This workshops is based on the way that native people living close to the Earth use their perception—the consciousness that lies behind the physical senses—to engender a profoundly different way of being in the world.

Leaving behind your work and worries, enter into the magic realm where Spirit is communicating with you and you are able to perceive it. A deeply relaxing and rejuvenating experience that opens your eyes and your heart to a new way of being.

Ben Rayner was a professional skydiver who, after five years of international competition, suffered a severe spinal injury that left him in a wheelchair with little hope of ever walking again. This led him to look deeply at his life, his health, and the condition of his soul. He began to meditate regularly at this time. He returned to the skies a year and a half later, completing a total of 7000 skydives before retiring from the sport in 2002.

Since then he has received diplomas in massage and other natural healing therapies, and for 12 years he has been deeply involved in the spirituality of the Earth, receiving training, including survival skills, from native spiritual teachers of the American Indian tradition and the Maori in New Zealand.

Ben currently teaches nature and awareness courses in England, where he lives, and in other countries.

His message:
It’s time to realize our full potential as human beings.
Not tomorrow.
Now.
