When you spoke about ceremonies to help heal the trauma I felt a brightening of the fire within me. Because there is almost nothing  left of the healing practices of my people I search for those beautiful truths of who we can be within and through connection to nature. You were able to speak in a way anyone can experience the story from the prospective of our native people. There was a beauty that was very impactful for me. A small glimpse of what was lost and continues to be dishonored. Thank you so much for sharing it with me.  – Heidi, Orangevale

Thank you again for this powerful work Gemma Benton.  I’m also an end-of-life Doula with our local hospice. Last night I sat vigil with someone getting ready to pass, someone I’d not known before.  I was lead to guide him in a journey with his family, all his ancestors going way back, his friends, and people and places he has known and met in this life time – to be with anything else that might be left to let go of, his connection with all that is.  It was an honor, so sacred, to honor the leaving of his body in this way, to bridge between the worlds in this way. I’m humbled.  Thank you. All my relations. – Sandy
 

In the Healing US Workshop I took, Gemma strengthened my understanding of what it means to be an active participant in this unprecedented time we are living. With Gemma’s knowledge, her compassion, the stories she shared, and the guidance she gave on using the Tarot, I am able to connect the dots for this new normal in a way far different than I would have done before the workshop. Gemma is down-to-earth, professional, and compassionate, and her respect for all sentient beings set the tone for a very beneficial–and beautiful–experience. Thank you, Gemma!”
