			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we began our Qigong practice at Alice Keck park. In Qigong we pay close attention to the energetic aspect of each season and how they correlate to our vital organs. In his book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chi-Nei-Tsang-Massage-Organs/dp/1594771057/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1317750211&amp;sr=8-2">&#8220;Chi Nei Tsang&#8221;,</a> Mantak Chia writes:</p>
<p>&#8220;The spleen, pancreas, and stomach are the organs through which the earth element functions. Operating like a switchboard, it is in the charge of absorbing, forming, and transporting the energy and chi from food. The earth produces food, and so its energy is the energy of Indian summer or harvesttime. In almost every land and culture, this is the time for assessment, reflection, planning and preparation. This is when we feel the first chill of autumn, which usually makes us momentarily ground and stabilize ourselves so that we can make sure that we are prepared for the coming winter.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have a new office-mate at the Gibian Wellness Center. Naomi Romulo is a recent graduate of a 4-year energy healing program. She will be presenting her work at the center on <strong>Saturday, August 14th, at 2pm.</strong></p>
<p>In her words:<br />
Life offers so many gifts that we do not seek out, are unable to receive, or even reject simply out of lack of awareness and understanding.  I am offering a free informational talk simply because I am inspired and hopeful about this body of work and I want to raise awareness and understanding of Brennan Healing so we can all benefit more greatly from this gift.  </p>
<p>The Barbara Brennan Schools of Healing are a &#8220;cauldron&#8221; that holds, sparks, and enables deep personal growth.  For those with the longing to become healers or those who long for a powerful catalyst in their own transformation I would like to share my experience of BBSH.  There are three schools, in Florida, Austria, and Japan.  The US school offers a Bachelors of Science degree program.  All offer a Professional and Advanced Studies programs.</p>
<p>To everyone I would like to present Brennan Healing as a viable option in health care.  The work is wholistic.  It can powerfully effect physical, psychological, and spiritual wellbeing.  Each client&#8217;s journey to greater health is supported (and also held and sparked) by the hands on healing work done with a Brennan Healing Science Practitioner. </p>
<p>I hope to see you August 14th, 2pm, Gibian Wellness Center, 1522 State St.  My phone number is 451-3932.  You can also RSVP to naomijahtro@hotmail.com</p>
<p>With sincere hope for greater expression of your divine essence,</p>
<p>Naomi Romulo</p>
