FREE WORKSHOPS for your organization, conference, support group, church group, club or association.:  We want to get the word out about the launching of our workshops on CD.  We offer our services customized to the needs of your group.  We would not charge a speaker / presenter fee, only asking that our CD / workbooks are available should any of your group want them. 

We are scheduling events around the country in the early fall and these are our plans: 

  • September - eastern coastal U.S. (GA, SC, NC, TN, VA, WV, DC, MD, DE, NJ, PA, NY, etc.)
  • Late October / early November - western U.S. (CA, NV, UT, ID, etc.)

It is so important for us to get the word out that we can HEAL from our past and that our relationships can improve.

Part of our mission is to offer hope but we need your help!

Contact us at Larainecha@charter.net if you are interested.

Divine Collage - 15401 Durant St.,Silver Spring, MD
Date / Time: Every Other Month.  Next one:  Saturday, September 27:  9:30 - 12 noon

Description: 
 Let your inspiration come out and speak to you!  Perhaps you've heard of "The Secret," and "Vision Boards" -- Well, that's a start, finding pictures that express what you want to create in your life.  Creative Journal Expressive Arts can take you from the Images to Reality, by quietly dialoguing with your own intuitive ideas.  It's a proven tool for discovering what your desires are and what needs to happen to realize them.  It's fun, it's safe.  You can explore any area of your life.  With that in mind, I am offering an every-other-month morning of "Divine Collage."  We will pick a theme from what's "Up" for us in our current lives, create a magazine collage that expresses it visually, and then begin to explore it with writing.  On Sep. 27th the theme will be "If I Could Have What I Truly Want" - about our Possibilities!    
Cost $30 per person, all materials supplied.
