Alchemy Workshop When change comes about our spleen is working hard to help our bodies’ mucous adjust, this happens when we are going through all sorts of changes in life whether it be weather or patterns within us. A cold is a good thing; the old mucous is burning out of the body with a fever, allowing a new well adjusted mucous lining to come through helping the body to adapt to this change. So when some body sneezes do not grimace, bless them as they are being blessed with a new change, and bless the angels.

Dealing with Anxiety, Depression, Worry and Lethargy
with Natalie Almond
14th August
Aside from cancer; anxiety and depression are the major dis-eases in our society today, many drugs are given leaving terrible side affects and the reminder every day that you have a problem.
In yoga we work with our organs and glands, once you understand that each organ holds a specific emotion you will begin to understand it is probably more a physical problem than a mental, which leads you to believe there is more of a chance to fix this.
Natalie Almond has dealt with many anxiety and depression clients having had a great deal of success in helping these people.
The key to aiding this ailment is to realise you only need to change your obsessions to healthy ones and once you find that natural high there is no turning back as there are no side affects and you did it for your self.
In this workshop Natalie will work with your individual breath, posture, use sound and visualisation and give a short seminar on the way these dis comforts are created, so thre will be keys to carry with you after the workshop.
This workshop will be held
On: Saturday 14th August 2010

From: 12 -3pm
Cost: $50
