| E=mc2 Chakra Empowerment |
What the e=mc2 do we know about vibrational medicine?"
International speaker and author Evelyn Mulders is coming to Salmon Arm
to do a two-day workshop on Vibrational Medicine. |
| |
This two day 12-14 hour workshop will explore the implications of the fourteen meridians and the seven basic energy centers of the body. By helping you to connect to your potential and give you the information and the tools necessary to allow the song of your soul to be heard. This fascinating and timely workshop is for those that want to develop more deeply the understanding of vibrational medicine and energy anatomy.
Since the movie "What the bleep do we know" there is a growing awareness of the importance of intent in our daily lives. The movie made us aware of the significance of signaturing water with positive vibration and because our bodies are made of mostly water we can imprint ourselves with positive vibrations, which have a balancing effect on our entire energy field, including the meridians, chakras and auric field. Because our belief patterns are held in our energy field system, we can change the stress response on our bodies by offering the positive vibration to our body through color and sound.\ and various other healing vibrations. The movie also gave us the knowledge that our energy field holds on to belief themes that may no longer serve us and through balancing the energy systems by way of vibrational medicine we can shift our thinking to be more congruent with our life path. One of the secrets to cope with stress and to staying healthy is to keep the meridians, chakras and auric field balanced. Vibration is the key that balances the energy field and vibrational medicine restores the healthy vibration to the energy body allowing the physical body to rebalance itself.
The two day Vibrational Medicine Workshop is an experiential workshop which teaches how to set goals for your intent, why vibrational remedies work and when should we use them, as well as basic kinesiology skills. This workshop instills an awareness of the seven aspects of healing vibrations which are found in aromatherapy, flower essences, sacred geometry, ancient symbology, crystals and gems, music, colour, light and thought. These seven aspects of healing vibrations interact with the physical and energetic body to produce full spectrum vibrational healing for chakra balancing. Aware or unaware, visible or invisible these vibrational medicines impact us powerfully. This is because in these seven aspects are found the true essence of our being. Every individual who works to raise his or her vibrational level to enter into a clear and balanced frequency is contributing to the alignment and enrichment of this world. The time has come when these adjustments into attunement are imminent. Its one thing to theorize quantum physics- this workshop gives an opportunity to actually experience it. |

Coming to Penticton this Fall
| Cranio Sacral Reflexology |
with Dr. Martine Faure-Alderson
Introduction, Embryology/CNS/Automatic Nervous System,
Cranial Movement/Membranes/Lesions of CRI, CSF Fluid,
General Cranio Sacral Treatment, The Cranial Nerves. |
 Cranio sacral is the name given to the approach to osteopathy developed by Dr Sutherland 100 years ago. He saw how the bone structure of the skull permitted slight motion and noted that restriction of normal motion due to injury, trauma or disease could affect health. The cranial osteopath works gently with the bones in the skull and associated bodily systems to remedy such conditions. The Reflexologist can achieve the same result by combining an understanding of cranio-sacral therapy with conventional reflexology, since the bones of the feet reflect the skull and sacrum exactly.
The body’s inner health is perceived through a gentle pulse called the CSRI. It arises at the core of the body within the brain and spinal cord and the fluid, which surrounds them. It is a tide-like rhythm, which expresses itself throughout all of the body. Areas of congestion and restriction in function of any part of the body can be felt as an imbalance in its motion and treated.
A reflexologist has a highly developed sense of palpation and is trained to detect and assess the dynamic state of the body tissues;’ Both within the feet and the rest of the body. By using the gentle techniques of Cranio-Sacral Reflexology” the practitioner is able to release the strain patterns found and support the body in its attempt to retum to an ideal state of balance and function for healing to progress.
Cranio-Sacral Reflexology is suitable for everyone, from newborn babies to the elderly including those with fragile and acute medical conditions:
 Baby and Infant Conditions, Colic, sucking difficulties, reflux Premature babiesRecurrent ear and throat infections-Irritability, insomnia, excess crying,-Development and behavioural delay/ disorders, Poor eye coordination, Difficulties in turning the head Birth trauma, Adult General Trauma and Conditions, - Sinusitis, Stress related illness, Jaw disorders, Bronchitis and Asthma, Insomnia, Depression, Migraine, Tinnitus, Back, shoulder and neck pain, Whiplash, and sports injuries.

Mrs Martine Faure Alderson is a fully qualified Osteopath with 40 years experience in private practice. In addition, in 1970, Mrs Alderson was awarded a Doctorate in Homeopathy and General Medicine. She is also qualified in Acupuncture, Herbal Medecine and Reflexology.
She has a school in Paris and has taught Postgraduate students of reflexology since 1968. She holds her seminars throughout Europe and teaches in America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
"I am please to offer an unique clinical reflexology course on the cranial-sacral system. This course enables the reflexologist to enhance the circulation in the head and the cranial organs through treatment of the feet. The cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) is treated, stimulated and transported to all parts of the body and the 12 cranial nerves are treated individually, following a special technique via the autonomic nervous system. These techniques are also extremely useful to help stress and whiplash injuries and can be added at the end of a conventional treatment." |
