Spirituality Special Interest Group


Explore your own spirituality through connection to self,

to each other and to all that is.


Wednesday January 8th

 

Our guest is Chris Tonge talking about ‘Exploring Consciousness’.


Chris will talk about his own realisation that reality is not quite what we think it is. Chris will share three people’s work that have influenced his thinking to build a new understanding of consciousness. 

 

The SSIG is a group of questers interested in the reality beyond the physical boundaries. This encompasses a range of diverse topics including spirituality, consciousness, dowsing and divining and much more. 


Each month we hear from a guest speaker about their own unique journey or recent insights and discoveries, in a safe environment. 

There’s an opportunity to share your own insights

on the subject too. 


There’s no charge to be a member of this group but it only works through your generosity in offering

to give a talk occasionally on something

that you would like to share. 


To join our group please contact Kate Smart at kate.tudorhall@gmail.com

 

In February Richard Spencer describes ‘Some Awakening Practices’

as we move forward in our own spiritual development. 

Please note that the meetings are not recorded.

 

Malvern Dowsers

 

During the winter season Malvern Dowsers holds a number

of Zoom meetings for members only. These meetings allow members to meet fellow dowsers and speakers on screen

from the comfort of home. 


We began our season with Melanie Lorien talking about

‘Spooky Action at a Distance, and our next speaker on

January 8th at 7pm

is Sarita Sol

talking about using the lemniscate or infinity symbol

to heal ourselves and manifest our dreams for 2025.

 

Sarita runs retreats in France and has been teaching the use of the lemniscate over the last few years. 


She will demonstrate how to 'walk the eight' and how this

powerful practice can be used in a variety of ways. 

It is particularly good if you have noticed that you are stuck

or need to release something as it re-patterns

our body at a cellular level. 


In some ways you might describe it as similar to walking a mini labyrinth. You can use it after clearly setting an intention and it manifests benefits very quickly when we

move our consciousness from head to heart.

For more information about Sarita and her work visit her website https://www.sarita-sol.com/about

 

In February Dawn Kirkham talks about ‘Sensing the Soul of Vancouver Island - A Canadian Earth Energies Dowsing Adventure’. 

Our talks are definitely not to be missed!

"He who would valiant be

'gainst all disaster

let him in constancy follow the Master

There's no discouragement,

shall make him once relent

his first avowed intent

to be a healer" Variation by CJ


There are many images of 'healing'. Perhaps the grail knight strides boldly down the centre of hospital ward, the light from his solitary candle falling on the beds of the newly healed.


" Uncle, what ails thee ? "


The search for healing, or to be a healer, may be long and without immediate success, but there are an increasing number of books addressed to the quest. One which I am substantially impressed by is


Healing and Meditation : A Doctor's Journey Toward Their Integration by Paul Dieppe, ISBN 978-3-032-61059-7 (£33.20)


The book is excellent. If very short of time start at Chapter 7.
