Dreaming your DNA - Opening your Potential
The Extraordinary Vessels
I am inviting you on a 10 month deep dive into your 'temple body' the energetic container that is spun and created by your Extraordinary Vessels.
These ancient vessels hold the dreaming of your DNA both inherited and from the places you were before you incarnated in this world.
“I am in love with the imagery that comes with the deep imaginal realms and guided meditations that you create, they are so good…. your choice of language and words, your creativity and crafting, it feels really juicy and alive, its wonderful!”
Charlotte Church, Singer, Activist and Founder of the Dreaming
Exploring the Extraordinary "Ancestral" Vessels
Within Chinese Medicine these are a truly remarkable set of pathways (meridians or vessels). I first came across them over 12 years ago as part of Creative Kinesiology training I was on – they immediately spoke to me in such a way that I needed to understand more about these vessels.
Since I met them I have been on a continuing dive to learn more and to understand some of the ancient knowledge they hold for us, for our design, and for us opening to the spark of potential that is within each of us. I fully acknowledge that each time I meet them in clinic, teaching them to students or feel their holding in my body I learn something new.
I cannot wait to introduce them to you or to help deepen your relationship with them.
These pathways or vessels are truly amazing, beginning to be formed whilst we are in utero, they hold the key to the ‘dreaming’ of our prenatal life energy and hold the depth and magic of the ancestry that we hold in our body. They are huge reservoirs bringing energy and regulation to the 12 Meridians, they form and shape so much of our lives, carrying within them the codes for our body as temple, rooted and aligned between Heaven and Earth, between star and soil.
Here is a short video (full disclosure, very home made, very unedited, very ad hoc and made for social media) to introduce the course
The beauty of these vessels and the deep patterning they hold for us will unfold as we journey deeply each month.
We will be uncovering the themes that are central to our lives and that have shaped who we are. We will learn how to use these primordial energies to bring us more into our being so we may place our feet more firmly on our paths.
What is included?
- Ritual Circle Opening for everyone
- 8 live sessions, 1 for each vessel, you can choose to enrol in the evening or morning class. These are recorded

"This course and its content communicates to the deepest aspects of my being. Slowly, I feel how it transforms me in subtle, yet profound ways. It’s like the change is happening “beneath the surface”, like the cells are re-programming themselves into something new, something that is more me. I feel clearer, stronger, and more in contact with the magical aspects of my life.
I don’t know how ChaNan does it really. How she manages to teach and guide the group in such a warm, easy-going, yet deeply holding way. She mixes mystery and ancient knowledge with concrete practices and information that can be woven in to the modern ways of living.
I am so very thankful for this journey."
Pamela, New Mexico
I was not quite clear what type of journey I was embarking on when joining "Dreaming Your DNA" but the pull to do so was undeniable. The experience thus far has been profound, exciting and revealing. The course brings clearing, clarity and fresh perspectives on living. The 8 Extraordinary Vessels is a knowledge that I was not aware of and it is contributing to my life in such a positive way, bringing change that I have wanted, deepening my relationship to self, my work and living life as a whole. Being within an international group of participants has also enriched the experience. ChaNan is a wonderful teacher, guide and friend: her knowledge, presence and humanness offer a safe place for our refreshed inner selves to be revealed and acknowledged.
