Experience Divine Light healing, performed in a supportive group setting, as you are guided through a highly effective technique to receive spiritual energy to heal and transform your life. Whether you are seeking physical, mental or emotional transformation, Divine Light healing is a full-spectrum aura therapy. Each month, we will offer insights into the spiritual healing principles with the aura and Divine Light. Join us on the Autumnal Equinox which is great time to release negative energies and revitalize your aura. We will be working with one of the most powerful yet gentle spiritual healing rays for the body and nervous system. Participants will be organized into small groups and receive a direct Divine Light healing from our trained spiritual healers. Plus, there is a special healing offered on the nervous system to release stress and tension. The aura is key to healing, because it is the place where you generate the spiritual energy to manifest health. Drawing on a 4,000 year mystical tradition, these techniques were developed by Barbara Y. Martin and Dimitri Moraitis and built on the clairvoyant experiences of Barbara over five decades. They are taught in their award-winning book "The Healing Power of Your Aura" which has been endorsed by medical luminaries C. Norman Shealy and Dr. Richard Gerber.
