Dan & Ashley Livingston

Connectors to Higher Consciousness/Spirit Realm

Ashley is a very experienced Healer and Energy worker. She is a  Natural Healer and has had unusual abilities since she was young. She has been practising Healing/ Trance and Physical Mediumship for many years. 

 

Ashley learned how to change her levels of consciousness, which enabled her to access Universal Healing Energies and Universal knowledge. She has the ability to allow the spirit world to over shadow her whilst she is working with her clients. She is able to help you release any emotional, mental or physical blockages that you may be carrying. 

 

Ashley works from the heart and is a very kind and caring individual. Many feel like they may have met her before, this can only be explained by the maternal unconditional love that you feel from her.  When you work with Ashley you will experience a unique and powerful session leaving your mind, body and spirit calm and vitalised.

 

Dan is a Vietnam Veteran.  His journey with the drum began in the mid 80’s in Australia, where he met a Native American Medicine man/shaman, Eagle Man (Ed McGaa), they bonded like  brothers as they both shared similar experiences during the war of Vietnam. Ed showed Dan how to create Native American Crafts and Healing Tools.  He taught Dan many ceremonies and how to connect and heal with the voice and spirit of the drum.

 

Ed told Dan to go and share all that he had learned with the people that will be perfectly placed on your path.  His journey has continued with drum in hand, Dan has performed many ceremonies and drum healing sessions.

 

On the Divine S.O.U.L. Retreat in the group session you will learn about herbs, smudge bowl, sacred directions etc.  as well as make your own Smudging Feather which you will use in the smudge cleaning ceremony.  Ashley and Dan will then take the group into a drumming healing session. Drumming connects you with your bones, your heartbeat and your natural rhythms. As they move around the group you will be able to connect with the drum letting your feelings transfer into the drum. The drum acts as a mediator between the drummer and the spirit world, between space and time, power and people.When Ashley and Dan drum, their intuition is acute and they feel for spirit. As they wait they call for holy and sacred space. The drum acts as a channel. A method of entering and   projecting the attention into the areas of consciousness that in normal life are unobtainable.

 

Ashley and Dan will also be offering a Smudge Wand Workshop and Voice & Spirit of The Drum PLUS 1:1 Private Sessions include Quantum Massage with Ashley and Voice & Spirit of the Drum Healing with Dan.

Filipe Silva

Holistic Therapist/QiGong

Filipe Silva is from the Algarve. He is a holistic therapist, dedicated since 2008 to help people relax and release their mental, emotional and body restraints using tools like Reiki, Biorgonomy/Hatmara, Thai Yoga Massage/Thai Body Work, Indian Head Massage, Full Body Oil Massage.

 

He has been practising Shotokan Karate since 2010 and began to feel the need to work with stillness in a meditative way. So through this, he discovered the power of QiGong.

 

Filipe started practising Qigong in 2016, doing the Zhan Zhuang Therapeutic QiGong course at the Macrobiotic Institute of Portugal with the master Lourenço de Azevedo.

 

CHI KUNG:  Chi is energy and Kung is work. Chi Kung can be defined as the Art of Working with Vital Energy.  QiGong is what it is called in the East and Chi Kung in the West, and for me, it is Meditation in Motion and it aims to align the physical body, mind and breath through movement and stillness.

 

Chi Kung is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and aims to align the body, breath and mind with a combination of movements and postures through breathing.

The practice of Chi Kung stimulates the flow of energy within the body so that it moves and harmonizes through the meridians and our chakras.

 

To practice Therapeutic Chi Kung is to seek harmony through postural alignment, regularization of breathing and the cultivation of mental intention. Every movement, every posture requires the body, breath and mind to work together. When this happens the energy of the practitioner is strengthened.

 

ZHAN ZHUANG: Zhan Zhuang is pronounced “Jam Jong” in Cantonese or “Jan Juang” in Mandarin and means “standing like a tree”.  It is like all traditional styles of Chi Kung a practice that acts on the Chi energy of the human being in a global way.  The particularity of this style is the use of stillness as a preferred practice for the study and investigation of Chi in the human being.

 

On The Divine S.O.U.L. Retreat, Filipe will be offering: QiGong group sessions PLUS 1:1 Private Session of Thai Body Work Massage.
