Events
There are a number of events that take place at Crystal House over the year. They range from weekly to annually. There are also one off events.
Autumn Equinox Healing Meditation
Wednesday 20th September 2023
7.30 - 9.30 pm
Are you feeling exhausted? Are you feeling like you are on an emotional rollercoaster? Do you feel like your life in crumbling down? Are you experiencing challenges in your work life, personal and relationships?
Even though we are now in 2023, life continues to be chaotic, confusing and there is much disillusionment. This year, more than ever, the death of the old paradigm is becoming more evident. We are in the last throws of the death and dying process. Some of you can feel the death of the ego and even your way of being. Our Higher Selves are slowly coming through but this rebirth is taking it's toll on everyone.
To support you through these difficult times, Earthstar Alchemy @ Crystal House will be facilitating powerful healing meditations. The autumn equinox is a powerful time of year where the energies will greatly assist in bringing you back into alignment and balance. Working with high frequencies and vibrations of Transference Healing® , these healing meditations will enable you to experience and embody these energies to support your health and well being.
On this evening a sacred space will be created that will support a divine healing process. Along with the spiritual energetic impact of the meditations, you will experience a transference shift and be supported in the integration of your lightbody.
This event is FREE and you will need to let us know if you wish to attend so that we know numbers. Donations are very welcome.
Fun With Belly Dancing Classes
Research has shown how dance is a great way to not only improve your physical health but other aspects too. Belly dancing is a great and fun way to improve core and pelvic floor strength.
