Healers Paul and Jaylee Balchi coming to Whitby October 2012:

Rare Canadian (Whitby!) visit From International Healers Paul & Jaylee Balch!

Paul & Jaylee Balch are Spiritual Teachers from Australia who will be visiting the Ajax/Whitby area in October.  As part of their trip, they will be offering a 5-8 session “Self Mastery” workshop as well as some healings.   Initiated into the lineage of the Tibetan Master Lama from the mystery schools of Tibet, and the lineage of a Grand Master of Tao as well, their visit will be a rare opportunity to study under real life “gurus”.  While the workshop is open to anyone interested, its advanced nature will make it especially appropriate for practitioners interested in further developing their skill.  You can read more about their workshop here. 

If you are interested in experiencing one of Paul’s healing sessions you can contact me to reserve a space. (Paul will only schedule 4 healings a day and his time in Whitby will be limited so reserve a spot early!)  I have worked with Paul & Jaylee before in the past, and I assure you, it is an experience not to be missed.  For more information, visit ServingTheSpirit.Com or email me at: katied@servingthespirit.com.  **Please note, the exact dates and location are ‘to be announced’ as arrangements are still being confirmed.**

UPDATE: 10/01/2012: BIG NEWS RE:

This 5 day workshop starting Sunday,October 14th, is now being offered A DAY AT ATIME. You can now take this course for $100.00/day with no obligation to continue if you feel that the course is not right for you, or the financial commitment is too great.  Take advantage of this very RARE opportunity to study and learn under spiritual leaders of this caliber. 

**The only stipulation is that you MUST attend the FIRST Sunday, as major material is covered this day, and it would be disruptive to the energy if new people were added to the group later in the workshop.**  (But this also means, that you can get the ‘meat’ of this workshop for only $100.00!!) email me at: katied@servingthespirit.com to book!Also, please note: An additional day of Healings (Cost $150.00) has opened up – if you are interested in one of these powerful experiences, email me at: katied@servingthespirit.com to reserve a very LIMITED space!
