Monday, February 8 Vision Boarding for Success in 2010 - Part I Gurbeen Bhasin $19 7:00 to 9:00 pm 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.
Monday, February 15 Vision Boarding for Success in 2010 - Part II Gurbeen Bhasin $19 7:00 to 9:00 pm 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.
Wednesday, February 17 Passion & Fear Sandra Levy $25 7:00 to 9:00 pm Passion is the energy of inspiration. Fear is the energy of movement. I encourage people not to reject fear as it goes hand in hand with passion, inspiration. It is practically impossible not to ever feel fear because it is a part of our emotional make up. Fear is the energy of movement. We are either afraid of moving or we move without direction. Understanding how to work with fear enables us to move in a positive direction.

Wednesday, March 17 Forgiveness Sandra Levy $25 7:00 to 9:00 pm It is very easy to say to someone you must forgive in order to move forward in life.

Sat-Sun, June 12-13 Medicine Plant Walk Dora Miceli, Carolyn & Richard   weekend getaway There are ancient secrets and lessons hidden in nature. The plant spirits hold many of these secrets, all we need to do is stop and learn to listen to their wisdom. Native Americans have a holistic view of health.

Saturday, June 19 Hot Stone Massage Dora Miceli (at Dora's Studio - 452 Gladstone Ave.) $50 10am - 4pm Ancient cultures and Native Americans used this technique to improve overall mental, spiritual, and physical wellness. Native Americans used hot stones to detoxify and to find harmony and balance. Basalt stones, polished, hardened lava rocks, are heated by water in an electric roaster. The heated stones are then placed strategically along pressure points to help melt away tension creating a calming atmosphere. Stress, anxiety, and other life annoyances disappear long enough for your mind to relax at the deepest level. The therapeutic masage creates a sense of well being. *Please bring a vegetarian dish for everyone to share for a potluck lunch. Sacred Space is a pre-requisite.
