Join Jonathan Ellerby for a journey into a world more amazing than you can imagine—a place of unlimited power, potential, and peace: your inspired self.
Envision your health, your relationships, and your work . . . all fueled by a sense of vitality and freedom. In this practical, easy-to-read book, you’ll learn simple steps that have already helped thousands of people from all walks of life discover the incredible energy and daily peace they were born to experience. It’s not about giving you other people’s answers; it’s about helping you find your own, and having the tools to put them into action. Learn why an inspired life is critical to your health and happiness.
The shocking truth is that the majority of challenges people face today—relating to high stress, weight gain, dating and divorce, job dissatisfaction, fear, anger, depression, addiction, and loneliness—are all just symptoms of a single underlying problem: Inspiration Deficit Disorder. This common condition is the result of being disconnected from one’s natural wisdom, talent, and sense of what matters most. As you read the material within these pages, you’ll see that you can correct this imbalance faster than you think. Inspiration is a choice!

Tea of the Month
Georgia Peach Rooibos
| Country of Origin: |
South Africa |
| Grade: |
Choice Grade #1 |
| Cup Characteristics: |
Absolutely exquisite! Superb mouth watering sweet peach notes create a taste symphony. |
| Ingredients: |
Luxury rooibos, Blackberry leaves, Calendula petals, Natural flavors.
|
 Have you ever tasted a Georgia peach? Super sweet, tangy and juicy, the peach is Georgia’s best-loved export and one of summer’s tastiest treats. The natural sweetness of the fruit makes it a perfect addition to our South African Rooibos. And why is that? Because the inherent slight sweetness of Rooibos (Latin: Aspalathus linearis) is perfectly complimented by that of the peach and creates an herbal tea that is packed with subtle nuances and a complex flavor profile.
Like all herbal teas, this Rooibos based blend is caffeine free. But did you know that Rooibos has many other health benefits as well? South African studies conducted over the years have determined that Rooibos tea is high in iron, potassium, zinc, manganese and sodium. As such, any Rooibos based drink is not only great for sipping morning, noon, and night, but for the actively health conscious out there, it also makes a fantastic post workout refresher. But even if your most strenuous exercise is quietly sitting in a low-slung porch swing in the midday sun, the benefits of drinking this tea are still positive.
Brew yourself a pot, enjoy it hot, and savor the aromas of fresh peaches. It also goes without saying that this tea, poured over ice is simply fantastic. Try some today - as you recline, listening to the ice cubes tinkling in your glass, the condensation cooling your hand, we’re sure you’ll find the peachy flavor in your cup to be at once soothing, relaxing, and revitalizing. |
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Even though milk and a dash of sugar help enhance the flavor character on this tea, it is perfectly acceptable to consume this tea ‘straight-up’
Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or ‘milky’ when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!

Spotlight on Services:
Crystal Toning
 For thousands of years, crystal singing bowls have been played by healers to alleviate pain and restore physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.
Crystal bowls are made from 99.992% crushed quartz and heated to about 4000 degrees in a centrifugal mold. Each bowl is tested with digital technology to identify its sound. The notes, C,D,E,F,G,A,B correspond with one's energy centers or chakras.
When an organ or body part is healthy, it creates a natural resonant frequency in harmony with the rest of the body. When the vibration of a part of the body is out of harmony, we have dis-ease. With dis-ease, a different sound pattern is established in the affected part of the body. When sound is projected into the diseased area with the crystal bowls, correct harmonic patterns are restored.
Natalie uses her intuition and crystal knowledge in her healing sessions to determine what tones will benefit you the most in terms of physical, emotitional and spiritual well-being. You lay comfortably on a massage table, fully clothed while you experience this wonderful form of healing.
Practitioner: Natalie G
30 minute session....................................$45
To book an appointment please call 403-279-9555
Natalie also facilitates a monthly Toning Evening, please click here for more info.

Inner Springtime
By Ma Ananda Sangavasini, Reiki Master & Intuitive Life Coach @ the Divine Mine
.jpg)
In this article I would like to elaborate more on last month’s article on taking the leap into our potential. Just like the four seasons in one year, these seasons can be found on a macro cosmic level and microcosmic level as well. In the macro cosmic level we will see it as a shift in eras, planetary changes that happen seemingly slowly as the years pass by. We see the change of seasons on a microcosmic level reflected in our lives each year, and throughout our lives – from Birth, to Childhood, Adolescence, Adulthood and Seniorhood. As per the definition of our numerologist Vikki MacKinnon, we move through cycles within cycles, continuously. We are now experiencing a huge shift in cycles on all these levels.
Right now, we have entered the season of spring. Spring is a time of new beginnings, new growth, new life. After the silence of the wintertime, nature is slowly awakening at its own pace. The trees are not bothered if it is still snowing or not. The birds sing their song, even though the green leaves are nowhere to be seen. The sun is still there, every now and then peaking its warm rays through the thick cloud deck. Snow flakes are gently making their way down from far above, unaware that the calendar points out that it is past March 21st, the first day of spring time. As we observe nature, we can see that silently, patiently, all these different parts of nature are completely surrendered to the law of the Universe, to the innate intelligence that is running the whole show. The beautiful thing is, that nature does not know that it is surrendered. It does not know it patiently obeys the universal law without any protest or complaints. It simply follows the formless intelligence that runs through it all. The reason that this happens effortlessly is that nature does not have a human mind.
Human beings are part of this universal dance also, whether the mind tells them they are not, whether they want it or not, believe it or not. No matter how much we complain about the weather, how much we resist, how much we fight, our physical body goes through these changes also. How can we enjoy this inner spring time that is happening? Over and over, I fall back onto the same thing: awareness. My guru, Paramahamsa Nithyananda Swamiji has recently given a technique that we can apply to this also. Pick one quality of nature that you resonate with – i.e. intelligence, stillness, compassion, bliss, abundance joy, self expression, existence – whatever this is to you. Pick one quality, and throughout the day, focus on that quality, fill your inner space with it. This quality is already a part of you; by focusing on it a deep remembrance will happen that will awaken this quality fully in you. Your life will become very sweet and amazing. This technique will also burn all negativity in you as well as the collective negativity. Important thing to remember is, as I always say; don’t believe my word for it, but try it out and just see what happens without expectations. Your direct experience is what will give you the answer to find out if this works or not. Enjoy!!! Happy Springtime!!!
Sangavasini will be facilitating a RISE & SHINE MEDITATION on Saturday, April 2nd, REIKI LEVEL ONE on Sunday, April 3rd, ART OF EXPERIENCING SACRED GEOMETRY on Monday, April 11th, REIKI LEVEL ONE on Sunday, April 24th, and the LIFE BLISS PROGRAM on Saturday & Sunday April 30th & May 1st.
