The Book of Changes I Ching is considered to
be the Oldest Oracle & Book of Conduct on Earth. It is at least 1500 years
older than Confucius, who added commentaries to the lines of the sixty-four
hexagrams of the I Ching. It is used to predict events, but more often as a way
to promote self-development and to contact one’s Higher Self. Situations or
observed moments, usually created by the toss of three coins or yarrow stalks,
define one of sixty-four elemental states of being represented by the hexagrams.
Through interpretation, the querant knows both the question and route intended

Their services are fully legal and legitimate. The religious and spiritual teachings of several diverse traditions are drawn upon in the creation of worship services and ceremonies, i.e., weddings, funerals, baby namings, memorial services, etc. Spiritual counseling and guidance is an important component in the Interfaith Ministry. This approach may appeal
to those who are non-religious yet deeply spiritual, those who would like to
incorporate a more universal approach with the practices of the religion of
their birth, and those who are in relationships or marriages with people of
different religions. Rev. Maureen Burwell-Orfino-Pollinger Iridology is the analysis
of the iris of the eye, which reveals pertinent information about the condition
of the body. Acting as an early warning system, Iridology can indicate genetic
and functional weaknesses, tissue and organ condition, areas of nutritional
depletion and need, areas of inflammation and toxicity, and the general body
constitution. This information is acquired by “reading” the fiber and
markings of the iris, which (to the well trained eye of the Iridologist) is
indicative of specific body areas and the corresponding conditions. >Visions of Health—Jensen

JIN SHIN DO BODYMIND ACUPRESSURE—“The Way of Compassionate Spirit” is a complete and gentle approach to body work that is a synthesis of traditional ancient acupuncture principles, Taoist philosophy and Western psychological thinking. Jin Shin Do offers a view of the individual in which chronic patterns of body tension or armoring are linked to attitudinal states.

Suggested Readings: ______________________ There are many Journaling methods, but perhaps the best known is that created by the noted Jungian psychologist, Ira Progroff. Called the Intensive Journal, it helps one gain new perspectives, clarity and insights on one’s life as a whole. One learns an effective method to break free from self-defeating patterns and to ease situations of stress and conflict. The writing draws on one’s
intuitive powers and becomes a psychological tool for re-focusing one’s life
and making decisions about future steps. The Journal process is evocative rather
than analytical and judgmental, and frequently assists one in the writing of a
spiritual biography. K
Kabbalah emerged as a
distinct mystical movement within Judaism in medieval Europe. The Kabbalistic “Tree of
Life” transmits divine grace upon our world and also provides a safe structure
for ascension to the divine realms. The Kabbalist yearns for the experience of
direct contact with the divine and the recovery of cosmic consciousness without
renouncing the world. According to Kabbalah every human action here on earth
affects the divine realm, and it is up to us to actualize divine potential in
the world. Kabbalah is a symbolic interpretation of the inner life of the
creator that reveals the mysteries of creation and illuminates our own divine
nature.
Traditionally, kinesiology had been the study of movement. With the
advent of Applied Kinesiology (AK) in 1964 by Dr. George Goodheart,
chiropractor, kinesiology would never be the same. It has developed into
a leading branch of natural, conservative health care practiced primarily by
doctors of chiropractic. Suggested Reading:
