with Brooke Pohl

Brooke will lead a introduction into the beautiful art of Ikebana, Japanese flower arranging. She will have a follow-up, hands-on workshop the next weekend (click here to learn more about that!).

Ikebana, rooted in a Japanese tradition, is a contemplative art of flower arrangement that can teach mindfulness, discipline, confidence and self awareness. If we 'listen' to a flower, we connect with nature and can express our heart and mind through the creation of a harmonious arrangement. Brooke Pohl has practiced and taught ikebana throughout the US for nearly 25 years.

*Brooke is also holding an Ikebana  workshop on Saturday, May 16th from 10-Noon with guided flower arranging! 

*Friday, June 12th: Emotional Culture with Rhea Lehman

This talk explores the phenomena of our emotions and our emotional patterns.  Learn in greater depth how biology (the innate affects) and biography combine to uniquely "script" our individual emotional responses.  And learn how familial and cultural communities contribute directly to patterns in our lives.  Practical concepts and approaches will be introduced to support greater consciousness of our emotions, while maximizing the flow of positive feeling. (Rhea is also giving a workshop on Learning through Feeling at the end of June. Learn more!)

*Friday, July 10th: "Exploring the Consciousness of our Cells" with Michelle Morgan, MA, CCC/SLP*

*Friday, October 9th: "Introduction to Essential Oils and Aromatic Botanical Medicine" with Blythe Jamieson

“Essential oils are ‘vital substances’ – the natural alchemical synergy of plant and sun.”  Gabriel Mojay

 Listen as Blythe Jamieson shares the vision of her custom therapeutic essential oils practice.  After years of appreciating treatment from Traditional Chinese Medicine and herbs, Blythe is committed to sharing the science and mystery of these oils with others.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine SHEN is the residence of the heart and mind.  HANA is the Japanese word for flower.  So SHEN HANA is the practice of healing heart and mind with aromas from the plant world.

Aromatic botanical medicine is a term that describes how scented plants are traditionally used in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine.  Essential oils have been used for centuries in the realm of perfumery and flavoring.  Healing with these oils (often called aromatherapy) is actually a more modern development unique to western culture. 

Essential oils are derived from volatile plant liquids.  Flowers, stems, leaves and roots may all be used in their creation.  The oils capture both the substance and the spirit of the plant.  The benefit of using an essential oil is delivered through your senses.  The aroma travels to your brain’s limbic system and resonates with your emotions and spirit.  Therapeutic essential oils have been shown to affect mood, emotion, temperament, and physical health.  An individualized approach can be a more effective treatment than standard, ready-made blends found in stores.  A unique individual benefits from a unique remedy.

Join us and learn about top, middle, and base notes, the individual consultation process, and how custom blends of therapeutic essential oils are created and applied.  You will have the opportunity to inhale beautiful aromas and hear stories about those who have benefited from this plant world gift.

AMAZING, PROFESSIONAL & KIND: "This was my first experience at The Light Clinic and also meeting Joseph for the first time. I feel so utterly blessed to have found Joseph and his "healing hands". He was professional and knowledgeable, while being personable and gentle. He explained everything in detail, so my comfort level was at an all-time high. Thank you Joseph and thank you Light Clinic!"
GREAT OPTION FOR ALTERNATIVE HEALTHCARE: "Love the whole body approach at the Light Clinic! Have had several treatments and very pleased.You will enjoy the healing atmosphere and the personal attention you receive from these practitioners.

ALWAYS THE BEST: "My time with Mary Frank Slaughter is always so comforting. I am assured of her expertise and loving care. She'll find things before my doctor does and it always surprises him when he tells me something and I tell him my CranioSacral Therapist told me the same thing. The entire staff is also like this. Do yourself a favor - go see them."
