Take a moment to know yourself as a being of limitless potential, a seed. Notice that there is a time when you simply need to rest, to lay fallow; then a moment when you seek change, movement begins. Your roots unfurl, traveling downward, drawing sustenance.
There is a sense of deepening, of place. You reach up seeking light, expression, developing your form. There is timing and a rhythm to this, to grow, to emerge, to evolve, and to become firmly anchored on this planet sustained and nourished, exploring light, shadow, and the dance of being. We blossom; we bear fruit, and begin the process anew.
Come listen, ask questions and learn! We will speak of the subtle gentle strength that flower essences bring us to transform and bring balance to our lives. You can reach Melinda at mjf.flower.essences@gmail.com

Kate Mucci played harp in Las Vegas for nearly a decade, recording four CDs and entertaining literally millions of people in Sin City. It was exciting and enjoyable, but it was during the times when she played for only one person that her work was most rewarding.
ANCIENT CODE OF TONES
Using her knowledge of the healing power of music, Kate began working with people suffering from MS and Parkinson's disease, and also played for patients as they were transitioning. These experiences led her to co-author with her husband and partner "The Healing Sound of Music" and to begin working with The Healing Code of Tones, a powerful tool which enables her to personalize harp recordings for clients who seek healing through music. Kate's ongoing mission is to bring the joy of music generally and the harp particularly, to people who might otherwise never have the opportunity to experience what it can do for them physically and emotionally.
Kate believes that society as a whole can benefit when individuals become more balanced and calm through the healing sound of music. Visit Kate's website.

THE GENTLE VOICE
How can one describe Michael Mirdad and his amazing work? He is both an incredible spiritual teacher and yet also one of the world’s most intuitive counselors and healers.

In a single event, you can find some audience members experiencing the greatest teachings and insights in their life, while others are brought to the deepest tears, and still others laughing from his wonderful humor. During his lectures, it is not uncommon to see angels and beings of light surrounding him or to
experience deep emotional healing. He does physical and emotional work with many hundreds of people per year and nearly all claim to have life-changing experiences. Michael is a profoundly spiritual being and truly an anomaly. He is well learned but is mostly self-taught.

One thing is certain: he is a modern day miracle-worker, channeling God’s love in a most unique way.

CHINESE ENEGERTICS
CUTTING EDGE SELF-HEALING TECHNOLOGY
It is one of the most cutting-edge energetic methods for self-healing, regeneration, and accelerated performance improvement. This method of energetic comes from the Shaolin monastery of China.

The heart of Chinese Energetics is the Yuen Method created by Dr. Kam Yuen. In this century, Dr. Kam Yuen, 35th generation grandmaster and his master teacher decide to break from tradition to teach the secrets of the monastery to the general public because they believe that the principles and methods of accelerated self-healing and regeneration belongs to everyone not just to the monks of the monastery.

BLUE STAR
A story of Faith and Synchronisity
Robert Harding, an ordinary salesman leading an ordinary life, just doesn't fit in. Not bonding with his peers, and with a constant, yet sublime feeling that something more than his routine life awaits him, he plods along like so many others. He is an island unto himself in many ways; never understanding why things just "don't seem complete" in his life.
Then, it happened. He has a vision of blessed Mary, looking like The Lady in Clearwater, Florida, that mysteriously appeared on the side of a building. This vision signals the beginning of a complete life makeover for the author. Inexplicably drawn to a quest to the U.S., Harding travels from London all the way to the home of the Hopi Indians. Along the way, he encounters fascinating people - veritable guideposts - and spiritual signs along the way that help him in his vision quest.
The quest? It is one surely many others feel; a tangible "knowing" that there is more to life than meets the eye, but one upon which few act. Join author Robert Harding as he undertakes a spiritual journey that changes his life, and could change yours - forever.
Join us as Robert discusses the story of his amazing journey. You can learn more about Robert at his website.

YOU ARE NOT GOING CRAZY.... YOU ARE JUST WAKING UP!

Today’s challenges can easily snowball into crisis proportions, sometimes picking up career, health, and relationship debris as they roll uncontrollably downhill. At such times, people often feel lost and confused, trapped in a vortex of emotional and spiritual darkness, and may wonder, “Am I going crazy?” A new book by world-renowned spiritual healer and author Michael Mirdad, aptly titled You’re Not Going Crazy...You’re Just Waking Up! The Five Stages of the Soul Transformation Process, reassures readers that these feelings are perfectly normal and even essential to a process of soul transformation. This “how-to” guide to spiritual mastery goes on to show that these stages are in fact powerful opportunities (albeit in disguise) to achieve the fulfilling life we all seek.
“In the greatest spiritual teachings, this often unnoticed progression means that one’s soul is starting to shake things up,” explains Mirdad, who developed the concepts in the book from personal knowledge as well as from his 30 years of experience as a counselor and workshop facilitator. “The soul is beginning to question your reality and guide you to a higher level of consciousness.” The transformation process includes five stages: dismantling, emptiness, disorientation, re-building, and a new life, all of which are designed to assist people in becoming active participants in moving toward a life that resonates with the highest good. Mirdad likens it to childbirth, where the pain can seem endless, but it is quickly forgotten as a new mother gazes lovingly into the eyes of a new life.
This small-just 90 pages-but powerful book is intended to be read slowly, with thought and reflection. Prayers and exercises are included in each chapter to assist the reader through each stage of the process, ultimately connecting them to the “light at the end of the tunnel.”
