This expo is a way for us to raise awareness that each healing that happens is a contribution to healing our planet and creating world peace.

By participating in this healing event, we can each do our part to create the peace in our world that so many of us long for. Come join us for this inspirational event!
There will be a variety of healers explaining and/or demonstrating their healing modalities, and vendors selling healing products.
In addition to this, there will be group events held in individual rooms of the Center, such as crystal bowl healing, sound healing and a healing prayer group. A schedule of these events will be available at the Expo.

A Course in Miracles
2024-06-05 19:00 - 20:30 UTC | France
A Course in Miracles: each week we begin our exploration by reading the short introduction which includes these words “the course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim however at removing the blocks to the awareness of Love’s presence which is your natural inheritance.”
Has any other subject been written or sung about more often than love? Isn’t it the organizing principle of all religions? So popular and prominent in our daily discourse, yet so elusive. And don’t we yearn for an alternative to fear, guilt and hatred, suspicion and divisiveness?

Whether a beginner, a student of many years, or an on-again/off again inquirer, you are invited to join us in seeking to learn how to love and enjoy being in love. It’s not a solo performance. Only together, is love manifest.

Join us for an introduction to Family Constellations — a practice for healing intergenerational patterns and connecting with the strength and wisdom from our lineage.
In every family there are heroes, heroines, villains, and outcasts; people who are easy to love, and people who feel impossible to love. There have most definitely been great triumphs and death-defying difficulties.
We will be exploring how these people and events influence our lives today. We’ll learn how it is possible to come into relationship with the treasures in our family lineage that have been hiding in plain sight. And we will activate a closer relationship with those ancestors who can can most empower us.
