This month, we will focus on working with the aura and spiritual energy to heal and strengthen the brain. The brain is the most complex and mysterious organ of the human body. Modern science is discovering so much, yet there is still a great enigma around how thought and consciousness is created. Metaphysically, brain is the instrument through which the mind flows. Keeping the brain strong and healthy is essential for it to be an effective instrument for mind. The evening will consist of: A presentation on how to work with spiritual energy to heal and strengthen the brain You will be seated in small groups of 3 recipients per Certified Healer, each with a minimum of 5 years of metaphysical training. Specific divine light rays will be directed into your chakras to release negative energies. The divine light will then be used to uplift your consciousness wherever it is needed. The healers will then work on your nervous system to release blockages and revitalize your nerve body. Drawing on a 4,000 year mystical tradition and built on the clairvoyant experiences of Barbara Y. Martin and Dimitri Moraitis over five decades, these aura healing techniques have been endorsed by medical luminaries C. Norman Shealy and Dr. Richard Gerber. “Spiritual energy is the single biggest key to building and sustaining health, because it connects you to your source of health.” Barbara Martin & Dimitri Moraitis The Healing Power of Your Aura Lauri is a certified Associate Teacher and healer through Spiritual Arts Institute having studied at the Institute for over ten years.
