SPIRITUAL GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT COURSE By Anna Greco
This four-part course has been designed for anyone who believes that there is something more to them than just a physical body. In a world that has lost its way, Spirituality also ignites hope that there is a way back to more equilibrium, to not only better our own lives, but also of those around us.
Mon 6th Oct + Mon 13th Oct + Mon 20th + TBA
10am-12noon
Darley Neighbourhood House - 35 Jonathan Dr, Darley
$25 for each class, pensioners $20.00 ~ cash on the day.
Spirituality is a life journey that I have embarked on and live and practice everyday of my life.
The teachings will be from my own experiences and learning from the last 40 years which have led me to become a Reiki Master, Medium and Channeler.
I would now like to reach out to other souls, to help them find their path of deeper truth and understanding of who they really are.
If you feel a stir in your heart that this may be something that feels right at this time for you, then you are already on your path to becoming more.
Disclaimer
This workshop is a space for spiritual exploration, self-discovery, and personal growth. It is offered with the intention of support and guidance, not as a replacement for medical, psychological, or professional care of any sort.
If you are currently experiencing any mental health challenges, this work shop is not suitable for you, and we encourage you to seek the support of a qualified professional who can provide the care you need.
By joining, you take personal responsibility for your own wellbeing and honour your own boundaries throughout the experience. Please listen to your heart and participate in the way that feels right for you.
