**KAP × Halotherapy at the Salt Palace** A deeply nourishing experience where **[Kundalini Activation Process® (KAP)](https://www.kapacademy.com/)** meets the gentle, purifying medicine of **halotherapy**. Held within the serene, salt-infused sanctuary of the Salt Palace, this offering invites you into a state of deep regulation, presence, and inner remembrance. The combination of energetic activation and salt therapy creates a uniquely supportive field—one that allows the body to soften, the nervous system to unwind, and the soul to reconnect with its natural rhythm. Past gatherings in this space have been described as grounding, expansive, and profoundly restorative. Many participants leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected—to themselves, their breath, and their inner truth. ***This is not something you “do.”*** ***It is something you allow.*** During the session, you will lie down comfortably while I facilitate the Kundalini Activation Process®. The salt-rich air gently supports respiratory health and cellular cleansing, while the energetic transmission supports the body’s innate intelligence to move, release, and recalibrate in its own way. ### **This experience may support:** * Energetic activation and awakening * Nervous system regulation and emotional release * Deep states of presence, stillness, and self-awareness * Respiratory nourishment and cellular cleansing through halotherapy No prior experience with KAP or energy work is required. Each session unfolds uniquely, guided by your body and nervous system. If you feel a quiet resonance with this offering, trust it. That subtle pull is often the beginning of remembrance. Spaces are intentionally limited to preserve the integrity of the energetic container. ♾️♾️ **Halotherapy with Heart and Healing** Imagine stepping into a serene sanctuary, where the air feels alive with healing energy. Here, your breath deepens, your thoughts quiet, and your spirit feels held. This is the gift of **halotherapy**—a gentle, natural practice that nurtures you from the inside out. Our KAP session takes this powerful experience further by guiding you into *inner awareness* within the unique environment of a salt room. It’s a union of energies you may not have encountered before, as I’ve yet to find another KAP session facilitated in such a nourishing space. The salt room becomes both grounding and expansive—a place where physical healing and spiritual connection intertwine. It’s not just ***[Kundalini Activation Process](https://www.kapacademy.com/)***[®](https://www.kapacademy.com/) ***[(KAP)](https://www.kapacademy.com/)***; it’s ***KAP elevated***, supported by the ancient wisdom of salt therapy. **Halotherapy, a gentle, healing practice held in serene salt rooms, offers countless ways to nourish you from within. Here are 10 powerful benefits of spending time in a salt room and allowing yourself to connect with its cleansing and calming energy:** **1️⃣** Easier Breathing **– Relish the pure, cleansing essence of salt, with its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, working to clear your airways and enhance each breath.** **2️⃣** Boosted Immunity **– Regular sessions subtly strengthen your immune system, fortifying your body and helping it stay resilient and well.** **3️⃣** Radiant Skin **– Whether it’s soothing eczema, calming psoriasis, or aiding acne healing, halotherapy revitalizes your skin, leaving it fresh and glowing.** **4️⃣** Deep Relaxation **– The salt room’s tranquil ambiance melts away stress and hushes the noise of anxious thoughts, wrapping you in soothing calm.** **5️⃣** Lung Support **– Feel the salt work to expel mucus and impurities, rejuvenating your lung health and making every breath a refreshing gift.** **6️⃣** Deeper Sleep **– Leave the salt room recharged yet serene, making restful, replenishing sleep come effortlessly.** **7️⃣** Relief From Allergies **– Notice your nasal passages relax as salt whisks away irritation and offers relief to allergy sufferers.** **8️⃣** Natural Energy **– Open airways, reduced inflammation, and a sense of lightness renew your energy and invigorate your spirit.** **9️⃣** Sinus Health **– Bid farewell to congestion as salt’s natural anti-inflammatory properties work wonders, restoring easy, open breathing.** **🔟** Faster Recovery **– Whether you’re an athlete or simply active, halotherapy nurtures your body with reduced inflammation and better oxygen flow, speeding up recovery.** **Breathe deeply, breathe fully, and feel salt’s quiet, powerful healing touch. 🧘‍♀️ Halotherapy invites you to combine relaxation, wellness, and self-love in a natural, serene way.** **Salt Palace: A Sacred Space of Connection** At **[Salt Palace](https://saltpalace.ca/)**, you’re welcomed into a unique 450 sq. ft. salt room, lovingly crafted from over 10 tons of pure pink Himalayan salt. This exquisite salt, sourced from the ancient Punjab region of Pakistan, has a story as timeless as the earth itself. Formed from a primordial sea over 250 million years ago, the dense salt deposits born from that landlocked sea are infused with the natural pink hue of ancient microorganisms. Himalayan salt, untouched and 100% natural, is rich in over 84 precious minerals, including iodine, magnesium, and potassium—elements that nurture and replenish the body. **[Salt Palace](https://saltpalace.ca/)** is designed to mirror the natural microclimate of mountain salt caves. Thanks to our state-of-the-art halo generator, the healing potential is amplified through a delicate aerosol of dry salt, allowing you to fully absorb its benefits. The microscopic salt particles penetrate deeply into your lungs and skin, delivering therapeutic effects where they are most needed. This gentle, spiritual process aligns with your body’s natural rhythms, creating a space where true transformation can take place. Join us at the **[Salt Palace](https://saltpalace.ca/)** for a transformative KAP experience designed to awaken your energy, deepen your breath, or simply nourish your soul, embrace a journey of profound renewal and gentle healing as the sacred essence of Himalayan salt to bring light, love, and balance into your life. ♾️♾️ **[Kundalini Activation Process® (KAP)](https://www.kapacademy.com/)** is a powerful and life-changing experience that helps you unlock your true potential. Imagine going on a deep adventure within yourself, finding hidden treasures of your personality and abilities that you didn't know existed. With KAP, you learn to light up the energy inside you and connect with the life force present in all living things. This process guides you to break free from old habits and beliefs that have been holding you back, allowing you to live in new and fulfilling ways. KAP is the ***path of surrender***, it's about letting go rather than trying harder, different from practices like kundalini yoga, tantra, or chi gong. Energy moves from the top of your head down to your base, clearing blockages and healing old wounds on its way. In this session, you'll receive a "***double transmission***" - a powerful mix of Kundalini energy and non-dual consciousness. This fusion will enliven your life force energy, revitalizing your body, mind, and energy flow. Simultaneously, your awareness will expand into the realm of non-duality, enriching your perception of the unity of all beings. **HOW IS THE SESSION?** I invite you to find a cozy spot to lie down on a yoga mat, where you can fully sink into this experience. Once you're settled, I'll start playing some specially chosen music that helps your brain relax more deeply. During our time together, I'll focus on your energy centers, also known as chakras, and specific meridian points on your body. My goal is to use gentle touch and light pressure to help clear any energy blocks and support your overall well-being. Rest assured, the pressure will always be soft and comfortable to ensure you feel safe and at ease throughout our session. **WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT DURING A SESSION?** Walking into a KAP session, you leave the outside world behind. What happens next is nothing short of amazing. **Energetic Vibes**: While you're lying down, you might start feeling a powerful energy moving through you. It's like an electric wave that fills you up, making every part of you come alive. **Visual Adventures**: Your inner sight, or "third eye," wakes up, and suddenly, you're seeing vivid images, colors, and maybe even going on visual journeys to places beyond your wildest dreams. **A Rollercoaster of Emotions**: It's normal to feel a whole spectrum of emotions during the session. You might feel anger, sadness, fear, happiness, or even burst into laughter. The magic happens when you allow yourself to fully experience these emotions without holding back. **Unexpected Movements**: You might find your body moving in ways you didn't plan, like stretching, shaking, or even striking a yoga pose. Listen to what your body wants to do without overthinking it. You may feel tension build up and then release, leaving you in a state of deep relaxation. **Blissful Moments**: There's a chance you'll reach a bliss state, where you're completely in the moment, feeling a deep sense of joy and satisfaction. It's tough to put this feeling into words, but it's unforgettable once you've felt it. **DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF KAP** * **Freedom from Emotional Baggage**: Wave goodbye to those heavy emotions that drag you down. * **Broadened Consciousness**: Find yourself thinking and understanding beyond your usual limits. * **Intuition Amplified**: Your gut feelings get louder and clearer. * **Stress and Anxiety Reduction**: Watch your worries and tensions melt away. * **Boosted Confidence**: Feel more sure of yourself and your value. * **Wiser Decisions**: Navigate life with a sharper compass. * **Pure Bliss**: Experience moments of unadulterated joy. * **Stronger Boundaries**: Learn to say no with confidence. * **Shedding Limitations**: Free yourself from thoughts and patterns that hold you back. * **Breaking Old Habits**: Step out of cycles that no longer serve you. * **Increased Resilience**: Find strength to change what doesn't work in your life. * **Deeper Compassion**: Understand and connect with others on a new level. * **Clear Mind**: Enjoy the tranquility of a calm and focused brain. * **Creative and Spiritual Growth**: Explore new ideas and feel more connected to the world. * **Purpose and Direction**: Find your path and walk it with confidence. * **Healthier Relationships**: Connect with others in more meaningful ways. * **Unity and Gratitude**: Feel part of something bigger and appreciate the small things. * **Enhanced Intuitive Skills**: Tap into your inner psychic. * **Empowerment**: Take control of your life and happiness. ***Got questions?*** Connect with me on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/traceyamoura) or shoot an email to [kapbytracey@gmail.com](kapbytracey@gmail.com).

Join us for a focused and engaging discussion on the decline of the British Empire, tracing its gradual unraveling from the aftermath of the First World War to the wave of decolonization that reshaped the global order in the mid-twentieth century. Once described as “the empire on which the sun never sets,” Britain presided over a vast network of territories spanning every continent. Yet within a few decades, economic exhaustion, nationalist movements, global war, and shifting geopolitical power eroded imperial authority. This session explores how and why a global superpower relinquished its empire—and what replaced it. **Topics for Discussion** * The Atlantic Charter and Self-Determination * The Independence of India and Pakistan * The Malayan Emergency * The Suez Crisis * The Windrush Generation * The Mau Mau Uprising * Decolonization in Africa (1950s–1960s) * The Transformation into the Commonwealth * The Falklands War * The Transfer of Hong Kong

Moving this event to tomorrow, February 22 since there isn't enough snow yet. If the conditions don't improve, we'll keep this for a day with better snowfall. Can't let the snowfall go to waste, hence, we are going tobogganing. Let's connect with our 8 year old selves and make this snowy Saturday adventurous and magical! The plan - Slide down the hill and then climb up to slide down again. Skills needed - 1. Ability to scream your lungs out. 2. Ability to fall not-so-gracefully Things you need - 1. A sled, tobogganing mat (Canadian Tire has some under $10), or anything that helps you slide down. 2. Snow pants are recommended 3. Boots with good grip are also a great idea. 4. Something to cover your mouth, again optional but good to have. We’ll take turns racing down the hill, cheer each other on, pause for breath and just enjoy being outside together. After this event, for the magical part (for whoever's interested), we will head towards Trillium Park to see the light displays (another event from our meet up group). On the way we will stop to grab a bite, hot chocolate and coffee.

**\*\*\*TO ATTEND THE EVENT, YOU MUST PURCHASE TICKETS THROUGH OUR WEBSITE\*\*\*** [https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup](https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup) Hosted by Pre-Dating Speed Dating, the experts, bringing people together since 2001! *Our events have been featured on CNN, CBS, Axios, Miami New Times, TLC's 90 Day Fiance - The Single Life, Tampa Bay Times, Southbend Times, Citylink Magazine, Essence, The Wall Street Journal, Best of Baltimore, AM New York, Chicago Tribune, WINK FM, Woman's World Magazine, and 100s more -- but come see for yourself!* Join us for a night of fun, flirtation, and possible romance at our singles speed dating event! If you're tired of swiping left and right on dating apps, speed dating is a great way to meet new people in person, in a relaxed, safe, and comfortable environment. **HOW IT WORKS:** We'll introduce you to at least 5, and up to 12 - or more - single women or men. Spend a little time with each one, during a series of 6-minute Pre-Dates. Then tell us who you'd like to speak with again & we'll do the rest! It's the modern, civilized, effective, and fun way to meet other professional-level singles. If you're finished with the games and ineffectiveness of online dating and apps, join us to share a wonderful evening of enjoyable conversation with interesting people... and maybe something magical will happen! **GET TICKETS:** A Meetup RSVP is not a ticket, you must purchase on our website.

According to the New York Times, at a speed dating event, people like 2-3 out of 10 people they meet. Online daters only match with 1 in 100 or fewer of the profiles they study. This is the best way to meet new people, and it works! Just ask the thousands of people that have met at our events and had successful relationships and marriages. **WHAT DOES IT COST?** We put a lot of time and effort into creating the best singles events possible, so we collect a fee for our hard work. Our events are an excellent value at about $3 per introduction. Get your ticket for the best singles event in town. **NOTE FOR NEWCOMERS:** We post our events on various platforms. Our events often sell out, so expect plenty of fellow singles, regardless of the numbers you see here :) So what are you waiting for? Join us for some fun conversation with great new people... and maybe something more! Who will you meet? **GET TICKETS:** [https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup](https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup) #singles #singlesevents #speeddating #love #relationships
