BREATHING in the LIGHT & Monthly Tune-ups

with Tamara Penn

2010 brings in a whole new energy and new beginnings. Start the year off a bang by joining us for a powerful transformative group Rebirthing.

Energy breathing is the key to bliss

To breathe powerfully and freely is to come alive freeing the mind, body and spirit. As the positive life force expands & suppressed tensions and/or emotions come to the surface, one becomes very relaxed, more focused and ready to make creative positive choices for one's life.

Conscious connected breathing can release cellular memory.

Mediumship & Meditation Workshop

with Bart Smit

This course will help participants deepen their connection with their own source. The ultimate goal of this course is not for one to become a deep trance Channeler, but to establish a connection with Source in a conscious way. Bart has over 25 years of deep trance channeling and teaching experience.

Fundamentally, to reach this deep silent and quiet voice within we must move beyond our personality and our mind and establish a one-pointedness that leads beyond the egoic self. We need to move into a new quantum field of consciousness where Truth resides. Mediumship or being an open channel allows us to connect with our own truth and our spirit guides.

We will be meditating every evening. We will discuss the principals of mindfulness meditation.

Bart does not present a meditation technique, but rather establishes an atmosphere where meditation can take place. It is not so much a matter of method as of knowledge and understanding. When we focus our attention inward, meditation happens quite naturally. The mind is considered not as a barrier, but rather as a portion of universal Consciousness with a tendency to congeal into thoughts or images. Bart patiently assists seekers to find the witness beyond thoughts and emotions.
