“Studying the earth connected wisdom … with Beth over the past 8 years has changed my life. It’s been a delicious journey into self-discovery that deeply nourishes both heart and soul.”
—Terri S.
The first time I experienced an Earth Wisdom Wheel process with Grandmother Twylah Nitsch, I was amazed beyond words.
There, on a piece of paper, staring back at me, was confirmation of the essence of me, my gifts and why I’m here. I was ecstatic and filled up down to my toes.
This approach is so different from ‘traditional American culture’. The idea that the Circle is Earth’s language is equally difficult to understand. A gift from the earth, meant to provide guidance, clarity, confirmation, and direction? Yes.
For a girl who has been exploring Transformative Art for decades, the power of the Earth Wisdom Wheel to spark transformation is a constant gift.
While I can talk about this unique process, and how profound it is, there is nothing like experiencing it yourself.
A good way to begin is with the seminar The Earth Wisdom Wheel: A Pathway for Clarity & Wholeness.
Let’s fill your spirit up and then down to your toes with Earth Wisdom, in either a group seminar or private session.
I began creating seminars in the 90’s. The topics are wide, varied and too numerous to name. We started with the theme of creating Sacred Space; with honoring ourselves as women; with redeveloping a relationship with the earth, with understanding and balancing the beautiful relationship between the yin/yang, cause/effect, feminine/masculine qualities within ourselves. One theme led to another over three delicious decades—and it hasn’t stopped.
I thrive at the intersection of Art & Creativity, Healing & Wholeness, Earth Connection, and Spiritual Growth.
The Earth Wisdom Wheel: A Pathway for Clarity & Wholeness
An Introductory seminar on using The Earth Wisdom Wheel as a tool for clarity, direction and becoming a whole.
The history of the Earth becomes a powerful context for illuminating the shift from the 4th World of Separation & Control into the 5th World of Connection, Unity & Illumination.
This process is both joyous and deeply meaningful.
This is a regenerative process. As we are learning about regenerating the earth, so we are learning about regenerating self.

When Two Superpowers Merge: The Power of Words meets 4 Direction Wisdom
I wrote Dare 2B Fair: 33 Steps to Build a Better World With our Words in answer to my question “What can I do to help make the world a better place for myself and others?”
Through daily prompts the Dare 2B Fair process focuses on the power in our words. We all speak every day. Words are a never ending, ongoing resource.
In the seminar, I combine the power of words with the wisdom held in the Earth Wisdom Wheel. We connect four of the daily prompts with the Earth Wisdom Wheel to reveal the inspiration, stability, Inner knowing & Achievement and Wisdom for the group or individual.
This process has proven successful for folks both familiar and new to the concept of the Earth Wisdom Wheel.
As always with the power of Earth Wisdom, folks feel lifted and gifted with plenty of awe-inspiring AH-HA moments!
(While having read the book may be helpful, it is not a prerequisite for the seminar)
Way of the 5th World: Creating “The New Story of Connection”
Way of the 5th World: Creating the New Story of Connection is, in my opinion, powerful and life changing. It is a pathway to consciously identify our wounding from the 4th World and consciously transform it into a new paradigm, a new encoding, the new story of connection.
We were all encoded by the 4th World of Separation & Control. We believed the story. We took it on. We were wounded but we also participated in separating & controlling, too.
Wise Women Healing understands that the wound is the clay for transformation. Transform with me!

“My work with Beth over the last year utilizing the wheels and the deepening awareness of the 5th World and what that means for each of us has been deeply nourishing and transformative.

Spirited Artist/Artful Living: Replenishing the Artists Soul
Spirited Artistry/Artful Living. After seeing artists of all kinds endure endless criticism and constant rejection, I created seminars for artists to ‘feed their creative soul’ in a world that seemingly ate it for lunch. I expanded the title, acknowledging that we are all creating all the time whether we self-identify as artist or not.

“Beth is a creative springboard for the soul. Not just in this seminar for artists—in all of them!”
—Marge C. Writer/Performer
The Wheel of Intentional Living
The Wheel of Intentional Living: We know the drill. It’s New Years, or another moment of change in our lives. We sit down and make a list of our goals and aspirations.
Nothing wrong with this! However, the thinking process, and even the form of a line, comes from only one side of our brains. The Circle, connects both sides as a working whole—what it is actually meant to be, and it is powerful!
While the list is helpful, what we do in The Wheel of Intentional Living, is combine images & senses, guidance from inside and outside ourselves, and a process I call ‘whole brain mapping’ from using the Wisdom Wheel in a variety of ways.

Sign up for Beth Bando’s Complimentary Gift, plus receive ‘food for thought and spirit’ messages, updates on publications, seminars, eco-art and more.
What do the Elders mean when they say we have all been living in “The Story of Separation?” How can we shift into “The Story of Connection,” on the inside and outside of us?
Beth Bando illuminates the rippling effects of separation and provides doable steps to support our shift into connection, becoming whole and cultural healing.
