Well, we officially survived our first kids camp with lots of activities, fun and great learnings for all. We had 16 - 18 kids attend each day with a different theme for the day. Each morning we started and each afternoon we finished our day with a group circle to set the intent of our day or review the learnings for the day. We also did sun salution as soon as the grass would allow. Below are some highlights from the week:

Monday was Nature Elementals Day where we honoured nature, talked about fairies, built fairie houses and had a frog release ceremony. Remember kids that frogs belong where we find them and we must honour their place and just watch without disturbing them.
Tuesday was Empowerment Day, we had exercises where we learned about meditation, and the power of positive thought. We also had a special guest of Swami Maheshananda Saraswati from India guide us through a mediation and yoga routine. Very powerful, check out the pictures of the kids in our album or on Swami Mahesh's Blog.
Wednesday was Spirit Connection Day learning about the importance of breath, conscious thought, chakras and energy. The kids had a lot of fun using their crystals and pendulums to balance their chakras. An amazing artist, Annie Stewart joined us sharing her art collage doll project. Thank you Annie.
Thursday was about vibration and music and a few lessons from Whisper, the cat. Whisper provided an opportunity to test the kids focus when she climbed up to the top of the tree trying to distract the kids from listening. She then brought us home a present, a little bird. Luckily by using our healing energy we were able to revive the little bird and see it fly away. We then made our own drums so we were ready for Joan Bell and Shawn Milne to share their wisdom of vibration and how it relates to sound. The drumming circles and exposure to all the difference instruments captivated the kids attention. Thanks Joan and Shawn.
Friday was all about recap of our week, fun and frolic. We had hot dogs and s'mores around the fire and then participated in water play and games.

Hope to see you all again next year. Don't forget to send us your comments about this year's camp or ideas for next year.

Namaste, Kerrilynn and Kim

I would like to personally thank all those that participated in making the 3rd Annual Labyrinth & Summer Solstice Celebration the amazing success if was. Check out the photo album. Sorry if I missed anyone in the pictures.

We had amazing music and a sacred ceremony from:

Pam Gerrand, a local Stratford Singer, Songwriter and Sound Healer - check out her website (www.pamgerrand.com) for more info on her or listen to Love is All, one of the songs she sang at the event. I also really like Enough Already.
Rozanna performed a sacred blessing for the event and then drummed us all through the labyrinth. www.rozanna.ca
Lalita and Ananadroopa were joined by Pam, Diane Yeo and Kevin Seyler for Kirtain chanting. The energy was magical. www.littlemangotree.ca

Once the entertainment was complete we opened up the event for the 200+ guests to explore and experience the offerings from all the holistic practitioners and exhibiters.

Late afternoon we enjoyed a group Altantean Healing Session hosted by Shawn Waechter with Sue White channelling in the Altantean's message.

We then closed out the event with a sacred fire ceremony! Many just wanted to pitch a tent and stay for a while longer.

Thanks to everyone that enjoyed the day! It is a pleasure for my family and I to share our space with you. A donation will be made to the Outreach Program from the proceeds of the event.

Hope to see you out next year on Saturday June 18th.

Sunday June 21st 2009

On Sunday June 21 we were blessed with a gorgeous first day of Summer for our second Annual Labyrinth Celebration. The unfortunate point is that it was also Father's Day so attendance was down from last year. In light of this we will hold our celebration on Saturday June 19 next year. Those that attended enjoyed a Drumming meditation with Rozanna Rousseau, Kirtan Chanting from Lalitadevi and Shuddhi, a Qi Qong demo by Jocelyn Brock, Crystal display with Judi Bechard, Kids crafts and games with Annie and Emily Stewart, Healthy Food by Kyle Corbin and the Happy Monks and many other holistic and craft displays. Check-out the pictures from the event!

On Saturday May 30th it was my pleasure to host Judi Bechard for the 'Crystal Clear Energy' workshop. We had 16 participants absorbing Judi's knowledge and experience to better understand their own energy and how to keep it balanced by leveraginge various techniques and crystals. The weather was a beautifil spring day which allowed us to get out and walk the labyrinth during our lunch break. Thank you Kyle Corbin for putting on a very healthy and nutritional lunch! Due to the success of this workshop I will hosting a repeat on Saturday September 19th. Judi and I are also in discussion to host her entire Crystal and Healing program series. Stay tuned for more info.

Wednesday April 22, we gathered to celebrate Earth Day 2009. Due to the rainy weather we were unable to have the celebration out in the Labyrinth so we brought an image of the Labyrinth into the sacred circle of the event. We started the evening with Rozanna Rousseau with a lovely Drum Meditation which called in all our elders and animal/spiritual guides from all 4 directions. We then had Lalitadevi, Anandaroopa, Gita and Shudhi lead various 'call & response' Kirtan Chants. There was definitely a rise in energy/consciousness throughout the evening. Check out the pictures and don't forget to look for the orbs. Thanks to everyone who came out and for making a donation to Sakura House, a local hospice.
