Have a lovely evening xx

Hope you have all enjoyed a lovely weekend whatever you’ve been doing!  Today I went for an amazing walk in the rain which started my day with passion!  Do you know what simple things you can do or bring to your life to spark your passion and inspiration?  Simple things can be the most enjoyable.

Below I would like to share with you the things that I have planned for the coming April and would love you to join me at any of them if you feel inspired to:

Being Authentic and Living your Purpose – Workshop

Saturday 28th April and Sunday 29th April 2012 – 10-4.30

Come and join Tabitha and I for this fun workshop where you can embrace your authentic self and have fun exploring your purpose.  Learn some self-help tips and exercises, share a day with like minded people and enjoy learning more about yourself.

For more details please follow the link http://www.samanthacross.co.uk/being-authentic-and-living-your-purpose-workshops/ or do contact me on 07870 557641 or email: sam@samanthacross.co.uk if you would like further information or to book your place.

Enjoy Spring with a Gong!

Sound/Gong Experience – Saturday 21^st April 2.30-3.30

Come and experience something different on a Saturday afternoon and enjoy the amazing sound of the gong and other instruments.  Sharing my love of sound with you all and perhaps you gaining some personal healing.  What a lovely way to spend an hour on Saturday!!  These sessions are proving popular so come and see for yourself!

For more details please follow the link http://www.samanthacross.co.uk/sound-workshop/  or do contact me on 07870 557641 or email: sam@samanthacross.co.uk if you would like further information or to book your place.  Places are limited.

With thanks to Andy from the great mag, The BS9, who attended a session and kindly wrote an editorial on his experience – please see below for a taster of that editorial…..

“The gong kicked in ‐ like an approaching storm, shimmering and mesmeric at first then building up into a crescendo, waves of sound and vibration washing over you, then receding only to return again even more powerful ‐ a stunning, awesome sound, a sound you have to feel and absorb and not just hear. Then the calm after the storm as the gentler sounds of voice and bowl return to soothe and relax”.

Meditation Evenings – every Wednesday at 7.30pm

It’s so lovely for me to share my love of meditation with you all and to see the transformations some of you have made within your lives.

David Hamilton writes in his book – It’s the thought that Counts – of research that has been carried out regarding the effects of regular meditation.  It is written that it can produce hormones within us that help not only help with stress –but with ageing!  So gals, if you want to look younger as you get older – learn to meditate!

Regular meditation also helps our ability to focus so you may find that you generally have a clearer mind and stable body.

There will be a slight rise from 11^th April to £7.00 per evening, however I am offering those who wish to dedicate time to their practice, and thus to themselves, block bookings of 6 sessions for £30.00 – these can be paid by cash, cheque or card.

I look forward to sharing these events with those of you who wish to attend, please do contact me if you would like any further information.

Coming soon

Look out for my new mentoring programme and learn to take your life from ok to excellent!  Please contact me if you would like further details.

Warm wishes to you all

It’s so lovely for me to share my love of meditation with you all and to see the transformations some of you have made within your lives.

Meditation is a great way of becoming self-aware and reconnecting to that wonderful source of energy and inspiration that’s already inside.  It can help you understand when something or someone has ‘shaken’ you, and when you feel a little disconnected.  It can help you to understand others and have more compassion for yourself.  It’s also a great way of understanding yourself so you know how to deal with change, or indeed to understand how and what changes you would like to make.  It can help you to really feel alive!

David Hamilton writes in his book – It’s the thought that Counts – of research that has been carried out regarding the effects of regular meditation.  It is written that it can produce hormones within us that help not only help with stress –but with ageing!  So gals, if you want to look younger as you get older – learn to meditate!

Regular meditation also helps our ability to focus so you may find that you generally have a clearer mind and stable body.

Focusing on something pleasurable can have an amazingly positive experience, not only the body, but also the mind.  You can feel the joy emanating through the body leaving you in a state of bliss and sensing or feeling that deep connection.

Dates and Price Update

Please note there is no meditation this week (Weds 4^th April).  Apologies for this but I have been invited back to Monmouth to share some spiritual inspiration and messages with a wonderful group of people.  Evenings will be back again from Wednesday 11^th April at 7.30pm.

There will also be a slight rise from 11^th April to £7.00 per evening, however I am offering those who wish to dedicate time to their practice, and thus to themselves, block bookings of 6 sessions for £30.00 – these can be paid by cash, cheque or card.

Hope you all have a wonderful week and look forward to seeing you on the 11^th April!

Warmest wishes

Embrace your beautiful true self

With love

Sam

2012 is the year of change, are you feeling that there are some things in life that you would like to change? Maybe there is something about the way you live your life that you know isn’t working for you anymore?  Change can be exciting but also a little ungrounding; it can make you feel as though you don’t know yourself or where you would like to be, that’s ok.  How about learning to link with your own spirit and asking yourself for guidance?  Learning to trust the being and the understandings that you already have within you?  Maybe 2012 is the year for you to work with the Power and Understanding of your Spirit, maybe it’s time to awake the spirit within…

One important aspect to remember when you are in a place of discovery is to keep your own counsel, or only talk to those you know have your best interest at heart.  Too much ‘help and guidance’ from others can be a little overwhelming.  Trust those you share with.

If you would like some help in your opening up and finding your inner spirit, please do contact me for perhaps a one to one of sharing or maybe joining one of the events below…each one can assist in you finding your authentic self, and learning to live that life you desire, being in truth and honesty with who you are. Remember, wishes are there to be met, just be sure in what you are wishing for…

Wishing you fun and peace in your journey..

Price Plans and Special Offers

As your journey of self-awareness, healing and awakening can sometimes be a slow process I am happy to announce that I have put together some price plans.  By making a commitment to your journey can sometimes help you to feel at peace and more able to experience the changes you wish.

I am also honouring each therapy that I have trained in and am offering Special Reduced rates off a different therapy each month.  Usually I use a mixture of these therapies in a session which is tailored to suit, however, this might be a good opportunity for you to try something different.  Or just have a session of something you know you enjoy whilst enjoying the luxury of a price reduction.

Plus – Recommend a friend and get £10 off a session for yourself!

Workshops

Inspire Yourself, Inspire your Life

Inspirational Workshop – Helping you connect to your inner guidance and spirit

When you are connected to your inner inspiration and your inner guidance life becomes so much easier and a lot more joyous.  You may find that you try something completely different, you may find that life takes you in a different direction and a whole new understanding arises.  You may find a sense of deep inner peace and an understanding of your true purpose and pathway.  Inspiration can also come from outer experiences – do you know how you get your inspiration and how you can make it work for you?

On this workshop you will learn how to tap into your inner inspiration, find out what inspires you and understand how different and unique you are.  You will learn to celebrate that difference and use your inspiration to help you live your life to the full.  You will learn how to understand how your inner spirit, your inner guidance can help you.  Gently, easily and with fun!

Saturday 24^th March  - 10-4.00

The Chiron Centre, Bristol

Cost £45.00

Celebrate 2012 with a Gong!

Sound/Gong Experience

Do you have a love of sound and want to experience it in a different way?  How about lying back and allowing the wonderful sounds on a 32cm gong, Tibetan Singing Bowls, and the power of the voice wash over you.  You don’t have to do anything but just be open to the possibilities of some healing and experiencing something different.  Each experience is unique to the individual and can be a wonderful way to connect you to spirit, your inner spirit and understanding how unique you are.  Come and experience how powerful sound can be to the body, emotions and spirit.

Last month was fully booked and this month is also almost full – however there are still some places left.  For me it’s a joy to share my love of sound with you all and witnessing the wonderful experiences of those attending.

How many times a day do we embrace things that we love?  Do we even know what it is that helps us to embrace the passion within, so we can do something we love, genuinely!?!  The clothes struck a chord with me as I sometimes wear things that are just ok, but I don’t love them.  How could I forget my love of fabrics, of design and my own sense of creativity and individuality?

Reading this article had a wonderful influence on me and allowed me the space to look at my thoughts on how I embraced my individuality. Having the self awareness to understand how others can influence us is one of the steps to understanding our own thoughts, and how we have the power to change them if they don’t feel right.  If you feel at times that you are being influenced on a negative level, stop and remember that you have a choice.  How empowering would it feel to actually be in command of your own thoughts, your own feelings and how you live your life?  Being aware of yourself and your thought patterns is a great step to being master of your own life.

You are an amazing and unique individual, does it feel like the time to start embracing this?  Does it feel like it’s time to start looking at your thought patterns and how about making 2012 your year?…and not just 2012, but every year…

Ok so it’s not quite Christmas yet, but why wait until Christmas to give yourself a lovely gift?  That’s what I tell myself when I take pleasure in buying myself something special – it doesn’t have to be massive, just a beautiful small bunch of flowers is a delight…

Being kind to yourself is a great way to enhance your self confidence and self esteem.  Celebrate who you are and treat yourself to something small every day.

When you are writing your wish list to Santa (ok, maybe that’s just me then), why not ask for a gift voucher?  Drop that gentle hint to someone  and you could treat yourself to a lovely session of relaxation, a hand massage, a de-stressing session after all the fun of Christmas or perhaps a detox as the start of a New Year, just for you! 

Maybe you’d like to give a loved one, or a friend, a gift voucher, just to show them how much you care and would like to do something for them that they may not do for themselves.  Maybe you know someone who is experiencing some change they may be finding painful?  There are many ways we can help friends and family and offering them help from another source is a lovely way of showing them that they are not alone.

It’s a pleasure to offer gift vouchers for purchase to the value of £10.00, £20.00, £30.00 or the full price of a session – £45.00.  Please do contact me if you would like to purchase one.

Don’t forget;  do something magical this Christmas and bring back the child like essence of joy and wonder to this beautiful time of year.

With love

Sam

Sound/Gong Experience

Saturday 21^st January 2012

Come and spend an hour relaxing and allowing the beautiful tones of the voice, singing bowls and other instruments, plus the amazing feelings/sounds of the gong wash over you!  This is your time to lie back and just be; to possibly benefit from the beautiful healing sounds…

Places are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment!

 To book your place please contact me: 07870 557641, or email –  sam@samanthacross.co.uk 

 Time: 2.30 – 3.30

Location:  The Chiron Centre, 130 Westbury Road, Westbury on Trym, Bristol  BS9 3AL

Cost:  £12.00 payable in advance.

 For your comfort please bring two blankets and a pillow.

I know from my own personal experience there can be many benefits from regularly sitting to meditate, sitting to take time out for yourself and joining together with like minded people.  The energy built when groups sit together can be more powerful then when sitting as individuals, and sitting with people that you regularly see can also enhance your connection.  Therefore I am very pleased that the groups will now run every Wednesday, of course, as before, it’s great to see you whenever you can make it.
