Healing Spirits of the Yukon Oracle: Magdaluz Bonilla Residency in Adventureversity

This deck of cards can serve as an oracle, as ideas/questions that may trigger group reflections as well. Each card contains the energy of an essence from the Yukon territory, associated with it there is a paragraph and a question arising from the essence of the flower, element, mushroom… In this way, we will be able to recognize and relate to them, as well as use their particular characteristics to open veins of knowledge, generate and nourish curiosity, and understand ourselves better. It is the creation of an imaginary of healing that, through experience, allows for the delivery of messages that lead to profound reflection and contact with the essences.

The Re-imagining Education Conference FANZINE: The Inside Story

This fanzine is built with the collective gardening and the harvest of the last 3 years from attendees, speakers, volunteers, panelists, and organizers.

We had in mind that the conference has inspired people to share poetry, drawings, notes, ideas, inspiring and profound phrases, songs; we found so
much beauty that we wanted to take the time to create this fanzine by hand. We made it in this format because it gives us the freedom to link different forms of expression.

There are many things; we couldn’t include everything. We apologize in advance if we did not include you in this compilation.

The REC conference is offered in the spirit of the gift, we believe in generosity, love and kindness and we are open to receiving gifts in return.
