Seminars and Podcasts..

Having just arrived home from a 7 day seminar in North Yorkshire I'm burning the candle at both ends catching up with all of the e-mails and of course the blog!
Seminars are very exciting as we as tutors have an opportunity to really get to know the guests and to be a special part of the bonding that so often takes place between them.
Arrival day is the one where most of the students are finding their feet with where they are in their development, being away from home and sometimes not knowing anyone and its just terrific to see each one surpass even their own expectations in the most unique and unexpected way.
The seminar was hosted by 'The Butterfly Fellowship'which was founded 2 years ago by the Lovely John Conway and friends in memory of one of Spiritualisms very special people, Heather Hatton, late wife of Eric Hatton who is the ex - President of the Spiritualists National Union.
It was a priviledge to be a part of the week and I look forward to working alongside them again next year.
Also a big shout this week to Darren Yates, Aston FM's 'Cheeky Chappy' who is giving his expertise to launch my podcasts soon to be available via my website, in addition to some other exciting developments...we'll keep you posted!

Have a fabulous week and check back soon for more updates....

Spiritually Technical Ponderings........

It never ceases to amaze me how the work of a medium can be so varied and change in so many ways. As a newcomer to Spiritualism 13 years ago I could not have imagined how widely available and accessable mediumship and education would become.
Yesterday we had a loss of power for a while.
The office of light was plunged into total silence without the usually unnoticed constant whir of the computer. No e-mail, no internet, no phone to ring, I felt completely lost in the eerie quiet.
I thought in awe of Doris Stokes who achieved so much without the use of computers, mobile phones,Facebook and with 3 channels on the TV. Doris, like so many other earlier mediums, reached out around the world by more simplistic methods that were just as powerful.
Of course many of the pioneers of Spiritualism achieved great things without telephone or television which is testament to Spirit making their mighty message heard utilizing the channels of communication available to them.
Yesterday gave me the time out to ponder this point.

I am soon to join the world of the podcast which will be available on a regular basis via my website so we will keep you up to date on that and you can find me on Facebook too so please drop by and say hello.
Oh we are so fortunate to have such technical freedom but in revelling in that, may we remember with pride,honour and respect, those who faced far greater challenges in much simpler times and succeeded in bringing the knowledge of Spirit this far regardless.

A Busy Week Ahead..

Hi Everyone,

Having recently started giving 1-2-1's again after a break I re - remembered how much I have enjoyed not only working in that way but how great it is to meet clients and also their loved ones in Spirit.

Summer is always busy for me and this is also my development time so more exciting news is to come through the diary page of my website shortly so be sure to visit!

Having had a lovely week at Coberhill recently with the Lynwood Fellowship I shall be packing my bags and heading back there on 15th August for 7 days with The Butterfly Fellowship. This is my first opportunity to work with the Fellowship with Mediums and Tutors Leah Bond and John Conway. John tells me he is taking his karaoke machine and that I am excpected to be in fine voice and fettle - the poor guy has NO idea what he has started and by the second night I will no doubt be found locked and gagged in the laundry cupboard for the wellbeing of the disposition of all concerned..
Yesterday (Saturday 1st August) I was an invited guest Of Aston FM Big City Radio's Darren Yates for a live chat. Darren is a great personality with a healthy interest in mediumship and the paranormal so in addition to the chat, banter and phone ins we had a very enjoyable afternoon - Thanks Darren!

A busy week ahead awaits with teaching and 1-2-1's and I look forward to meeting some of you during that time, and as always please e-mail me if you have a question or enquiry.

Lets hope for some good old British summer weather too...

love Donna x
