**Soul Mate Musings**

Edition #1
So You Wanna Be A Soul Mate?
Welcome to another year of Dreamtime! As you sit and read this newsletter, there are already 17 dreamers living on the land in Paonia, braving winds of 60mph, hanging out with the alpacas, sleeping in yurts, and taking treks daily to the empty anticipant site of our now-infamous festival in the desert. As you can imagine planning for an event like this takes many months of preparation, fundraising, promoting and visualizing.
Today I approach you as a way to being the solidification process of this year's "Soul Mate Bar and Lounge" staff. My name is Zoë and I have worked for Dreamtime for three years. This is my second year serving as the mate bar manager. Over time, the mate bar has evolved into one of the festival's busiest areas, as well as our #1 fundraiser. This year, the status quo just shot to outer space! We will have live music acts on our own stage, host herbal elixer ceremonies, as well as extend our hours to 7am-4am.
I am looking for 19, charismatic, devoted souls who are interested in saving the world through service, evolution, and the sharing of energy in a purifying way. For the last year, I have been connecting with individuals interested in participating in the production during the festival. Now is when the manifestation of all those planted seeds will begin.
Job Description
First and foremost, you must be willing to fully commit to 3, 4hr shifts. I will work closely with each of you as needed to ensure you get to see the music you want and experience the festival when I create the schedule, but to begin with, for the sake of security, I need a full commitment from you, to proceed with my office end of this job.
Each shift will include three positions, 1 – shift lead (will be manager/senior staff) 2 – cashier 3 – busser (2 and 3 will not be strictly enforced and 1 will go with where ever the flow says, whether cashier, stocking, or bussing) Basically, everyone will be fully equipped with the same list of responsibilities but positions will be created for the sake of clarity.
There will be music in the mate bar from 12pm-4am, therefore, the crowd has the potential of being very thick. As a staff, we must be willing to hold very strong space in this environment, which means you must be able to quickly and efficiently move through the line of customers as well has maintain a vibe that feels excited, uplifted, and supportive of whatever is going on. There will be more staff than simply 'The Nineteen' working behind the scenes, including a stage manager, floating volunteers, and interns who have helped with the vision. The more cohesive we are with our system, the better everything will fall into place.
I expand upon this so greatly because I want to emphasize the level of energy work we are doing by creating this space. Alchemical magic comes from our own inner state of being, and through the process of creating these beverages we are infusing our beliefs and intentions into the water and mate. The future of food-as-medicine comes from our ability to see and work with the properties of our ingredients. Over the course of the next few weeks, upon accepting this commitment, you will be receiving lots of information about mate, kombucha, infusion of intention, and space-holding as a service industry worker. I believe all of you who have expressed interest in working here this summer know these things, and our shared vision is what will conjure the highest vibration for the "Soul Mate Bar and Lounge".
There will be such a level of presence needed that the following things would be too disruptive:
1. Children behind the bar while on shift (this does not mean if you have kids you can't work here, just that we would need to work together to find a way your child could be cared for in some place other than behind the counter)
2. Leaving in the middle of a shift or even seeking to split shifts into smaller segments (our system regarding money is based upon a 4hr shift, and the accountability in this environment is specific to who is on the schedule)
3. Coming to a shift under the influence of any substance that inhibits your ability to be clear and graceful
If you have any special circumstances as far as what these requirements are, I encourage you to still submit the questionnaire and let me know what you are feeling. Although I need 19 specific slots filled to fully commit, there are other options that could be worked out to accommodate your participation in the production.
Perks to Your Commitment
! Free ticket to Dreamtime, a $125 value
! Free mate while on shift, as well as discounted mate throughout the festival
! Exposure to the founders of this festival, as well as all the musicians who play both on the main stage and in the bar
! Opportunity to connect with pretty much everyone at the festival through the vehicle of serving a magical potion of wonderment
! You get to spread love and community by helping support the future of Dreamtime
! ?…what more could you ask for? J
Here's what I need from you to help me organize these etheric potentials:
1. Please email to soulmatebar@dreamthefuture.org your completed version of the attached questionnaire by June 21st
2. Say a prayer to Spirit that our vessel of connection is widening and soon we will be tangibly working together to create a frequency shift on this planet by opening our hearts to those we serve using the vehicle of Dreamtime… J
3. Enliven yourself!
4. Have Fun!
5. Breathe!
6. Drink lots of water!
7. Patiently await your next edition of the "Soul Mate Musings"…
