    Planetary Healing
    7-8 pm Free

    The level of peace on the planet at any given moment is the sum total of each of our individual energy. Each of us is capable of enhancing the inner healer in us and acting as a Planetary Healer.

    With our pure intention and focus we can transmit energy to change and shift the patterns of the collective energy grid that surrounds the planet. Shifting the collective energy field is not difficult, especially when we connect with our own Divine Eternal Spirit and then ask for High Beings of Light to assist us to heal discordant energy systems. With divinely aligned intentions, Planetary Healers can create miracles in healing the collective consciousness.
