In this very special two day workshop guest Karen Alexander will draw upon her 25 years experience researching, studying and drawing crop circles. Karen brings a thoughtful and introspective touch to researching the phenomenon.
Karen will show you first-hand how to draw the geometry expressed in the formations.
Geoff Fitzpatrick has been hosting sand mandala workshops for over 5 years. Using the traditional tools of the Tibetan Monks his emphasis is on vibration, meditation, cosmology and consciousness.

Experience the transformative power of 'letting go' with a deconstruction ritual
Discover the patterns embedded in the creative principle itself
Connect with your inner healing wisdom
Karen Alexander is a long time circles researcher who has for many years brought a thoughtful and introspective touch to researching the crop circles. A respected and influential speaker and writer, her work seamlessly fuses sacred art, spirituality, psychology and philosophy - the scholarly and the intuitive. Karen is perhaps best known as the writer behind the annually published Crop Circle Year Books (1999 - 2014) and Crop Circles: Signs, Wonders & Mysteries, (Arcturus 2006 & updated in 2009 & 2013)
Geoff Fitzpatrick has spent the past 15 years exploring the intersection of geometry, spirituality and psychology. Working with mandalas has opened him to the profound power geometry possesses to influence states of consciousness. The construction of sacred sand mandalas during Geoff's Mandalanature sessions opens people to a deeper aspect of themselves by blending creativity, geometry and mindfulness in a unique and special way. In addition to his studies at Trinity College and the Milltown Institute, Geoff is currently in the Grof Transpersonal Training program for certification in Holotropic Breathwork.
