Animal Spirit - Understanding Signs and Messages

Do you pay attention to the animals that show up in your dreams, meditations or even your waking world? Curious to what messages they might have for you - or how to unfold the meaning and message in the moment?  Ever wonder if you have your own personal animal spirit guide? Want to know how to incorporate their messages and energy into this crazy journey we call life. What about nature totems (those guides or beings who aren’t animals in the science world)?  Along with a great discussion, class will include a guided meditation to see what animal spirit or nature totem might be in your midst and also what message they have for you.  2  hour class.  Possible guest instructor with Angie that night! No Class Limit (Minimum 6 to hold the class)

Chakra and Energy Balancing 101

Perhaps you know about Chakras, those little energy centers in your body that work to keep you physically and emotionally healthy… or maybe it’s all new to you and you’ve only heard the term and have limited knowledge about them.  As a Pranic energy Healer and certified instructor, I want to help dispel the mysteries!  In Chakra and Energy balancing 101, we’ll discuss just what these energy centers are, what their jobs are for your physical and emotional health, what happens when they’re not functioning at their optimal level and more importantly - we’ll do a ½ hour guided meditation to actually clear and balance those chakras out!   2  hour class 

Instructor: Angie Welch

Date: Tuesday,  May 20  6-8pm

Cost: $30 per student

No Class Limit (Minimum 6 to hold the class)
