​
Y Ö R Ü K finding the hearth, is a journey of embodied teachings to weave your home and surroundings into a practice of authentic creativity, crafting the change we want to see in the world.
​
This course will offer a deep journey into your own inner mythology as a way of bringing life to the true gifts carried within. The journey will cultivate a place of nourishment and inspiration empowering you find a renewed sense of radiance to plough your hearth grounds in order to participate in the great transformation of the collective field.
Society is at a threshold of great change and deepening into our inner guidance and ourselves as part of a sacred ecology, will cultivate the true leadership, craftsmanship and courage needed to navigate the great turning.
Y Ö R Ü K finding the hearth, is a rekindling of our innate connection to the mystery, and the vital part this forms as part of reuniting ourselves as part of nature and all realms of existence.
The teachings will follow the arc of the seasons guiding you through a series of practices from Samhain to Spring Equinox. At the beginning of the journey you will receive a specially created hearth almanac as a guide to the practices with the invitation to imbue the pages throughout the modules with the wisdom of your hands, for it to become like a talisman for the finding of your hearth.
​
HOW WE JOURNEY
The work is made up of 9 journeys
Each journey will work with the deep intuition of our senses by combining experimental, practical, ceremonial and alchemical explorations. In between the journeys there will be invitations to work with the hearth almanac to develop personal practices of crafting and connecting to nature in your surroundings.
Throughout the cycle of the course, you will craft your own part of the cosmic household. A process of making and listening, caring and visioning, together weaving your spirit and gifts with the collective.
​
THE PRACTICES
​
The personal field – internal fire
Home hearth weekends and study groups will support you to cultivate a sense of sacred ground and hearth within your home and surroundings guiding you to develop self-practices that provide an energetic root system for the growth of your personal mythic space. These weekends and modules will include circle work, ritual, ceremony, and the initiation of self led practices. Tending to this hearth through these sessions you will awaken yourself as a creative vessel, nourishing the space needed to grow inward and find strength in the inner intuitive waters. These intuitive practices will grow into the collective through study groups that support the cultivation of a personal creative project that will be further nourished through a one to one session of personalised guidance. Together this project will delve into the personal journey within the collective, supporting you to develop the magical and creative tools needed to find a voice and a creative expression that unravels the mystery of your personal myth to meet that of the collective.

The collective field | collective fire
The collective field - collective fire
Throughout the course we will meet in circle and shared immersive experiences, together forming a nomadic household. These sessions will support you to experience the nourishment of being held by the village, and the value of one's essential role within the collective body, how these roles can shift and change, and how the embodiment of the collective is shaped and influences by the cosmic household. Teachings will support the tending needed to feel that by nurturing ourselves we are automatically nurturing each other, and the power that this has for a wider vision of change. The shared sessions will include experiential lectures, meditative and creative vision work and ways of coming together in conversation and in silence.
The Pilgrimage
The final part of the journey is an opportunity to develop a pilgrimage a personal and collective ceremony developed from the visions and experiences of the course. This pilgrimage will form a ritual piece that serves as a call to reconnect to ourselves as part of nature and as a creative force of change.
IS THIS FOR YOU?
This 6 month training is for those compelled to transform and remember who we are – what our purpose and service in this life is. It is for anyone who would like to come into a deeper connection to the totality of being, through a creative practice. This space is for beings who wish to work deeply on both a personal and collective level, for beings who wish to come together in shared practice, in circle, in ceremony who want to travel inside mysteries rooted in the magic of our collective bone memory, to dream within the web of the collective psyche, to craft rituals with the ancestral memory held within the palms of our hands, and within the deep collective psyche of the land. To travel to sacred land, to honor and celebrate the home in the body, the soul and the household - to meet ourselves as a vital part of nature. It is a calling to all those sensing that life is connected to the web of all realms and wish to be in service to that purpose and the collective care of the planet and each other.
You do not need to have have particular experience, or consider yourself to be an artist, to join this course.

Journeying with Fourthland and our circle was a profound and life-changing experience. Through their tender, attentive, magical curation, I felt deep self-transformation and experienced wonderful relational resonances and creative spiritual growth. I alchemised inner barriers that enabled my creative spirit to awaken. I now feel that I have a mythical harmonic divine landscape woven around me, and pockets full of paint and paintbrushes, stars and seeds, that are enabling me to live in beautiful reality

"I was struck by how carefully considered every word and action was on the yoruk. There seemed to be so much effort and care put into everything, it flowed so seamlessly and really felt like slipping into a magical realm. The ritual spaces and circles that were held stirred some kind of ancient memory inside me - Thank you. The oscillation between extremely profound and extremely playful moments was a wonder to experience and a great lesson for life! "
