Welcome to the Fireside Lodge.

The Fireside Lodge is a place for people on their path
to healing, wisdom, transformation and joy.

I am the lodge keeper, Andrea Silver Bear.

I offer my skills and experiences
from my life as a leadership coach, shamanic practitioner,
Reiki teacher, soul midwife and martial artist.
I am very glad that you are here.

The Fireside Lodge is located in  West London and offers courses,
ceremonies, group and one-on-one sessions.
​I also see clients online:  People from across the globe
​meet at the Fireside by Zoom.

A place for Self-Healing and Transformation

Your life is yours.
Healing, strength and guidance come from within, from your essence.
They come from connection.
From your connection with your heart, mind and body.
From your connection with your deepest knowledge and with ancient wisdom.
They come from your relationship with other beings,
with nature and with the sacred source.

The Fireside Lodge opens pathways for you to make these connections stronger.

It is a place for self-healing, for awakening your inner power.
For being fully YOU.
​

Let us walk together, the Lodge is right here...

One-on-One sessions

Your visit to the Fireside Lodge will be safe, relaxing and nurturing. Sessions are held in West London (near Hanwell Station on the Paddington-Oxford Line).  ​Most sessions are also available remotely, some only face-to-face. Info about Pricing.

Workshops and Groups

Our events are live again, mostly at the Fireside Lodge in Hanwell, West London, or outdoors in the Brent Valley. Some will be offered on Zoom for our far-away friends. As our healing and meditation methods function outside of the concepts of time and space anyway, it is easy to create a shared energy circles remotely.

"The Autumn Equinox Ceremony was a rich and powerful celebration with others, made possible by Zoom. From the warmth and safety of my own home, I journeyed far, guided expertly by Andrea, in a beautifully constructed ceremony. We celebrated the autumn and prepared for the winter to come. I left feeling clear and calm, and continue to experience the sustaining energy that comes with this work at its best.
​Highly recommended." ​​Julie 27 Sept 2020

Some Sacred Poetry
​describing an experience at the Fireside Lodge:
You may ask yourself: Who am I?
Ask the river and it will praise your flow.
Ask the rocks and they will describe your strength.
Ask the fire and it will rave about your passion.
Ask the trees and they will whisper to your loving heart.
Ask the birds and they will sing about your joy.
Ask the earth and she will hold you in her womb.
They talk and whisper and sing to you.
Until you know again who you are.
Then you walk in beauty.
Gifted to the Lodge by the Grandmothers
