Jocelyn Johnson, Heal Yourself
As a Vibrational Medicine Practitioner, Jocelyn has been directed to work with many healing modalities including sound healing. A powerful tool for transformation and healing sound promotes energy harmony and balance, creating a healthy energy environment around us and directly changes our systems.
 
By working with sound tools, we can hone in on our perception and interpretation of subtle energies and heighten our level of consciousness.Work with sound to open and unify your lower and higher energy fields. You will be introduced to the healing frequencies of the ancient Solfeggio scale. These sacred tones serve as a “vibrational bridge” to holistically re-integrate the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of all Humanity.  
 
Judy Becker
Judy has been deeply inspired and influenced by her yoga practice which combines an awareness of the chakras, a vigorous sequence of flowing poses along with uplifting music. There is always a focus on finding the connection between the mind, body and spirit.
Judy has had the opportunity to study with some of the most celebrated yoga instructors in the country. Seane Corn, Rodney Yee, Sharon Gannon, Shiva Rea, Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa and Rod Stryker Judy has also had the privilege of training with Anodea Judith, one of the foremost experts on the chakras.
The yoga practice is a holistic journey which connects the mind, body and spirit. By linking movements with breath in a moving meditation, we have an opportunity to release physical and emotional blocks, create space, ground our energy, gain insights, and open our hearts to love and light. The more we create awareness, flexibility, balance, strength, connection and intuition in our yoga practice, the greater the chance of bringing these elements into our lives off the mat too.

Janice Culley, founder of Pathways Education & Training Centers, Inc.,
Janice was inspired to write and develop programs that transform lives after she underwent a life-changing experience when she was in her early thirties.

As Janice let go of her external resources and the need to find answers there, she received a very clear message that her situation was part of a huge, world-wide problem. "The world is awry," she was told. It seemed incomprehensible to her that the whole world was out of order, but she couldn't deny the reality of the communication she had received. Shortly after receiving that information, Janice began a quest to find happiness and peace. She began integrating spiritual practices into her life that eventually brought her to a space of pure joy and incredible power. She calls the process that led her to that event "accessing quantum energy." In this space, all the information, resources and gifts one needs at any moment are instantly available. She knew that she would share her journey with the world and teach others how to access quantum energy.

Janice spent the next 14 years gathering tools that would enable her to pass on her experience. She certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Educational Kinesiology, Reiki, Reconnective Healing, and she took classes in meditation and various healing modalities. She wrote and taught curriculum for off-track youth for a school district, worked in private schools, and implemented her programs in youth treatment facilities. She also spoke at women's conferences and on television and radio.

As she taught her students how to align with universal laws, she incorporated exercises and processes that integrate the hemispheres of the brain and connect the mind and heart. Her programs were initially designed to help so-called "learning disabled" children achieve success, and have since expanded to raise consciousness and promote healing in people of all ages, skill levels, and walks of life.

Very spiritually connected to all that is, she moves people to raising people to their higher consciousness through ceremony, heart felt connection and more.
