TAIL TALES
This series of talks covers a variety of topics which are presented on a rotating basis one weekend
and one evening per month. Go to the TAIL TALES page for the topic list and descriptions.
BASIC ANIMAL COMMUNICATION
ANIMAL REIKI
Animals are very open to the gentle but powerful healing energy of Reiki.
It can be used alone, or as a complementary therapy along with traditional western medical and veterinary care.
During the course work you will learn the healing art of Reiki, and how
it can be used with animals and their people. You will connect with and integrate the wisdom and insights of the animals,
who are part of our interconnected journeys. Through the path of Reiki, balance of emotional, behavioral, and physical concerns
can be restored for both animal and humans.

DRUM CIRCLE

to relax, drum to make noise! No prior experience needed, Dawn will help you
drum your way through the evening step by step. Drums and other percussion instruments
available to share. Children are welcome if they can introduce themselves and
follow simple directions. 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. on the first Friday of every month,

GUIDED MEDITATION
Meditation has been used
for many years as a relaxation method. Relaxation incorporated with meditation
has been shown to have a healing effect on the body by reducing stress, lowering blood pressure and helping to strengthen
the immune system. During our guided meditation, you will sit in a chair (unless
you choose to sit/lie on the floor), close your eyes, and be guided through a relaxing meditation session as you follow Dawn’s
voice. The theme of each session will change with the seasons and the participants.

SOUL CARDS
TALKING STICKS
Talking sticks, or talking feathers, have been used for centuries by Native
American groups as a means of giving people a fair hearing during meetings. The
talking stick is carried by an elder, who begins the meeting or council. When
he/she finishes speaking, the stick is held out and offered to the next speaker. Talking sticks are still used by many
groups, especially in groups of children or adults who need help preventing discussions from degenerating into noisy free-for-alls.
Talking Sticks are a great way to bring order to the family dinner table, group meetings, classrooms, and other group settings.
Join us to learn more about the history and use of a talking stick and to create one of your own.
VISION
BOARDS
Vision boards have been around for a
LONG time under a variety of names. I created my first one in college. I created my second one in 1976 – and accomplished ALL the short range and long range goals I set
except one, and I am very close to completing that one. I've created many more since
that time.
Vision
boards are a powerful tool for helping you imagine the results you want in any area of your life as the first step to making
them happen. Through the power of intention and visualization, break through
limiting beliefs and begin to create your ideal future. We’ll begin with
a bit of guided meditation to help you see your future now – and use that as the inspiration for the vision board you
will create. Supplies provided, but feel free to bring along anything you know you want to include on your board.
