Tapping for the Holidays with Reva Rasmussen

"Surviving the Annoying Relative"

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 10 - 11:15 AM

Registration deadline Thursday, November 12 @ 9 am.

This class is an opportunity to learn a simple form of Emotional Freedom Tapping. EFT is a fantastic technique for the reduction of stress and anxiety. Tapping resets the nervous system by lightly tapping with the fingertips on acupuncture points on the hands, face and upper body while focusing on a troubling issue. Once learned, you can tap before bed to prepare for sleep, tap during a difficult interview or tap after seeing an annoying relative. You will find that once your stress is reduced, your mind and life will work better. I will review the techniques each time we meet so you can sign up for one or more sessions.

Saturday, December 12: Everyone's happy but me. 😒

Saturday, January 9: I don't know where to begin! 🙄

You are welcome to try out your first gathering for $15, with following sessions $20 each. To register and pay ahead, email Reva Rasmussen at AgateRoads@protonmail.com. You will be asked to pay ahead with Zelle, Venmo or PayPal. Tapping is a wonderful tool. It's simple and safe with profound benefits.  

About Reva: I have been called to take care of people. It’s a wonderful call that summoned me early in life to become a registered nurse and, later in life, to become an EFT practitioner.

Poetic Medicine with Lisa Mer

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1:30 - 3:15 PM

“By making us stop for a moment, poetry gives us an opportunity to think about ourselves as human beings on this planet and what we mean to each other.” — Rita Dove

You are invited to dip into a safe creative circle in which you'll experience the impact of the poem-making process as a roadmap to enhance and foster insights and wellness. The poems will be accessible, with no need to worry about analyzing anything! Poetry and poem-making are compelling and effective tools in the journey toward wholeness. They are a language below the surface to view the world through a broader lens. Poetic Medicine is based on over 20 years of groundbreaking work, from John Fox, The Institute for Poetic Medicine and Poetry as a Tool for Wellness, integrating poetry and poem-making into mental health and wellness programs.

Our sessions will include reflections on quotes and poems, creative writing prompts, and time to write and share what is speaking to you, if you wish to share. No prior experience with poetry or writing is necessary. Bring your curiosity and allow your unique voice to expand in this interactive respectful circle of learners. You are welcome to come to one session or join us for a series! $35 per session or $90 for 3 sessions. Email Lisa and pay ahead at LisaMer@soul-symbol.com. Inquire about last-minute registrations.
