Stephanie Bennett Vogt

Clear Clutter & Discover Who You Are *

with Stephanie Bennett Vogt

March 1, 2008
Clutter is anything that blocks our connection to our higher purpose in life and prevents us from knowing who we really are. In this workshop we will examine beliefs that breed clutter and see how clearing is not just something we do, but a powerful way to be. Clearing is a pathway that allows us to experience our most spacious selves - one small step, drawer, or moment at a time. Identify your particular brand of "holding on" and experience what it feels like to let go. Learn how clearing one little thing every day is more sustainable than binge-clearing a whole lot of things all at once. Learn simple tools to create a daily clearing program that becomes an effortless way of life.

Personal Clearing *

with Stephanie Bennett Vogt

March 2, 2008
Learn to clear yourself and the people you love. Any experience can be stored as a memory in your energy field and affects how you live your life. Clearing raises your energy level and changes who and what you attract. Identify and clear energetic stress patterns. Work with a pendulum to access the intuitive self and regulate the flow of information. Learn to connect with the energy fields of another person to clear patterns that no longer serve them. Discover how the energy of other people affects you, and how to remain neutral in their presence.
* These workshops are prerequisite for the "Space Clearing Certificate" Program (Details TBA).
Stephanie Bennett Vogt is a gifed teacher with over thirty-five years of training in metaphysics and various healing modalities. She was one of the first North American practitioners to certify with Karen Kingston from Bali and completed a four-year, advanced level certification with Eric Dowsett, master dowser from Australia.

The Secret of Miracles:

A Special Event with Denise Linn

Flyer for this event (PDF, 100K)
March 29-30, 2008
Every moment in your life can be a turning point. No matter what the circumstances of your life are, miracles can be just around the corner... and they can occur in an instant. Miracles are always waiting to happen for you – they are a natural part of your spiritual heritage – however, sometimes there are inner blockages that limit your ability to receive these miracles. Some of these obstacles come from mistaken ideas about who we are and what we deserve in life... and very often these beliefs originated in our past and even in a past life. Travel back in time to clear blockages so you can now create the miracles in life that you deserve. Connect with your spirit guides, begin to comprehend your true destiny and expand your ability to manifest your dreams.
