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. Each month, we will offer insights into the spiritual healing principles with the aura and Divine Light. 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 stresses and tensions. Spiritual Arts Institute on Facebook / Instagram
