"I would like to invite you to a deep relaxation,
guided visualization & colour meditation..."

This is an invitation to enjoy a deep relaxation and to experiencing a mind expanding series of visualizations.
We will connect with Gaia, visit the ends of the universe, and get in touch with your higher consciousness. Some of the session will be based on the 7 huna principles, (huna meaning 'secret'), and the shaman and huna workshops that I attended in Hawaii. Some of it will be based on the eastern chakras, theta healing and other concepts. As each chakra and huna principle has a colour associated with it, colour as a meditation will also be a focus for the session. There is a lot of cross-over, as the sessions are not based rigidly on a single philosophy. As the Hawaiians would say:
A'ohe pau ka 'ike i ka halau ho'okahi
"All knowledge is not taught in one school"
You will need to allow around 2 hours for each session. These are suggested times, but based on the suggested evening timetable, arrive around 7pm. At 7:15, we would start the evening by outlining the huna principle and the chakra for that evening. A quick stretch, and then at 7:45pm, we would start the relaxation and visualization session. This session would go around 45 minutes and that would then leave around 30 minutes minutes for the group to share their experience - if you feel like sharing. (But, whatever the timetable, it is really important we start and finish on time. Arrive at least a few minutes before the start of discussion, otherwise you won't receive the full benefit. Please note, that once the group meditation has started, ~ 7:45 ~ no one will be admitted - no exceptions!)
A SUGGESTED EVENING TIMETABLE:
• Arrival from 7:00pm - it's best if you have no stimulants beforehand: coffee, tea, cola, etc .
• Outline from 7:15pm - an outline of where the mediation will go.
• Session start at 7:45pm - Definitely no admittance once the group visualization has started!
• Session finish by 8:30pm - discussion, with a light supper - tea and biscuits.
• Leave from around 9:00pm - (leave anytime after 8:30, just give yourself a few moments to return before going.)
WEEKEND / WEEKDAY TIMETABLE: Daytime has more flexibility than evenings. Therefore, virtually any two hour block of time is a possibility - please get in contact with David to discuss time, venue and numbers.
WHEN? Most evenings and weekends. When you organize to host your own sessions, consider that you need 8 consecutive sessions - an introductory session and then 7 main sessions. Same day, same time, same location is best.
WHERE? Venues with comfortable seating that are reasonably quiet, but it doesn't have to be silent. Yoga mats are good if there is space to stretch out. The main disturbance issues to consider; sudden loud noises, pets & young children.
WHO? Anyone with an open mind and a willingness to explore their imagination. Past experience has shown that there is an 'energy' associated with a group, but numbers will ultimately depend upon the venue. The minimum number to run a series of sessions would be would be 8 (7 guests & the host). The maximum number depends on the facilities.
COST? The initial session is an introduction and is $10/person. For those who choose to continue with the 7 main sessions, the investment is $200. The host for the sessions should organise for the fee to be paid in full before the next or 1st main session commences. The host's fee is $100. NB: There are no refunds for missed sessions or withdrawals.
