Energy Psychology:

Re-Connecting with Your Ideal through the Transformation of Attitudes and Emotions

A Two-Day Intensive with Mary Elizabeth Lynch and Mark Thurston

SATURDAY, JUL 14, 9:30 A.M. - 6:00 P.M.
SUNDAY, JUL 15 9:30 A.M. - 5:30 P.M

Edgar Cayce was a pioneer of "Energy Healing," but his approach was much broader than just innovative electrical devices or the attunement of energy centers in the physical body. In his teachings, the mental body and the spiritual body are just as crucial to our personal energy system. We might even say that his approach to understanding the mind and soul is Energy Psychology.

In this two-day workshop course, Mary Elizabeth Lynch and Mark Thurston will help you explore the key components of your own energy system of ideals, attitudes and emotions. There will be considerable personal work as each course participant has a chance to see:

o How some psychological patterns play the role of blocking, congesting, and disharmonizing energy - especially the patterns of fear, anger, and self-condemnation that live within the psyche of us all; and,

o How other distinct patterns serve to connect us to our Ideals and promote the fluid, creative, and harmonizing expression of energy - namely, gratitude, compassion, and willingness.

The healing and transformative potential of Energy Psychology is found in the fundamental principles that direct our experience of energy through the body, mind, and spirit. Among the principles that will be applied in this workshop course are:

o A problem is never solved energetically at the same level at which the problem manifests. Instead, we must work at least one dimension higher with the energy patterns that have been creating the manifest problem.

o Energy follows attention, and only by developing the capacity to be attentive can we make use of the healing and transformative power of Energy Psychology.

o All energy comes from one Source and is transmutable. Even the most inharmonious or ugly expression of energy has within itself the essence of that which is pure.

This workshop course will be highly experiential and interactive.
Activities will include guided imagery experiences, pairs sharing, journaling, movement meditations, and 3-dimensional enactments of personal Energy Psychology patterns through a method called "Energy Constellations."
Come ready for a life transformative experience as you explore and apply the principles of Energy Psychology.
