Gemstones: Identification, Sacred Geometry and Healing Methods

with Cynthia Roedig

This is a 3-part mini-tour through the world of gemstones. Part 1 discusses why we collect stones and value them so highly, and suggests the stones for a user’s Top 10 starter collection. Part 2 explains the sacred geometry of grid patterns—a beginning guide to what they mean and how to use them. Part 3 focuses on the healing modalities of stones, in particular, the “Power of 3” using a combination of chakras, stones, and affirmations to bring about an easing of discomfort and promotion of healing in body, mind, and spirit. Bring a notepad--lots of info!

Born in and currently residing in the mineral-rich state of Arizona, Cynthia has had a life-long love and appreciation for the world of minerals and crystals. Collecting specimens began early, and over the years the concepts of metaphysics joined the science of the chemistry of stones. With the addition of Reiki training, Cynthia helps clients choose stones just right for them. On occasion, she receives and gives messages to people from their pocket stones.

Brain Injury Management

with George Glass

Over 10 million people in the U.S. sustain a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) or Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS), every year, 50% of which go undiagnosed. If you were to add stroke, ADD, ADHD, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, MS, CP, infections, viruses, and emotional traumas such as PTSD, which are injuries to the brain, the numbers would be much higher. We will provide information on what brain injuries really are. We will provide you with options on how to manage these conditions, preventing your own frustrating “winding path” to finding answers.

George Glass has been in healthcare for over 30 years. Currently George and Lori Ann Glass own and operate Mountain Hyperbarics and Glass Bodywork in Durango, Colorado. Brain Injuries and brain health have become a passion of George and Lori Ann since Lori Ann’s own diagnosis of a traumatic brain injury sending them down a “winding path” of brain healing.

2:00 – 3:00

Do You Believe in Miracles?

with Trisha Dolan

What Trisha knows is that when she has a powerful intention to live as she is whole and healed, the seed of intention that is tended and nourished can flower into coincidences, synchronicities and miracles that heal the body, boggle the mind and lift the spirit. Trisha will be sharing the meaning for the acronym M.I.R.A.C.L.E.S. When these “coincidental” luminous events happen to her and the people in her life, it reminds her that there’s more going on than meets the eye, there is unseen energy responding to our deepest and most focused desires. Einstein said, “Coincidences are God’s way of remaining anonymous.” For Trisha, they are God’s way of saying, “You are not alone.”

Trisha is a Psychic, World Renowned Healer and Clear Channel Medium.
