Saturday, May 2 - Reiki I with Erin Bentley from 10 am to 4:30 pm, $50
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy." Please bring a vegetarian dish to share with the fellow students. *Sacred Space is a Prerequisite.
Tuesday, May 5 - A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose Chapter 1 with Dee Dussault from 7 to 9 pm, $10
Eckhart Tolle shows you how to become free of fear, unease, discontent, and other dysfunctions of the human mind, by going beyond identification with the ego. The deep inner stillness that underlies his words serves as a transmission that will reveal to you your own inner depth, a dimension of consciousness that is one with the eternal Now. This is the only place where true happiness can be found. In this 10-week study group, we will discuss how we relate to, and practice Eckhart Tolle’s suggestions for being fully present in the moment, which helps us to ‘transcend our ego-based consciousness.’ Our intention is to make practicing presence a way of living and being in the world. Together we’ll watch his webcast with Oprah, then we will share an enlightened conversation! Each week will follow one chapter of his book, so please read it in advance, and write your thoughts as you practice his teachings. Bring your book, a pen (for notes in the margins) and an open mind.
Wednesday, May 6 - Strategic Visioning with Tanya Pillay from 7 to 9 pm $30
Learn basic principles of self-hypnosis to ensure your thoughts are supporting rather than sabotaging your goals. It's easy once you know how, and you can do it anytime. The natural meditative state of self-hypnosis is perfectly safe and relaxing. In this interactive workshop, you can share your thought process aloud or do the work privately in your head –- it's up to you! Many people find these tools effective in stress management and shifting emotional or behavioural patterns. It's exceptionally useful to those who experience frequent setbacks (e.g., sales professionals, performing artists).
Thursday, May 7 - Vision Boarding Part One with Gurbeen Bhasin from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, $19
Visions and intentions can manifest. As many of you know, I've re-built my life entirely after being diagnosed with Lupus in 2002 and created my dream life - doing everything that I love every day of my life. It started with an idea, an intention and a vision board and today I'm living this reality. In Part I we will explore the concept of manifesting, what our dreams are and how to bring them to life.
Saturday May 9 & Sunday May 10 - Intuitive Massage with Dora Miceli (located at 452 Gladstone Avenue) from 10 am to 4 pm, $199 (lunch included)
Across many cultures, massage has been used as a healing tool. This tool allows the clients to relax and let go. As the body relaxes it emits messages (energies). The messages come in many ways, speaking different languages. These languages or dialogue tells the practitioner how to proceed with the treatment. Therefore the client dictates there own healing. The practitioner just lovingly... listens... and proceeds. Students are taught how to create a safe loving environment. They are also taught a step by step instruction on walking through a treatment.
Tuesday, May 12 - A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose Chapter 2 with Dee Dussault from 7 to 9 pm, $10
Thursday, May 14 - Vision Boarding Part Two with Gurbeen Bhasin from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, $19
We will gather images in the week between both classes that represent our intentions and what we would like to manifest - we will re-iterate that dream to the class as we make our vision boards. Please bring images that speak to your dreams and a bristol board of your favourite color.
