Glenda Schmidt

In my twenties I had a routine yoga practice. When my two daughters were preschool, we did kids yoga. (I still have the book we used 33 years ago)

Then my nursing career came to the forefront of my focus.

Always wanting to share knowledge, I taught many different classes, birthing, sibling, CPR, newborn, pediatric and adult resuscitation.

Knowing the importance of relaxation,<

Around two decades ago I took a 600 hour massage therapist course.

As retirement from nursing approached, I decided to reignite my passion for yoga.

Honoring my nature to teach, I took a 200 hour yoga immersion teacher training at the Yoga Center in Asheville, North Carolina. During the immersion, restorative yoga and kids yoga resonated the most with me.

My background in medicine & massage helps with my ultimate goal, to empower people to relieve stress and restore a sense of calmness in their life.

Fire Ceremony with Jayne Clark


It’s time to let go of 2023 and set our intentions for 2024 with a traditional Shamanic Grandfather Fire Ceremony!


Grief ~ Loss ~ Heartache ~ Heartbreak ~ Disappointment ~ Anxiety ~ Stress ~ Lack of self-worth and value ~ Confusion around purpose and belonging ~ Financial insecurity ~ Chronic health issues.

I know this year has been incredibly difficult for so many of you. You’ve had to endure some deep emotional challenges while still giving your best attempt to show up in the world, support those around you, and meet your daily responsibilities.

And now it’s time for YOU to receive healing, connection, and community with other like minded people.

There are 5 Parts to a Grandfather Fire Ceremony

  • Brief explanation of what is a traditional Grandfather Fire Ceremony and what to expect.
  • Invocation of opening sacred space
  • 3 opportunities to work with Grandfather Fire medicine – one, releasing what you’re ready to let go of. Two, offering your prayers and intentions of what you want to bring forth. Three, is gratitude.
  • A time for quiet reflection, journaling, and / or communion with Grandfather Fire medicine. There will be space for sharing if you feel called. It’s not required.
  • Closing sacred space.
