and release negative and limiting patterns

The Oneness Blessing is an energy transfer by touch or by the power of intent. It often facilitates a change in consciousness by creating a shift in our perceptions and our experiences of life. The Oneness Blessing is a non-denominational experience that awakens our connection with the Oneness in everything, allowing us to deepen our relationship with the Divine, with those we love, with ourselves, and with all that is. Bring a Mat and something to cover yourself, also water. Instructions will be sent upon registration.
Location: Unity of Berkeley 2401 Le Conte Ave. at Scenic Ave.
Cost: Early registration $195 (through February 20th) $215 thereafter
To register, contact Elizabeth Scherwenka, escherwenka@gmail.com, 415-497-6992.
Divine Diamond Healing Events
Filed under Past Classes and Workshops
with Aniruddhan, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, February 19-20
Divine Diamond Healing is a unique opportunity to be infused by a very palpable manifestation of Divine Love.
GROUP HEALINGS
Friday, February 19 ~ 7-8pm
Sunday, February 21 ~ 12:30-2pm
Donation Welcome
Divine Diamond Healing allows our consciousness to be elevated to levels that are only achieved through deep states of meditation. It is from the silence within that the manifestation of physical and energetic transformations is possible. We will experience this extraordinary containment field of the Divine Diamond which creates a direct bridge to our Divine Hearts. All are welcome to attend.
DIVINE DIAMOND WORKSHOPS/INTENSIVES
Saturday, February 20 ~ 10am-1:30pm & 3:00-6:30pm
One Workshop: $60 Two Workshops; $105
To be comfortable bring a mat, blanket and pillow.
Activate Inner Sacred Stars, Divine Diamond Healing Structures.
The Workshop/Intensive gives us the ability to anchor this Divine Diamond containment field and work with it, through the cellular, molecular, and energetic activation we receive. We will direct our system’s orientation from homo-sapiens’ survival consciousness, to a universal unification of our humanness. This evolutionary transformation de-densifies our systems, permanently raises our bodies’ frequencey, and positively affects our health and personality. The completion of four, twelve hours of workshop/intensives awakens the Sacred Star of humanity with us. There are ten different certified Sacred Star activations available.

Plant Spirit Medicine of the Amazon
Filed under Past Special Events
with Peruvian healer, Eda Zavala
Friday, January 15, 7:00p-9:00PM
Eda Zavala, descendant of the pre-Hispanic Wari People, a lineage of healers, is a sociologist and anthropologist. She has lived in the Peruvian Amazon for 20 years, coexisting with the traditional medicine of her ancestors. In addition to practicing ancestral medicine with other wise and indigenous healers, she has researched feminine shamanism in the Amazon and works with indigenous communities to help them protect their sacred lands, save the rainforest, and preserve traditional knowledge.
We will begin by calling to the Spirit of Plant Medicine, singing an Icaro to connect to each other. Eda will speak about the Wisdom of the Elders — an oral transmission of the Indigenous Healers about Plant Medicine properties and its power to cure physical and emotional illness. Eda will also share about preserving the Amazon rainforest and its traditions, as well as the importance of learning to hear the message of the plant spirits. We will end the evening sending prayers of gratitude to Mother Nature.
$20 suggested donation
Eda is also available for personal healings at Unity on Saturday, January 16. Cost: $70 for a 45-minute session. Contact her at 347 994-6216 for more information or to make an appointment.
