Lenormand Tarot Readings
Saturday, December 3 & Sunday, December 4 @ 12nn – 4 :00pm with Ryan McKeon
Saturday, December 10 & Sunday, December 18 @ 12nn – 4 :00pm with Ryan McKeon
“I use the Lenormand as a conduit to provide practical, situational advice for a wide array of questions without the woo-woo. The readings tend to be less about future outcomes and more about either giving a bird’s eye view of a situation or suggesting how best the questioner can move forward through their particular situation. What’s the difference between Tarot and Lenormand? Tarot cards are better as answering ‘how’ or ‘why’ questions. They contain 78 cards that are organized into the Major and Minor Arcana. These cards can be read individually and their placement in the spread has significance. Lenormand cards are better at answering ‘what’ and ‘where’ questions. They contain 36 cards that can be classified as positive, neutral, or negative depending on the context of the reading. They are meant to be read in combination with multiple cards, rather than individually.
There was never a singular, clearly defined moment in my life that led me to the cards and plainly said, “You’re declared to be a reader!”. Instead, it was all of those conglomerate serendipities occurring in my daily experiences that would subtly nudge me saying “hey, dummy, check this out. Might be important for you!” Eventually, I started to listen. Serendipity is said to account for one percent of the blessings we receive in life, work and love while the other 99 percent is due to our efforts. I find this to be the perfect description of how these lovely cards work. They present concrete, pragmatic avenues and suggestions the questioner might utilize to move their situation in a positive direction. In a sense, they cut through the unnecessary ramble and get straight down to the nitty gritty. As your reader, I strive to provide a present, comfortable space where you and I can explore your questions and, together, gain some insight into your situation to send you off with a sense of hope and empowerment.” Cost: 15 minutes – $30; 30 minutes – $50

Yoga Nidra
Sunday, December 4, 11, & 18 @ 7pm – 8pm with Megan Ellis
Yoga Nidra is a sleep-based meditation known as psychic sleep. Using a series of breath, body, and awareness techniques, YN guides the brainwave states down towards sleep, where thoughts naturally distance themselves. Here we can easily enter the gap between us and our thoughts and re-establish the knowing that we are more than the mind. In YN, the body sleeps, the thinking mind is at rest, but consciousness is active. This practice profoundly releases excess tension in the body and benefits many symptoms of illness. Yoga Nidra is powerful for relieving feelings of anxiety, chronic pain, depression, traumatic stress, addiction, and insomnia. Cost $15

Talking Circle
Monday, December 5 @ 6:30pm
Talking Circles are most commonly used in the Native Cultures and ours will be modeled after that. The Circle will be facilitated, and we will use the talking stick technique. The most common type of circle is a simple sharing circle, where people just share whatever they have to say. There is no particular purpose or theme, and many fascinating side-trips often happen. The sharing circle is also an excellent introduction to ceremonies and other tools. Another common circle is the healing circle. By healing it means that healing occurs through talking. This is generally guided by the conductor and will be convened to deal with issues that are bothering people. These issues may be specific, or the circle may be called to simply allow everyone to get any problems off their chests. Our circle will be both a sharing circle and a healing circle. We hope you join us for this informal way of helping to make sense of the everyday items that we all face, allowing us to move forward independently and collectively more easily on our paths. Not familiar with the Talking Circle process? No worries, we will explain the process, ground rules and more so that you feel comfortable and safe.

Sound Bath Experience
Tuesday, December 6 @ 6:30 – 8:00pm
A Sound Bath is a deeply immersive, full-body vibrational experience that intentionally uses sound/vibrations to invite gentle yet powerful therapeutic and restorative processes to NURTURE ONE’S BODY, MIND, and SPIRIT. The SB features an intuitively guided meditation using a variety of sounds/frequencies that are introduced in succession using multiple instruments including Himalayan and crystal singing bowls, rain sticks, drums, chimes, tuning forks, and more. The sounds introduced during a Sound Bath are an invitation into a deeper state of consciousness, an opportunity to unplug from external stimuli, to connect with your inner awareness, and to gain perspective on what’s going on within yourself. The goal of the experience is to invite deep rest and relaxation and explore self-inquiry and self-discovery. This is a group experience featuring unique and intuitively guided aspects including a guided meditation as part of the experience. Cost: $11

Theta Healing Sessions
Thursday, December 15 & 29 @ 12nn – 4pm with Gina Anayana
The Theta Healing technique is a meditation technique and spiritual philosophy – not specific to one religion but accepting them all – with the purpose of getting closer to the Creator. It is a training method for your mind, body and spirit that allows you to clear limiting beliefs and live life with positive thoughts, developing virtues in all that we do. Through meditation and prayer, the Theta Healing Technique creates a positive lifestyle.
Each Theta Healing® session with Gina is a unique experience as it is Divinely Guided.
They include the sharing of Unconditional Love and Healing, in addition to identifying and removing the negative belief systems that Gina is guided to address in that session with the client.
Using Kinesiology, the client will be tested for the existence of negative beliefs and programs so that they can be accessed from the subconscious mind. The key core beliefs are then transmuted by the Higher Consciousness into belief patterns that will serve the Highest Good. Shifting these negative belief patterns releases blockages that could otherwise lead to physical and/or emotional dis-ease.
Theta Healing® sessions are gentle and relaxing. Clients remain fully clothed sitting across from the practitioner. Sessions last about one hour, after which you July feel a lightness and energy shift. The practitioner acts only as a catalyst and witness to facilitate your personal transformation and inner healing; God is the healer. Cost: Individual 1 hour – $144, Couple 90 min – $188, Family (2 People) 90 min – $188

Inner Sensory Shamangelic Breathwork
Thursday, December 15 & 29 @ 4:30 – 6:30 pm with Gina Anayana

This process provides a safe and loving container to shine a light on deep-seated emotional issues, core wounds and limiting beliefs. It offers profound and lasting shifts enabling one’s radiance to shine through, positively affecting all areas of your life. Sessions run around 2 hours for in person ceremony.
Breathwork opens pathways to rejuvenate cells and organs. It places your mind in the present moment. And it connects you to the oneness of the universe. Breathing becomes not only a physical process but a mental and spiritual one as well. In breathwork, you learn to understand the sacred power behind breathing.
Our body is a super smart instrument, and it connects you with the unconscious part of your psyche that you can activate through breathwork techniques. With the specific intention you set before the breathwork, your body knows where to take you to receive the healing energy.
THIS is THE MOST POWERFUL Clearing & Awakening Session. Deep Shamanic breathing has been found to facilitate profound emotional releases, open new channels of awareness and clear toxicity in the body. Inner Sensory Breathwork incorporates Anahata Ananda’s Shamangelic TM Breathwork methods, guided visualization, deep breathing techniques, vibrational sound, soulful music, energy healing, Shamanic tools, crystal therapy and light body expansion techniques to facilitate a personal Sacred Journey into the depths of your own soul and BEYOND!!!
Each ceremony provides a safe and loving container for you to go inward to shine a light on deep-seated emotional issues, core wounds and limiting beliefs. It offers profound and lasting shifts enabling one’s radiance to shine through, positively affecting all areas of your life. Cost: $66
