Introducing Rani Ramakrishnan

I was introduced to Usui Reiki in 1996 while I was in India. I must confess I was a skeptic at first and went to learn this ancient art with an air of amusement, little knowing that I would be wedded to it for the years to come!

I got my Masters certificate in 2005 from my Reiki Master Bruce Velozo. I owe all my understanding of Reiki to this wonderful teacher and guide. I have since , held classes here in Atlanta and Oklahoma.

I love Reiki and enjoy teaching it as, the more I teach the more I learn. It is an understatement when I say Reiki is my passion. It has become my way of life.

Reiki Master & Practioner
Please Welcome Psychic Artist

Her intention is to bring you to a space of clarity to empower you to create a positive reality for your future.

Maxine Taylor’s New Book Is Here!
Book Signing Party with Maxine Taylor
Sat, January 28, 2012, 4pm – 6pm



When Maxine wrote NOW That I’ve Cast It, WHAT Do I Do With It? in 1975, it was an immediate success.  She has updated it, reprinted it and made it available again.

NOW That I’ve Cast It, WHAT Do I Do With It? takes the mystery out of chart interpretation by simplifying it.  Rather than using someone else’s ideas, this book shows you how to use your own mind to logically interpret a chart.

This book contains a wealth of information on the basics of chart interpretation, and is a must for the beginning student.  It teaches you to quickly develop confidence in your own ability to interpret a chart.

Most importantly, NOW That I’ve Cast It, WHAT Do I Do With It? allows the astrologer within you to express itself.

Please join Maxine on January 28th, from 4-6pm.  Enjoy a glass of wine and some pre-dinner snacks while she autographs a copy of her book for you.



Come and welcome the New Moon throughout the year!

The New Moon ushers in a time of forward movement. It is a time to plant the seeds which bear fruit on the Full Moon. 

 Join Maxine Taylor at the labyrinth at the Meditating Mantis at 7pm on Tuesday, January 24th, for her free New Moon/Healing Ceremony. Bring a list of what you would like to create for yourself. We will burn our lists and release them to the Universe. The ceremony will conclude with a healing for everyone present.





Now Offering Two New Classes from 
Katherine Walker, Certified Hypnotherapist

Self Improvement Class

Sunday, Jan. 29, 2012, 12:30 pm-2:30pm

Cost: $50.00

The Pressure Is On!  OMG!!  Resolution time is upon us Again!!!  Stop Smoking…Lose Weight…Promotion…Find a New Job…Improve Self Confidence…Take That Trip by Plane that you’ve never been able to do before… Exercise…Improve Self Image…and the list goes on and on.

 You try really hard and you do well for a week or even a month.  But then something happens and you realize either immediately or maybe a few weeks or months later that you have not accomplished your goal again!

Learn about how and why the subconscious mind sabotages you and leads you back to the behavior you want to get rid of and behavior that perhaps is actually extremely unhealthy for you.  More importantly, learn how to tame and control your subconscious instead of it controlling you! 

2012 – The Year You Change Your Life!!!!!


AND


Relationship Issues Class

Thursday, Feb. 9, 2012, 2pm-3:30pm

Cost: $50.00

Have you ever wondered why everything was wonderful in your relationship and then one day, it was like she/he just didn’t care any longer?  Are you “chasing” your significant other?  Are they “withdrawing” from you?  Does your significant other want to be with you every single minute of every single day?  Are you feeling as if there is no where you can go to be quiet and peaceful?  Find out why all these things happen.  Find out how to revitalize your relationship. 

Are You Tired of Having the Same Relationship Over and Over with Different People?

 

Each participant who attends the class will receive an e-book which explains in detail why we behave the way we do in relationships…not just sexual relationships, but all relationships.   




Chakra Workshop
Sat, February 4, 2012, 10:30am – 1:30pm

Cost: $65

Come and discover your Chakra System, the energy centers of the body, what they are, how they can be healed and the difference it can make in your life. We will do this through light energy meditations, sound and crystal therapy.
If you are looking for a deeper sense of balance or to open to your own intuition, clearing and healing the Chakra System is a wonderful way to do this!
 
 Joanne will offer personal direction and loving assistance for each participant.



Visions and Intentions

Sunday, February 5, 2012 1pm-4pm

Cost: $30

 

You have a vision, a dream, a desire. You want to live a life aligned with all that you are. So what stops you?

 In the first half of the class, we’ll talk about the laws that are always in operation, the energetic interferences that get in the way, and spiritual techniques for getting clear. You’ll have the opportunity to –

-      Expose limiting beliefs that keep in place “what is” and stop you from living out your inspired ideas

-      Uncover blocks that need to be released

-      Learn how to stay energetically aligned, focused, and positive.

In the second half, we’ll do a clearing exercise – and then, you’ll create a vision board that reflects all that you are here to be and do. You won’t be the same! Materials provided.

Oneness Blessing

Now Available the Second Week of the Month

1st & 3rd Wednesdays 5pm-6:30pm
2nd Wednesdays 6:30pm-8pm

Cost:$20

The Oneness Blessing is a transfer of Divine intelligent energy. The Oneness Blessing process works by creating a neurobiological shift in the brain and awakening the energy centers (Chakras) in the body. This shift in consciousness frees us from the suffering created by the mind, balances the body’s natural, healthy and healing energies and attunes the brain with the fields of unity, bringing an end to the illusion of apparent separation. Once initiated, it is a gradual Awakening process that leads naturally to a lasting state of Oneness, Inner peace, Causeless Joy and Well-being.

As we sit in a circle, Brenda will pass three specific blessings to each individual person in the group.

Blessings,

Brenda Teagarden, Oneness Blessing Facilitator

Initiated at Oneness University, India in March 2006

NOW INTRODUCING!

Our Resident Integrated Energy Therapy® Master - Instructor


Joanne Cohen

Joanne will soon begin offering sessions and classes in this profoundly peaceful and transformational healing modality.

What is Integrated Energy Therapy®?

We call it “Healing with the Energy of Angels®”

Integrated Energy Therapy® (IET®) is one of the next generation - hands on - power energy therapy systems that get the “issues out of your tissues” for good!  Developed at the Center of Being, by Stevan J. Thayer, IET uses the violet angelic energy ray, as brought to us through the nine Healing Angels of the Energy Field, to work directly with your 12-Strand Spiritual DNA. IET supports you in safely and gently releasing limiting energy patterns of your past, empowering and balancing your life in the present, and helps you to reach for the stars as you evolve into your future. We chose the term “Integrated” in our name to convey our healing vision of “integrating the pain of the past, into the power of the present, to bring about the joy of the future”. We have been privileged to see Integrated Energy Therapy live up to this vision.
