The loss of the forests, the oceans, the world as we know it, along with the increasing pressures of our daily lives, work, family, and relationships.
It's too easy to lose ourselves amongst it all
You're told that your anxiety and distress are personal issues, failings even. Yet we were never meant to carry these alone
We've lost the ways that nourish us
We no longer live in harmony with the earth. The celebrations of who are and what we bring to our communities from our early years have mostly disappeared. The wisdom of the ancestors to call on in hard times are rarely felt.
For the Love of the land Journey is an eight week journey back into connection, to our hearts, the land, and our wise ancestors.
It's about coming home to yourself, nourished and supported, so that you can keep showing up for what you love.
You're invited to join me in this exploration, as we reweave these connections, explore new directions, and share with kindred spirits.
For the Love of the Land is an eight to help you find your way back to yourself, your ancestors, and the living world around you. change
This gathering is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with the wisdom already living within and around you.

We cycle through the elements and the natural landscapes of the earth in my signature system, The Spiral of Return.
The Spiral of Return
The Spiral of Return
Fire
Fire
Ignition, the flame of love and compassion
To start the journey we need to acknowledge where we are. We start with heart nourishment, compassion and courage to face the truth.
Air and Mountains
Air and Mountains
Crystallization and dissolution. Clear vision.
We explore our thoughts, beliefs and attitudes. On the mountain, the air reveals it all, bringing clarity. We can more clearly see what is really true for us, and what is inherited from our cultures and our families.
Water and Rivers
Water and Rivers
Emotions and feeling, allowing the flow
It’s through our awakened feeling that we connect with nature, with our non-human kin, and with other humans. As we expand our sphere of relationships we return to belonging.
Earth and Forests
Earth and Forests
Ancestors and healing, respectful relationships
We connect with the earth, and with our wise ancestors. So many of us have lost these connections, ones that were once so natural to us. Our wise ancestors hold the key to our belonging; they will guide us, call us to be our best selves, and help us find our way back into connection.
Spirit and Ocean
Spirit and Ocean
Return to source, to our oneness
This is where it all comes together.
Returning once again to the spiral of fire, air, the forest, earth and water, as we continue around the Spiral of Return

Thank you for a really wonderful course. I came into it feeling like this was a last throw of the dice to try and find some personal peace.
I am so much more positive right now, and feeling more grounded and connected to Earth in general.
My inner voice and intuition is getting louder and stronger all the time. The more I listen to it the more grounded I feel.

I loved it all! I loved the three threads – earth connection, ancestry and Indigenous awareness / connection. I loved how none of it felt laboured, because we danced through these three topics.
I found It very soothing, grounding, nourishing. It felt like a soft landing place, a kind place. Lure is very good at creating a safe space where you feel able to say what you want to, but remain really mindful of the impact of your words.
About Lure
About Lure
Hi, my name is Lure Wishes.
I was born on Dhunghutti Country on the mid-north coast of New South Wales in Australia, a town with a large Aboriginal population, and am of mostly Irish ancestry.
I've had a calling to the land and to healing for many years, and to nature for my whole life. I've lived and worked with Aboriginal people throughout Australia, and in particular in central Australia and the Kimberley in the far north-west of Western Australia.
I’m deeply grateful for the kindness, generosity and welcome I have received from Aboriginal people along the way.
This work is the culmination of a lifetime of work and experiences, of the ways we can reweave our connection with all of life, to meet the challenges so abundant in our world today.
My training is in education, transpersonal counseling, breathwork, and heart and energy work. My experience includes wilderness guiding, adult and youth education, Aboriginal education, community development, project management and tourism.
I pay my respects to the Darug and Gundungurra people on the land on which I live, and acknowledge the Elders, past, present and emerging.

For those who love and feel the world deeply, the beauty and the pain of it
The loss of the forests, the oceans and the world as we know it.
Add in the increasing pressures of daily life amongst the noise and the chaos
It's too easy to lose ourselves amongst it all
You're told that your anxiety and distress for all you are carrying is a personal issue, a failing even
Yet we were never meant to carry this alone
We live in extraordinary times, a time of grief, of loss of the beauty of the natural world, the increasing challenges of living day to day
Our culture has abandoned us
We've lost the ways of living, in harmoiny with the earth, with the support of our communities, where our gifts and presence our welcomed by our communities, and celebrated for who are and what we bring to our communities
We've lost the ways that nourish us
The living connections with our wise ancestors, with the land we live on, and with each other
that's how we meet these harsh challenegs
Also a time of possibility, when the fixed ways are unravelling
For the Love of the land is not about fixing you
It's about remembering, remembering who we are, coming home to ourselves, and rooting down, finding that nourishment and support that sustains us through the tough times, that helps I find direction
Connecting with the land again, with our ancestors again and with the wider spheres of relationship of life
and of course each other
And beyond all else, come home to yourselves, nouriushed and supported, so that you can keep showing up for what you love.
We each carry gifts that are needed by our communities
Let's celebrate that together
You're invited to join me in this exploration, as we reweave these connections, explore new directions, so you can take your place in the world
the pain and the beauty of the world. adding in the weight of having to meet the demands of everyday life.
Connecting with the land again, with our ancestors again and with the wider spheres of relationship of life
You feel this world deeply ...
You feel this world deeply ...
Your great cry of grief for the forests, the oceans, for the future your children deserve is powerful. As is the tenderness of your hands and heart for the people and places you love.
You have gifts the world needs, and a longing to use them well.
You care fiercely for your family, your community, and the living earth, and you long to find that place where that love and your gifts meet the need of the world.
You already love this world deeply. This work is about learning to be sustained by that love, rather than depleted by it.

Lure has a gift for holding space; for allowing grief but also helping us find our way back to joy. I found the space supportive, safe, and enlivening.
