Thought of the Week
Contentment is the key. If you have contentment with material things, you are truly rich. Without it, even if you are a billionaire, you will not have happiness……The Dalai Lama

F.Y.I.
We had an amazing call yesterday. This is the story but until we get permission we cannot share the names with you. The woman said, her daughter returned to her home in the country following a visit to her . The daughter and family on returning home opened the front door and walked through to the back of the house. As they entered the room, the daughter saw four Aboriginal faces at the window. She froze as did her husband and son who also saw these images. They were just faces with no bodies. Her husband didn’t believe in spirits but there were the faces. His son had his camera with him and took a picture. And guess what the faces turned out in the digital picture!
We have asked this person to ask her daughter for a copy of the photo.

Affirmation – say every day.
Take three deep breaths and relax. Say these words:
” I shine my Light brightly, radiating love and blessings to all I meet. I am one with myself and others”….Rose of Raphael..

Health Tip – One day detox.
Your body is your temple.
Make today a mini detox day. Start with a vegetable juice for breakfast.
No alcohol, wheat or diary for the day. Lots of fruit and vegetables and 2 litres (3 1/2 pints) of filtered water.
Detoxing allows organs which filter and break down foods, chemicals and toxins to be flushed out. By having only pure foods and drinks for a day, you give your organs time to rest and restore……….’60 Seconds Secrets’ by Julie Maree Wood.

In and Around The Academy
Did you all have a lovely Easter break? When I think of the Easter Egg, I remember its symbolism, that is new life, new beginnings. So why not make another resolution to begin each day as if it is a new beginning. Let go the past, notice what you are thinking? Is it the same old things you thought yesterday. To have a new start you need to change the ‘radio stations’ of your mind. This can be done consciously by introducing other words or thoughts of gratitude. Sometimes it takes a lot of energy to change the stations as a higher frequency is needed. This is where coming to the Monday Night meeting is wonderful and serves us well by raising our vibration .
When we come we get the opportunity of ‘unloading’ the day and quieting the mind. It is probably the first opportunity that day you may have had to really listen and connect to yourself in the quiet and stillness as you follow the meditation. During the meditation you are encouraged to release from the organs of your body, the thoughts of lack of self-worth, resentment and struggle, to name a few and replace them with Light. It really works!
So we invite you to come along and regenerate yourself each week and step out of stress and struggle.
NOTE: In my book ‘How to Move Forward” there is a chapter on changing the radio stations of your mind. Cost $25

NLP for the Soul
With Christine Bannigan
Christine will chat with you about some of her interesting spiritual experiences.
She will also take you through a channelled process for finding more freedom.
Christine has been practicing NLP for twelve years, and has been instrumental in helping many people release entrenched patterns of fear, depression and resignation. Along the way, Christine has also healed herself of cancer and written two books – ‘Contract to Live’ and ‘The Blossoming Heart’ both of which are available through The Academy (academyoflight.net.au/products-page/books/ ).
Her work can be poignant and direct, awakening clients to the subconscious limiting imprints defining their lives. Conversely, it may be so subtle that the person is not immediately aware of the lock that has been broken, that is until they start to experience an unexplained sense of freedom. Either way, the transformational energies hone in on the deepest layers of being, unravelling embedded beliefs and behaviours that have kept us in an emotional gridlock far too long.
Christine encourages you to “be yourself, not your programs,” and through her private coaching sessions, channelling, workshops and books, she supports you to embrace your divine potential.

Guided Imagery and Music
With Louise Terry-Clark (RMT)
Want someone to talk to? Enjoy music?
Louise Terry-Clark has 10 years experience as a registered therapist and is now offering a beautiful method of discovering the inner self, via Guided Imagery and Music (GIM).
The Bonny method of Guided Imagery and Music is a music-oriented exploration of consciousness. It offers persons the opportunity to integrate spiritual, emotional, mental and physical aspects of well-being as well as awaken to a greater transcendent identification. Specifically sequenced music programs are used to stimulate a dynamic unfolding of inner experiences. A dialogue between therapist (guide) and client (traveller) enhances this rich experience.
Guided Imagery and Music can support self discovery, spiritual development, trauma, grief and loss, relationships, post cancer support and much more.
As Louise is in her final year of Post Graduate study (Guided Imagery and Music) 90 minute sessions are offered at a reduced cost of $30. First session is offered free of charge, so those interested can trial this method.

It has been used by many to alleviate stress and help heal physical problems.
