 Welcome Letter

Dear  ,  

Greetings from the Healing Touch Program 2014 Conf Logo office! We have a few new updates to share with you this month on what is happening in the Healing Touch world! We are gearing up for our 2014 Worldwide conference that is being held on August 14-17, 2014 at the Hyatt Regency Schaumburg, Chicago, IL. This year at conference we are bringing many new products to support practitioners and students. If you are not attending conference this year, you can look for announcements of these new products as they are released after conference through the HT Community News and in our on-line HT Store.


 
We are thrilled at the response to our on-line survey to vote for the conference tote bag design. The design process often leaves us with many choices in wording and graphics and it was especially fun to have our community co-create with us in deciding this year's design. We had 211 participate in the vote and for those of you that did vote - design # 2 and 3 were very close and the words "Healing from the Heart" was clearly the top choice.  If you are at conference this year you will be gifted a Healing Touch tote bag. If you are not at conference, you will be able to order a bag in the HT Store after August 17th.


 
Also in preparation for conference this year, Cynthia Hutchison and myself are preparing for our keynote "HTP's Legacy, Accomplishments and Vision for the Future", I had the pleasure of pulling many pictures of Janet and the beginnings of Healing Touch. Here are a few of the treasured photos that I found. 


 


 

Lisa G I look forward to seeing many of you in Chicago next month.


 

In gratitude,

Lisa Signature

WE HAVE A WINNER!

 

Totebag Design - 2014 Healing Touch Worldwide Conference  

With your help we have chosen the design for the conference totebag! 

Note - the printed color is different from what is shown here. 


 

The totebag not only is handy at conference, holding folders, handouts and other papers, but is used throughout the year in a variety of practical ways. Some practitioners use it to transport items to the office, others take it to their yoga class, others use it as a grocery bag. The Healing Touch totebags are useful, get around and help spread the word. These will be available in 5 different colors at conference. Can't make it to conference? That's ok! We will have the Totebag's available in our store after conference.

   

Conf 2012 If you have not yet registered for the conference be sure to do so soon.  Also get your hotel reservations... they sell out every year! Hotel Information and online reservations here.

 Our block has been extended to Thursday, July 31st! 

 

 Check out the 2014 Conference web site for more details and start making your plans to join together to Journey Within.  

On-line registration can be completed at:  www.healingtouchprogram.com/conference/2014  until Friday, July 25th.

 

 

We are excited to see you in August 

for a time of sharing with our community.

September HTPA Practitioner and Business Support "Live" Interview
Tuesday September 9, 2014 9pm Eastern

SimpleEnergy Tools for Professionals, Practitioners and Students
with Loree Oberle-Edwards, DD, HTCP/I, CMICP/L

As soon as you see Loree's e-mail address you have your first clue as to what she emphasizes and practices - it is @empowerpeople.com. That sounds valuable doesn't it? Well that's just the beginning of the valuable information she has to share.

 

Loree asks, "do you ever find yourself experiencing any of these feelings?"

  • Stressed
  • Anxious
  • Exhausted
  • Overwhelmed

If you're like virtually everyone else in this world, then you can answer yes to these questions at least once in a while. Loree has the tools to easily address this: she says "you can find out how to quickly feel relaxed, refreshed and revitalized without long processes, practices or prescriptions!" Just attend the "Live" Interview with Loree to learn simple, yet effective techniques that will make a big difference for you.  

 

What makes Loree's approach to these energy tools unique is that she operates from the fundamental understanding that everything is energy - thoughts, words, our physical bodies, rocks, planets and stars etc.  What makes the difference is "the density and frequency of the energy of which it is composed."  She presents her concepts in a playful and simple easy to grasp way so that you can quickly benefit from these powerful perspectives and tools.

 

During our interview with Loree, you will learn how using these concepts about energy can help you address the spiritual, mental, emotional and physical issues in your personal life and professional practice. In other words, Loree will help you gain a deeper understanding of how your vital energies work (or sometimes don't work) for you and how you can be more clear and effective in managing your energy each day.

 

In our training as energy practitioners, most of us received a fair amount of insight into the idea that we have an energy field that exists in and around us.  We know that our energies interact with other fields. Yet Loree goes further to add and describe our abilities and responsibilities - she will share tools of how to set and maintain your energetic boundaries, how to clear unwanted energies, to choose and manage your vibrational state and more.

 

Do join us for an interview that is sure to be interesting, beneficial and as Loree says "simple and fun" 


Register now - We look forward to having you join us!

Healing Touch Book Series
Facebook Heart

FACEBOOK LIKES needed to get Healing Touch young adult fantasy book published!

 

Your "LIKE" on facebook can help one of our instructors Linnie Thomas, HTCI, author of The Encyclopedia of Energy Medicine, get her next book series on Healing Touch published.

 

Linnie explains her motivation to write this book series: "I recently attended a performance where my granddaughter played Mrs. Beaver in "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", a favorite children's tale of mine. That is until I watched a lovely young girl thrust a (pretend) sword into another person. I had not noticed how much violence occurs in that story. Now that I have become aware, I am finding most of my favorite young adult stories contain a lot of violence"

 

Linnie's new book series is about a girl who discovers she must lead her people against an invasion. However the rules where she lives state, no matter what the invaders do, she cannot use violence as a deterrent against the invaders.

 

The character uses real Healing Touch techniques at appropriate times with realistic results. The heroine does not expect or create Hollywood miracles with the HTP techniques. Instead she uses them to help with pain relief, the removal of energetic chemical residues (poisons) and stress management. At the back of the book is a reference to the HTP web site so readers can learn more about Healing Touch and a table of the chakras similar to the one in the Healing Touch Level 1 notebook. The book is the first of a nine book series. Books 2 through 8 cover each of the chakras. For example, book two is a story about both physical and emotional issues associated with the root chakra.

 

Linnie's book agent doesn't believe a young adult fantasy featuring non-violence and energy healing will be of interest to publishers. However, the book agent has agreed to present it to publishers if Linnie can gather at least 30,000 likes which proves interest in the market.

 

Here is how you can help make this book series on Healing Touch manifest! Please go to facebook.com/the.wasaru.stones and like the page. Ask your friends to like the page. Together we can prove non-violence is of interest to the public. Thank you for doing your part to be a part of this movement to get Healing Touch and energy theory introduced to our young readers.

 

Healing Touch Association of Canada 2015 Conference
HTAC CONFERENCE 2015 - NANAIMO, BC
Healing Touch Association of Canada 
April 23-26, 2015
"Healing Together"

Great speakers, fun reunions of Healing Touch friends and a wonderful waterfront atmosphere.

Nanaimo is officially known as Harbour City for good reason. Stretched like a long, lean finger along the east coast of south-central Vancouver Island, British Columbia's sixth-largest city gets its identity, history and a wealth of recreation from a lovely, island-sheltered harbour right in the heart of town. Hiking, boating, kayaking, biking and world-class scuba diving and snorkeling are everyday activities at the bustling waterfront, as seaplanes take flight from sparkling blue waters.

Today, Nanaimo (population 84,228) is a fast-growing urban centre that is no longer merely the premier gateway to Vancouver Island. A boldly revitalized downtown core, delightful harbour front walkway, sparkling new museum, affordable art galleries, and a wealth of cool shopping and dining alternatives are good reasons to park the car, find accommodations and stay awhile.


Contact: Carol Keane, Conference Chairperson, [email protected] Details will soon be on the website for HTAC: www.htac-jm.org
