Length And Strength: Balancing the Shoulders, Saturday, August 22, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm; 5 CEhr; $85.00 half price for students not needing certificate. Our focus is on balance—most people's pecs are already too strong compared with their scapula retractors so we'll learn how to find weak muscles and support greater strength and chi-endurance with Tibetan postures. Balanced strengthening does not leave you feeling sore the next day. You will receive, learn the difference between short and weak muscles, and remedies for both. Muscle groups we will review: inward and outward rotators, scapula elevators, retractors and depressors. Please wear clothing that allows full range of shoulder motion.

Releasing Cellular Memory II—Interviewing Cells and Following Their Directions; Sunday, August 23, 2009, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm; 5 CE hr; $85.00, half price for students not needing certificate. Prerequisite: Releasing Cellular Memory I. In Level I we met the cells, which are like citizens of a Nation. In Level II we learn to ask them good questions such as, "which cells are in the greatest need?" "Are the symptoms meant to serve the whole person?" Do you have a message for the whole person?" "What do you need different, to be healthy and productive?" "What can I (therapist) do in the next half-hour with my hands?" By talking with cells and doing what they suggest, we find immediate changes in muscle tension, breathing, and positive comments from the recipient. Becoming trusted with cells enables further conversations with the person's DNA which may harbor this-life trauma, ancestral, archetypal or past-life attachments. Asking is a very simple method that allows any practitioner to have the effectiveness of a specialist, because the part of the person guiding you is the world's foremost specialist in that area of their own body.

Awareness of Melting; Friday, August 28, 2009, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm; 4 hr; $68.00, half price for students not needing certificate; Prerequisite: ability and experience feeling muscles melting. In the Melting Muscles and Unwinding Muscles classes, when you felt the recipient's muscle melting you were encouraged to ask, "Do you feel the muscle melting?" This brings the recipient's conscious awareness to a process that is normally subconscious. In this course we take the next step; both giver and recipient aware of melting, aware that the other is aware of the same thing. Three therapeutic benefits of identical awareness are: a) giver can modify instantly for greater effect, b) directions to the roots of the situation are clear to the giver, and c) recipient has undeniable experience that they have changed. àMost of the class time is spent at massage tables: melting muscles with awareness-prompting questions and in-the-moment feedback. Time for questions during and between trades.

Medical Intuition; Saturday, August 29, 2009, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, 5 CE hr; $85.00, half price for students not needing certificate. handouts will be emailed when you register--please read in advance. The human body communicates simlarly to animals, nature, and through symbols and metaphors, as in poetry and literature. Intuitive information arrives and is processed by your brain all the time, it is simply discounted or relabeled by your Left brain. You will learn ways to use your left brain as an assistant rather than the one in control. In partner exercises you will hear, see, smell, and feel intuitive information arriving.

Reiki Level One, Sunday, August 30, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, 5 hr, $155.00, Includes flash cards for hand positions, Level I e-book, and a kanji calligraphy certificate. e-book will be emailed when you register, please read in advance. Rediscovered in 1914 by Mikao Usui, Reiki is an ages-old natural healing method. Reiki is transmitted from teacher to student by an attunement given into your chakras and palms of your hands. Level One is all you need to offer Reiki professionally to the public. In the class you'll practice giving and receive, with time for your questions and concerns, and you'll receive the Level One Reiki Attunement. You'll learn both the hands-upon body and the hands-above body methods, and how to give Reiki to yourself. Because Reiki begins to flow as soon as you think about it, many LMTs add Reiki energy to their existing massage sessions. This course is open to all people regardless of licensing or not, anyone who would like to do provide healing and comfort to friends, family, animals, the Earth, and oneself. Receiving the Reiki attunement is healing and enlightening for the student. Reiki does not replace but complements all medical treatments including chemo, radiation, and makes transition more peaceful. Reiki is very effective as self-care for alleviating physical stresses in your body, and mental, emotional and spiritual resolution of old patterns. Reiki also empowers goals, abundance, starts broken cars, assists first aid, connects you with nature, animals, and boosts creativity. A fun, low pressure class open to anyone, licensed or not, children 7 and up welcome with permission.
