Anna Polivchak Weekend

Friday April 2, 2010 – OMS Meeting

“Exploring Hawaiian Wisdom Through Huna & Tribal Tradition” – Anna Poli

For our April meeting Ann will have just returned from a month long trip to Hawaii. She is coming to OMS to share the wisdom she has gleaned from having been back on the sacred "aina", or land.  Her travels throughout the islands will have taken her to the site of ancient petroglyphs and heiaus, or temples, that she is hoping to use to create a new energy pattern for healing.

You will be given a glimpse into the ancient forces at work through Madame Pele and learn about the role she has played in the Hawaiian belief system for centuries.  Ann will give a brief refresher on the basics of the esoteric belief system known as Huna and its history. She will then delve into the tribal traditions taught by Kahuna Harry Jim and others. Ann will show how these teachings correspond to other beliefs and esoteric teachings as they all help to weave a tapestry of wisdom for living in the here and now.  Also discussed will be the guidance and direction Ann has received from her Native Hawaiian Spirit guide and entertainer extraordinaire!  There will be music and there will be fun!!!!

Saturday April 3, 2010 – Workshop

"Uniting the Trinity With Unihipili & Ho'Oponopono" – Anna Poli

Ann will hold a special 3 hour workshop dedicated to the ancient art of laulima, or laying on of hands.  We will start off with an information session on laulima and an introduction to Hawaiian ho'oponopono, or the practice of "making right".  Ho'oponopono is a way to erase or forgive those things in your life that create negative karma or negative energy.

After the information session, we will take a short break and then form groups to do actual laying on of hands.  This is an opportunity for healing through an exchange of love energy.  Some people experience tremendous insights during the process, while others receive peace and tranquility.  As often is the case, those who are "giving" are often the ones who actually "receive" a blessing of insight or healing.  Once you have experienced participating in laulima, it is highly recommended to share it with as many others as often as possible in an effort to unite us all in peace and love.

The workshop will be held at Unity Chapel of Light in Tallmadge on Saturday from 10:00-1:30pm.
The cost of the workshop is $22
Dress in comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle and a snack for a short break.

There will be a limit of 25 participants for this workshop
Sign up will be available at the Friday, April 2nd OMS meeting and on Saturday morning, space permitting.

Ann Polivchak is a Huna scholar who once lived in Hawaii for 5 years.  During her time spent there, she had many Hawaiian friends, several of whom introduced her to their ancient belief system now known as Huna.  After moving back to the mainland, Ann forgot about Huna until early in 2006 when she felt the need to reconnect to the ancient wisdom.  She has been studying the works of Max Freedom Long ever since and putting the theories into practical use on a daily basis ever since.

She feels that it is a truly profound discovery whose time has come to be mainstream so that any who wish to know themselves and their world better now have Huna to use as a tool to manifest their dreams.

 

Jim Young Weekend

Friday May 7, 2010 – OMS Meeting

 “The Inward Way ; Deeper Meaning Seeks Your Awareness” – Jim Young

Silence is golden, particularly when we use it as an active verb instead of a passive noun.  There are serious limitations we put on stepping out with  spiritual discernment. When we "own" the limitations, we can then cast them aside and truly listen while deeper meaning seeks our awareness.   

Saturday May 8, 2010 – Workshop

 “Turning Yourself Inside Out; From Personal Nightmare into Spiritual Reality” – Jim Young

When we look at outward signs for our identity and purpose, we live largely out of ignorance and/or ego consciousness.  Once discerned, however, enlightenment becomes our daily guide.  Assisted by a profoundly clear and powerful prayer method, insight and wisdom rule the day.

Dr. James H. Young, former university president and chancellor, is an award-winning spiritual writer, poet and a widely collected documentary/fine art photographer. Young is a ministerial graduate of the Pecos Benedictine Monastery’s ecumenical school for spiritual directors who invokes the reframing of spiritual perspective in his life’s work. A cofounder and facilitator of the Arkansas Metaphysical Society and The Aristotle Group, he also serves as the Interim Minister for the Creation Life Church (New Thought) in Hot Springs, AR. The author of over a dozen spiritual books, Jim is an inspirational teacher who takes participants to the threshold of their own Truth, and is available for workshops, seminars, and presentations.
