Healthy Mind
May 9, 6-8:00 p.m.
Having entered into a consciousness of Love and living fully from the heart, it's important for us to be in conscious awareness of coming from the heart at all times. How often do we close our hearts? How often do we sacrifice for other people. These circles are about opening your heart and self love. Do you want more Love in your life? Come and find out how opening your heart your life will shift in ways you can't imagine. Linda arrived at this stage in her life through her outer journey as an Interviewer Host, Life Coach and Motivational Speaker and through her inner journey of breaking through personal experiences that were blocking her from growth, fulfillment and Love.

Spiritual Abilities 101 with Darshini
May 18, 1-3:30 p.m.
Having FUN... yet learning skills that you can use in everyday life—business, negotiation, with your children, etc. This workshop covers several exercises and techniques that are geared to increase, support and enhance the natural SPIRITUAL abilities in communicating in different aspects that we ALL have—which 98% of us don't ever use on a conscious basis. These exercises will also define which you are—a stronger receiver or a sender, highly important as all your communication is based on how you connect/communicate and how we are perceived/received by Others. Learn how you can avoid confrontation and increase your versatility in how you communicate with yourself, children, family and others! Other techniques and exercises will include shifting your perception and thinking to allow a higher level of receptivity and expansion of your underutilized cognitive senses. All these techniques are designed so you could practice on your own.

Fee $55. www.Darshini-inspirit.com.

May 14 — Crystals, chakras, auras and color vibrations. How they are all connected. Bring your favorite crystal for show and tell!

May 21 — Palmistry—Your hands are a picture of who you are and where you are going in life. You don't have to be psychic to learn palmistry, but the more you do it, the more sensitive you will become.
