Standing in Power
Reiki for a changing world
|
Frans Stiene spoke about how the system of Reiki can help you to stand in your own power, your own centre, so that we can be more stable in an ever changing world. This stability and openness is necessary if we want to create a better world. As all the great old masters point out, change comes from within.
Frans has been teaching the system of Reiki globally for more then 20 years now and trains with Japanese priests in Japan to gain a deeper understanding of Mikao Usui's teachings and how they can guide us in this modern world. During the talk we will also be practicing specific exercises to gain a direct experience of standing in our power. Michelle Courtney Berry "Can We Truly Use Mindful Energy to Create Equity, Manage Chaos & Change - No Matter What?" The answer is emphatically YES we certainly can, but we have to dig deep and not forget our truest purpose, our highest aim, our Big WHY! In this address, which is a call-to-action for us to unite across differences, through true listening that values what differentiates us, while honoring, too the similarities that unite us. Together, we will address how to get clear, stay focused, and regroup after we rebound from discouragement, disappointment, depressed (dis-ease), and disconnection. Let us unite for the good of the local lands in which we dwell, so that we may heal the world as we are called to. |
Frans was incredible! Pretty sure I'm still vibrating from the chanting! And Michelle was amazing, so much of what she shared struck a chord and resonated deeply! I was so very grateful!

Dana Cunningham
|
Pianist and composer Dana Cunningham's artistic voice is stunningly unique and unmistakable. Hearing her music, it becomes clear that she listens, carefully – for what the soul longs to hear – an unexpected next note, chord, or melodic line, a recited poem – sounds of hope and joy, and the discordant, darker threads within all of us. In her own words, "May the simple light move in and through us, and may music help open the door."
Dana studied piano at The Blair School of Music while completing her B.S. in Communication from Vanderbilt University. Originally from Texas, Dana now lives in the White Mountains of New Hampshire where she has created five critically acclaimed recordings. She shares her offerings through concerts, retreats, and private solo and collaborative performances. Read more about Dana Cunninghom |
