On Sunday afternoon I was one of several volunteers who worked at Little Woo’s XoX Temple in the Healing Garden at the Commercial Drive Car-Free Festival.
The Healing Garden included a couple dozen small tents, each offering diverse, natural healing modalities. What I noticed immediately was that in each tent, a festival visitor was being attended to by one or more healing facilitators. People were not simply curious; they were engaged in the healing process. There certainly were curious people, those milling around and between the tents, not yet ready or willing to take advantage of the healing opportunities. Some would eventually engage, while others wandered back out toward the entertainment, choosing to put their attention on the external environment.
At the XoX Temple, we offered an amazingly simple, yet profound healing ceremony allowing participants an opportunity to connect with the 
important relationships in their lives (mother/father/friend/lover). Through each connection, the invitation is given to embrace all that is good and loving in each relationship, and also to let go of all that has been experienced as unpleasant. Had I not participated and witnessed the profound healing effects take place in less than 10 minutes, I would have felt skeptical about the value in the ceremony. Instead, what I saw and felt was Divine transformation. It was obvious people left the tent considerably different, more serene and filled with light and hope than when they entered only minutes before.
This was a humbling and awe inspiring experience for me and I am grateful for having the opportunity to be a part of it. Thank you to Little Woo for inviting me to be a part of what transpired on Sunday.
