Alchemy of the Heart:  Level 1 

Tuesday evenings: December 2, 9, 16 and January 6
(no classes on Dec.23 and Dec.30)
7pm – 10pm, Commercial Drive location, Vancouver
Course fee: $120
Early Bird rate is $110 if paid by November 26

When does your heart close?  What wounds do we still carry with us?  How can we heal these precious tender parts?

Compassion, Joy, Understanding, Forgiveness and Unconditional Love... These are some of the Teachings of the Heart.  If we authentically cultivate these vibrations in our daily lives, transformations occur in surprising and inspiring ways.  We can learn to keep our hearts open, fearlessly and with magical results. 

We will practice sensing the subtle movements of the heart chakra.  We will learn to use this perception for self-healing and growth.  You will see it alter your relationship dynamics and your life.

Foremost in level 1, we will focus on the path of Self-Love.  Nurturing a true commitment to Self is a path of honour, non-judgment and bliss.  It is the greatest relationship one can have.
You need not feel alone ever again, if you fall in love with Self.  This is not about Narcissism, it is about the healing that allows you to truly be an instrument of Love.

We will also learn a powerful meditation and healing called  "The Sacred Kiss" that is part of the XOX temple project. 

Join us for 4 weeks of intimacy, healing and expansion...

Alchemy of Manifestation:  Project Class

6 Wednesday Evenings
December 3, 10, 17, January 7, 14, 21 
(no class on December 24, 31)

7:00pm til 9:00pm
Commercial Drive location, Vancouver
Course fee: $130
Early Bird rate is $120 if paid by November 19

Bring on the magic, flow and creative joy!!  In this course, we continue to examine the Laws of Manifestation as we each bravely launch a personal project that is witnessed and supported by the group.  It can be in any form or can simply be a list of things you wish to experience during the session.

Be it the advancement of your career, the transformation of your relationship, the healing of an old wound, the beginning of your dream lifestyle, the creation of a new business or the deepening of your artistic exploration, this project class will be an opportunity to focus on some life goals while being nurtured in a loving garden of like-minded souls.

Applying the spiritual concepts covered in the Fundamentals class (level 1), we will practice what we know in a practical manner during the creation of each participant's project.  (it is recommended to take the Fundamentals course prior to this project class)

The course content is also guided by the specific questions that participants bring up along the course of their unique projects.  As a result, the content of each project class will be different and participants may choose to take this class again at a future date with a different project in mind.

Using a project as the point of focus and experimentation, we can have a clearer understanding of our thought patterns and habitual emotional grooves.  However, the end result of the project is less important than the teachings inherent in the journey.  Along the way, we are training our sensitivity to the energy realm.  We are learning to be more aware of how we are channeling energy in the various areas of our lives. 

Join us as we evolve together in a supportive, loving and playful group setting!

Epic Alchemy Program:  Alchemy of Expression

Exploring the fine Art of Communication...

Do you wish to better express yourself through your art or through your words?
Are you interested in refining your ability to convey your feelings and thoughts?

Where in your life are you most challenged or misunderstood when you need to communicate?
At work? With certain types of people or specific friends? With family? With your partner? With your children? In front of groups or large audiences?

Have you ever found yourself betraying your own intentions or integrity? Do you find yourself failing to express what you really mean?

Be it friendship, romance, business, public speaking or artistic endeavours, your ability to communicate is key. When you learn how to honor your Truth and Creativity, you will be equipped to honor others. Also, "creative blocks” or “writer's block" can be a thing of the past as you discover how to access your well of infinite inspiration.

In Alchemy of Expression, we will learn to speak our truth with more clarity, eloquence and confidence. Prepare to share your essence with the world...with more ease, magic and love.

Presentation:  Alchemy of Community

Have you discovered the power of Community?

If not, how does one create this? This workshop explores the inherent healing and the magic that occurs when a group of people unite as a collective, as a village. Even a small group can create community.

We will look at the practical, emotional and spiritual backbone of such an entity, and how to consciously nurture and honor it.

Conscious communities are gaining momentum all over the world. In Vancouver and beyond, there are large networks of creative communities who are actively producing many unique events, projects and dynamic spaces. In short, we are manifesting realms in which we can thrive, not just survive!

In the last few years, I have co-created with over 14 cohesive communities as a performance artist, workshop facilitator, community builder and event coordinator.  Community Building is an important aspect of my life, because I am having fun while being of service.

This is a private presentation/workshop with a downtown eastside organization.  Please contact me if you wish to organize something for your company or organization!
