ANGEL ART

Angelic Impressions, 10150 26th Ave. N., Plymouth, MN 55441, (763) 546-4076, paulettesalo@aol.com

Angelic Impressions began three years ago when I realized that my mission was to paint the guardian angels for children with life-threatening illnesses. Since that time, I have painted hundreds of paintings for these children and anyone else who would like to see their angels. These angel paintings are channeled through me onto the canvas – and no two are ever alike. I have been a professional artist for more than 40 years and my murals and canvases can been seen in homes and businesses across the country.

If you would like to see your very own guardian angel on canvas or as a gift for someone special, please contact me at (763) 546-4076 for prices and sizes.

Also available are three series of beautiful angel cards and prints – ask for a brochure!

WHEN YOU CAN'T BE THERE – SEND AN ANGEL!!!

WHEN THAT SOMEONE IS SPECIAL – SEND AN ANGEL!!!!!

ANIMAL COMMUNICATION

Ilga Cimbulis, (952) 906-9305, ilga@ilgacimbulis.com, www.ilgacimbulis.com

"I am a messenger of their whispers…Listen, for we all can hear."

ANIMAL COMMUNICATION

Lena Swanson, Sabai Healing (651) 206-0644, lena@lenaswanson.com, www.lenaswanson.com

Animal communication is becoming more widely accepted as a viable method to help solve behavior problems by getting information directly from your animals. By speaking with them through a professional animal communicator you are able to discuss issues and solve problems that otherwise might seem hopeless.

Consultations are usually done by phone and I start by connecting to your animal through the strong, energetic bond you both have. A three way conversation follows in which you are able to ask questions and say things to your animal friend.

Being able to see things from their perspective facilitates meaningful discussion and compromise. Once the lines of communication are open the relationship becomes more harmonious and is deepened in a way not otherwise possible.

I also offer shamanic healing, Reiki energy healing sessions, and flower essence and essential oil consultations through my Sabai Healing practice. Please feel free to call for more information or to set up a consultation.

Our foremost desire is to improve the lives of animal patients and uphold our responsibility to practice conscientious and quality medicine.

BODY & ENERGY WORK

Kate Sciandra (612) 202-5583

Kate Sciandra's work is a combination of modalities that address pain, discomfort and emotional issues at their roots. A combination of Ortho-Bionomy®, Flower Remedies and energy work address the mind/spirit through its physical manifestation.

After receiving a diploma in Herbal Studies from the Australasian College, Kate has been practicing Ortho-Bionomy since 1992. This clothed bodywork approaches the body from a reflective and nurturing perspective by positioning the body within its preferences and limitations. This provides a painless, relaxing session that also resets the neuro-muscular reflex to eliminate spasm. The reflective nature of this work provides a nurturing environment for self-examination, allowing for a subtle, yet profound, unfolding of the nature of the tension and injury.

Ortho-Bionomy is highly effective for general relaxation, injuries, fibromyalgia, and body and emotional issues stemming from abuse or emotional damage. It aids in the effectiveness of other therapies, such as Chiropractic, talk therapy and Rolfing.

CHURCHES

Unity East, Rev. Geoff Davis, (651) 731-5330, www.unityeast.org

One Hundred Years of Healing – Many years ago Myrtle Fillmore, co-founder of the Unity movement, became powerfully inspired while listening to Dr. E. B. Weeks. She came away from that lecture with a simple yet very powerful affirmative prayer that healed her. That prayer launched Unity and Silent Unity Prayer Ministries.

Today, Unity East has expanded that basic principle to include additional healing modalities: a combination of affirmative prayer and recognized spiritual healing practices. There is ample evidence that prayer works, and that prayer heals. The first and second Sundays of each month are devoted to prayer and healing.

If you have a prayer or healing desire and would like to add the power of prayer to your treatment join us as we know for you that, "I am a child of God and I do not inherit sickness," then plan to join us!


COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE

Marcia S. Rowland, Attorney at Law, (952) 975-5958

As practicing attorney for more than 25 years, I am excited about the new process for divorce, called collaborative law! It resolves conflict using cooperative strategies rather than adversarial strategies and litigation. Not only is it almost always less costly than litigation, it gives the power back to the people getting a divorce. It allows them to make their own decisions about their needs and the needs of their children, yet with the advice and support of their own specially trained collaborative attorney.

Collaborative divorces use conflict resolution methods that are life affirming and respectful and reduces the intense emotional conflict normally involved in a divorce. Instead of the focus being on accusations, blaming and fault finding as it is in the traditional divorce process, the focus is on respectful communication and problem solving to reach mutually acceptable solutions. It benefits the parties and their children emotionally, financially and spiritually.

COLON HYDROTHERAPY – COLONICS

Healing Insights Natural Health Care, (651) 222-HEAL (4325), 7582 Currell Blvd., Suite 112, Woodbury, MN 55125, www.healinginsights.net

Using purified water, Colonics clean the colon or large intestine, thus promoting a healthy colon, which is essential to a healthy body. Unhealthy colons: exaggerate symptoms due to other illnesses; will not properly absorb nutrients; may contribute to body dehydration; breed disease causing bacteria, parasites and yeasts; and inhibit or prevent elimination of blood, organ toxins and cellular wastes.

Detox programs process faster and easier on the body with Colonics assisting the body to release toxins from the blood and lymphatic systems.

Therapists operate professional equipment using pressurized water "inflow," which is more effective than a gravity flow or enema type system. All waste and water flows out disposable tubing called a "closed outflow" process, thereby providing the most hygienic and comfortable experience. Therapists discuss your digestive concerns, how your body works and what foods or habits may be affecting your health.

As a natural health center, we offer a variety of therapies, including Massage, Clarity Integration, Cranio Sacral, Ear Candling, Aromatherapy and Bio-Energetic Sensory Therapy. Visit our website for upcoming Classes, Workshops and Events.

Young Living Essential Oils, Chérie Ross, (763) 545-7347 cherie@young-living.net, www.young-living.net

There are many different quality grades of Essential Oils. Most are for perfume/fragrance only. Many have hidden additives causing toxic reactions. Essential Oils are considered "our first medicine." Essential Oils enable us to recover 75 percent faster from injuries/illness.

Essential Oils are a safe and effective replacement for our toxic household cleaning and personal care products. They balance our immune system more powerfully than anything else, increase stamina, endurance and improve performance. They are superb for creating emotional stability and ideal for increasing your vibration and assisting us in maintaining a high frequency while moving through these energy shifts with grace and ease.

Chérie has been working personally/professionally with essential oils for more than 20 years, training/teaching in Europe, Canada, and the U.S. She recovered from a car accident that left her with brain damage and life-threatening injuries.

Eric Christopher is a marriage and family therapist, and has extensive training in clinical, transpersonal and releasement hypnotherapy. He uses a variety of effective techniques to help people locate, release and heal the root of their problems.

INTROVERT ENERGY

Nancy Okerlund, Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, M.A. in Human Development, (612) 823-3199, www.nancyokerlund.com

I work with women in mid-life who are introverts to discover or deepen the gift and power of being an introvert. Research says that 75 percent of people are extroverts, and the United States is a very extroverted culture. Life is quite different for introverts than for extroverts – both challenging and wonderful!

The vehicle is co-active coaching. How does it work? It's a personally-customized process:

• Identifying what you want, from concrete results to a whole life vision;

• Learning tools that use your strengths to get around blocks;

• Taking action in manageable steps;

• Being in partnership with your coach to stay focused and inspired.

Great breakthroughs in our lives generally happen as a result of innumerable small steps and achievements. What is YOUR way of being an introvert?

The human body has the innate ability to heal itself. Pranic Healing involves a series of techniques that cleanse, energize and stabilize the aura, individual chakras and the affected parts of the physical body.

Ruth finds Pranic Healing an excellent, integrative complement to Western medicine. She has experience in Advanced Pranic Healing and Psychotherapy, Pranic Crystal Healing and Psychic Self-defense for the home and office.

REBIRTHING / BREATH WORK

Lee Timm Beaty, Light Heart Unlimited, (612) 721-7108

Rebirthing is for those who are seeking profound self-understanding, compassion, personal freedom, and higher consciousness.

This technique allows you to relax, utilizing the Spirit within the breath to access and release unconscious blocks. Rebirthing dissolves these limitations at their source, freeing you from negativities imposed years (or even lifetimes) ago.

I have over 20 years of experience sharing this "Compassion Technology". Some of the results produced are: Total relief and release from the grip of subconscious negative beliefs; expansion of the heart; liberation of the True-Self; the unfolding of unconditional love; and lightening up on all levels.

This breathwork is simple and safe. It honors and promotes whole-being wellness and spiritual evolution. I look forward to participating with you on your Sacred journey to your True Self.

In addition, I offer the therapeutic bodywork and energies of Ortho-Bionomy®, Frequencies of Brilliance, and Shamanic healing. I also teach Fulfillment Meditation and Thai Rishi Yoga.

REIKI

(R)evolution, Paul Berg, (612) 310-9975

As a certified practitioner of three modalities, my goal is to support your passage to wellness with a variety of approaches. Reiki is my primary practice. Reiki utilizes intuition to locate negative, limiting messages stored in our bodies. Rei-ki literally means "Universal life force," and that's exactly what is transmitted to initiate the healing process through a laying on of hands.

Breathwork is a yogic style of breathing which detoxifies the mind, body and spirit. This certain type of breathing brings awareness to your true nature, giving you support in processing the issues which require your attention.

Laying on of stones is an ancient shamanic practice. Inherent in crystals and minerals are the songs of universal truths. They each have a vibratory rate that resonates to a truth. This truth will be reintroduced where it is needed most for you.

Please call for appointments or information.


SHAMANIC HEALING

Energetic Vision Quest & Hands-On Healing, Rev. Craig Hartel, Healing Minister and Shamanic Practitioner, 138 Wedgewood Court, Brighton, MN 55112, (651)631-8461, www.craighartel.com, hartel@usfamily.net.

The Energetic Vision Quest is a series of three two-hour, one-on-one Shamanic Ceremonies completed within a five-day period. The first Ceremony is dedicated to Cleansing and Purifying, the second to Healing and the third to Empowerment of Vision.

Each ceremony builds upon the elements of the previous ceremony and takes you to a deeper soul level where all visions originate. The ceremonies power a shift in consciousness and a potential for realization of answers to life questions, whether they be about life purpose, direction or clarity.

Craig Hartel completed the Hands-on-Healing and Ordination Program in 2000 at the Center for Wholeness in Minneapolis. He travels to Peru to study the traditional healing practices of the indigenous people, advanced shamanic practices, their use of sacred plants and managing energy under the guidance of master shaman, don Theo Paredes.


SHAMANIC HEALING

Mary Stoffel (763) 444-8146

Throughout history shamans have served their community as healers dealing with issues of soul or personal power loss resulting in varying degrees of chronic depression and illness, addiction, dissociation, post-traumatic stress syndrome, or just plain chronic bad luck. Shamanic practitioners address the spiritual aspects of illness on our behalf by working with compassionate, helping spirits to restore balance, harmony, and life-essence vitality. An important quality of shamanism is that it provides a very practical means of solving everyday problems.

The wounded spirit can feel overwhelmed by life in general and problems can seem insurmountable. As a shamanic practitioner, Mary Stoffel works with both people and their animal companions to help restore spiritual balance and personal power. With training through the International Foundation for Shamanic Studies, she uses telepathy, energy interference patterning, essential oils and shamanic healing methods to help people and animals deal with holistic health issues.


SHAMANIC PRACTITIONER

Karen Johnson (763) 439-3104, www.shewalkswithbear.com

Shamanism has been practiced for more than 40,000 years, and with this form of healing and wholeness comes an age-old interpretation of how all beings are interconnected and how healing can be facilitated on a spiritual level.

Shamanic Practitioners believe that dis-ease has a spiritual base, and through various methods like extraction, soul retrievals, dispossession, restoring power and power animal retrievals, health – physical, emotional and spiritual – can be restored. Shamanic Counseling is also available. Through this spiritual exploration you will access and work with your own spirit guides. You'll learn how to ask the right questions, interpret the answers and use divination to find answers, guidance and further your own relationship with the spiritual world.

Karen Johnson is available for group/personal rune readings, workshops, healings, group and personal training and shamanic counseling. More information and fee structure can be found at her website or by calling her.


SOLAR POWERED COMMUNITY

Bill Record, Sage Valley Community, www.earthloving.com, (845) 744-5527

Sage Valley in the high desert of central Nevada is the location for a new community of beautiful "earthship" type homes. Sage Valley is located about 25 miles south of Interstate 80 near the town of Battle Mountain. Three hundred days of sunshine and low humidity give a great year-round climate.

Everyone will own their own 40-acre parcel within a community based on the Peace Principles as practiced by traditional cultures. The community association will regulate affairs of a common concern (junk cars, trailers, architecture) to insure the integrity of this pristine valley. This will be an off-the-grid, solar powered, eco-village where the oldest and newest technologies come together.

Forty-acre lots start at $12,000 and terms are available. Construction will start on the first "earthship" in May 2005. Please access the website or call for more information.


SOUL SOLUTIONS

Soul Solutions™: Gently Transforming Your Life, Krysta Kavenaugh, (612) 725-6763, ext. 1, constellations@marriagemagazine.org, www.ulsamer.com

This elegantly simple, yet dynamic and respectful process, can transform hearts, souls and lives.

This is soul work, not ego work. It's therapeutic, but not therapy. It can profoundly impact difficult life issues: • Have you ever wondered why this particular issue (money, career, physical or mental health…) is showing up in your life – again and again? • Do you want more love in your life? Love with a capital L, relationship love, friendship love, self-love? • Do you notice patterns in your family tree, i.e. alcoholism or disease?

Some of the results: • Find how to reach hidden love in illness, unhappiness and failure. • Watch solutions for your life spring forth effortlessly. • Experience the life-changing difference of feeling connected to your abundantly loving "living family tree."

The systemic constellation workshops in the tradition of Bert Hellinger, done in groups or one-on-one, facilitate you in creating the life you want.

Call, e-mail or visit the website for more info about this work.

SPIRITUAL CENTER & CHURCH

Hope Interfaith Center, Rev. Janice Hope Gorman, 808 N. 2nd St., Mankato MN 56001, (507) 386-1242, friend01@hickorytech.net, www.hopeinterfaithcenter.com, Worship Service the 2nd Sunday of every month at 10 a.m.

The main effort at the Center is to bring people together in oneness. We promote no one religion. Our goal is to break down the walls around all religions. One way of accomplishing this is to educate and live by the Golden Rule, which is promoted by all of the religions of the world. When you begin to learn about the various religions you will begin to see the similarities. Every religion in history has drawn on others for material. By drawing on each religion, we learn that we are one people, have one religion, and that one religion is LOVE! Our goal is to mend the wounds and liberate the walls that divide us by embracing the beauty in all religions and in all people through love and acceptance. Our objective is to provide a space to build community through spiritual education, meditation, praise and service.

We invite you to come and experience our open arms!

SPIRITUAL HEALING

Sandie Lee Bohlig (763) 442-8070, e-mail angelweb@netscape.net

Sandie Lee Bohlig of Sandie Skye Counseling has been in business since 1991, working for God and the Angels. In 1994, she was named the Number 1 Spiritualist internationally by the Association of Research & Enlightenment and the American Association of Professional Psychics®.

She received this title because of all the help she has received from the Archangel Uriel, who is known as the Mahavatar (Archangel) Babaji in the Himalayas. He made it possible for her to see and hear the angels, God, and people on the other side very clearly and pass it on to the people she is working with. He also taught her how to teach the Meet your Angels classes. Sandie Lee is known for being able to contact anyone in the spiritual with God's permission and to give word-for-word translations that are exact replicas of what is being said.

TRANSFORMATIONAL FACILITATOR

Medicine Hands, Jeanne Lecher (651) 338-9813

I am an open channel who facilitates transformational healing, using different modalities. In this process I am the facilitator, and you are the healer. The spirit knows what it is ready to transform and guides us to the modalities that can provide that healing. Some of the modalities providing opportunities for transformation and healing to occur are:

Massage
Reflexology
Energy movement
Visualization
Journeying
Regression
Crystal healing
Messaging


All aspects of the spirit (body, mind, emotion, feelings and senses) are affected by this healing process. The transformation happens on all levels of existence and in all areas of time (past, present and future). Medicine Hands provides a safe and nurturing place for healing, allowing the spirit the time and place to transform and heal.


TRANSFORMATIONAL HEALING & EMBODIMENT

Lisa Lindberg www.wholebeinghealing.com

To me, awakening ("healing") is the process of embodying our True Nature or "Presence." After all, what good is "awakening" without direct experience of expanded awareness in "everyday" life?

Embodying Presence naturally calls you to notice your "historic self" patterns (limiting beliefs) so they can be transformed. Bringing your conscious Presence to these old patterns energetically changes them. The unconditional (Presence) transforms the conditional (limiting beliefs). More of your energy is freed up to consciously live your life as you prefer. Awareness expands.

I work with you to directly experience your Presence in the body. Then, through my intuitive capacity and by moving energy, I support you in your clearing process. My clients report physical and emotional healing as well as feeling more "clean" and "less stuck" or "lighter." This is an amazing, highly individual, embodiment process. YOU are the one you've been searching for. Let's experience that together.


VIBRATIONAL MEDICINE

Frequencies of Brilliance, Joanne Wakefield (651) 452-2895, e-mail ivheartsong@comcast.net

Frequencies of Brilliance can be described as a vibrational medicine. All the cells of the body and all the organs vibrate at specific frequencies. Areas that are compromised due to emotional holding or trauma have a lower vibration, which slows universal life force from moving through the specific areas. These are places where pain, trauma and/or disease are experienced.

In Frequencies of Brilliance, a practitioner attuned to the higher frequency energetic can hold the body points open, bringing higher frequencies into the points and cells of the body. This allows the cells and tissues to receive life force flow and vitality. This is the place of "all possibilities" where the consciousness of the cells is awakened and the "Self" can recall original wholeness.

Frequencies of Brilliance bridges the physical with the spiritual self-awakening the truth of your unlimited potential. Great spiritual, as well as physical, transformation is possible with this work.

E-mail or phone for a session or information on future courses that initiate you into this magnificent work.

YOGA (HATHA)

Leslie Johnson (612) 408-0434, leslie99johnson@hotmail.com

I offer Hatha Yoga taught Svaroopa style. Many styles of yoga open the joints, especially the joints of the limbs (shoulders, hips). In Svaroopa yoga, we work with poses specifically for the purpose of opening the spine. When you open the spine, everything opens up. Physical aches and pains go away, you feel younger and have more vitality, your mind becomes peaceful and calm and the inner dimensions begin to open. You experience the bliss of your being (Svaroopa)!

The ancient sages describe an inner reservoir in every person that is the wellspring of life itself. To experience this inner source directly is the purpose of yoga.


I offer ongoing classes in the Twin Cities. Call or e-mail for more information.
