Essential Oils for Relaxation, Health, & Healing
with Eric Lindemer, CMT, Reiki Teacher
 
Essential oils don't just smell good (and as a matter of fact, some don't!) they also have powerful healing properties. After all, they are concentrated plant extracts, and plant components are still the basis of many medicines and remedies throughout the world. Through the sense of smell, essential oils also have direct access to our nervous systems and affect our physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual bodies. This presentation will include an overview of the theory & practice of aromatherapy, easy & useful techniques for home use, and the opportunity to experience therapeutic-grade Young Living essential oils. Information will also be available for ordering high quality Young Living oils for those interested.
For a product & company preview, visit Eric's website, www.skyeinstitute.net & click on "essential oils".

LECTURE BY JUDITH NADELL at 8:30 p.m.:
HOW YOUR SUN, MOON & RISING SIGNS
INFLUENCE YOUR SOUL'S PURPOSE

In this lecture, Judith Nadell will talk about how the characteristics of your sun, moon and rising signs
influence and motivate your soul's purpose. 
The Sun rules the person's basic personality; the Moon rules the emotions, family life, especially the formative years from birth to 18; and the Ascendant (Rising) sign rules how the person looks and how he/she projects him/herself to the outside world.  This will be a lively discussion filled with lots of information and humor.

Judith will look up each person's Sun and Moon sign if you do not know them.  Due to time limitation, she cannot calculate the Rising (Ascendant) sign; so if you have your astrological chart, bring it along, so you can tell Judith in what sign your rising sign is located.

Judith is a sun in Aquarius; moon in Libra; rising in Gemini --- all air signs which talk about talk, talk, talk --  and disseminating lots of good, useful, motivating information  to help you live in greater rhythm with your soul and allow you to align yourself with your soul's purpose in a more wonderful and expressive way.
