Gaia Spirit Sticks

            Another aspect of Synchronia is Gaia Spirit Sticks: walking sticks, staffs, & wands decorated with natural materials: leather, feathers, shells, etc. (see pictures) Energetically each decoration adds its spirit to a Spirit Stick & honors Mother Earth. Indigenous peoples have used medicine, talking, healing, dancing, and meditation Sticks for 1000's of years.

            Living to Marty is an adventurous journey. Nia affords Marty an inspired roadmap when considering options & life choices. Nia has transformed her life. She feels more joy, lives fuller, senses serenity & is more mindful of the moment.
