The Power of Real Hypnosis
In this presentation, Donald will reveal the amazing truth about the power of real hypnosis. You'll discover what hypnosis really is and perhaps more importantly what it is not. No, hypnosis is not like what you see in the movies or on TV. It cannot turn you into a mindless zombie. Rather, it's an incredible way to harness the deepest recesses of your mind to help you achieve your goals. It is so powerful in this that it seems to work like magick...in fact, you'll also learn how to use hypnosis to enhance any of your magickal work. You'll experience what hypnosis is like without being hypnotized, and if you want, you can safely experience real hypnosis, too!

Greek Nature Deities and Gaia Conciousness
While the primary deities of the ancient Greeks were the twelve Olympians, there were numerous lesser deities, daimons and heroes also enjoying patronage. The polytheistic and animistic world of the ancient Greeks pulsed with life. The world ocean was Okeanos, the earth was the goddess Gaia, the four winds were gods, as were the rivers, and springs were divine nymphs.
Today, Gaia Consciousness is manifesting as the environmental movement, earth-based spirituality, and a trend towards seeking unity within diversity.
Workshop will include an invocation to the Greek Nymphs.
