MARCH 2007 PROGRAMME

  Monday 5 March

The Body Remembers by Alison Baron.

Following a trauma the body can remember the event and the emotions.  Sometimes these can be buried deep in the brain and in the cells of the body.  When we walk the spiritual path these traumas can block our progress and sometimes we need help to heal the past.  This talk will show how the body remembers trauma and the techniques to deal with the memories and the emotional aspects of the past.  Learning how to ‘put the brakes on’ is a crucial aspect in being able to prevent re-traumatisation.  If the brakes are under your control you can process the trauma feeling safe.

  Monday 12 March

Tai Chi with Mike Bailey .

Mike is an established teacher in adult education in the local area, teaching Tai Chi, a gentle way to exercise.

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese form of co-ordinated body movements focusing on the cultivation of internal energy or ‘chi’, promoting both mental and physical well-being.  In the practice of Tai Chi the student becomes revitalised, relaxed, tolerant, self-confident and stronger and healthier in both mind and body.  Unlike most forms of exercise and sport, Tai Chi does not rely on strength, force and speed, making it ideal for people of both sexes, young and old alike, whether strong or weak.  It is this approach that makes Tai Chi such a unique art and one that brings benefits in many areas.

  Monday 19 March

An Open Discussion Evening. 

An opportunity to share experiences and ideas in an informal setting in small groups.

  Monday 26 March

Amanda Solk, a qualified Assemblage Point Adjuster. 

AP is the point in the body where the life-force assembles in embryo, then, as we grow up, it has its position in the navel and as we mature, it rises to the centre of the chest, its optimum position where it should reside.  Shifts in the AP can be caused by traumas of abuse of any kind to the mind or body.  However, the AP can be re-positioned, a truly life changing treatment.

Introduction to Dowsing with Eric Swan

Dowsing is reported to date back approximately 7000 years but origins are still unknown.  In Europe, it was known for dowsing to be used in the Middle Ages to find coal deposits.
