May 29: Introduction to Send Back Technique. Thursay, 7-10pm. Your unconscious internal beliefs are the basis of your "internal operating system". They run your physical body systems and rule your behavior, thoughts, perceptions, and emotions. If negative in nature, they will bring you pain and negative life outcomes without you ever knowing why. Some beliefs have been taught to you or have come through your own life experience, but others have been passed down to you through your ancestry, nestled in your DNA. Born right at The Mesa Healing Center, Send Back Technique is a method of finding and releasing life-limiting beliefs held on the mind/body level that cause us to live in fear, uncertainty, and resistance to the flow of Life while replacing them, one for one, with life-affirming ones that are in alignment with the wisdom and knowing of our Soul. This is done by healing with, for, and through your entire ancestral line all the way back through your first caveman ancestors. It literally sends healing to the Souls of your ancestors, no matter where they may reside. This healing then comes forward to you through the tiny physical bits of your ancestors that you carry with you every day-- your DNA! Swap negative patterns and beliefs for positive ones with the love and help of your ancestors. With Brad and Kate Silberberg. Fee: $30. Included in this workshop:

Jul 12: Synergistic Energy Connection Levels I and II (combined) Saturday, 10-4pm. If you are interested in raising your energy level without taking energy from others and also clearing a major block you may not even be aware of, this workshop is for you. As you fill yourself with this divine, universal energy, it will assist you to live in peace and harmony with all things. No need to fight others for your energy or lose energy to others. In the past some people got their energy boosts by attacking others in anger, (road rage, bullying, etc), through alcohol, drug or food addictions, joining religious cults, etc. Many have lost energy through being a victim, martyr, etc. The SEC is a new way to build up your own energy by connecting with God/Universal Life Force Energy. This is a gentle, more loving way to receive energy without hurting yourself or other people. It is a never ending supply that comes from within you. Facilitated by Joan Campbell. Fee: $85 for both levels combined. Must RSVP 724-947-3097 or email. LEVEL I: This workshop is based on an energy practice from the angels/guides about a universal hookup of energy starting with Mother Earth and including ArchAngel Metatron (representing Universal energy), Jesus (representing the Divine Male energy) and Mother Mary (representing the Divine Female Co Creator energy). Each person will be encouraged to use their own symbol for each, such as Buddha instead of Jesus. Some will resonate with Quan Yin instead of Mary. During this experiential workshop you will practice each connection individually then meld them together to make the powerful Synergistic Energy Connection. Joan will then place her hands on each persons head and receive information about a block that you may or may not be aware of and with your permission the guides will remove the block. The group will make the Synergistic Connection; join hands with each other and Joan, to replace the negative energy that was removed with this synergistic light energy. LEVEL II: of the Synergistic Energy Connection adds another dimension and power to the Synergistic Energy Connection Level I. Two new, powerful connections will be added to the energy of the four. These two energies, your soul and a brilliant charismatic Teacher/Healer lifetime, will assist you to connect more fully with your psychic abilities. To further that connection each person will also receive an attunement from spirit to assist them to receive information for others in the group. During this workshop we will have ample time to practice receiving information from spirit about a block that is holding other workshop participants back from coming fully into their own power.

The Peace Shield Bundle was opened in early 1996 in a special ceremony in Taos, New Mexico to begin the sacred mission of the Peace Shield. Contained within the bundle is a sacred prayer pipe and a large elk hide upon which the Peace Shield is drawn. The "Seven Fire Prophecy" of the Anishinabe (Ojibwa) tribe foretold of this time to the ancient people. Seven prophets spoke of seven Fires, spiritual chapters or ages, and described things which would happen to the people during these times. In the 1970's we entered into the Seventh Fire. The Seventh Prophet said, among other things, that native ways would be honored and the elders would once again speak. Also, the light skinned race would be given a choice between two roads, to continue traveling the road of destruction or to choose the road leading to the lighting of the Eighth and final fire, an age of peace, love, joy and oneness. Now that the Seventh Fire of the Anishinabe/Ojibwa traditions has been lit, Rainbow Eagle is responsible for teaching the traditions of the peace shield. At this time, all of the traditional wisdom and truths which he has been given are to be placed into this Peace Shield to increase its power and restore peace on our Mother Earth..

(Weve expanded this workshop to a full day as Send Back has grown in scope and complexity.) Your unconscious internal beliefs are the basis of your "internal operating system". They run your physical body systems and rule your behavior, thoughts, perceptions, and emotions. If negative in nature, they will bring you pain and negative life outcomes without you ever knowing why. Some beliefs have been taught to you or have come through your own life experience, but others have been passed down to you through your ancestry, nestled in your DNA. Born right at The Mesa Healing Center, Send Back Technique is a method of finding and releasing life-limiting beliefs held on the mind/body level that cause us to live in fear, uncertainty, and resistance to the flow of Life while replacing them, one for one, with life-affirming ones that are in alignment with the wisdom and knowing of our Soul. This is done by healing with, for, and through your entire ancestral line all the way back through your first caveman ancestors. It literally sends healing to the Souls of your ancestors, no matter where they may reside. This healing then comes forward to you through the tiny physical bits of your ancestors that you carry with you every day-- your DNA! Swap negative patterns and beliefs for positive ones with the love and help of your ancestors. With Brad and Kate Silberberg. Fee: $60. Included in this workshop:
