No Guts, No Glory!
Energy Medicine for Healthy Digestion
Presented by: Marjorie Fein
Monday, May 1, 2023
Twenty years ago it was a rare occurrence to know anyone with chronic digestive issues. Now, Irritable Bowel Syndrome is so common that we can just say “IBS” and everyone knows what you are referring to. Problems with the digestive system are now rampant in our society – colitis, IBS, acid reflux, food intolerances, chronic constipation are all conditions we have become all too familiar with, and they can be particularly stubborn to shift. Knowing how to help our clients find health and peace in this area greatly improves quality of life and brings more fun to the table!
In this class students will:
- Learn broad-stroke understanding of the organs and functions of the digestive system: Understanding the function of the individual organs greatly increases our ability to effectively hone in on the imbalances we encounter.
- Learn many simple and effective new tests and balances for working with the digestive system as a whole and the individual organs: Students learn a 2-minute routine to tonify all the organs of the digestive system, as well as energy-tools targeted to specific organs.
- Explore the emotional and metaphorical meaning relating to these different organs: Understanding the subtler implications of the physical structures we work with greatly expands our ability to effect change. Grappling with a tough decision might be the sole reason one’s small intestine is not working well.
- Learn simple do’s and don’ts to bring to the table: Do create a warm, inviting atmosphere, do share your meals with loved ones, do enjoy your food! Don’t talk about politics, money, or your divorce, don’t eat at the computer, don’t jump up as you chew the last bite of your food. These small adjustments can greatly improve your digestive health.

Thyroid and Adrenals: A Sacred Marriage
Presented by: Debra Hurt
Monday, August 7, 2023
The Thyroid and Adrenals are practically inseparable. They go everywhere together. They do everything together. They are very, very close; just like a good marriage. Like any marriage, sometimes they don’t get along so well and need some perspective. This class will give you a rich, practical understanding of what’s going on in this partnership and how to help when things go wrong. You will receive an extensive handout and practical tools for keeping these glands humming.
While women still outnumber men with thyroid diagnoses, men are quickly catching up. In fact, this will be one of the most common problems you will see in your office. One that touches almost every physical system and energy system. Understanding how the thyroid and adrenals work, and how they relate to each other can really improve your effectiveness with clients!
We will discuss the Anatomy and Physiology of the glands, the many, many symptoms they can present when unhappy and LOTS of energy remedies for dealing with them. In fact, just using what you already know has a big impact on these all-important glands. And we'll learn even more.

Rooting the Spirit
Spirit and Ghost Points
Presented by: Sara Allen
Monday, November 6, 2023
I had a client that suffered terribly from depression and anxiety. She had been hospitalized multiple times, medicated into comas, checked for brain tumors. She had had a vagal nerve implant surgically embedded in her chest. And, of course, she spent years and years in talk therapy. The pain was immobilizing. Her thoughts were excruciating, intrusive and terrifying.
She made some very good improvements with Energy Medicine treatments. She felt that the EM sessions were the only thing that ever really made an impact. However, she did not find any deep and lasting relief – just fleeting moments of “ok-ness”. These moments of lightness or “ok-ness” felt to her “like a cruel tease”. She felt like she was not able to “keep the gift of healing” she would experience in those moment. She said she always had to “give the healing back.”
Then one session, as she felt one of those periods of “ok-ness” begin to fade, she asked me if I thought she was possessed by evil spirits. She could not understand why her sadistic father’s voice was still in her head. She had not seen or spoken to him in over 40 years. Why did she still suffer so after all she learned about her traumas and all she had done to heal? She said she felt haunted.
I knew that Ancient Chinese Medicine (ACM) texts spoke often about possession. I knew there were ancient protocols that treated possession. However, everything I studied from modern day acupuncture practitioners about these protocols – the vibe was that the ACM treatments for possession were thought to be simply the ancients trying to understand/describe mental illness. The protocols were largely dismissed. The thinking being that the ancients just did not have the modern diagnostic tools and/or language to discuss what they observed 5000 years ago.
This class returns to a most ancient of all point protocols called the Song of the 13 Ghost Points. The modern application of these points, using the tool of kinesiology, has become a key element in the successful management for many troubling and confusing cases. The 13 Ghost Point Protocol, combined with the Spirit Point Protocol, have become my go to techniques when I find other protocols lacking.
This class, yes of course, there is discussion about mental health. However, I have found that Ghost Point treatments profoundly connect folks to their purpose – their most inner guides. This protocol, combined with the Spirit Points, seems to act like a hyper link to our best collective conscious and unconscious selves. It leaves clients able to hear their OWN still inner voice, above the noise of so many other influences, and deeply connects clients to the guidance of their ancestors in ways I have not seen in other modes. That is what I love most about these techniques – we gain access to our most magnanimous self, as well as merge with the depth of ancestral wisdom that we all carry in our DNA.
