Full Moon Meditation
with Devinder Kaur (Alison)
Thursday, December 8th
5:45 PM - 7:15 PM

"Experiencing yoga and meditation at the Full Moon when the energy of the universe is at its highest, will enhance the benefits of the meditation a thousand fold.

The moon has always been an integral part of our lives. Whether it is celebrating a festival or starting an auspicious task, or meditating, we consider the movements of the moon. The moon represents our human self and the full moon in particular symbolizes the state of wholeness that human being attains at full self-realization.

Enjoy this special class that calls upon the powerful energy of the full moon. We will learn the astrology for the Full Moon and do a short yoga set (kriya) and meditation that taps into the qualities of the full moon energy. Our class concludes with a deep relaxation with the healing sounds of the Gong and Crystal Singing Bowls!

What to bring: Yoga mat, blanket/shawl & show up early! Complimentary homemade organic cookies and a warming cup of Yogi Tea served after class. All ages and abilities welcome!

Cost: Use your PranaShanti Class Card or Sign Up Now with a Drop-In Fee.

Note: The day of the Full Moon is particularly good for fasting on lemon water with a natural sweetener because the secretions in your body will be at their maximum (thanks to the magnetism of the moon). You may not want your energy being used to digest food ... save your energy to reconstruct yourself. Try to drink only liquids on this day. Or, you could eat very lightly and drink the lemon & water.

Tuesday Night Wellness Chats
Is your headache is giving you a headache?
with Dr. Dominic Vallee
Tuesday, December 6th
7:30 PM - 9:00 PM 
        

Every few weeks, on a Tuesday evening, we will be hosting some of Ottawa's best Health and Wellness practioners for a series of Wellness "chats". This is an incredible opportunity to investigate new modalities of natural and non-invasive healing in an informal and relaxed setting. This is a great way to learn more about Natural Healing Arts and to meet some wonderfully dedicated and talented healers within our community.

This session, meet Dr Dominic Vallee, a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine from the Canadian College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (CCAOM), the oldest college of TCM in Canada, located in Victoria, B.C.

Dr Vallee also has additional training in Intra-Dermal Therapy, NADA Protocole, Sports Massage, and energy work and has studied and worked in South Korea. Dr. Vallee treats various health issues presented to him by his patients, although he has a great interest in pain management, stress and anxiety, and respiratory disorders.

Dr. Vallee’s philosophy: "It is with the utmost respect for the human body, mind, and spirit that I approach my patients. I believe that pain is the result of an imbalance of the whole body and treatments will be geared toward removing the pain and its root-cause, harmonizing yin and yang to find that balance given to us at birth."

Painkillers don't work anymore? Would you like to find out the root-cause of your headaches? In this session, Dr Vallee will explain the main cause of headaches, from a Traditional Chinese Medicine point of view, and what can be done to eliminate them so you can be pain-free .... without pain-killers.

Cost: Suggested $20.00 per person donation for charity.
