Retreat

We are just back from an amazing weekend retreat in a place near Matlock called Holloway at a old mill in the village, which was organised by a friend of ours called Brenda Diskin.  The group of people on the retreat were lovely and apart from John who is in our closed circle.  There was a huge array of different workshops including some paranormal, a workshop on chakras as well as one on auras, a Shamanic death and rebirth workshop, which was the meditative part of the sweat lodge ceremony.  Brenda studied shamanic practices with Leo Rutherford.  There was also a trance evening with Daniel and Brenda plus two students Joan from Brenda's circle and John from ours both of who did jolly well as neither of them are used to doing trance in public that is to say away from their circles. .  I did a short workshop of simple psychic art. The wife of the owner presented Brenda with a lovely home made chocolate cake, which was really kind.  Even the weather although it was not kind it was ok.  Especially  after "The Beast from the East" and "The Pest from the West".  I now believe we are being threatened with yet another load of snow from the east this coming weekend, but I am hoping this does not mature as I would like to attend Stephanie Barrows workshop on Saturday, which I mentioned in my last post.  Our next workshop is at Epping  on the 24th March and starts at 1.30 and it is one we will be leading called "Reflections on Spiritual Development".  It is suitable for all levels.  Doors will open at 1 pm and a warm drink on arrival including cuppa soup.  Before than we are taking the Monday service at Woodford on the 26th March (www.woodfordchurch.com), which starts at 2 pm and you are guaranteed a warm welcome from not from us, but the lovely Iris,

Snow, Snow quick, quick go


I do hope that everyone has survived this Siberian blast.  I know we could have well done without it.  We were confined to barracks for a few days, but now the snow and ice has cleared just in time to get us back on track and luckily only had to cancel one workshop.  Angel's gift are being grabbed and given homes hence helping with our funds and we have set ourselves a goal so we can move forward with our project. The hippo was mine and knitted and the other one made by Angel Hic.  One of her little alien men also found a loving home is a friends young son who found a home for him too.  Our next workshop is at Epping  on the 24th March and starts at 1.30 and it is one we will be leading called "Reflections on Spiritual Development".  It is suitable for all levels.  Doors will open at 1 pm and a warm drink on arrival including cuppa soup.  Before than we are taking the Monday service at Woodford on the 26th March (www.woodfordchurch.com), which starts at 2 pm and you are guaranteed a warm welcome from not only, but the lovely Iris.  We would like to recommend a workshop also at Woodford with Stephanie Barrows "Becoming more Spiritual" on 17th March starts at 11 am to 4 pm.  Stephanie is an excellent teacher.  Our next workshop at Epping will be on the 28th April "Working with the Wisdom of Nature" same time as previous workshops.  We are being drawn more and more to Mother Earth and working with her than against her.  Just a wee bit of advanced news Diana Samuels will be doing another Face Reading workshop in May as I know those of you who missed it wanted advanced news,  On the 21st April is our next "Day with Spirit" and we are very fortunate with the array of mediums including Stevie Robinson and Haydn Clarke doing spirit art  plus Susan Griffiths, Ruth Lipkin, Alan Albiston, Alex Camies, Sam Prigmore, Daniel Naughnane and of course myself.  Its going to be an interesting day with therapies head massage with Sandra plus Angel Hic with her crochet and knitted items plus mini workshops, readings and an evening of clairvoyance with Stevie and Hayden. This weekend we are off to a retreat in Matlock with Brenda Diskin who will be doing more of these weekend events during the year.
