Living Medicine presents Light and Shadow
Dear Friends,
It is clear now that at this time on the year's wheel that light is returning and fast. There is a quickening as we look around us in nature, in the Earth and the Air. We will look at how this is mirrored in us. We speak of April Fools day and in other culture's we speak of Heyoka and Coyote. This is the time of shining the light and honouring the shadow within. This is an opportunity to look at the Great Cosmic jokes of Life and to laugh!
As a Circle the invitation is to look at what needs to be healed in the light and in the darkness with the support and guidance of the Medicine Wheel and the helping Spirits of this season. We will sing, drum and journey to enter this sacred, healing space in order to receive what we need right now to be in the place of Equilibrium.
Working with shamanic techniques, ritual and ceremony we can share our hearts and hold and support each other as we step into the place of Balance.
It would be great to see you there to do ceremony and healing together in the, as ever, magical circle.
In Love and Spirit, Alison.

A little bit about Kinesiology... Kinesiology uses muscle-testing (see photo) to identify and clear physical, mental and emotional stress and pain, such as structural problems, relationship issues, depression, insomnia, learning difficulties, allergies, digestive problems and hormonal and energy imbalances. It can also help improve performance and achieve goals, and it can be used to test for nutritional supplements. By using your muscles as a feedback monitor, your body can indicate what corrections are needed and what is best for you, allowing you to take charge of your health and wellbeing.
|
Special offer this month !!! 50% off the first two appointments for anyone with a digestive problem, i.e. £30 per appointment rather than £60.

I have recently completed Sara Turner's Moonflower Essences and Essential Oils training course, so if you're interested in finding out what essences and oils would help you, kinesiology can give you the answers Coming soon: K-Power® Workshops (1 or 2 day courses): Stress Release Made Easy and for Manual Therapists - kinesiology workshops suitable for massage therapists, physiotherapists, physical therapists etc: 1.

Home SalesHome Sales "The Lovelli photo evenings at my house were a warm, full of heart and soul occasion. Our living room was full of colour, chatter, attentive "looking" and laughter, conversations sparked off by the varied pictures. Sue was there to tell us about where and how they came about. I would love to have regular such evenings because of the warm and lovely feeling they leave behind them for many weeks after. People love and need to make real connections and such an opportunity is a perfect one!"

As well as dancing the Rhythms there will be other structures to carry us through the night.

Wire-bound notebooks

Office services including: General Typing and.... Databases Have you ever lost your address book - and all it's contents? How frustrating is that? I'm now offering to put all your contact details into a file/CD - so they will never be lost again and can be updated whenever you fancy.... I'll creat a database which can then be used in a variety of ways - including creating a new address book at the click of a button (or two). I'm even able to create a wire-bound booklet for your office or handbag. Even a sheet with all the details crammed on is possible. Having your addresses and contacts on a database means that labels can easily be produced - so no more writing out all those addresses at Christmas.... and mass letters can be created with personal details included. Cost? It depends on the time it takes to transfer your details - obviously things like the number of contacts and the legibility of your handwriting will be factors - but I aim to keep it affordable.

Wire binding - 80p a booklet - A4, A5 or smaller

Want to develop your presentation skills? Every 2nd and 4th Tues of the month Come along and have some challenging fun... Canterbury Communicators is a speaking (and listening) and leadership development club. Members of the club learn to give speeches and take on certain roles each evening. Leadership and communication skills are developed in a very supporting and fun atmosphere. Guests are always welcome and encouraged to participate to get the most enjoyment from the evening - but we don't pressure you to. The club belongs to a world-wide umbrella organisation ‘Toastmasters’ – but we are far removed from the classic image of a toastmaster.
