The Four Directional Model of Energy Management with Heather Bakner
2023-12-05 19:00 - 21:00 | Rogue Valley Metaphysical Library, 1757 Ashland St., Ashland, 97520
The Four Directional Model of Energy Management was originally called The Four Directional Model of Maintaining Energetic Health; I also call it “The Energy of Being.” It was created as a response to my acupuncture practice.
I wanted to give my clients a simple system that they could use to clear themselves energetically and uphold and maintain the work I was facilitating with them. Also, I myself was in a deep healing process and was asking for a direct transmission of the information I needed in order to heal myself.
The Four Directional Model is what arose out of this inquiry. By asking the question and then listening and witnessing through the community I lived in, conversations I had, and experiences I was in, I received the information that I asked for.
The Four Directional Model is a holistic, or holonomic model—that is, a model that in its small scope also encompasses the whole. I ask people to receive this model, and to incorporate the parts that resonate with them into their lives and practices. I believe it has the ability to increase health, harmony and happiness within and without, both for the individual and in relationships.
I will also talk about acupuncture and the meridians and how it can contribute to improving health in the mind, body and spirit.
