Ascended Masters and Archangels Meditation Workshop. Sunday 20th April 2008.

Ascended Masters and Archangels Meditation WorkShop

This day provides an opportunity to connect with the energies of the Ascended Masters and those few Archangels who also walked on this earth. Working with these discarnate beings can help us enormously with our life’s journey and healing process.

Ascended Masters have walked on the earth many times and have undergone a process of ascension. These individuals light up our history with their spiritual experiences and their service to humanity. Some of the Archangels were also extraordinary mortals whose lives were of such benefit that they were given wings. It is believed that these discarnate beings continue to guide the spiritual well being of the planet and are concerned with assisting anyone who genuinely seeks a spiritual path.

The history of the Ascended Masters and the religious, esoteric and mystical doctrines that surround them will be discussed, and the process of ascension will be explored using meditation and guided visualization.

Please bring a crystal pendulum, a journal and a packed lunch – teas, water, biscuits and snacks will be provided.

Cost for the day is £50.00 per person. The day starts at 10.00am and finishes at 5.00am there will be a break in the morning and afternoon an hour for lunch.

Venue will be 15 Station Road, Meopham, Kent which is accessible from the M25, M20, A2/M2 motorways and by rail from Victoria Station.

Anne Simpson is an experienced facilitator of meditation courses and brings her healing skills and knowledge to the workshops and courses she conducts.

Sacred Sites and the Devic Kingdom Healing Workshop. Sunday 11th May 2008.

Sacred Sites and the Devic Kingdom Healing Workshop

Falling after a Full Moon this experiential day will celebrate the advent of Spring and also provide an opportunity to visit some of the megalithic sites in the Medway valley to connect with their energy. We will also explore and experience the energies of the Devic Kingdom.

The Devic Kingdom holds the Nature Sprits who work closely with the Angelic realm to help maintain the balance of nature. Each part of nature has its own spirit world, the elements, the plants, minerals and trees. Through dowsing and meditation we will connect with these playful and helpful energies and so experience the joy of nature at a deeper level.

We may also be able to visit a crop circle if one has appeared in the area by then.

Although not strenuous there will be some walking to access the megalithic sites, woods and fields. Please therefore wear shoes that are supportive and casual clothes that cannot be spoiled by sitting on grass, stones, and earth. Please also be prepared for all weathers and bring whatever you need for rain/sun protection.

Please also bring a journal or diary, a crystal pendulum/dowsing rods, and a packed lunch. You may also wish to bring a camera.

Cost for the day is £50.00 per person. The day starts at 10.00am and finishes at 5.00pm there will be breaks and an hour for lunch.

We will meet at 15 Station Road, Meopham, Kent which is accessible from the M25, M20, A2/M2 motorways and by rail from Victoria Station and from there go to the sites.

Meditation & Mindfulness Retreat - Claridge House, Surrey. Monday, June 16th 2008 to Friday, June 20th 2008.

Meditation & Mindfulness Retreat

This residential retreat combines meditation with the Buddhist practice of Mindfulness and is held at the Quaker Rest and Renewal Centre, Claridge House in Surrey. This is a wonderful opportunity to take time out and enjoy meditation in the week leading up to the Summer Solstice. The house and gardens at Claridge House provide warm hospitality, healing and a refuge from the hurly burly of our daily life (http://www.claridgehouse.quaker.eu.org). Here you will be able to completely relax, let go of worldly concerns and embark on an inner journey to explore mindfulness.

This meditation technique is a corner stone of Buddhist practice, and is the pathway to insight and wisdom as we come to understand the true meaning of reality. Although Mindfulness is normally associated with Buddhism, most major religions and current New Age philosophy have similar concepts to develop an intentional and non-judgmental awareness of self and the world about us.

The course will include short lectures, meditation techniques, and Mindfulness exercises to enable practice of both meditation and mindfulness. The Mindfulness practice will be dove-tailed into the rhythm of the days at Claridge House, and will include periods of silence. The silence will be graduated and will be increased in length at the beginning and then decreased towards the end of the course to enable course participants to return to normal life easily.

The aims of this course are to develop techniques for self-healing through self-awareness. Participants will be able to manage thoughts and feelings which emerge by applying Mindfulness techniques and so experience more balance and harmony in their daily lives.

Anne Simpson is an experienced facilitator of meditation courses and brings her healing skills and knowledge to the workshops and courses she conducts. She has practiced as a Registered Homoeopath for ten years and is also a Registered Healer. Anne aims to encourage knowledge of how to self heal through her practice.

To book your place please contact Claridge House directly on 01342 832150. The cost of the course will be £290 including accommodation and full board. For more information please contact Back to the Source at 01474 815755 and leave your details.
