UNITY NEWS

Welcome to the Spring ‘Unity News’.

As you will see from the news and events we have been very busy! We are now on Facebook and will be, if not already, launching our new website. We hope this will make it easier for people to navigate around, find information and have up to date news of events.

The much needed, and long overdue, new roof will soon be in place, weather permitting of course! We hope the disruption won’t have been too bad for people enjoying the lovely healing sessions; we have tried to continue as normal so as not to disappoint anyone.

Make Saturday 16th May a date for your diary too! Our MBS + Craft Fair promises to be a great day out for all the family and a chance to meet some of the team here at the healing centre. We are hoping to have a range of stalls with Angels, Crystals, Readers, books, bric-a-brac and will be serving tea and coffee as well to keep you refreshed. I do hope you will be able to join us. Until next time . . .

Blessings
Robert Parkin, Chairman

THERAPIST PROFILE

What is Creative Kinesiology (CK) by practitioner Maz Williams

CK is a wonderful combination of therapies (acupressure from Chinese Medicine, allergy testing through bio feedback, chakra and aura work, muscle and structural work, stress release techniques from osteopathy) all woven together in each session. No two sessions are alike.

Muscle testing (bio-feedback) is the key to kinesiology, this allows me to track what’s going on behind your particular symptoms and what’s the best thing to do to get you feeling back on track with your life. It’s a gentle process of witnessing the story of your Life Journey and unique spirit, and in the process of being witnessed you can release tension, and find new strength and energy.

In a session we look at how your energy is running and what could be imbalancing your
energy system and causing symptoms. This could be anything ranging from a physical problem, to something nutritional (eg a food intolerance), to an environmental influence, to your feelings about a past event, to an ancestral inheritance or a spiritual issue.

You can observe how your muscles and body respond straight away. You can see what
happens when your body has a potential challenge or stressor, such as a food, idea,
emotion or concept. If you suspect that your body is finding something in your life or environment more stressful than it ought, kinesiology may be able to help you. As a practitioner I’m amazed at the results kinesiology can achieve, and the more I work with it, the more I find the possibilities of what it can be used for are limitless.

ASTROLOGY CORNER

Welcome to the second edition of Astrologer’s Corner. The Uranus-Pluto square still dominates the astrological skies and will do so for another two years. As we reach the middle of February 2015, it is Aries & Capricorn people born around the 4th & 5th of the month who will be feeling the disruptive and transformative pressures of these two planets with particular force. We will continue to keep an eye on the evolving impact of this process in future editions.

Earlier this month Mars was close to Chiron in Pisces – potentially boosting the energy of healers . Shortly after Valentine’s Day, Venus joins Mars in Pisces – sweetening his energies and encouraging sensitive expression of love. But after 21st there is a shift of emphasis: The Sun moves into a square (90 degrees) relation with Saturn, and Venus and Mars remain joined but move together into Aries. This pattern is more conducive to ardent expression of emotion – with an element of control and domination thrown in for good measure!
