Franklin Method and Myofascial Training
Be-weekly lessons with experienced practitioner Ingrid Wenger.
We want to consciously experience movement together and give our bodies the attention they need. Everyone participates according to their abilities – together, yet each at their own pace.
We work with balls, bands, music, but above all with our imagination and lots of fun. The training is based on the Franklin Method and Karin Gurtner's Slings Myofascial Training. The goal is to increase your physical well-being and open up a new connection to your body. It's wonderful to discover that you already possess many tools within yourself to enhance your quality of life. Simple and without much effort.

EQUINOX PORTAL - Kundalini Activation & Ritual
🌸 **EQUINOX PORTAL – Group Event** 🌸
**Kundalini Activation & Connection with Goddess Freya**
📍 Zürich \| 🕯 20th March \| 7:00 PM – 9:30 PM
The Spring Equinox marks a moment of perfect balance — when day and night stand equal, and the cycle of rebirth begins.
Since ancient times, this portal of equilibrium has been honored by initiates, mystics, and guardians of the Earth as a sacred threshold between worlds. The Equinox is not just a date. It is a living alignment, where light and darkness meet in harmony, inviting us to reset, recalibrate, and begin again.
**Why celebrate the Spring Equinox?**
By aligning with this powerful moment:
* We activate the Heart Center, restoring balance
* We plant new intentions aligned with growth and truth
* We attune to the forces of rebirth, awakening dormant potentials within us
*The seed breaks the shell.*
*Life rises again.*
*A conscious crossing into a new cycle of becoming.*
**What to expect from the Group Activation Session**
The event lasts approximately **2.5 hours** and unfolds in three phases:
1. **Introduction & Ritual Preparation**
Mystical and ritual elements, gentle exercises, and intention-setting to open the space and attune to the Equinox Portal.
2. **Kundalini Activation**
A guided energy transmission where the energy carries its own intelligence, working beyond the constructs of the ego and supporting alignment with your true self.
3. **Integration**
Time dedicated to grounding, integration, and embodiment, allowing the experience to gently settle into your daily life.
**What is Kundalini Activation?**
Kundalini Activation supports the natural realignment and clearing of the body’s energy centers, as well as the activation of new energy channels, allowing blocked energy to flow more freely.
Through a guided energy transmission, the body is invited to let go, reset, and reconnect with its natural flow.
**Possible benefits may include:**
* Emotional release and inner clarity
* Nervous system regulation
* Increased vitality and creativity
* Deeper connection with intuition and body awareness
* Release of energetic, emotional, and subconscious blocks
* Activation of intuitive or psychic gifts such as channeling, light language, and accelerated self-realization
Every experience is unique.
The energy works with what you are ready to receive.

Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM.
It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
Pranic Healing Level I - PH I--- DAY 2 of 2
MCKS PRANIC HEALING® Level I
In PRANIC HEALING® Level 1, you learn the basics of working with your energy aura, including learning to "scan," or feel the energy, to "sweep," or clean away congested energy, and to "energize," or supplement areas in your aura that have a pranic deficiency.
PRANIC HEALING® has been taught to doctors, nurses, massage
therapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, shiatsu practitioners, and many others in the healing field. It has allowed them to heal confidently and consistently in the shortest learning time possible. These professionals find PRANIC HEALING® very effective and easy to apply.
Other topics covered in PRANIC HEALING® Level 1:
Energetic anatomy: You will learn to work with the network of chakras, meridians and auras to accelerate the healing processes of your body.
Preventive healing: You will learn to remove the negative energetic patterns of a disease to prevent it from fully manifesting as a physical ailment.
Self-Pranic healing: You will learn to apply these healing techniques to accelerate your own healing.
Step-by-step techniques for ailments related to your:
respiratory system, e.g., asthma,; circulatory system, e.g., heart ailments; gastrointestinal system, e.g., irritable bowel syndrome; musculoskeletal system, e.g., arthritis and back pain; reproductive system, e.g., menstrual problems. You'll also learn how to address common problems as migraines and sinusitis.
Additionally, you'll learn to apply distant healing to loved ones who are not present in the room with you.
All PRANIC HEALING® courses are "experiential," which means that you learn by actually performing the techniques and exercises in class - on yourself and those around you. During class, all the principles will be explained thoroughly and you will practice the techniques exhaustively so you will be confident in your ability to produce positive results when you finish the course.
This is Day 2 of 2 Attendance at day one is required to attend day 2.
The Course text book is Choa Kok Sui, "Miracles through Pranic Healing" Please bring this with you to class.
