The healings occur through light, off-body touch, while the
recipient sits on a chair or bench at the back of the room and the teachings by
Barbara continue uninterrupted. The recipient simply listens while receiving
treatment, which can take 5 to 10 minutes. Most, if not all, students remark
how helpful these treatments are, whether they received one or not. Everyone in
the room as a result is able to be in touch with the teachings and with fellow
students. The purpose of the workshop is for all to benefit; it is an
experience of making and sharing community. Often the student who is struggling
may become the best teacher, by embodying how deeply we all struggle to accept
our birthright--multi-dimensional consciousness.
The morning session
concludes with
another form of learning how to be more present. Barbara teaches students to
balance the six-polarities, using a diagram of a wheel with twelve slices or
"houses". The polarities are: self/other, ground/purify, link/spirit,
feel/power, create/give away, be here now/bliss out. She explains how each
polarity works, has each student check to see if he or she is off in any one or
more of the polarities, and then gives us a technique for correcting the
imbalance.
The afternoon
session is
pure ceremony while experiencing and enjoying two hours of the nine dimensions.
Barbara lays out an altar in the center of the room while participants are
invited to sit and lie down, wherever feels comfortable. Gerry is in charge of
the music, which is nine movie-quality sound tracks composed by Michael Stearns
for each of the dimensions. Healers remain present to assist, yet most
attendees are ready to integrate the experience about to unfold as a result of
the morning session. Barbara says prayers to the four directions, and to the
sky and earth, following her Cherokee and Maya teaching traditions. At this
point, the whole feeling of the room changes, because the Pleiadians come in
and they conduct the journey into the center of Earth. Each journey is unique
to that workshop, group, place, and time. The music begins as she brings the
group into resonance with the iron-core crystal in the first dimension. Then
the group experiences each of the dimensions; some lie down, others move and
dance, while Barbara does a pipe ceremony and works with the spirits in the
room. The room is enveloped in the sounds of the dimensions, and the scent of
sweet grass and sage. Each student is on his or her own journey, which each
will be able to describe when the journey is done.

The final episode of the
workshop,
(following the ceremony on the same day, or on the morning of the third day) is
often the best because the students become the teachers. Sitting together in
full circle, each student shares his/her experience of the day before. One by
one, they tell who they are, why they came, and what happened. Gerry and
Barbara monitor the process, responding when and where necessary, and making
sure each person has time to speak in the time allotted. Previously strangers
to each other, suddenly the group becomes bonded, intimate, a family. Students
discover someone else from the same hometown or the same profession; someone
sitting directly across the circle may mirrors the experience of another in a
way that could not be seen until the other spoke. Those who sit instinctively
on each of the four cardinal directions take on additional roles as teachers as
they reflect the energy of those directions. What is said is real, personal,
powerful, moving, often hilarious as well, and the words resound long after the
circle is completed. |

Barbara and Gerry have been
teaching this workshop together since 1996, following the publication of
The Pleiadian
Agenda in the fall of 1995. They have taught over 100 workshops
throughout the US, Canada, and in Bali, Greece, Egypt, and England, and their
students have begun teaching this workshop themselves, or using it in their
healing practices. Barbara and Gerry plan to continue teaching these
ever-evolving experiences until December 21, 2012. They teach each year at
Omega, Kripalu, and Lily Dale Assembly, and they are on the faculty of
Fellowships of the Spirit, a spiritualist ministry program, at Lily Dale, NY.

In
summary, why would you, or anyone, come to such a workshop?
- to receive Pleiadian teachings in a intimate, useful,
personally satisfying manner
- to see a Pleiadian teacher embody the Pleiadians
- to better understand the role hands-on healing has in our
attainment of higher consciousness
- to truly understand the nine dimensions described in The
Pleiadian Agenda,
by fuller explanations and by personal
experience
- to be able to take the nine-dimensional model into our everyday
lives,
for fuller, richer daily life
- to identify a dimension that may have been calling to us,
but
we were unable to know what it was
- to assist other teachers in using this material in their own
classes,
and for healers to use the nine dimensions in their healing
practices
- and to be more powerful, present, conscious in our everyday
lives.
The following is a sample
of what students say after the experience is over.
"I used to be in those other dimensions, but not in my body.
Now, I'm anchoring an aspect of myself in 3D. . . This is the first time I'm
happy being in my body."
"Barbara is always pushing the boundaries, no matter how much I
grow."
"I appreciate the painstaking care Barbara takes in explaining
her work to us."
"I enjoyed the play and the homework; the odd dimensions
allowed me to play, and the evens were my homework."
"A circle of beings who are embracing the future....next time I
imagine we'll be able to respond in our own ways, through movement and
song."
"Thank you for the safety. . . I was effortlessly in my body.
The trees want to hear the music, to be reconnected as well."
"I'm no longer a galactic virgin."
"Revolutionary--what a way to re-member!"
"When I'm with Barbara, I'm not in reaction to something, or
someone."
"I was amazed to feel my body shift, become present, during a
healing with Gerry."
"A new muscle memory, a new singing voice. New tools for
accessing the multidimensional person. . . How to work with the blocks on the
fifth dimension within my community."
"This is the time, not 2012. Let's share this w/others outside
this circle."
"Great to see the information, not just read about
it."
"Barbara, thanks for taking me out of my body, and Gerry,
thanks for keeping me here." |
