Receive Guidance for Your Role in Healing Mother Earth
Over three sessions you will be immersed in the ancient wisdom that the 13 Grandmothers bring at this critical time.

The Grandmothers are here to help us usher in a new era that calls for unity, reconciliation and compassion. Their engaged activism on pressing social and environmental concerns as well as their ancestral connection with the Earth will help guide our way.
Dearest friends,
In 2004, I prayed for a vision that my highest service would be offered in the years ahead. What I received was something I could not have imagined: Spirit told me that I would be entrusted to bring together some of “her most precious jewels” into a single basket.Those jewels are the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers – a council of elders from around the world that came together with great beauty and remarkable synchronicities. Through connecting with these elders, I discovered that this Council had been the subject of many ancient prophecies, all of which agree that they are to play a prominent role in global healing at this time.
For the last years, we have traveled to each others’ homelands for collective rituals that are committed to healing work, as well as to visit with leaders such as the Dalai Lama. Everywhere we have gone, profound, magical, amazing transformations have happened.
I have become clear that this circle is divinely guided, that the lineages they offer are a key for collective transformation and that they are giving us a profound medicine for our times. That’s why I have committed my entire life to advancing their work.
When we did our first virtual Grandmothers Solstice call with The Shift Network, 20,000 people responded from around the world – a remarkable outpouring of love, prayer and blessing. Now, we are working to bring more of their wisdom to people who cannot travel to a live circle and who want to go deeper than a book or DVD. That’s why all the Grandmothers are excited by this virtual gathering, which offers them a way to share their wisdom and support our collective work, so that together we can all contribute to the healing and growth for our planet.
I cannot promise you exactly what you will learn or what they will teach. So often, their guidance is immediate, spontaneous, and in the moment. So the “curriculum” will be looser than you might expect for a virtual offering. But what I’ve seen is that the spontaneous healings that come from entering into a space of reverence and prayer together are life-changing and well worth it.
I thus invite you join us in this virtual circle where we will share wisdom and deepen our journey together. Mother Earth is crying out for healing and together we can create some powerful openings for a renewed world.I hope you can join us!

Session 1: Forgiving Our Histories
Tuesday, October 4th
Featuring: Grandmothers Agnes Baker Pilgrim, Rita Long Visitor Holy Dance, Tsering Dolma Gyaltong
In this session, the Grandmothers will share how we must start with forgiveness, which is the heart of healing. If we can forgive our histories, we can move forward with a clear heart and mind and be of service to others who are suffering.“Our mind is what we have to be really happy within. If everyone really did a true spiritual practice, which develops into a positive mind, the world would not be in the dire situation we find it in today.”
Grandmother Tsering Dolma Gyaltong
“We are here to let the beauty, love and joy continue so when you walk through this journey, the earth is the better for it. We can give back love, generosity and forgiveness when we ’see’ rightly. Yesterday was history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is our gift! What part will you play today?!”
Grandmother Agnes Baker Pilgrim
“Our spiritual ways, our Sun Dance ways are encouraging prayer and bringing a lot of people back. A lot of young boys and girls are coming into the Sun Dance and are learning to reconnect with the source of their being.”
Rita Long Visitor Holy Dance
Session 2: Finding Balance in the Chaos
Wednesday, October 5th
Featuring: Grandmothers Mona Polacca, Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance, Margaret Behan
In this session, the Grandmothers will offer guidance on how we can find balance and harmony in the midst of the chaos. During these times of upheaval, we can rely on ancient practices and ways to maintain balance. We can rest in harmony with our surroundings. When we are in harmony, we create a refuge of balance for others.“…Reconciliation – we have that already, our Lakota people. We try our best, like I said, we use the pipe to pray and we have to have peace in our hearts as well as with others. So what has happened in the past, we can’t redo it, we can’t bring it back; we have to move forward to carry that peace and carry it on so that what you do with that land, make it plentiful, maybe feed the homeless, help the people and have that peace in your heart.”
Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance
Leadership is the highest spiritual calling, and as leaders, the starting point begins with you – managing your whole self – by utilizing the spirit that lies within your identity and the strength of your culture.”
Grandmother Mona Polacca
My father would tell me how the Creator loved us so much that he gave us a star and the star was the fire, so we are the Star People. He also told me that the Eagle is really an angel, and I should always pray to him. These gifts from the Creator have helped me to be here now.”
Grandmother Margaret Behan
Session 3: Embodying Our Visions
Thursday, October 6th
Featuring: Grandmothers Flordemayo, Julieta Casimiro , Rita Pitka Blumenstein, Maria Alice Campos Freire and Ambassador Jyoti
In the final session with the Grandmothers, they will share their insights on how we can embody and make manifest our visions for a harmonious, sustainable and peaceful planet. Once we catch the vision, it is our task to complete it, to carry through with the gift of inspiration from Creator. It is our task to walk it, to bring it down to earth, and together with our friends and relations, we can manifest goodness in the world.

We need to keep hope alive. It is like a never-ending story. In my village there is violence. What is happening in my village is happening in the world. At this moment, we need our faith. We need to make that faith stronger so we can continue doing our spiritual work and continue helping others.”
Grandmother Julieta Casimiro
“Oh, Great Spirit! Blow your winds over planet Earth, drive away these clouds of forgetfulness that darken the minds and hearts of mankind. With my knees on Earth, I ask, Oh! Great Spirit, cure the sickness of mankind, the forgetfulness of Your truth. Oh! Sacred Fire, Divine Essence, shine brightly Your flame of clarity, awaken mankind’s memory.”
Grandmother Maria Alice Campos Freire
“I had a vision the ancestors told us to heal the world. When we heal ourselves, we also heal our ancestors, our grandmothers, our grandfathers, and our children. When we heal ourselves, we also heal mother earth.”

In 2004, thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers from all four corners, moved by their concern for our planet, came together at a historic gathering, where they decided to form an alliance: The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers. This is their story. Four years in-the-making and shot on location in the Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North America, and at a private meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, For the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when these wise women unite. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change now, before it’s too late. This film documents their unparalleled journey and timely perspectives on ancient wisdom.
The Grandmother oil comes from the Grandmother plant, which Mayan elders believe to be one of the original plants that taught all the other plants their medicine. When we need teaching and guidance, we think of elders and wisdom, and the Grandmother plant can help us come to that wisdom. Use the oil to help release stress and stuck energy and promote healing, peace and relaxation.
