| Angel support group Byron Katie introduces "The Work" Coaches for parents Kaishan Golden Shield Angel support group MINNEAPOLIS -- "Open up to love!" A new four-step angel support group is forming at Lake Harriet Spiritual Community to offer support, guidance, healing and messages from the Angels to lightworkers seeking to fulfill their soul purpose. The four steps (the number four represents the Angelic realm) emphasize connection, healing, empowerment and transformation. Handouts and tools for communicating with the Angels will be part of every meeting, as well as group sharing, co-listening, hands-on healing, and long, heart-nurturing hugs. This group is a great adjunct to 12-Step recovery work. It also supports those who are without any specific addiction, yet are seeking a deeper connection with the Divine -- in themselves, in each other, in everything. With the help of the Angels as our "coaches from the other side," we nurture one another on our journey -- and from this nexus of support and love, we gain the strength and vision to go out and transform our world! The Circle will meet on the second Sunday of each month from 5-6:30 p.m. in the Earth Room of Lake Harriet Spiritual Community, 4401 Upton Ave. S., Minneapolis. The first meeting will be January 11, 2004. This is a free, public event (love offering donation will be collected to cover cost of space and support the Circle). For more information, call (612) 922-4272. Byron Katie introduces "The Work" MINNEAPOLIS -- Byron Katie, the originator of the exceptional self-help process called The Work and the woman described by TIME magazine as "a visionary for the new millennium," will visit Minneapolis on January 14, 2004, for a public event, sponsored by The Learning Annex. It's a chance to witness Katie warmly guiding one person after another through their troubles and fears, demonstrating how four simple questions can help them solve their most difficult problems. Katie, who has the demeanor of a wise and loving parent or friend, is committed to making The Work available to as many people as possible. Eckhart Tolle, renowned author of the bestseller The Power of Now, calls Katie "a great blessing for our planet." During the last fifteen years, nearly 300,000 people have attended these public sessions, and thousands who use The Work around the world attest to its transformational power. Her book Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life has been translated into 16 languages. The paperback was published December 23. Motivational speaker Tony Robbins calls her book "a powerful glimpse into the heart of what it takes to be truly happy." Actor Richard Chamberlain claims that The Work helped him "get in touch with the truth." Time Out New York recently told its readers, "You just know it's going to be huge." The event is from 6:45-9:30 p.m. To register, call 1 (888) 53ANNEX or (612) 943-9273 or go to the web at www.learningannex.com. The cost of the course is $44, or $39 for members.

Golden Shield is a rare style of Qi Gong designed to build the human energy body extremely quickly. By building and cleansing all of the systems of your body, Kaishan Golden Shield helps you rediscover your natural ability to maintain remarkably high levels of physical and mental health. This January, Kaishan Golden Shield is being introduced at a live demonstration here in Minneapolis. The lecture/demonstration will be at the Yoga Centers of Minneapolis. The first demonstration will be at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30, at the Downtown Studio at 212 3rd Ave. N., Minneapolis. A second introductory demonstration will be at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 31, in the St. Louis Park Studio at 4215 Excelsior Blvd., in St. Louis Park, Minn. The first class will be at 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 1, at the St. Louis Park Yoga Center. Mary Ida Adams, of Fairfield, Iowa, will be present a free lecture/demonstration. She has been involved with meditation and energy work for 31 years and has been with the Kaishan Institute for the past four years. She currently instructs in Iowa. As a very potent internal energy system, Golden Shield combines the elements of a physical practice with meditations and traditional herbal preparations. Reasons for beginning the Kaishan Golden Shield training will vary for each person. Many reasons include, health, well-being, physical stamina, longevity, augmentation of a martial or meditative background, or curiosity. Traditionally kept secret, this knowledge from ancient China was passed down from teacher to student, one or two students at a time. It is being taught to the public for the first time throughout the U.S. Dr. Zhang co-established the Kaishan Institute of Natural Health with lead instructor Ed Fleischman in 1996. Kaishan's completely unique internal energy system has been tested and proven by hundreds in Texas, Illinois, Michigan, Iowa, California, Colorado, Arizona, British Columbia and New York.
