Hello fellow lightworkers!
I'd like to share my newletter providing you with an informative article, local links, current workshops, and discounts. I know we are all very busy but as people that help, teach, and care for others, we need to make sure we care for ourselves. Choose to come to a Reiki Share, Meditation Group, or Workshop to recharge!
You may also find the 'Growing Your Healthcare Business' marketing workshop of interest. See below for details.
In health and light,
Irene

Introduction
Many people ask, “Why the dragonfly?” According to Ancient Native Americans beliefs, all animals had lessons to teach and had healing or inspirational power. Dragonfly is the essence of the winds of change, the messages of wisdom and enlightenment and beckons you to seek out the parts of your habits which need changing. Dragonfly's magic shows us to see through life's illusions to the pathway of transformation and find our true vision and reminds us to feel deeply so we will have the compassion necessary to help ourselves and others. Simply put, the dragonfly symbolizes change. The Centre is all about change for wellness through education and healing. See below for articles and events, upcoming workshops, special offers and links.
