Join Meir Schneider PhD, L.M.T as he visits the Santa Rosa area for the first time at the Unity Church of Santa Rosa where he will lead an interactive lecture and workshop in which he will discuss his comprehensive life therapy: promoting movement education, therapeutic massage, self-massage, passive movement, gentle movement exercises, breathing, visualization, and vision training.
Learn how you can incorporate his simple and powerful principles into your daily life and create health and vitality...even as you age.
The Meir Schneider Method of Self-Healing Through Bodywork and Movement empowers you to take charge of your own health and unlock the body’s ability to heal itself. Self-Healing is body-mind work. The Self-Healing Method combines massage, movement and breathing education, visualization and, for those who need it, vision improvement training. The development of kinesthetic awareness is fundamental to Self-Healing.
Meir Schneider was born with cataracts and other serious vision problems. After five unsuccessful surgeries on the lenses of his eyes, which left them shattered and filled with scar tissue, doctors pronounced his condition hopeless and he was certified permanently legally blind. He performed his reading and schoolwork in Braille. At age 17, Meir learned the Bates Method of eye exercises. He practiced them with a diligence that probably no one had ever applied to them before, up to 13 hours a day, undeterred by the skepticism of family and friends. To this he added his own regimen of self-massage and movement. Within six months, he could recognize visual objects for the first time; within 18 months, he could read print without glasses. His vision continued to improve, and today is 20/80. He holds a current unrestricted California driver’s license. During his recovery process, while still a teenager, Meir began to help others with a wide range of degenerative conditions, such as polio, muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis. He found that the same principles which enabled him to gain functional eyesight could be applied to the entire body.
His discoveries led to the creation of the Meir Schneider Method of Self-Healing through Bodywork and Movement, helping tens of thousands of people with serious physical and visual conditions worldwide. An internationally respected therapist and educator, Meir is the founder and director of the School for Self-Healing in San Francisco, the author of The Natural Vision Improvement Kit, Movement for Self-Healing, Yoga for Your Eyes, Meir Schneider’s Miracle Eyesight Method, Self-Healing: My Life and Vision and the principal author of The Handbook of Self-Healing. He was awarded a PhD in the Healing Arts for his work with muscular dystrophy. www.self-healing.org

Our 18th Annual ...
WOMEN'S VISIONING CIRCLE
Women of Power Empowering You
Two special days of Visioning and Manifesting
January 8 and 9, 2011
with Evalena Rose
Drumming Circle led by Barbara Borden, Keeper of the Beat
Join us for enchanting rituals designed to manifest new realities in
your life, using the magic inherent in a circle of powerful women to
call them into being.
VISIONING RITUAL: Saturday, January 8, 10:00AM ~ 9:30PM
Dive deep to discover what blocks treasured goals from coming true, then
drum and chant as each woman releases her blocks to the fire. Enjoy
Barbara Borden's mastery in guiding the drumming to serve each dance of
release.
Explore your life purpose, then share the pleasures of creating
colorful treasure maps as you develop goals in nine areas of your life.
The day builds to a crescendo of empowerment as peers and colleagues
witness and support you breathing life into your fondest visions. In
sacred celebration we co-create magic for ourselves and for the planet.
Women report dreams coming true all year from this empowerment ritual!
"I love this ritual. I come back year after year because it helps me
manifest the life of my dreams. I love having my goals in color and
form to look at daily as I watch them come true."
MOVING VISIONS INTO REALITY: Sunday, January 9, 10:30AM ~ 5:30PM
Building on Saturday's goals, weaving strategies and plans!
A delightful day of developing practical strategies to move treasured
goals toward effective action plans and time lines.
Translating goals into accomplishments through the use of mind maps and
flow charts. Enjoy extensive time in focus groups that help each
woman work out knotty problems of projects, think through steps to
develop your business, or plan ways to promote.
Energize new ways of being as you enjoy the compassionate support of the
powerful circle of women affirming your new steps with you and helping
you release past patterns and fears of success.
"The second day made the whole experience richer because we'd
developed affinity and safety as a group, and used so many different
ways from serious to silly and playful to make a commitment to our
dreams."
