiences throughout our lives. This is a place to give totems a home close to your heart.
Making our own medicine bag is a process of illumination,
to craft our own medicine container or oracle and understand the potency of what it is and what it carries. Creating this Oracle also gives us the opportunity to weave into it the shamans songs, sung from our heart but not in the ordinary way of singing. Our shifted state of consciousness in the 'singing sense' allow the songs to sing us.
There is no need in this work to be able to sing in the normal ways. Traditionally, it is important to create the medicine bag yourself, finding its reflection and its song inside you and in the face you show to the world.
The workshop includes ecstatic trance dance, time in nature, sharings, craft work and meditations.
For men and women any age or experience.

Tanz, schamanisches Reisen & Kreativität
Ein Workshop mit Caroline Carey (UK), Seminarhaus Lindenhof
Mittelerde, der ältere Name unserer Kultur, hält für uns die Heilung und Magie für unsere Verletzungen bereit, wenn wir uns unseren eigenen kreativen Lieder hingeben und das tanzen was aus den Tiefen unserer Knochen aufsteigt, während unsere Zellen die ältesten Weisen unserer eigenen Poesie rufen, so finden wir heraus wer wir sind und wie es ist, dass wir wirklich begreifen warum wir hier sind…..Caroline Carey

DANCE, JOURNEY & CREATIVITY
Workshop with Caroline Carey at Lindenhof Seminar Center,
This middle earth, the older name of our culture, holds for us the healing & magic of our own societies wounds, as we lean into the creative songs that wish to be made known & dance what ever emerges from the depths of our bones, as the cells cry out the most ancient of our own poetry, we find out who we are and how it is, that we really know why we are here ...... Caroline Carey
An introduction and deep exploration of ecstatic dance, shamanic journey and the reclaiming of our primal and instinctual nature. If you feel called to deepen your understanding of what it means to be spiritually awake, to access a deeper meaning of life and to walk the path of your own truth, then please join us for this empowering and liberating experience.
You will gain new insights, tools to use in your daily life and the opportunity to share with others, your story, your dance and your own poetic-creative inheritance.
Where imagination and creation make everything possible, where a weaving of the known & the unknown, reality & transcendence exist together, living in unity in the same garden
Caroline is a workshop facilitator, a speaker and a published writer, she works internationally, sharing her experiences and strengths to many. She is devoted to the work she offers in supporting people to find freedom through dance and creativity. She supports an understanding of the underlying and unconscious patterns that tend to rule and limit our lives, offering an understanding of our challenges, our suffering and our addictions. The aim is to reclaim a stronger sense of happiness, creative connection, soulfulness and inner-sense.
During this gathering we will dance, move in meditation, create and explore the depths of listening and journey to the beat of the drum.
Our workshop will take place at the lovely Seminarhaus Lindenhof, Lindenhof 1

An exploration of soul purpose, using the Middle Earth Medicine Wheel, archetypes, tools, dwellings, resources and tools.
Every purpose or new beginning starts with Spirit and pre-birth with its dreaming and then follows the wheel to the innocent stage where the imagination begins to vision in what is possible to create. From innocent to rebel, where we need to let go of old structures and immerse ourselves in the untamed forest to release ourselves and explore the true nature of who we are, leading us to become an apprentice to our own work what ever that might be, whether it is a particular project, body of work, even relationship, being helped and guided by our own repetitive patterns, by spirit allies and guardians.
The wheel continues to be our guide, through adulthood to the artisan and the thespian, creating and acting from that place of creativity, parenting those qualities into being. Knowing and maturing our purpose, becoming the sovereign of our own magestic garden, stepping into the responsibility needed for the task set out to us and those we must serve, accepting the humility of our own sacred fool, that we might relinquish the hold that our ego has over us, trusting in a power greater than ourselves, aspiring to be the elder of our own making, finally standing, staff in hand with our own wise elder. Surrendered to the acceptance of who we are, knowing ourselves, and honoring our ego as the hands of the soul. We step into each of these gateways, gathering the tools, resourcing ourselves, accepting and surrendering to who we are and where our soul must dwell at this time.
Exploring our purpose means the acceptance of our life experience, unraveling some of its life long stories and what we have made them to mean. Our purpose is born through us and the challenges we meet along the way are divinely there to sculpt us and shape us into who we are and what we are here to offer, yet how we view our own stories might need to make way for something entirely new, even more revealing and much more inline with our potential.
Middle Earth Medicine takes us on nine stages of soul work, integrating soul through personal development, soul-retrieval, creativity and ecstatic dance.
This particular medicine wheel not only supports your personal growth, but offers deeply healing experiences and meditations to open the heart and re-member a broken innocence. We learn to use the tools that can physically put us in touch with our purpose on this planet, guides that will support us on the journey and the very particular archetypal quality we need to embrace. We journey with each of the archetypes and their dwelling places, time of life, tools and resources, to establish the current position of soul and purpose.
Without careful observance and enquiry into knowing where we are in the cycle of our souls offering, it is almost impossible to know what stage we are at and what we need to embody before we can fully move on to the next stage. We can do this with the support of our community, listening to their experiences and learning and growing together. Often we can find ourselves trying to move on too quickly to the next stage before fully engaging with the last, thus meeting with the same challenges over and over again without fulfillment. We learn, one step at a time, patiently unfolding what is truly intended for us.
During this syllabus, Caroline will guide you through the wheel, using movement meditations, outdoor work, self reflection, sharing and creativity. She will share her own story of the Wheels discovery and the maps that have led to the Middle Earth Medicine path. No matter what your experience, no matter what your age or position in life, this Medicine Wheel may be able to support you on a journey of discovery.
In applying for this training, you will need to have the experience of a movement practice, for a minimum of two years, engaging with topics such as embodiment, repetition and journeying. As an apprentice to the Leadership path, you will need to have an understanding of the Middle Earth Medicine Wheel. The syllabus is on the web page here https://middleearthmedicine.com/middle-earth-syllabus/
If interested in taking part in our training, please work with the training syllabus and courses https://middleearthmedicine.com/middle-earth-syllabus/ Pre-requisites for the training modules are The Oracle Of Medicine, Mandorla Intensive and the Vision Walk.
Those accepted onto the training and during its process will be expected to:
