  • The magic of immersive connection experiences with Looby Macnamara and Leona Johnson
    May 21 2024

    In this inspiring and enriching conversation Leona and Looby talk about the Model of The Eight Shields and how following the natural patterns of flow from daily and seasonal, to life stages and their corresponding energies, can create the optimum conditions for connection, healing and growth. Using this model powerful fields of connection and emergence can occur. They discuss how entering these environments where encouragement, authenticity, joy and deep connection are designed as part of the foundational premise, can completley reset our nervouse system and enable us to return to everyday life at home resourced with tools and the deeply embodied experience of healthy culture and community.

    They discuss highlights from the PEACE (Peace, Empowerment and Cultural Emergence) programme that they run together as well as the amazing Art of Mentoring training camps that they have been part of and the Nature Culture Connection camp where they will be co-facilitaing in one of the guilds this August.

    Is it possible to actually live the dream? Is it possible to be so in tune with the feelings in your body that you have another way of truly knowing? They believe so.

    It is difficult not to be swept up into the field of passion and the beauty of the energy of collaboration between Leona and Looby.

    Happy Listening.

I also help men overcome and heal from trauma, boarding school issues, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and live a happier and more fulfilled life.I am also an artist, a poet and a musician.I went to boarding school from ages 11-18. It was an exceptionally challenging time. I changed my name to Simon and then Ziggy Cross. I lost a friend to suicide, a teacher attempted to sexually abuse me and I tried to take my own life. On the surface I was a success. Underneath I was hurting.I then trained in International Business at universities in France and London. I worked for several Fortune 500 companies in Paris and London.In 1997, while in London, I started on an internal journey and started to study meditation and different self-healing paradigms.In 2000, I suffered burnout through a combination of my father passing, and leaving my long-term relationship. Essentially, I became homeless for a few months. I eventually left London to work in Africa helping volunteers.
