 Summer into Fall
lotus garden
Photograph of Lotus Blossom by Lynne Meloni

The lotus flower is one of the most ancient and deepest symbols of our planet. The lotus flower grows in muddy water and rises above the surface to bloom with remarkable beauty. At night the flower closes and sinks underwater, at dawn it rises and opens again. Untouched by the impurity, lotus symbolizes the purity of heart and mind.

Lynne Melone, Photo-Artist is available to take photos at special events. She can be reached at 508-222-3963. She also has photographs for sale.

 

There will be no Grandmother's Empowerment this month (September 4th). The next one is scheduled for October  2nd.  Hope to see you there!

RELEASING STRESS IN ANY AREA ~ FINANCES, RELATIONSHIPS, AND HEALTH

When:  Saturday, September 25, 2010
Time:  1:00pm - 3:00pm
Where:  Healing Circle, 166 4th St.  Providence, RI
Cost:  $34.50

Are you interested in learning an effortless and more effective approach to having a more successful, happier, and wealthier life? Releasing Into Freedom and the Sedona Method are simple, powerful, easy to learn, easy to use techniques that show you how to tap into your natural ability to let go of any uncomfortable or unwanted feelings in the moment.  They can be used day to day, moment by moment in real life situations, allowing you the opportunity to face whatever happens with a new feeling of inner strength, ease, and confidence.
Through self-inquiry and simple exercises, you will experiment with tools that allow you to uncover your natural ability to let go of limiting beliefs, negative emotions, and unhealthy patterns.  Releasing into Freedom and The Sedona Method are based on the premise that we are already whole, complete and perfect as we are - limited only by the concepts of limitation that we hold in our minds. This will benefit anyone who has a sincere wish to change or improve their lives. Everyone has the innate ability to let go and participants will leave with the ability to release the feelings, doubts, and negative thoughts that stand between them and a happier life in all areas.  By dealing with worries, doubts and fears, you will see opportunities instead of challenges and let go of resistance to change.
