“Bringing to light something previously unknown” - Discover

Hello Lifehouse Community,

Heather-Lynne here with a special invitation for you. "Discover - Safety, relaxation and ease all live inside of you"

Sometimes I take for granted “words” that I know and use all the time.  Take “Discover” as an example.  I understand the basics of uncovering and revealing something new or unnoticed to the surface.  As I sat in preparation for this month’s Advance Talk – “Season of Discover” Thursday night (tonight, 7pm at the Lifehouse) and the experiential workshop on Saturday (22nd, 1-5pm, $50)…. It was my intention to expand my awareness and be curious.  So I ran a search on dictionary.com to explore other meanings/interpretations of “Discover”. 



dis·cov·er
 [dih-skuhv-er] Show IPA
verb (used with object)
1. to see, get knowledge of, learn of, find, or find out; gain sight or knowledge of (something previously unseen or unknown): to discover America; to discover electricity. Synonyms: detect, espy, descry, discern, ascertain,unearth, ferret out, notice.
2. to notice or realize: I discovered I didn't have my credit card with me when I went to pay my bill.
3. Archaic. to make known; reveal; disclose.

Discover, invent, originate suggest bringing to light something previously unknown. To discover may be to find something that had previously existed but had hither tobeen unknown: to discover a new electricity; it may also refer to devising a new use for something already known: to discover how to make synthetic rubber. To invent is to make or create something new, especially something ingeniously devised to perform mechanical operations: to invent a device for detecting radioactivity. To originate is to begin something new,especially new ideas, methods, etc.: to originate a political movement, the use of assembly-line techniques. See also learn




And there it was - “Bringing to light something previously unknown” the link, the light bulb moment if you will… and the connection on another level to chiropractic.  With each entrainment, Dr. Norm is helping you re-connect to your own inner light and in essence “bringing light to something previously unknown (your authentic gifts,potential and expression of more life-force).”

Dr. Donny Epstein, the creator and developer of Network Spinal Analysis and the Somato Respiratory Integration modality maps out the whole healing journey in his book “The 12 Stages of Healing” building around the framework of the seasons in care– Discover, Transform, Awaken and Integrate.  Discover is the starting point, a foundational element in our healing journey within.  Not always comfortable or easy to ‘be’ with BUT so worthwhile to take the time to tune into and listen to our inner wisdom.

Discover is about one’s connection to energy, breath, movement, touch,emotion and rhythm.  Discover is about being able to encounter the container of the body through safety, understanding and amazement for the possible changes in experience possible in the next moment.  Discover defines one’s movement and limits as well as one’s anchors to tension/stress and to peace/ease.


Encouraging you to invest an evening, tonight, to tune into your inner wisdom in a cooperative, inspiring, lively community setting to build your tools and resources and get the most out of care and your life!

Call to reserve your space 250-740-0333.


Enjoy a beautiful day!
Be well

Heather-Lynne D.


** Please note ** The seasons build on one another - the talk and workshop are prerequisites for next month's "Season of Transform" talk (Wed. April 16th) and workshop (Sat. April 19th).

Season of Discover – March 12, 2014


Ever stop and think, “Gee whiz there must be more to life than this.” 
“I would like to find out why these things keep happening to me.” 
“I wonder what my body is actually trying to tell me.”  
“Will it ever get easier?”

Many people don’t. They live life unconsciously drifting from one day to the next and never develop a deeper understanding or awareness for what is going on and how to participate with life, their community, their purpose more meaningfully.  For these people it is rare that they will ever really move forward.

  By learning to use your perceptions (the way we use our mind, the thoughts we think), our behaviours (the things we do) and the structure of our bodies (posture) and of our lives (schedule, appointments) in a conscious way you can discover deeper meaning, more energy to support your growth and healing to levels far beyond the old.

By learning to change the questions you ask, for instance changing a repetitive question like “Why Me?” which is rarely empowering to “How can I find more safety to experience what is really going on?” will take you incompletely different direction.

 By learning to consciously change your behaviors (like skipping, laughing, or moving even when you don’t feel like it) And by working with the structure of your body and life (like sitting up straight, opening your chest and your heart or making lists) You can discover your own personal recipe of how you do you,and how you do life and how to do it more effectively.




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


This month we have two special events at the Lifehouse,
on Thursday March 20th from 7 – 8:30 pm
I will be hosting a free talk on the Season of Discover,
in it I will be outlining the consciousness of this season,
will be offering upgrades to questions to assist you in
deeper insight, and as usual it will be filled with personal antidotes,
stories, and other tidbits of wisdom. 

Then on Saturday March 22nd from 1 – 5pm,
please join us for an in depth look at The Season of Discover workshop
as we dive into the Somato Respiratory Integration Breathing Exercises
for the first 4 stages of healing. 
We will be expanding our own understanding of these stages
through my process “The Essence”.
I have plenty more on store for that day, it promises to be an amazing afternoon. 
Investment for this is $50. 
(Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat)

Discover The Force Within


"We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves." ~ Galileo Galilei
When you stop trying to “get rid of” your symptoms and learn to connect to what your body really needs and learn to listen to what your body is telling you, you’ll begin to heal on a deeper level.  When you get in touch with your body, you will grow beyond short-term relief and create the foundation for long-term well being.
As Obi-Wan informed the young Skywalker in the famous Star Wars movie “Use the Force, Luke.”  I will remind you to use the Force.
Have a great week.
Dr. Norm and The Lifehouse Team
