“My mission is to uplift, inspire and empower people to awaken more fully, reconnect with Mother Earth and walk in balance with All That Is.”
LinDel Sandlin
REWRITE: Many great sages and scientists have stated in one way or another that all matter is energy. Time and Space are constructs of the human ego-mind and exist within our waking world or the beta state of brainwaves.
At Full Moon Yoga and Shamanic Sound Healing events, you are invited to take a break from your “crazy busy” life to rest your body, mind and spirit and contemplate the teachings of each full moon. You will be guided through gentle restorative or yin yoga poses by a highly experienced yoga teacher while LinDel plays various sound instruments to help bring your whole being into alignment. Combining the two modalities deepens your experience and opens a pathway for healing. As you melt into the final savasana pose, LinDel will lead the group through a shamanic drumming journey to connect within, with Mother Earth and Grandmother Moon.

Group Experiences
Sacred Cacao and Drum Circle
Join us for a shamanic cacao celebration with a participatory drum circle! In this heart-opening event, we will be sipping organic, 100% cacao – the grandmother of chocolate. Considered a sacred medicine by the Maya, tonight’s ceremonial-grade cacao is sourced from traditional farmers in Guatemala. Cacao contains about 1/10th the amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee; it also naturally contains tryptophan and magnesium, which calm the body and mind. You will leave feeling uplifted and more aware, yet, relaxed and more grounded.
While we're sipping our hot cacao (sweetened with honey if you wish), LinDel will share some of the history of cacao and its health benefits and will give you a brief intro to the sacred Mayan Day "calendar". To help you feel the effects of the cacao more deeply, we will also be doing a mix of group drumming and simple tai chi movements. Then you will come into stillness, either seated or lying on a yoga mat, while LinDel guides you on a shamanic drumming journey into your "inner garden" and the sacred space of your own precious Heart.

Schedule for LIVE EVENTS
Live events are held at different 2 locations in Indianapolis. Each venue has its own registration link.
Full Moon Yoga and Shamanic Sound Healing Events:
November Full Beaver Supermoon
In November, industrious beavers are busy gathering last bits of food and repairing their lodges so they can “hunker down” for the colder, darker months ahead. Because these master architects live on the water, they are also associated with emotions and dreamtime.
Join us during the Full Beaver Supermoon while we consider how to fortify ourselves within and stay "high and dry" during these emotionally-charged times. Together let us dream a better world into existence!
December Full Long Nights Supermoon
The moon cycle during the darkest days of Winter, was called the Long Nights Moon by the Mohicans and other tribes on northern Turtle Island. Many indigenous cultures around the world and modern religions, too, find ways to celebrate the Light within the darkness. Let us use these longest nights of the year to pause and nurture our spiritual well-being.
We invite you to take a break from the modern “holi-daze” and come to our Full Long Nights Moon Yoga & Shamanic Sound Healing event. Let us embrace what we can of the darkness and nurture the Light that always, ALWAYS returns.

Sunday, December 14
4:30-6:30pm
The Playful Soul, 1001 E. 86th Street (Nora area), Indianapolis
In this heart-opening event, we will be sipping organic, 100% cacao sourced from traditional Mayan farmers. To feel the healing effects of the cacao more deeply, we will also do group drumming and simple movements.
We will be gathering on the Mayan day of 13 Imox which honors water and is represented by dolphins. This highly intuitive day is also influenced by Toj, a day for offering gratitude to all who give us life - especially Sacred Water.
Come with a healing intention from your Heart. Feel free to bring your own drum or rattle (extras will be on hand), as well as a bottle of water and a sleep mask for the shamanic drumming journey.
