Welcoming Windward Empathy

12/15/2015

Windward Empathy to Join A Healing Space, January 2016

Please join us in welcoming Windward Empathy to A Healing Space.  These two talented healers will be bringing their work in Empathic Listening to our offices.  There is much more information to come, but here is a little intro about Mark & Heather...

Picture
We are Mark and Heather Schlessman and our story begins in Portland, Oregon where we had just moved to shepherd a religious community. Both of us had a longing to be present in this life in a very different way, and we weren’t sure how to get there.

Each of us came to find the work of Marshall Rosenberg regarding nonviolent communication, and we were lucky enough to find a protégé of his, Kathy Marchant. We took the introductory course and then began the weekly practice sessions in an empathic community that continued until we moved to Hawaii 4 years later.

Healing with Daoist Medical Qigong

Healing with Daoist Medical Qigong
By: Eric Schaffer, DMQ

Picture
According to Chinese Medicine:
Chinese medicine says: When the body’s energy flows freely, with the right amount of energy - not too much or too little, and is balanced, we will be free from illnesses, emotional problems, and troubled mind. Harmony will be present, and we’ll live longer.

Medical Qigong is Good for Symptoms 
Medical qigong clears the energetic and emotional blockages that are at the root of symptoms. Both energetic treatment and self-healing exercises gently “jump start” a return to the smooth flow and balance of the body’s energies. Although a single session is useful to get a sense of the work, symptoms develop over a period of years or decades, and usually a series of sessions is needed to be effective. Progress is reviewed session by session, and after a series of 3 or 6 sessions. A self-healing qigong exercise prescription is offered during the session. Affordable self-healing qigong classes are offered monthly.

Picture
What is Qigong?
Using movement exercises, breath work, and meditation, Qigong is an ancient Chinese discipline that trains and synchronizes our body, mind, and spirit. Qigong means “energy training” and “breath training”.

Medical qigong
Medical qigong combines the skill and knowledge of training the body’s energy from qigong, with Chinese medicine theory. It is a complete, holistic medicine that treats the body, emotions, mind, and energy.

A Healing Session
In a typical session, the practitioner and client have a dialog about the client’s health concerns and symptoms, and discuss what will occur in the session. Medical qigong diagnosis occurs through a health questionnaire, conversation, tongue diagnosis, and an energetic assessment that occurs during treatment.

Ayurvedic Fall Cleanse 2015

​Free Informational Seminar: Introduction to Fall Cleansing and Rejuvenation
Tuesday, October 6th from 5:30pm-6:30pm

Picture
According to the Ayurvedic principle of “Rutucharya”, or seasonal routine, fall is an ideal time for a period of intentional, focused self-care – an opportunity to cultivate some healthy new habits and let go of some old, not-so-healthy ones.  For some, this means cleansing.  For others, this means rest & rejuvenation.  Upasana will be offering both a 9-day coached group cleanse and a 5-day supported “rejuvenation therapy” program this fall.

If you’re feeling tired, out of sorts, in need of rest and a fresh start to face the coming winter and holiday season, join us for this free seminar on October 6th and let Upasana help you determine which path might be right for you. The Ayurvedic approach to seasonal routine will help you build immunity and feel clearer, stronger and more energized in the coming winter season.  Below you'll find more details on the two different options.

FREE Class: Introduction to Flower Essences

8/12/2015

If you’ve shopped at a natural health food store, such as Market of Choice or Whole Foods, perhaps you’ve seen a little bottle of Bach’s Rescue Remedy.  Maybe you’ve even tried it yourself.  But have you ever wondered about the science behind the natural stress reliever?  The homeopathic remedy is a flower essence and the variety of flower essences available are far more extensive than the small bottles you’ve seen in the stores.  
Picture
Here at A Healing Space, we have a flower essence specialist on staff who is eager to share more about these potent drops of healing essence.  Sharon Rose, who offers Flower Essence Treatments, will be offering a FREE introductory class this Monday, August 17th from 6:30pm - 8:30pm.  The knowledge shared will give you insight into the extensive and varied healing properties of flower essences.

Free Class: Introduction to Ayurveda

Ayurveda:  Ancient Wisdom for Modern Living

We have a saying in Ayurveda:  Everything is medicine, everything is poison.   Food and lifestyle choices that may balance and provide optimal health for one individual may be all wrong for someone else.  Understanding your unique constitution and “disease proneness”, and learning to recognize imbalance is the key to longevity, peace, and optimal well-being.  

Ayurveda is considered to be the oldest healing science known to humanity.  It originated in India more than 5,000 years ago.  The roots of many “natural healing” systems now familiar in the West have their roots in Ayurveda, and its timeless principles are just as relevant today as they have ever been.  

Join Upasana Giglia, Ayurvedic Practitioner here at A Healing Space, for a FREE informational seminar on Monday evening, August 3rd from 5:30 - 6:30**.  Learn how the timeless principles of Ayurveda can provide you with a deeper understanding of what you need to stay balanced and healthy.  
**Based on your requests, we will be repeating this class on Monday, August 31, from 5:30-6:30pm.**

Space is limited – pre-registration is required. Contact A Healing Space at 541-343-1887 to reserve your seat!

An Interview with Liza Burney - Pranic Healing Teacher

7/14/2015

Comments

 
Are you curious about the Pranic Healing classes we’re offering Saturday, July 18th?  If you’ve been considering possibly attending a class, but still have more questions, this article is for you.  I had the opportunity to spend some time with Liza Burney, owner of Heart-to-Heart Healing, who will be teaching both classes. Not only was it a very interesting interview, but we covered a lot of questions that you might have.  From understanding her background to knowing more about the classes, these are the questions covered in the interview:

·         What made you decide to make the move from practicing law to practicing energy work?
·         What is Pranic Healing?
·         How do you assess the energy system and heal something you can’t see?
·         Do I need any sort of experience to take the class(es)?
·         Who are these tools for?
·         How much time will I need?
·         What can Pranic Healing help with?
·         If I’m under the care of another doctor(s), will this interfere?
·         Can Pranic Healing help with the conditions/issues I’m working with?
·         Who will benefit the most from each of the two classes offered?
·         I’m not a practitioner, can I still attend the energy hygiene class? 
·         Could I attend both classes?  Or is it recommended to choose one or the other?

Heart-to-Heart Healing Offers Professional Development Class

Class from Heart-to-Heart Healing Teaches Techniques to help with “Energy Hygiene and Stress Relief.”

Picture
Are you a Doctor, Nurse, Massage Therapist, Chiropractor, Bodyworker, Hairdresser, Physical Therapist, Social Worker, Counselor, Acupuncturist or anyone else who works closely with people, especially in a healing context?
  • Have you ever felt tired or drained after a long day at work? Or what about feeling heavy and nauseous after listening to another person’s problems?
  • Are you the primary caretaker of another family member?
  • Do you take on the stress of your clients?
  • Does your client feel better, but you feel worse?
  • Do you literally feel your client’s pain?
  • Are you sensitive to dirty energy in a room?
You may be experiencing energy transference.  You can eliminate and prevent this, which is the idea behind “Energy Hygiene.”  Caretaking for others as a profession has specific energetic implications, which if ignored, can lead to stress, burnout, job dissatisfaction and personal illness.

Liza Burney of Heart-to-Heart Healing offers an in-depth Energy Hygiene and Stress Relief class on Saturday, July 18, 2015 from 2:30 to 4:30, A Healing Space, 171 Lawrence St., Eugene, OR 97401. This two-hour course focuses on helping you enhance the use of mind-body medicine and relaxation response techniques in your clinical practice through the use of energy healing techniques.  Participants will learn tools to assess their energetic condition, and learn simple and easy-to-use techniques to help with stress reduction. When you can apply effective prevention and treatment choices known to reduce allostatic load, it improves outcomes in the short-term, lowers the long-term prevalence of diseases, and reduces the likelihood of burnout.  This class is interactive; skills will be practiced as they are learned.

Medical Qigong - Exercise Classes in July

7/6/2015

Comments

 
The 30 minute exercise classes are short and powerful, which makes them easy for people with busy lives. The classes will utilize movement and breathing exercises to shift illness patterns and relieve pain and suffering of health symptoms, stress, and emotional concerns. The exercises treat the root of illness, which supports improvement of health, mental clarity, and emotional contentment. Even complex, chronic, and resistant conditions often respond to Medical Qigong care, because treating the root of illness can invigorate and balance whole systems in the body, heart, and mind. Class drop-ins will be allowed for fifteen minutes at the beginning of every class in July.

The 75 minute Acceptance, Transformation, and Self-Healing Class includes the principles of the short classes that emphasize symptomatic relief, plus additional knowledge and tools for personal growth and change.

If you would like Eric to be informed of your health challenges, you may complete a health questionnaire before or after class. Medical Qigong healing appointments are available to deepen the work; if you are interested, a free ½ hour consultation can be scheduled to discuss what is included in a Medical Qigong healing session. 

To learn more, visit our site at www.qigong-clinic.com. You can register online and make healing appointments using the yellow “Schedule Now” button on the Home Page.  This option asks for prepayment for the service. You can also register to join the class, drop in for a class, or make healing appointments, by contacting Eric at (541) 852-1628 or emailing him at info@qigong-clinic.com.
