It's All Energy; We Are All One
Peg Smith and Sibylle Baughan
UU Psi Symposium Conference Co-Coordinators
MORNING WORKSHOPS
Sibylle Mayer Baughan will lead the first morning workshop and the last one. She will be sharing energy practices to include: breathing exercises to bring energy into your body for self healing, experiencing it and moving it within your body, and then sending the energy elsewhere to heal others, or the planet.
From Monday-Thursday, Howard Banow will share the Eastern teachings and meditation system of the seven chakras, placing them in the context of the unique Jain philosophy of soul and matter.
In this four-morning workshop, the means to achieve an experience of Oneness will be explored through meditation practices, and the clearing and activation of the body’s energy system. Into this will be woven Native American approaches to the four directions as energy points and as experiential tools for wholeness and self-realization. There will be a special emphasis on sound work with mantras.
