Jen Hudziec - Ancient Pathways

PUERTO RICO WOMEN'S RETREAT 2025!!!!
Who is up for the second year of this fabulous experience?
Last year's retreat was POWERFUL.
With a balance of joy, tears, connection, and restoration a group of women wove their personal journeys together with the beautiful culture of the Island of Enchantment.

I am looking for the next group to step forward to experience ritual, meditation, healing nourishment, adventure, and rejuvenation during this uniquely curated retreat.
Details coming soon ~ Let me know if you are interested by commenting below!

What does it look like to be called upon by your ancestors?

A synchronicity of events that cannot be denied.
A dream.
A burning in your heart.

Rage. Grief. Shame.

A whisper on the wind.
A soft tear dropping down your cheek.
A sense of deep and complicated love.

When our people call to us it can manifest in a myriad of ways.
Often, if we pay attention, it is subtlety wrapped in longing.
A longing for us to come home.
A place for us to belong.
Among those who birthed us over thousands of years.

Join me to explore Ancestral Healing during this free online talk with others who are feeling the call or hearing the whisper...

The Online Ritualist Circles that I offer are ALWAYS open for new people! Every month offers a new topic, questions for reflection, home based rituals, and more. Ranging from FREE to $12/month, your spiritual practice will benefit from prompts at your fingertips. Here are a few examples of what we have explored in the past...

July 2024 Embodiment & Grounding
Question for reflection: What does it feel like when you are “out of your body?” Track the fine details so when this happens again, you will be quick to realize it and utilize your tools to course correct.

Ritual prompt: Place yourself in a comfortable sitting position with both feet flat on the ground and legs uncrossed. Take a few deep breaths and using the pads of your fingers, begin to tap on yourself starting with your feet. Tap your toes, the tops and bottoms of your feet and up to your ankles. As you tap, you are holding the intention of activating and waking up your bones; the deep Mineral element that inspires the qualities of steadfastness, sustainability, and embodiment. Tap all the way up your legs and the entire length and breadth of your body to the very crown of your head. Notice how you feel as your bones resonate the intention of your attention.

May 2024 Spring & The Green Man
Excerpt from Jen's monthly message: The green man teaches us that we cannot “go it alone.” We are more potent, creative, loving, and fulfilled when we engage in symbiotic relationships that call in the spirits of the microbe, the bee, the mountain, and the tree. We allow ourselves to re-wild our hearts and feel the greatness of being in communion rather than stuck in our individualism. This is synergy. This is the reminder of the Green Man.

Question for reflection: What areas of your life do you find synergy in? Do you have synergy in your partnership, work environment, or friendships? What do you accomplish when you are in a synergistic flow?

The heat of the summer is upon us in New Hampshire with gardens in full bloom and berries popping everywhere! The temperature here has been oppressive at times and it is no wonder I woke the other morning with a mind wandering into the month of November!

November.
Cool crisp air, mauve skies, and the turning of the season to winter. It is the perfect time to gather with like minded woman for ritual, restoration, and connection. Hence, the Maine Women’s Weekend Retreat this November has been born! The twin retreat to my Women’s Puerto Rico Retreat (details about this also coming soon) will require sweaters, cups of warm tea, and fire places aglow!

Announcing my latest endeavor:
THE ANCIENT PATHWAYS SCHOOL OF
FIRE WALKING & RITUAL ARTS !

I am thrilled to take the next step as a Fire Walk Facilitator to become a Fire Walk Instructor. The upgrade to an Instructor enables me to train those who feel the call to become a facilitator of fire walks, arrow breaks, rebar bends, and glass walks. I am honored to pass along these rituals as part of the lineage of the Sundoor School of Firewalking.

It is unbelievable that I have been led in this direction. From the moment I was picked up hitchhiking on the San Juan Islands in Washington State twenty five years ago and whisked away to a permaculture farm where the community happened to be fire walking that night, my adventure and love affair with fire began.

I never dreamt that all these years later I would be facilitating fire walks and its accompanying rituals. Deeply fearful of public speaking, leadership, and ritual responsibility, it floors me that I was drawn to train as a facilitator. I had no intention of leading fire walks, I just really loved the mentor I had been apprenticing with for years prior. By the end of the training, I was changed. Determined to practice my skills right away and not let fear take root again, a small group of friends joined me as my first fire walking guinea pigs (to whom I am deeply indebted) and I never looked back.

Since 2015 I have led countless fire walks and have added my own spin to the transformative rituals that are part of the Sundoor legacy. Now, it is time to pass these skills along so YOU can add your own touch and bring these rituals to your communities.

The first Ancient Pathways School of Fire Walking & Ritual Arts (APSF) training is scheduled for this October. Registration is open and my home and the land here that has seen many of you transformed will host you. Please support this next step by sharing October’s training far and wide.

I cannot wait to meet you around the flames!!

Something fabulous is igniting...
Details emerging soon!

This year I have been working with the energy of San Pedro, Saint Peter.
Yes. Me.
And a Catholic Male Saint.
No resistance here, nope. So, the only choice of course is to get to know him.
I have learned to appreciate the mysticism and metaphorical nature of the saints and see them as another aspect within an animistic world view. I had no prior relationship with Peter except hearing about him in church as a kid, but when he came to me in a reading (Thank You Michael Therese McQueen) I felt drawn to his energy as a fisherman in the sea of consciousness.
"With gratitude for such bounty, I go fishing" is one message from this saint and he inspires me to be thankful, remember that life is full of opportunity, and that action is a necessary catalyst to feed oneself on all levels.
He also is referred to as "the rock" and it just so happens that 2024 is a Mineral year (Dagara): A year of stones and bones.
Even Peter is connected elementally!
His energy is one of stability and he reminds me that stability is built upon solid foundations. As I reflect on the foundations I have built in my life, I have to ask where more support is needed or what stones need to be replaced so that stability can flourish. He kindly and gently shows me that stability is not a fixed point, but a constant balancing act of tending to what holds us up.
As my relationship with Peter continues to develop I am continually amazed with who shows up when. Not just in the human world, but especially in the wide world of animistic relationships.
Me and a Catholic fisherman saint.
I am never short of being amazed and amused.

Spring cleanse: Releasing Energetic Cords ~ free online ritual — Jen Hudziec Ancient Pathways Spring is a time of rebirth, renewal, and regeneration. To truly embody these qualities, we need to have space for them in our hearts and minds. Often we are hold on to things that unconsciously weigh on us and prevent us from being able to experience a sense of lightness and rebirth. The ritual of

I really enjoy offering free events when I can and this spring cleansing ritual is one that we all can benefit from. Our spiritual hygiene is imperative and sometimes it is easy to slip away from tending to energetic build up. The intentionality of "releasing energetic cords" is to differentiate from the feel of "cutting energetic cords" as releasing holds the vibe of conscious presence. We are not slashing or cutting these tendrils from a place that can perpetuate more entanglement; rather, we step forward from a place of compassionate letting go so we can be empowered and free.

Ancestral Lineage Healing is a gentle framework developed by Daniel Foor of the Ancestral Medicine Organization for facilitating the healing of our ancestors of blood and bone. This ritual process, also referred to as Ancestral Lineage Repair, creates healthy and viable relationships with the vibrant ancestors who have gone before us, while working to heal inter-generational patterns and cultural wounding. The repair process allows us to embody the blessings of our complicated family history while receiving the support and wisdom from the collective of our people.

Join Jen Hudziec, Certified Ancestral Repair Practitioner, as she discusses the context, framework, and benefits of engaging in Ancestral Lineage Repair. This Zoom meeting is free and open to the public.

It’s been a year since the release of Ancestral Healing: A Guided Journal for Observations, Reflections, and Connections With Your Ancestors and the revised addition is NOW LIVE!

I have been working diligently to fix all the little issues that have plagued my consciousness since its first release. With more journaling space, inspirational quotes, and additional prompts, this journal will support the documentative journey with your people.

I am releasing four versions of the same journal so you can choose a cover that speaks to you AND if you are working specifically with independent lineages, you will be able to delineate between lines with a unique cover for each.

For all my dear empaths out there...
Your ability is ancient.
As I was reading some pre-history this morning I came across a story of a 1.8 million year old fossil of a Homo Erectus whose skull indicated that all but one tooth was missing from his head. Determined by the way his tooth sockets had been reabsorbed into his jaw, he had been almost entirely toothless for the last years of his life.
Without teeth how could he have survived the challenge of eating raw meat?
Perhaps the meat could have been mashed with stone tools or maybe his diet turned to berries and soft bone marrow.
The most likely scenario is that someone close to him chewed his food and then gave it to him for sustenance.
Every meal.
Every day.
Until he died.
So if you ever wonder where your ability to empathize has come from, look back a million plus years and know that sympathy has a long, long history.
