EXPERIENCE OF THE OTHER SIDE - CLINICAL DEATH FIRST HAND :: Talk by Ina Matijević
What is the experience of conscious dying? What is the other side and correlations of Time and Space? How does it look like to consciously go back to this dimension through Heart portal? Why am I working at this moment on Horizon project in EU and what it is about? How Consciousness is scale invariant and implies an Event Horizon on human brain?
About Ina
I was educated as a food tech engineer and have worked for several years in one of the biggest food corporations in SE Europe. Since my NDE I have had prophecy dreams and visions of future that kicked in very strongly in 2009 to leave my secure job and follow the inner guidance. The strange encounters and synchronicities led me to top scientists in quantum physics, Gunter Pauli the ”Steve Jobs” of sustainable development and later my mentor, Jörg Schauberger the grandson of Victor Schauberger the Water Wizard (Tesla contemporary) who gave me patent of free energy, Donald Trump the 45th American President etc…
At the intersection of many Horizons, I will tell a story about the Play of Consciousness that is the amusing Self behind each and every eye hidden by the momentary dream of human life.

CONSCIOUS GUIDANCE FOR AWAKENING SOULS :: Workshop by Ramsey Jordan
Live 1 on 1 therapy with an “active listening” conscious audience. 5 or 6 individuals will have the opportunity to face personal issues, blocks, or traumas in a loving, safe and conscious setting. We will look into perspectives, belief systems, victim mindset, powerlessness and emotional blocks and aim to transform them into, empowerment, knowledge and responsibility and healing. Transformation begins with awareness and responsibility so first lets become aware of the part we are playing and where our power lies.
Behind defences, stories, and personalities lies our truth. Behind our blame and judgement lies our pain. Lets learn to feel again so we may discover the fuel behind our unwanted experiences and bring about life transformation through awareness and healing.
Typical topics in previous workshops range from: creative blocks, financial difficulties, the inability to say “no,” shame, parental issues, toxic relationships, fear, manifestation of physical pain, victim mindset, guilt, emotional blocks, sexual and physical trauma, socialisation, obedience and people pleasing.
About Ramsey
My first major intuition based decision was to quit university when I was 21, this lead to me doing a one year music performance school when I honestly remember saying, “I didn’t know you could enjoy life.” It was the first time I actually enjoyed being alive. Making the choice to leave the traditional path of society was the greatest and best decision I ever made. A few years later and I would make my next scary intuitive based decision which was to leave England for Spain where I would take “enjoying life” to another level. I travelled for over 13 years, working as a professional beatboxer and vocal loop artist performing in over 10 countries and making 2 original CDs of pure vocal electronic music. I am also absolutely crazy about frisbee, I often joke saying “I would be a much better musician if it wasn’t for my love for frisbee.” After 13 years of hedonistic and amazing travelling, the truth and pain behind all my need for escape and adventures surfaced. I would awaken. After 5 or 6 years of intense and transformative awakening experiences and being so excited and amazed as to what I had seen and how it works, even though it was the most intense and devastating time of my life, I feel compelled to share what I have seen. I have started a brand new YouTube channel called “Global Molecule,” am currently writing a book on awakening guidance and give workshops and one on ones in awakening guidance too. I think the moment anyone sees what I saw that will be all they would want to talk about too. Its not something you can keep quiet easily. I look forward to sharing my experiences, with you all, in Mystic Mountain 2023. Love to you all!

DECONSTRUCTING EGO :: Workshop by Ramsey Jordan
“One who can not see ego only sees ego.” Ramsey Jordan
“At first it will feel frightening, like letting your grip go on a cliff edge meaning certain death, then when all you feel is shame and guilt and your stomach turn upside down you realise you’ve held on long enough and it’s time to let go more and more. No one can be harmed from a metaphorical cliff jump and that is why it is called an ego death and not actual death. It is only the ego that is harmed, well actually that is not even accurate, what appears as harm is the arising of guilt and shame feelings that can not occupy the same space and time as an intact and defensive ego. So in fact ego death is simply the letting down of the defences to allow uncomfortable feelings to surface.” Ramsey Jordan
So maybe you just want to use these nice quotes from above to set a nice romantic mood around the workshop / lecture but here is a description below. Use what you like my friend.
In this workshop we will focus specifically on the role of the ego in day to day interpersonal dynamics and the individual healing journey in simple and practical language.
What is the ego?
Identity the self concept and self preservation.
The ego and the unconscious mind.
Egoic values of unconscious automatic identification and how the ego defends these
Deflection, diversion, resistance, denial, dismissal, justification, judgement, blame and projection.
We will also look at why guilt and shame can not occupy the same space and time as an intact unconscious ego.
Identification and dissidentification.

ECSTATIC SPIRIT DANCE - Connect to your Divine Essence :: Workshop by Iva Solarević Jeličić
Ecstatic Spirit Dance is a free form movement & body work. It’s a sort of deep moving meditation with different rhythms and intensity, along with different kinds of exercises designed to get you out of your confort zone and set you free. There are specific contact and eye gazing exercises, which will mirror some of your hidden inner content and blockages which will be able to be seen and transformed.
It is a practice through which we release blockages; suppressed emotions, physical tensions, traumas, stresses, fears, and allow ourselfs to be free. We are coming back to our authenticity. Through this practice we touch our truth and we express it through free movement, voice and deep breathing. It is a sacred healing practice which helps us to connect deeply with our essence, freedom, love and inner power.
The uniqueness of this workshop is that it forces you to get out of your confort zone. You meet, face to face your limitations, insecurities, fears and subconscious beliefs. We do it in safe space, with other people who are also ready to expose their insecurities and show their vulnerability. And then through loving presence we alchemize our limitations, insecuritis, fears etc. into strength, flow, focus, freedom and inner power.
For this workshop you need comfortable clothes, a mat or a blanket and eventualy bottle of water.
No previous experience needed.
Duration: 120 min
About Iva
My life is focused on discovering humans as multi-dimensional beings with the goal to find the ways we can achieve health, joy and freedom. Research led me through the body, mind, emotions, energy, spirit, and consciousness. During college I studied the physiological processes, the locomotor system, health and ways of how our body functions. In 2001 I enrolled in postgraduate studies and began to study relations between psyche and body, the influence of meditation, yoga, body-oriented psychotherapy, and energy work on the psychosomatic system.
Finally I discovered what is the function of consciousness on our system. So I combined all those aspects and made specific approach and programs through which I help others to achieve balance and finally to enjoy their life.
For more than 24 years I work with people of different ages and nations through various programs and activities. My role is to be your support in the proces of discovering more of your potential, to help you embody love and freedom into your life and discover the limitlessness of your own being.
Free Spirit, healthy body, happy heart!
HEALING THROUGH TOUCH - meditation process :: Workshop by Iva Solarević Jeličić
Loving touch is a way to heal our body and soul.
It establishes your mind-body connection, decreases anxiety (it gives you a feeling of security and relaxation), increases the number of white blood cells (important for strong immune system), increases the level of endorphin (feel good hormones), helps to reduce anxiety, provides pain relief and it is important for healthy brain development… so it is a real natural medicine. Hugging and other forms of non sexual touching cause your brain to release oxytocin, known as the “bonding hormone.” This stimulates the release of other feel-good hormones, such as dopamine and serotonin, while reducing stress hormones, such as cortisol and norepinephrine. These neuro chemical changes make you feel happier and less stressed. Research suggests that being touched can also lower your heart rate and blood pressure, lessen depression and anxiety, boost your immune system, and even relieve pain. Loving touch makes you heart smile!
Through this process we will deeply relax our psychosomatic system, release some levels of fear, regenerate and open our hearts to the flow of life. Welcome to this healing proces and feel the powers of a loving touch!
For this workshop you need comfortable clothes, a mat or a blanket and eventually bottle of water.
No previous experience needed.

About Teja
I am Teja from Slovenia and my big passion and love in life is creating with feathers. Early in my teenage years I start exploring myself, spirituality and I was inspired to start creating dreamcatchers – and from that moment I fell in love with the process of creating with feathers and exploring my creativity. For my creations I use only cruelty free feathers and it's really magical to work and connect with feathers from beautiful feathered beings. So with them I create dreamcatchers, feather earrings, necklaces, hair accessories, smudge fans, hat accessories and recently I found a new joy which is intuitive painting on feathers. And because creating gave me so much joy in life i decided to share my love for creating and knowledge with others. My mission is to awaken peoples creative energy and to remember them about the magic of feathers, beauty of life and creating together. After many creative circles with adults and kids and having the opportunity to share my love for creating on festivals ; Free Mental, Mystic Mountain, Mose Cacao Dance&Camp; Art and Ozora festival it is so beautiful to see all the magical creations that were created and the creative energy that flows thru us. Each creative circle is a magical journey and I welcome you to experience it on Mystic Mountain!
