Learn from lineage keepers in the stories section and connect with knowledge about a powerful Maya tool for development, the Calendar of Life (Cholq’ij).

Integrate and Nourish

Living lineages are a gift that help us to heal and evolve, but we must be responsible with this gift by integrating ancient wisdom appropriately into our modern context and by nourishing the roots of the traditions, namely in their homelands. We highlight a world seen through transformed eyes in our blog. Saq’ Be’ initiates and supports efforts to support lineages so that they thrive in their homelands.
