My friend and colleague from our non-profit Circle of Ancestors, Heidi Guttmann wrote a recent blog post about the NBC series “Who Do You Think You Are?” about celebrities exploring their genealogy.

You can watch the first full-length episode featuring Sarah Jessica Parker on NBC.com.

Circle of Ancestors is an inter-cultural community that connects people with their own ancestral traditions through educational programs, experiential learning, ceremonies and other activities.

This reconnection heals and balances, encourages respect for differences and recognition of similarities, deepens community and environmental bonds and promotes peace.

My friend Maura Singer and I finished our Polish Ancestral Healing Project (PAHP)website this summer. Thanks again to my amazing cousin, Eric, who helped us put it together.

The Polish Ancestral Healing Project is a part of the non-profit organization, Circle of Ancestors.

The intention of the Polish Ancestral Healing Project is to educate, empower, inspire, and transform those who seek ancestral connection and healing. Our work reaches across religious and secular lines by tapping into our common earth-based spiritual/mystical roots, the sacred elemental energies of the earth and working with these elements as a source of healing.

Please visit our site to find out more about PAHP, see pictures of our ancestors and our trip to Poland, and to download copies of both of our Master’s theses.

Apela Colorado, my elder & mentor, recently came back from her travels with a message from spiritual elders in Central Asia. Circle of Ancestors sponsored an evening lecture with Dr. Colorado last November. We taped her talk and have posted part of it on youtube so the word can get out about the Sacred Fire ceremonies to take place this year on March 21st.
