The Spiritual Understanding Series: Trust Silence - With Jim Ryan Thu 11 Dec, from 07:30pm to 09:00pm At Global Retreat Centre
MAKE INNER SILENCE YOUR MOST LOVING AND TRUSTED FRIEND.
In Raja Yoga, taught by the Brahma Kumaris, we often refer to the ‘Power of Silence’ versus the ‘Power of Science’. By science we mean the practical modern tools to get things done and achieve aims. By ‘the Power of Silence’ we mean the immense yet so subtle power generated by becoming completely still. Many who have trusted and experimented with this power attest to almost magical results – first with its ability to transform themselves, and then with the results on their world.
Tonight Jim Ryan who is a teacher, management consultant and author, and who has been practising and teaching Raja Yoga since the 1970s, will help you begin your own experiments with a blend of humour, lightness and practical up-to-date strategies.

‘FOOD HEAVEN’ WORKSHOPS 08/12/2008 Friends Meeting House, Saffron Walden
If you are longing to escape the Diet Trap and enjoy food again rather than obsessing about it, contact me about the ‘Food Heaven’ programme, a radically new approach with no meal replacements, no deprivation and absolutely no dieting.
Most people know that diets don’t work, but the Diet Industry spends billions each year trying to persuade us that when they don’t, it’s our fault!
The good news is that we are all born with bodies that know how to eat perfectly as well as breathe perfectly to maintain our optimum size and health, and it’s never too late to recover this natural balance.
The 5-part ‘Food Heaven’ course consists of exercises in awareness combined with Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to enable participants to recognise clearly the body’s hunger/full signals, rediscover the joy of eating and see their weight normalise gradually and naturally as a consequence - and stay that way!
And in the process they acquire a valuable tool for life! EFT (‘The Tapping’) is derived from Thought Field Therapy, a technique currently receiving a high level of interest since being used by hypnotist Paul McKenna to address smoking, phobias and weight issues.
A ‘Food Heaven’ group currently meets on Monday evenings 7.30 - 9.00 pm at Friends’ Meeting House, High Street, Saffron Walden

The Anatomy and Physiology award is the ‘foundation’ upon which all other Complementary, Beauty and Sports Therapy awards are based. It is comprised of several units encompassing all systems of the body.
It is vital that a therapist understands the anatomy and physiology in detail, as they will be working in direct contact with the body structures. It is also vital that they have a full knowledge of diseases and disorders of the human so that they are aware of when and when not to treat a client and only operate within certain perimeters.
