Saturday, October 11th, 1:00 to 4:00 pm

Hypnosis for Self and Soul

with Joseph Mancini, Jr., Ph.D., CCHt., M.S.O.D., M.S.W.

Hypnosis is a naturally occurring process of the human psyche, harnessed by shamans, initiates of the ancient mystery schools, meditators, and those who engage in guided imagery, biofeedback, EMDR and other mind-altering techniques. Everyone goes spontaneously into a hypnotic state several times a day by listening to music, daydreaming, or engaging in any other activity that requires focused attention – this is altered awareness. With hypnosis the individual can bypass the limitations of the critical, conscious mind to enter the subconscious where old patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving may be transformed and where the person can connect to the SuperConscious Mind, the source of vast creativity and talent, accurate intuition and profound wisdom.

In this workshop, after we discuss misconceptions about hypnosis, participants will learn how to create their own self-hypnosis scripts to change an unwanted pattern in the subconscious. Methods for putting oneself into the hypnotic state and emerging from it will also be discussed. We will end by using hypnosis to tap some of the participants’ positive, subconscious memories to bring them a profound sense of well-being.

This workshop will be lead by Joe Mancini, Jr., Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, who helps individuals with their personal, business or transpersonal development. In addition to hypnosis for mild depression, anxiety, and other issues, Joe offers Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Medical Support Hypnotherapy, and many kinds of regression, including Past-Life and Natal Regression.

Cost: $25.

THURSDAYS

MASSAGE & RAINDROP TECHNIQUE AROMATHERAPY

with Cheryl Moore
Treat yourself to the ultimate peace and self-caring with an amazingly and therapeutic
Raindrop Technique Aromatherapy session.

The Raindrop Technique, developed by D. Gary Young, N.D. and a Lakota medicine man almost two decades ago, uses a sequence of nine highly immune enhancing essential oils. They are dropped like rain from a height of about 6 inches onto the spine and then lightly massaged in using various hand to body techniques. This stimulates energy impulses and disperses the oils along the nervous system throughout the entire body.

We all carry immune system depleting viruses and bacteria. Essential oils applied to the spinal column are absorbed through the nerves that feed the entire body. Wonderfully soothing, nurturing and relaxing, the Raindrop Technique can work its benefits in the body for days, weeks or months.

Cost: $85 One hour Raindrop Therapy session
         $70 One hour Swedish/Deep Tissue Massage
         By Appointment. Call 301-631-JOYS (5697)

Cheryl is a Nationally Certified and Licensed Massage Therapist, having graduated from The Baltimore School of Massage in 2001. Her focus is on incorporating essential oil aromatherapy into her work which her experience has shown, promotes a deeper level of healing and relaxation. Cheryl began practicing Raindrop Therapy after having a profound, personal experience of its healing and energetic properties. She feels everyone can benefit from the application of these specific essential oils, dropped carefully along the spine. She loves sharing her passion of healing and of the oils and hopes to be able to share that with you at Ten Thousand Joys!!

ASTROLOGY READINGS

by appointment with Shannon Beatty.

Please call the store for details.

Natal astrology: a key to the toolbox of your soul Understand planetary influences on your life Open the lid! Everyone’s life has places where the water flows, and a few rocks. Natal astrology takes note of the positions of the heavenly bodies in the solar system as they were when you were born and assesses how they relate to the tools in the metaphysical toolbox of your soul, to your personality, emotions, your purpose in this lifetime. What gifts and conditions were yours at birth? A natal chart reading can confirm what you already know, and give you new insight to understand yourself.

Shannon Beatty began her study of astrology at seventeen. At twenty-three she held a B.A. with a minor in philosophy, including studies in mysticism and perspectives on the Tarot and I Ching. She has taken formal classes in natal and medical astrology, and in thirty years she has cast and interpreted numerous charts. She is a mother, research scientist, calligrapher and photographer; she is known to ride horses, fly sailplanes, sew, garden, read, write, and laugh. What makes you tick?

Please provide your birth data (date, time, place) and $50 deposit to Ten Thousand Joys. Your comprehensive natal reading includes a hand-cast chart, a written summary, and a one-hour recorded consultation for $125.
