Swami Mitrananda has been working to fulfill the vision of Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda for over a decade now. Rooted in the timeless message of Vedanta, his teachings are characterised by a modernity and clarity that attract even the disinterested. His discourses on the Bhagavad Geeta, Ram Geeta, Upanishads and other ancient spiritual texts have also changed the course of many lives. The 2004 Zee TV programme Awakening Indians to India was in fact conceived by Swamiji, and till today holds the world record for maximum participation in a televised quiz show (over 280,000 students had entered from all over India ). Swamiji is a highly sought-after speaker at corporate seminars as well and a visiting faculty member at various business management institutes across India. In 2004, 51 young men and women who underwent an innovative ‘value-based leadership and management' course under his supervision renewed their commitment to help shape and serve a ‘new India '; the results of this initiative are already being felt within the organisations where those young men and women work. Vibrant and relevant, Swamiji's voice has a special appeal to the modern world, particularly Asia, where fast-changing lifestyles are facing off with the region's deeply spiritual heritage.

Holistic Electro-Stress Consultant. 11th – 16th September. Rosemary has worked with Anne for many years, however at the end of last year I was feeling the shop was a little out of balance but could not find the course ~ Rosemary arrived and asked where the Environmental Harmoniser's were. I realised we had taken them down when we renovated ~ she replaced them and I physically felt the energy settle! Amazing! In 1999 in her practice as a Light Therapist in the UK, Rosemary began to see evidence to suggest that the effect of electro-stress was undermining the positive efforts she and her clients were making towards creating a healthy lifestyle. Diet, exercise, positive thinking, healing treatments - were being energetically sabotaged by constant exposure to invisible electromagnetic emissions in the environment – electro-smog. So began her work with healing electromagnetic fields to provide protection from electro-pollution, both in the environments in which we live and work, and in the energy bodies themselves, to create strong, harmonised energy fields which can comfortably withstand the environmental electro-pollution from the technologies which surround us in our everyday lives without loss of vitality or threat to long term health. Her company, Phi Harmonics, produces SolarWind Electromagnetic Harmonisers and Personal E-nergy Optimisers, available online and distributors around the world. Rosemary also offers Environmental Therapies to her clients internationally, which she carries out both remotely and on site. UK based Light Healer and Electro-stress specialist Rosemary Innes, offers an assessment of your physical and environmental levels of electro-stress. Each consultation includes a FREE Environmental Harmoniser (worth $560)
