There is a dimension to human existence that underlies all of our life events and issues, and it is called our spirituality. Spiritual living addresses the needs of the spiritual seeker or spiritual warrior. It transcends organized, denominational religion and is not bound by religious parameters, but it INCLUDES all religious endeavor and belief.
Your spirituality speaks to you many different ways, and many of them are listed here. You can learn the skills and dimensions of spiritual living and activate them in your life. A skills approach to spirituality is a practical way to find your natural spiritual path.

DREAM ANALYSIS
Dreams are our winged messengers. They have much to tell us about ourselves and even about upcoming events. Learn how to interpret your dreams so you can speak their language!
PAST-LIFE REGRESSION
Have you lived before? If you can suspend judgement about reincarnation and explore it freely, you can learn why certain events and patterns seem to recurr in your life. Your understanding of yourself and others is greatly enhanced when you understand your past lives and the affect they have on you in your current life. Past-life explorations are rich with information about you and those who inhabit your life right now.
ANGEL GUIDE, ANGEL GUIDE SPIRIT
Angels are real, and you can meet yours! You can learn to have contact with your divine guidance anytime you wish. All it requires is an open mind, a desire to establish contact, and knowledge of a few simple techniques. Your guides and angels are ready whenever you are!
METAPHYSICS, METAPHYSICS SPIRITUAL
Meta means beside, and metaphysics means beside the physical. Metaphysics involves those things we cannot necessarily see or touch or measure, but which we suspect are operating in our lives. Everything is vibration, and that's what metaphysics is all about. For instance, you can learn the metaphysics of money and understand that prosperity is a vibration you can attract into your life,
AURA READING
Everything, both animate and inanimate, has an electromagnetic energy field surrounding it. Animate creatures have ever-changing energy fields while inanimate objects have fixed energy fields. You can learn to see auras within a ten-minute period without any strain whatsoever, and you can sense your own aura and the auras of others in your life. Very valuable information! You can even arrange to have a picture taken of your own aura and/or have a psychic interpretation of your own aura! Very exciting to do!
QUIET-MIND MEDITATION, MEDITATION TECHNIQUE, GUIDED MEDITATION
"All man's problems derive from his inability to sit quietly, in a room, alone". Descarte's wise observation is worth considering. To it we might add, "without THINKING"! You can learn to quiet your mind, to clear thoughts from your consciousness, and to simply BE. Meditation is a magnificent way to manage stress, retain youthfulness, and experience bliss.
ANXIETY MANAGEMENT, DEPRESSION MANAGEMENT, DEPRESSION SUPPORT, MANAGE DEPRESSION
You can learn a complete set of skills for managing depression and anxiety so that you can take charge of your mental challenges and look at things in a whole new way. Once you learn the skills of anxiety and depression managment, you are no longer a helpless victim of your emotional states. These skills complement any treatment or medication you are involved with.
SHADOW WORK
Everyone has a shadow side. Your shadow is the unexpressed part of your personality, and it can be dark or light. You can learn to recognize and express your shadow self and understand those parts of yourself that have been neglected or unheard. Integration of all parts of yourself makes you whole. Whole is good.
INNER-CHILD EXPLORATION
Even though you are a grown adult, you still have an inner child who has needs and wants and longs to be looked after. You can meet your inner child and find out what it is seeking. Then you can find healthy ways to make it happy.
PSYCHIC DEVELOPMENT CERTIFICATION COURSE
Even if you are not interested in being certified, you will want to explore what this course has to offer. You may take any of the sessions by itself at any time and in any sequence. For webcam participants, you can set up your own class in your own home and we can conduct it long distance! For those of you in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area of Minnesota, you can come to our location.
PSYCHIC DEVELOPMENT
You are psychic, and you can learn the skills of psychism to further develop your own natural abilities. If you have ever "known" who was at the other end of the telephone line as you picked up the receiver, you are psychic. If you have ever had a dream and then saw the dream come true, you are psychic. You can develop your psychic skills on purpose in order to enhance your awareness of everything going on around you.
The major dimensions of psychism are seeing, hearing, and sensing (clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairsentience). You already have them all to one degree or another.
Here are the sessions:
AURA READING
Everything has an electromagnetic field surrounding it. Living things have auras that change all the time. Inanimate things have fixed auras. Your own astral body can be viewed by you as well, and it is different from the rest of your aura. You can learn to sense auras within 10 minutes! Some people sense auras by seeing them, some by touching them, some by hearing them, and some by all three. You will experience all three in this amazing session, and you will read your own aura and that of your friends. You'll even learn to tune-up your aura instantly! When your aura is properly tuned, you feel and live happier!
THE FOUR K'S
You'll learn and experience the four K's of psychic development: Kinetics, kything, keying, and Kahuna. You'll find out all about these when you take the class!
PALM ANALYSIS, PALM READING, PALMISTRY
Your life is in the palm of your hand, and you can learn to read it! In scientific palmistry, your palms represent the nerve endings of your brain. You will learn about your natural skills and career directions, your success likelihood, your love potentials, and a thousand other things. Endlessly fascinating, accurate, useful, and amazing. You'll learn to read the palms of others as well as your own.
PSYCHOMETRY
Everything is energy and vibration. Everything has its own vibration. Inanimate objects have their own stored vibration, and those vibrations have stories to tell you. You will learn to hear, see, and sense the stories of any object you choose to tune in on.
TAROT FOR SELF DEVELOPMENT
Tarot cards are pictorial archetypes (concepts) that anyone can understand and relate to. You can learn to hear, see, and sense the Tarot cards without spending years of study. You can use Tarot card spreads to help you resolve dilemmas, understand relationships, forecast outcomes, and gain greater self understanding. It's like giving yourself a head's up. If you see something you don't like, you can CHANGE IT. You can even do "shadow work" with the Tarot and meet and communicate with your shadow self. That is a separate study by arrangement.
SPIRIT CONTACT, CONTACT GUIDE SPIRIT
You can learn to establish contact with deceased relatives, friends, and even animals. They have much to say to you as a rule. It is good to wait three to six months before trying to establish contact. However, sometimes, they will CONTACT YOU. You will learn to recognize the signs that they are around.
