HOW TO BE HAPPY!
With Professor Patrick W. Jordan
This talk will look at what happiness is, why we do or don’t
experience it and how to achieve it. It is based on the findings of positive psychology. Positive Psychology uses rigorous scientific methodology to understand why some
people are happier than others and what we can all do to become happier. It is
now a well-established discipline with hundreds of leading academics working in
the field and publishing scientific papers. This talk will identify the key principles of happiness and
looks at the concepts underlying them. Simple tools and techniques are given for experiencing
greater happiness in our lives. What better way to start 2012!
Patrick has a PhD in psychology and is a Fellow of the Royal
Society of Medicine. He is a consultant to many of the world’s most successful
companies and has honorary chairs at the University of Surrey
and City University London. He was an advisor to the UK government from 2000-2010.

BODYTALK: HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH IN 2 MINUTES
With Kathleen Knecht
BodyTalk is an energy
based health care system which pulls together the wisdom and philosophy of
acupuncture, chiropractics, kinesiology and insights from maths and
science. It works on the premise that
illness or dis-ease occur in the body because the communication
in the BodyMind has broken down; cells become separate from the whole and
systems are no longer working together or are synchronised which means internal
systems become scrambled and can’t function effectively. We use bio
muscular feedback to work with what is a priority in the body, and by using a
series of tapping techniques on the brain and sternum we help to improve
internal communication between all parts of the BodyMind so that the body
becomes balanced and it own natural healing ability is re-established. BodyTalk is very effective and works by providing deep, long lasting change
rather than short term symptomatic relief. Results are usually seen within a few
sessions and it is safe, simple and non invasive. It also works very well with children
and adults and can be a stand alone therapy or integrates well with other forms
of treatment. Come along and learn a technique to improve your own health and
that of your friends and family.

EMBRACING THE WILDERNESS
With Simon Heathcote
Have you ever felt different, out of place, born into the wrong family? Then you may hold a special place on the hinterland
of our culture. This sense of isolation, common to those who have 8th house planets in astrology, leads to painful self
destruction or a series of rebirths. Chiron, the wounded healer is emblematic: abandoned by both parents and reliant on the
gods, his struggles to heal himself helped countless others but his own wound would never heal. Those who embody this
archetype carry within a sense of exile and longing that drives them to seek wholeness within.
Simon Heathcote spent six years as sex and love addiction therapist at The Priory Roehampton. He has written nationally and
internationally as a travel writer, worked within the men's movement, studied past lives with the late Dr Roger Woolger.
His website www.soulvision.co.uk has been chosen several times as one of the best blogs on the net.

EVOLVE YOUR INTUITION
With Becky Walsh
Our intuition is the key to being able to connect fearlessly and safely
with other people and the world. It allows us to make empowered choices
and decisions. But did you know their are two forms of intuitive
knowing? The most commonly taught is intuition that stems from the ego
part of ourselves. The other form of intuitive knowing is part of the
collective consciousness and the part of ourselves that is love. In this
workshop Becky Walsh discusses how to tell the difference between the
two and how to use this vital intuition for relationships, family,
community and the shift of consciousness.

CELLULAR AWAKENING - HOW YOUR BODY HOLDS AND CREATES LIGHT
With Andy Baggott
Our human potential is far greater than we can possibly imagine and is intrinsically linked to what is unfolding
within us at a cellular level. When a cell is illuminated, the DNA within is also illuminated giving us access to the
universal and ancestral wisdom that is held within its matrix. By matching our microcosm (the cell) with the macrocosm
(universal energies) we begin to unlock our true nature and realise our potential for greatness.
Andy Baggott is a healer, a spiritual teacher, and the author of thirteen books. He runs a busy healing practice,
lectures and teaches and has over 20 years experience of showing people how to heal themselves and create the life of
their dreams.

7 WORDS, 7 WISDOMS, 7 SUBTLE FORCES
With James Burgess & Richard Grey
Tonight
James and Richard will briefly outline the essence and benefits of the
‘7 Words’ system of personal transformation, including some short,
insightful exercises and essays.
7
Words is a new way of thinking about life and all its challenges and
mysteries. It’s a 21st century portrayal of ancient wisdom that
demonstrates how the 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 7 primary words, when authentically understood and
integrated within an emotionally mature individual, creates a ‘field of
energy’ that registers and heals most deeply on the level of psychology:
an inter-play of thoughts and feelings. 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 useful. Its applications range from
self-development and communication to business management and love
affairs. In every case, this new way of thinking brings greater clarity
and increased effectiveness, no matter what the purpose. This is because
each of the 7 primary words touches us very deeply, in fact at the very
core of our being, where simplicity is truth.

ENERGY BLOCKS AND THE HONEY METHOD
With Dr Karen Janes
Do
you remember the operation game where you could pluck out an offending
organ requiring surgery with only a pair of tweezers and a steady hand?
If only it was that easy to get rid of the emotional energy we carry
around with us from the past.... With The Honey Method of emotional
release, it is.
The
Honey Method provides a tool to help you release the old energy stored
within your body that can build up from challenging emotional
experiences. This energy can cause blockages within the fine network of
energy lines, which humans are made from and have running through their
entire body, leading to minor ailments or major problems with your
health and wellbeing.
Dr Karen Janes is one of only a few
Practitioners of The Honey Method and Applied Energy Flow Healing,
worldwide. She is a Reiki Master and Teacher and a Doctor of Clinical
Psychology. She is based at The Well Body Centre in Salisbury having
moved her thriving practice here from London in 2007.

LIVING THE HEART PATH ~ WORKSHOP
With Jo Kenworthy
At
this time of huge change and transition on our planet we can often find
ourselves
feeling lost. Maybe you are feeling like a dandelion seed being blown
around by strong winds that you have no control over? If you have a
dream you may not be sure how to bring it into reality or wanting
changes in your life and needing a framework to follow ? This time of
year is all about new beginnings and planting seeds. Are you ready to
sow yours? Do you have a clear vision of what you want to create?
The
key to living abundantly in every aspect of our lives comes from
within. We all come into the world with a seed intention - a barcode if
you will and when we know how to uncover our hidden codes and work with
them we can move forward confidently and live from the heart. Feeling
the magic more and more and reconnecting to the wonder of life that is
often hidden.
This workshop is experiential
and will create change. You will be able to see the secret of
everything being about us and how to
work with our own alchemical heart wisdom using emotional freedom
technique tools to keep on our sacred path and bring our gift to the
world.
