We’ve lost connection
We’ve lost connection
We’ve lost connection with our ancestors and the wisdom of the old ones, on ways to tend to life and the land. We’ve missed out on their guidance on being our best selves, connected, resourced and in service to life. We’ve lost connection with the land and ways of honouring life.
We’ve inherited and live within broken cultures that breed disconnection and disharmony. We’ve lived with some very mistaken assumptions about life and our separateness from each other and other species.
For the Love of the Land is an eight week program to help you come back into connection.

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.
A gut feeling told me it was a good idea, and it was! 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.

So many of my threads of interest in the one beautifully held container with Lure - the land, uncolonising myself, ancestors, felt experience.
The guided meditations were the best I've ever taken part in, they took me to special places from my life and I was back there, in vivid, astonishing detail.
I feel more deeply connected to the little patch I'm living on and willing to sit and learn from it, giving back to it what I can.

I loved it all! I loved the 3 threads – earth connection, ancestry and Indigenous awareness / connection. I loved how none of it felt laboured, because we danced through these 3 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.
I have a five-step system to help you with this
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 need sustenance. Love and compassion are this nourishment. Compassion for ourselves, and compassion for each other, in all our diversity. Compassion for the state of the planet, and for what we’ve come to. It can be challenging to face the truth. It’s also the place of potential and renewal.
Air and Mountains
Air and Mountains
Crystallization and dissolution. Clear vision.
Together we explore our thoughts, beliefs and attitudes. On the mountain, the air reveals it all, bringing clarity. Issues of race and privilege, of entitlement and prejudice. 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
Community, connection, right relationship
As the streams flow down the mountain they come together. Embracing our fellow humans and all our kin. Relationship with Indigenous people. 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 fall into a circle of support and nourishment previously lost to us.
Earth and Forests
Earth and Forests
Ancestors and healing. Indigenous people. Right relationship.
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, will call us to be our best selves, and help us find our way back into connection. We explore what right relationship with Indigenous people might look like.
Spirit and Ocean
Spirit and Ocean
Return to source, to our oneness
The drop becomes the ocean and the ocean becomes the drop. Ocean of love. Returning once again to source, the source of our ancestors, to the source of our love, to the land, and to our place within the fabric of life.
Returning once again to the spiral of fire, air, the forest, earth and water, as we continue around the Spiral of Return
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.

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.

Lure has a beautiful way of holding space, allowing us to be authentic, to go deeper and transform. Highly recommend!
