Recovery Day: Honoring the Sacrifice and Service of Don David Wiley
During Recovery Days, Don David Wiley is not available for sessions or events. These days are dedicated to his vital recovery after serving as a conduit for the God of Fire. Each time Grandfather Fire calls him into the ether, Don David endures intense physical strain as his temperature rises and he enters a deep trance-like state. This powerful process comes with great risk, as he channels sacred wisdom from Divine to share with others.
