Some signs of spring.🌱

12/08/2025

I often have people ask me if they can "pick my brain" or if I can teach them a specific thing. I know, right now especially, this is because things are tight and people need more income. However, it denigrates my work as a spirit worker. I cannot distill years of training and personal experience or the complexity of the work I do into, say, a 90-minute class and then expect it to be useful, correct or ethically sound. As my guides have told me, my energetic signature is attached to the work of my students so shoddy or unethical work reflects on me as a teacher and as a person who walks unseen realms. Likewise, with my own teachers and students. And other people who teach and do this work.

How is spirit work incredibly complicated? Today I did ancestral work for a client. This included moving multiple sets of people to the ancestral realms after mitigating the reasons why they were stuck here. This included curse removal, entity removal, land clearing and reversing a contract with evil forces. I also had to clear the client. I used my psychopomp, curse breaking, negotiating, land clearing skills, and more, along with those of my spirit helpers. It wasn't easy or pleasant, though it's extremely gratifying work. After the session I had to clear myself. Total work time: 3+ hours.

Yesterday's client was similar but not as involved or as horrific.

My point is that this work is extremely complex and nuanced. It takes a lot of skill that's built over years of work. It takes a cool head and, often, a strong stomach (I see some absolutely horrific things). It's also embedded in a cosmology, a whole way of looking at both the mundane world and the Otherworlds. This is why I run months-long programs and not short classes and why I can't just teach someone one thing.

The Red Berry and the Thorn: A Class on Folklore-based Protections for Winter

Wednesday, Dec 3, 2025 7:00 – 9:00pm EST via Zoom
$45

In broader European folklore, we are in the dark time of year. It’s a time to incubate dreams, rest and enjoy the coziness of the hearth. It’s also a time of heightened spirit activity. Our ancestors knew this and we can find lots of great advice in European folklore and traditions. Knowing and keeping our ancestral traditions is incredibly important. It gives us a feeling of belonging which we are often lacking. Knowing where and who we belong to keeps us from appropriating other cultures and it keeps the Ancestors happy, too!

This is an online class via Zoom and will be recorded. We’ll talk about some of these protections, many of which I use, and why things are this way at this time.

The silliness of squirrels is something that brings me so much joy and connection.

I normally don't promote a lot of stuff. I have been asked to promote this program, as a former student. It's a great program for anyone who wants to learn to work with their energy body, whether you are a regular person or a super-woo practitioner. I use the stuff I learned in class All. The. Time. I'm returning for a refresher this year since it's been about 6 years since the first time I took it. Langston is a great teacher, too!

This is a great opportunity to join Langston Kahn and people like you from around the world in Energy Body Mastery: Restoring Your Life’s Balance and Vitality, a live, online, 7-week course beginning February 9th. It’s time to reclaim our stolen attention, restore our energy and gain the foundational skills necessary to live a life of authenticity and purpose and work across difference to create collective change. Join Langston and discover a way that offers long lasting results and gives you the tools to create systems for collective care along the way. Rather than work from the outside in and relying solely on the mind like many psychological frameworks- this process will guide you in creating profoundly effective transformation from the outside in. You will learn the foundational skills for grounding, connecting to the mystery of life, creating healthy intelligent boundaries and how to support the selves stuck in old choices we made to survive in releasing that old patterning and reclaiming the life force trapped there. I invite you to join this collective journey of cultivating a liberated energy body, releasing oppressive patterning you have internalized and finding the freedom to live what has heart and meaning for you.
