Access Bars Therapy - demonstration by Sue Sihota on Friday 28th October 2016,
The Bars therapy is based on the premise that our belief systems limit our awareness - the thoughts, ideas, beliefs, considerations, emotions and attitudes that we identify with and regard as important in any lifetime are stored at 32 Bars points on the head. A Bars run on these points clears our pre-conditioning and makes us aware that the infinite universe is continually bestowing gifts which we can accept without obligation.
Acupuncture
28 Apr 2017 - The 5 Elements of Acupuncture by Robin Croley, acupuncturist in Chesterfield.
Bonding by Laying on of Hands
Members work in pairs to channel universal love and their own affections to each other with the intent of bonding and healing.

She gave a brief introduction pointing out the body doesn't know the difference between real and fake laughter which have the same benefits. She then introduced the elements of a laughter session - laughter, chanting, clapping, talking gibberish, singing and then go into a session using playful exercise to help people do all of the above and explain the health benefits as we go along. We gained a knowledge of when to laugh, how to laugh and why we should laugh.
