Intermediate workshops 2010: spiritual development and self awareness
Have you every thought that there must be more to life?
Why not try something new and exciting that will assist you in finding inner peace and fulfillment that is not dependent on chocolate, wine or shopping?
You are welcome to attend any or all workshops, although the timetable has been designed to build on the knowledge gained at previous sessions.
It is my hope that during these workshops you will be able to expand upon the basics you have already learnt and further develop your spiritual and self awareness. Once we understand who we are and what makes us tick, then our confidence develops. These are ideal workshops for working mediums, fledgelings, practicing therapists and healers as well as everyone striving for a better future by commening a journey of self discovery.
Booking is essential on a first come, first served basis.
For an informal chat and to register your interest, please contact Wendy (by email or telephone 07889 981154).
All sessions include group mediation, practical work and the topics listed below.
Each workshop will take place on the last Wednesday of every month from 7.30-10.30pm:
Wed 27 January: Be in tune with yourself and others!
A very brief outline of counselling including how to listen correctly, when and how to ask questions, how to understand body language, how to get in touch with yourself.
Wed 24 February: Speak up with confidence!
Gain confidence and experience to help you speak in public from informal to more formal settings, from a consultation with a doctor to addressing an audience. In this session we will cover some helpful hints to aid you in developing your ability to speak with confidence. These skills wil help you in many areas where extra confidence is required.
Wed 24 March: How to get your point across!
Learn how to organise your thoughts so that you can get any point across with confidence. This session can help build day to day confidence and effectiveness in asserting yourself, as well as improving your ability to deliver presentations, speeches or formal addresses as appropriate. This technique can be used to help you organise information to get the best out of situations which could be intimidating, eg a visit to a specialist. So, whether you want help in addressing your GP or a Sunday service, this session is for you.
Wed 28 April: Stay calm!
Techniques that help one stay calm in a pressured situation. If you find you have got the skills but when under pressure nerves get the better of you - this workshop can help.
Wed 26 May: Building on your psychic and spiritual ability!
Looking back at all covered in the last 4 months and in previous courses, bringing them all together to enable you to develop your own spiritual gift. For some people this might be recognising and acting upon intuition, and for others it may be full blown mediumship.
Wed 23 June: Using your psychic and spiritual ability!
Prior to the practical aspect of this session, we will discuss a variety of methods and techniques that mediums can use, in order to encourage your personal gift to develop. As usual both new and experienced mediums are on hand to foster the your development and discuss ways that you feel would help you personally.
Wed 28 July: Demonstration of Trance
By this stage in your development you will probably understand what trance is, and may or may not have seen s demonstration. In this session you will be given the opportunity to try it for yourself, and time permitting to see a medium demonstrate trance.
Wed 25 August: Prayers and the power of thought
A closer look at the various types of prayers that are used today, and how the power of thought can be harnessed. There will be an opportunity for you to write your own prayer that could be heard in the future within a Sunday service if you choose.
Wed 22 September: Meditation explored further
You know what it is and why it's benefitical but now is the time to examine the various types of meditation and the duties of a group meditation leader such as prayers for protection.
The information gained in this session can be used to help you to prepare your own meditation with which to lead a group meditation in the future (opportunities to gain a meditation certificate will be provided at an additional future session for those who want to).
Wed 27 October: Truths about religion
The aim of this session is to enhance a feeling of closeness to God (however you perceive him/her) by looking beyond the boundaries of existing religion. During this session we will try to uncover how man has manipulated Christianity, and discover information that has been hidden from us for Centuries. We will also look at various other Saviours that have been worshipped before Jesus.
If you already know about or have an interest in a World religion, you can volunteer to gather information for the next session (see below).
Wed 24 November: Religions of the World
Those who volunteered to look into a particular religion after the last session will be invited to share what they have learnt about the beliefs and cultures they explored. The aim of the session is that through knowledge we all become more tolerant thus enhancing our own spiritual understanding and development.
December (date to be arranged): Use your skills!
In this session, everyone will be given the opportunity and encouraged to demonsrate their acquired skills. They may choose to deliver an address, give a reading, practrice psychometry, chair the session, lead a group meditation, lead a healing prayer, etc etc. If the group decides, the session will be followed by a 'bring a plate' Christmas party!
