Many spiritual and cultural traditions teach that we live alongside an unseen world. Ancestors, land spirits, ghosts, wandering dead, and other beings have long been part of the stories and experiences of people across cultures. Yet many of us are taught either to fear these experiences or to ignore them completely.

In this online class, folk practitioner Donyelle Headington will share teachings, stories, and practical tools for creating healthy spiritual boundaries. Drawing from years of work with ancestors, folk traditions, community healing, and spirit work, Donyelle will discuss the different types of entities she has encountered and been taught about, including ancestors, ghosts, elementals, and "the Others."

Topics will include:

• Ancestors, ghosts, elementals, and other spirit beings
• How different traditions understand these entities
• Signs that a spirit may be seeking attention
• The difference between fear, intuition, and discernment
• Household protections and boundary practices
• Protecting your dream life and sleep
• Protecting children and vulnerable family members
• Maintaining healthy boundaries in spiritual practice
• When to engage, when to redirect, and when to seek help

Donyelle will also share examples of traditional protection tools and crafts from her own practice and discuss a future hands-on workshop where participants will create their own protective items.
The focus is not on fear or fighting spirits, but on developing healthy relationships, strong boundaries, and practical skills for living well with the unseen world.
