Nizhoni Summer Camp
for Adults, 18 and over
Presented by Chris Griscom's Nizhoni School for Global Consciousness

June 22 - 30, 2007
On this 9-day excursion in magical New Mexico, you will go within, exploring and developing tools to radiate inner peace in your life and in your relationship to the world. During this special time, you will camp on the Nizhoni land and home of the Light Institute, located outside of the ancestral village of Galisteo.

The week will begin with one-on-one multi-incarnational sessions with a Light Institute facilitator. This is your opportunity to explore any themes and imprints you are ready to clear now. In addition, you will access and activate higher frequencies, such as peace, ecstasy and abundance so that you can radiate them in your life now.

Workshops and classes will cover such themes as the Higher Self, the Inner Child, Fear, Life Purpose and Inter-Species Communication. Other activities include morning meditations, Movement clase, Yoga, nature walks, a cranial with a Light Institute Cranial Therapist and a firewalk. At the week's end, we will travel to beautiful White Sands National Monument and camp in a private group area there. We will also visit the wondrous Carlsbad Caverns.

Nizhoni Summer Camp will be led by Navjit Kandola, professor and Director of the Nizhoni School for Global Consciousness and Amy Adams, Light Institute Facilitator and Nizhoni School graduate.

BOOK REVIEW
Walking Your Blues Away: How to Heal the Mind and Create Emotional Well-Being Thom Hartmann

Park Street Press, Rochester, VT, 2006. $12.95

Can it really be this simple? Just walk for thirty minutes and your traumas, fears, embarrassments, concerns, and creative blocks will just melt away? Thom Hartmann emphatically answers "Yes!" After all, how did our ancient ancestors cope with witnessing a wild beast devouring their friend? They walked back to the village with the images racing through their minds then danced and drummed (also bilateral therapies) to say farewell to their friend and to process their emotions. Only in our modern walk-less society have we had to resort to professional office visits to help us cope with our emotional experiences. Using walking as a "whole-brain psychological healing process", Hartmann roots his technique in the successful work of Mesmer, the father of hypnosis, and Freud while pointing out that his technique shares a basis with modern popular and successful therapies such as EMDR and Emotional Freedom Technique. Explaining the basics of how the brain receives, processes and permanently stores our experiences, Hartmann emphasizes that the Walking Your Blues Away technique does not mask your pain in forgetfulness, but rather processes what your brain failed to complete through other natural means such as REM sleep. Described by one client, a mental health worker, as "the herb tea of therapy: easily administered, and of immense value. I would choose this over traditional therapy in a second." Using Hartmann's incredibly simple technique, you will be amazed by how much your life can change by simply going for a walk.
