NEAL'S YARD
With Stephanie Nerva
"My name is Stephanie Nerva, Independent Consultant for Neal's Yard
Remedies. Neal's Yard Remedies was born in 1981. We like to think of ourselves as
pioneers. Today awareness and interest in natural remedies, skin and body care
are on the increase. But when we opened our first shop in Covent Garden 30
years ago, we were one of the few pushing against the synthetic chemical
approach to skin and health care that had been adopted by much of the industry.
Our vision was to bring the expertise of the apothecary and our holistic approach
to health and beauty to local people and their communities.
At Neal's Yard Remedies, we're driven by the passionate belief that
health and beauty should be more natural, less synthetic. This passion, and our
firm belief that it's down to all of us to protect our precious planet, is at
the heart of everything we do.
Health is the most important thing to us. When formulating and making
our products, we follow the precautionary principle – which means not using
anything we believe could cause you, or the planet harm.
I will have an array of products for you to sample, show you how to do a
mini facial and give you all the information you need to having an natural
organic skin care regime, and talk about the importance of using natural
products."

METATRON
With Amanda Ellis
Why is Archangel Metatron
positioned as the one residing over of all other angels and archangels? Why is
he placed at the top of the Tree of Life in Kaballah? Why is his energy the one
linked to the ascension of the planet, and of our own spiritual evolution? Why have I never heard of
him? Or, why can’t I stop hearing his name mentioned?!
As we go through 2012 you
will hear the name and feel the energy of Metatron more and more. He lies
behind the change and transformation sweeping our planet from the streets of
Egypt to the change afoot in the Money Markets, Russia, and much much more….
If you think angels are just
‘fluffy and pink’ then think again – Metatron stands for TOUGH LOVE – forcing
through change for the ultimate good of ourselves and the wider planet. But he
won’t step in and help you transform personally unless you ask. His energy has been described
by Amanda’s many clients as ‘A Loving but strict Father’, ‘A Headmaster’ as
well as a ‘Loving Friend and Mentor’ – he wants to help each of us be the person
they wanted to be before they incarnated, stepping into all our power, beauty
and gifts. Metatrons energy is THE energy of 2012 and beyond – come and hear
how to incorporate it into your life now.
Amanda is a fully qualified
Metatronic Healer, as well as being a Colour Mirrors Teacher and Therapist. She
offers Colour Readings, Healing, Spiritual Mentoring and Attunements to
Metatron's energy. She is currently compiling a book on her work and what she
has learnt so far. She works from a practice in Southbourne, Bournemouth.

7 WORDS, 7 WISDOMS, 7 SUBTLE FORCES
With James Burgess & Richard Grey
James and Richard will briefly outline the essence and benefits of the ‘7
Words’ system, including some short, insightful exercises. 7 Words is a new way of thinking about life, with all its challenges and
mysteries. It’s a 21st century portrayal of ancient wisdom that demonstrates
how 7 fundamental life principles can most simply be described and embodied as
one of these 7 primary words: No, Hello, Thanks, Goodbye, Please, Sorry and
Yes. Each of these, when authentically understood and integrated within an
emotionally mature individual, creates a ‘field of energy’ that registers and
heals most deeply, at the very core of our being, where simplicity is truth. In
other words, each of the 7 words has an effect upon the mind and the heart,
which translates into how we think and feel. The method is universally applicable, bringing greater clarity and increased
effectiveness, no matter what the purpose.

HOW TO LIVE IN THE HAPPY COLUMN
An audience with Sheela Hagan
"This is an exciting time to be
alive! So much will change over the next 20 or so years. I've been blessed to have
already experienced many aspects of life, some felt 'bad' at the time, but all
experiences are part of this wonderful journey. As a young child I thought
everyone could see the beautiful light beings around us all. I assumed other
children could fly above the roof tops and look down at life going on below.
In my teens, I
decided I could read palms, I'm not sure how I knew or why. So with the naivety
of my years I read many palms, until one day I became frightened at seeing a
woman's fatal illness looming. She was very kind and asked me to continue,
which I did, but vowed never to read palms again. Instead I turned my attention
to feeling colours and sensing the needs of animals.
Then, like many
mediums, I became busy raising a family and running a business in alternative
medicine, my mediumship skills were to lie dormant for many years.
Then
tragedy struck my family, I suffered post-traumatic stress syndrome and had a
breakdown. During this wretched time I was shown the way back to living by my
guides and angels. I was nursed, nurtured and began a healing process that
would last for years (and still continues)."
Sheela is now a well known and
much loved medium in the Bournemouth area, experienced in readings, running
meditation groups and workshops as well as running the very successful
Lightworker Lunches and Suppers and she is coming to talk to us about
"Living in the Happy Column" and much more.

SOURCE COMMUNICATIONS FOR 2012 AND BEYOND
With Magenta
Pixie and Jessica Woods
What
is so significant about this year of 2012? Is there a particular date we need
to get ready for or should we stay in the now moment and go with the flow? What
is a Source Communication? Is it really so important to connect to this and how
do we do it?
Introducing Magenta Pixie and Jessica Woods whose mission is to aid and support
others through this pivotal time for humanity, the global consciousness raising
shift which many call "The Ascension." They work not just to tell
people of the potentials that exist for them in their future but to aid them in
creating the future that they want.
They both communicate with the higher self "source" frequency, in
their different ways, which has bought them to a point in their lives where
they share a similar positive future vision for Earth.
They will be talking about their personal experiences in making the source
connection and discussing the messages and visions they receive. The main focus
of their talk being the planetary Ascension process and how this affects us
individually and collectively.
They are both active clairvoyant, intuitives working with individual clients
locally and internationally, in groups and addressing a global audience through
a variety of media. Magenta has 24,000 subscribers and over 200 channelled
videos on her you tube site. Jessica is currently working on her first book. They
both live in
Dorset. Jessica runs her groups
and workshops from 'Destiny' in Highcliffe and Magenta lives in Verwood.
Wednesday 29th February
NON-DUALITY
With Tara Davina Brown
Non-duality
is in the vein of the ancient eastern spiritual tradition of "Advaita
Vedanta" which has a meaning of "not two". How this translates
into the message of non-duality is quite simply that there is only this moment,
and within this moment there is only ever oneness in appearance as many,
playing the game of life.
We seek in life to discover who we really are. The
desire to become whole and the wanting to return "home" is ever
prevalent. We search in many ways, through spirituality, through relationships,
careers, and personal achievements, always striving to become better, more
successful, more spiritual, more perfect, even more enlightened. All this is futile,
you are already perfect, whole, and enlightened by the very nature of who you
are. Awaken now to the Oneness, to the presence of Being and recognise that you
are Free. Free to be…
You are absolutely perfect just as you are, even in
your imperfections.
Whatever you believe about yourself, about your
life, whatever you think you know, is simply thought. When you believe
thoughts, when you get caught up in them, you lose sight of who you really are
and become lost in the story, in the story of "me", the ego identity.
You become lost in the lie, in the dream of life.
Tara invites you to
look to see who you would be without your story, to find that entity which you
label "me" and investigate where it resides. Remove the labels from
your life and see things as they really are. This seeing is pure and
unconditioned, beyond all concepts of how life should be.
Wednesday 7th March
MUNAY-KI
With Juliana Freeman
This talk will be
an introduction to The Munay Ki initiatory rites that guide us towards the
embodiment of our Divine selves. These potentially life-changing rites connect
us to many lineages that includes healers, wisdomkeepers and earthkeepers, who
will support us on our journey through and beyond 2012. The Munay-Ki are part
of the ancient Inca tradition that have generously been offered to us in a form
we can easily assimilate especially for this time on earth. In sacred space we
will begin to connect ourselves to these energies during the evening.

SPIRITUAL ECONOMICS – LOVE AND MONEY
With Jon Witterick
Jon Witterick, founder of the getoutofdebtfree.org website explains in a light hearted
presentation, (which appeared on Sky TV recently), just how fraudulent the
global financial system is and compares it to a game of Monopoly. He also sheds
light on how our spiritual growth can suffer as a result of this and offers a
unique insight into dealing with money. Realise it is no coincidence that the
financial system is at the point of collapse, as we begin the exciting year of
2012. He predicts that we will need a new and fair system in place, if we are all to move forward and offers advice on how we can
prepare for this transition and help to create a new world.

COME ALIVE WITH QUANTUM
LAUGHTER
With
Joe Hoare
We can all learn to laugh
more. When we use laughter as a practice we engage our whole consciousness in a
light and delightful way. It is one of the most connecting practices, profound,
uplifting and in its highest form, ecstatic. Research has shown that people who
laugh a lot enjoy better health, better relationships, and are far better at
coping with stress as a good laugh every day produces Oxytocin in our body, the
hormone with the feel good factor. Research has also shown that we laugh 30
times more when we are with other people than on our own. This evening is for
anyone who wants more joy and laughter in their life.
