We are often taught to see ourselves as separate from the living world — yet this separation is an illusion. As we grow into our fullness as human beings, we come into resonance with the shared intelligence of Life. It is natural to be open to conversation with Nature and other species.
In this unique two-hour webinar-workshop, the Ocean Voices team — Intuitive Interspecies Communicators collaborating with marine scientists and researchers — will share how this groundbreaking initiative began and how it is transforming the way we listen to and engage with the Ocean.
During this experience, you’ll:
• Hear first-hand how Ocean Voices bridges science and intuitive communication.
• Learn the principles of Intuitive Interspecies Communication (IIC).
•. Experience the H.E.A.R.T. method (Heart Energy Achieving Real Transformation).
•. Be gently guided in a direct, heart-based communication with our Ocean kin.
Led by Dr. Lynne Shannon, Principal Researcher and head of the Marine Sustainability Lab at the University of Cape Town, the team also includes Wynter Worsthorne, Eleni Gkikakis, and Christine Noble Seller. Their work has been shared at the Global Biodiversity Forum in Davos and within Nature’s Council, inspiring new ways of knowing and collaborating across species. This will be a special meeting of science and spirit as we listen to the Ocean together.
Come ready to slow down, listen deeply, and embrace your fully human self — stepping into that wider conversation and relationship with Ocean, grounded in respect, reciprocity, and wonder. Register today to take your place in this unfolding dialogue with the living world.
