I've had a busy and enjoyable month, joining in a Peace Day meditation
and prayer, djembe drumming under a yew tree in woodland - to a passing
audience of walkers and their canine friends, and having a stall at the
Holistic Day at Hamblin Hall with sunshine and wonderful people.
I also watched an interesting TV programme, The Frankincense Trail. In
the last part, Kate Humble visited first Jerusalem, then Bethlehem. In
both cities, there are Christians, Moslems and Jews, all wanting to maintain
certain sites as sacred for worship. In Jerusalem, there appears to be
a lot of unrest and disagreement about the design of a building on the major
site, who should have access to it, etc. There seems to be a lack of
peace and harmony, with people on edge. However, in Bethlehem, they
are sharing maintenance and access of their major sacred site. They
showed a Christmas Eve celebration. There was music and joy, and the
Moslem call to prayer could be heard in the background. All enjoying
the festival. All living together in harmony, respecting each other,
and their faiths. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all do that?
This
month ends with Hallowe'en. It falls on a Saturday this year, so there
will no doubt be plenty of parties and events to go to on the 30th and 31st.
If, like me, you'd rather be more in touch with nature, there are more
traditional Samhain celebrations. This is recognised by some as the
old Celtic and Pagan new year. It's a time for honouring our
ancestors, and remembering major changes that have happened to us in the
past year. One event I thoroughly enjoyed last year included
traditional storytelling and singing around a fire (made using traditional
bushcraft methods) in the woods at Kingley Vale. It will be held on
Friday 30th this year, and goes ahead regardless of the weather. I can
give you contact details if you're interested in going.

Quantum-Touch® Energy Healing
17th/18th October - Farnham, Surrey
24th/25th October - Hamblin Hall, Bosham, W.Sussex
You can learn the power to heal! It is within all of us, an ability
we're all born with. Just like talking, walking and swimming, healing
is something we can naturally do. We just need to learn techniques to
apply it at will, enabling us to help ourselves and others.
During this 2 day workshop, you learn specific breathing, body awareness and
visualisation techniques to amplify and focus life-force energy. This
encourages accelerated healing of mind, body and spirit. Based on the
scientific principles of resonance and entrainment, Quantum-Touch is a
powerful, yet easy to learn method of healing. You will see bones melt
back into alignment without any physical manipulation. It will work
for you too!

See

for more, or listen to an inspiring lecture by the founder of Quantum-Touch,
Richard Gordon. You can find a link to that
here, or contact me if you'd like me to send you a copy on CD.
Holistic Living
Sun 15th November - Mer Ka Barn, Aldsworth, Hampshire
This is a fun and inspiring day, exploring subjects such as meditation,
grounding, chakra balancing, toning (using your voice for sound therapy) and
pendulum dowsing. By the end of the day, you will have learned various
techniques that you'll be able to use in your everyday life, for personal
development and relaxation.
Do you want to feel stronger, healthier, more balanced and in control of
your life? Allow me to help you. I work intuitively, treating
the whole person, mind, body and spirit. Using the following
treatments individually, or combined in the same session, I focus on
restoring balance, improving energy flow, and stimulating healing throughout
the body. These therapies work equally on physical, emotional, mental
and spiritual levels.
Quantum-Touch Energy Healing: Powerful, yet relaxing, this form of
healing is known for moving bones back into alignment without any physical
manipulation. It also works wonderfully well for reducing pain and
inflammation, releasing emotional issues, and much more.
This is also available as
distance healing.
EFT
(Emotional Freedom Techniques): Based on ancient principles of
acupuncture (but without needles!), this involves tapping gently on
particular pressure points to clear blockages. Best known for
overcoming phobias and addictions, this works for a whole host of other
emotional and physical conditions.
Reflexology: A relaxing foot massage with extra power. Particular
reflex, or pressure points on the feet are pressed during the massage to
stimulate healing in the various organs and structures of the body.
Tues 6th October, 13.00-15.00
Mon 2nd November, 19.00-21.00
both in the Library at Hamblin Hall, Bosham
For anyone who already does Quantum-Touch, either as a student or
practitioner. Come and spend a couple of hours with fellow QTers,
practising techniques, sharing ideas, and receiving a treatment yourself.
We'll also do a short meditation, and finish with some distance healing.
On Weds 21st October from 13.00-14.00, I will be at Hamblin Hall along with other therapists, giving free healing to anyone who wants it. No need to book, just turn up. A donation towards The Hamblin Trust would be welcome.
