The sun is shining where we are, hope it's lovely weather for you too. Here's a few web suggestions and have a wonderful weekend!
Silent Voices Magazine
Lots of articles and interviews on spirituality, the paranormal and metaphysics. You can purchase a physical copy or just browse around the site.
The Farsight Institute
Incredible amount of information about remote viewing. From the history of it to experiments. Fascinating read!
Gabe Berman
I'm a bit concerned I've posted this one before, but I found him again today and thought maybe it needed to be posted. Gabe is the author of "Live Like a Fruit Fly" a wonderful book, full of wisdom you know but sometimes need to be hit over the head with!
Merlins Diary
Describing itself as the leading search engine for Mind Body and Spirit events, it's a great snapshot of whats going on around the country and in your local area.
Have you looked at any of our recommendations? We'd love to hear what you think about them and hear of any sites you love...

In Focus...Reflexology
Reflexology is a complementary therapy that involves applying pressure to the feet, hands, or ears with specific hand techniques.
Areas on the foot correspond to areas of the body. Manipulating these areas can improve health through a persons energy or Qi.
The theory is that blockages in a persons energy field can prevent healing. Using a therapy like Reflexology can help to clear these blockages and promote healing.
It works alongside conventional medicine and as well as promote healing it can improve wellbeing and vitality.
Reflexology practices have been documented in ancient China and Egypt but was introduced in the West by William H Fitzgerald in 1913. Fitzgerald claimed that applying pressure had anesthetic effects on other areas of the body.
His work was modified in the 1930's and 1940's by Eunice D Ingham a nurse and physiotherapist. She mapped the body and developed the system that is used today.
A Reflexology session usually lasts 30 to 60 minutes and the therapist will focus on the soles of your feet - or hands if you are ticklish! Pressure is applied to to your feet to work out which areas of your body aren't functioning well. Your therapist will also ask about your medical history, health issues, lifestyle and diet. All of which play a big part in your bodys energy field.
Specific health issues will need several sessions.
For more information about reflexology, therapist, and training visit britreflex.co.uk or keep an eye out for a practitioner at one of our events!
