Soul Retrieval
SOUL RETRIEVAL is an ancient tribal form of healing which is as completely relevant for us modern humans as it was for our ancestors. Due to trauma, be it physical, emotional, mental, parts of the soulleave. Sometimes they don’t come back - they go into non-ordinary reality and may be stuck or lost, or may not want to return. The resultant soul loss can affect us in a variety of ways - illness, emotional or mental problems such as depression, lack of energy and motivation or simply a feeling of being ‘not quite all there‘. Many of us are suffering in this way in our increasingly stressful and alienated world. We can call back our lost soul parts in many ways - as many as there are healing methods. One way is to allow another person to travel into non-ordinary reality and bring back the lost parts for us. This is SOUL RETRIEVAL. The basic method of soul retrieval is the Shamanic Journey. The practitioner gains experience in consciously travelling in non-ordinary reality, building relationships with spirit allies who act as guides and helpers in the quest to find the soul parts. The lost energy is taken hold of, brought firmly back to ordinary reality and blown into the person. Soul Retrieval often has amazing results in healing on all levels. On this weekend we will create sacred space within which to safely explore the journey, connect with our spirit helpers, and begin to perform energy retrieval. Previous experience of shamanic work is great but not essential. A follow-on advanced course for those who want to take things further will being Feb-March 2008, date to be confirmed. Pip Waller teaches an introductory weekend, which will enable you to learn an amazing shamanic healing technique that can transform lives for the better. Those who wish to take it further can go on to an advanced course, meeting four times over a nine month period. This advanced course is particularly suited to those who wish to be practitioners of this healing method, but may will also be of interest for personal and spiritual development.

Reiki Attunements
Reiki is also known as the USUI SYSTEM OF NATURAL HEALING (Usui Shiko Ryoho). It was rediscovered in the late 1800s by Dr Usui who studied ancient texts for many years, then climbed a sacred mountain and fasted and meditated for twenty-one days, after which he received a vision, and an initiation from the God-force, or Spirit. Dr. Usui named the healing energy REIKI, meaning UNIVERSAL LIFE ENERGY There are three degrees of initiation in Reiki – the first degree opens you up to Reiki and healing through the laying on of hands. The second degree teaches the art of distance healing, as well as strengthening the first degree. I recommend waiting at least one month after first degree initiation before taking the second degree. The third degree is the Masters – after this you can initiate others. You need to have been practising Reiki for some time, and be very dedicated to this path, in order to take the third degree. The first and second degrees are taught in two half days over a weekend. Welcome to Reiki. May it bring you as much joy and healing as it brings to me!
Space Clearing with Lucy Harmer
Space clearing is used to release all the past energy and memories of events created by previous occupants of a space, whereby all the energy patterns and the emotional cycles are released. This leaves you with a clear and vibrant space filled with a higher frequency of astral light, thus enabling you to manifest your intentions and dreams in all areas of your life. Lucy is an outstanding space-clearer, and an eloquent and entertaining speaker. Lucy Harmer also gives professional training in Space Clearing for those who want to take things further. See Innerelf for more information about Lucy.
