Transformative Healing Dolls

04/06/2026

https://erikaclevel.substack.com/p/we-live-in-a-time-of-turmoil An article about the insights I have been having while preparing for my free on-line talk at Morbid Anatomy, Monday, April 27th. What is it about times of turmoil, especially around the turns of centuries, that causes us to turn to spirituality, even the paranormal? What can we learn from those who faced similar times, at the turns of the 18th and 19th centuries?

but is it really new?

What better to take care of yourself psychically and emotionally in these trying times than to make your own healing doll! See linktree for more about my two June in-person healing doll workshops.

An interesting thing happened last night. I started a new book of cartoons (? Not sure what to call them) I was planning on having a meeting with ma and and an animal guide. I thought maybe a horse? But he turned into our dog, Eddie. And he had some useful advice. It was fun!

DuPont circle Farmers market today. The first cut flowers! I couldn’t resist these beautiful sunny tulips (to go along with our long lived roses!) and these gorgeous apples and of course walnuts.

Sighting of the Buddhist monks at the end of their 2,300 mile Walk to Peace. This was along Embassy Row, just after their event at the National Cathedral. So moving both to see them and also all the people who came to witness them. As they passed, people spontaneously joined the march. I’m really glad I got this short glimpse of them. This was a larger group of monks than the original ten or so. I guess other monks joined in for this final ceremony. And I didn’t see Aloka. He must have been in a support car!

This showed up today. Hmmm?

These showed up this week, “Green Man holds up a Mirror to you,” and “I Dream of Summer in Winter.”
Sometimes consecutive images relate to each other and sometimes they have no connection. We are anticipating a big snow storm here in DC. Yet, below ground seeds are making ready, sap remains below the earth. All activity is below ground. The workshop this weekend is a no go and now I’m glad because I probably would have had to cancel it anyway because of the snow. Stay safe and warm, all!

For local followers: I’m considering going ahead with the workshop this weekend if two more participants sign up! I’d need to know right away. Deep Winter Visioning with doll making and journaling! Focus on your vision for the start of the year in my doll-filled studio and in a small and intimate environment. This Sunday, January 25- 10:30-4:30. More information in my linktree in bio. You can respond to this post with questions. Otherwise I am still planning to offer an in person workshop late Spring, so stay tuned!

A small corner of my 2026 intuitive visioning collage for this year. I really don’t know what these are about until I write about them. I’ve been doing this since 2020. AND-as this didn’t post through my newsletter site. Sunday the 18th is the last day to register for my Winter Visioning in person one day workshop on Sunday, January 25th. More info on my Linktree in Instagram. It will take place at my Georgetown, DC studio. I’d love to have you there!
