Well after three weeks of hiatus which featured moving The Lifehouse, speaking at The Wise Gals event, numerous late nights unpacking, full hours adjusting, finishing the last renovations, adjusting at Salvation Army weekly, oh yah and eating one of the best Turkey dinners I have ever had (thanks so much again Heather :)), I have managed to dust of my typing fingers to write this week’s Beacon article. This was always one of my favourite things to do each week so I look forward to getting back in the routine.
The new space is working out fabulously. We are hearing rave reviews from our clients, who are appreciating the scenic and serene space, convenient parking, accessibility, and functionality of the new space. For me this is turning out to be a really healthy choice. I am also really enjoying just walking upstairs at the end of a long day and eating dinner a few minutes later. I feel so fortunate to be able to do what I love, in the city and country I do it in, for all of you. Thank you.
"Thank you" is a perfect segway into this week’s festivities at The Lifehouse. This weekend is our annual Community Appreciation party. This year it also will act as our Grand re-opening celebration, and well if you know anything about me, I love a worthwhile reason to Celebrate.
So mark your calendars, this Saturday from 1-4 at our new location 1710 Jingle Pot Rd.
We are asking people to be mindful of our neighbours and park in the Serauxman field or at The Buttertubs Marsh parking lot so as not to create a traffic jam at our corner.
1 pm - We will be having a ribbon cutting ceremony, plus live cello music from Ms. Allanah Dow (if you have yet to see her perform, what an opportunity, and if you have already well you know what I know - WOW, with accompaniment from Thommas Michaud with some flamenco guitar, live poetry readings from Mary Ann Moore, plus clowning and games for the kids, games and prizes for the big “kids” oh, and did I mention Healthy Snacks, yes that too!
Most importantly we would love your presence. We would love to show you our new space and all the energy and transformations we've invested in, introduce you to some more of our amazing conscious community and celebrate your healing journey.
3 pm - I will also be offering a talk about the transformation of the new Lifehouse space where I will discuss the various aspects that I learned through the process, including creating the Labyrinth, setting the intention of sacred space, some basic design principles that we used including Feng Shi while making the project ecological, sustainable and affordable .
The event is open to all & will be kid-friendly so we look forward to seeing you all out there with your friends and family, the event is a come and go so feel free to drop by for a quick visit or stay for the afternoon.
Be there or be square,
Dr. Norm
