Foundation in Light – Practical Spirituality 2014/2015
Foundation in Light
NEW COURSE BEGINS APRIL 5th 2014
The Foundation in Light is a unique course in the spiritual understanding and working knowledge necessary to nurture and develop a life in healing – whether for yourself and those around you, or to take a healing path into a career as a therapist. This course provides all the building blocks for a Foundation to reach into, and towards, all your potentials. Many students have found the course to be truly life changing
The course is over 12 months and there will be a Certificate of Completion which assists entry on all The Light of Hope CIC College of Light Diploma courses, although it is not necessarily a pre-requisite to those courses. The ‘Foundation’ course is experiential and aims to develop good spiritual ‘housekeeping’ of both a personal and environmental nature, and will be of interest to all, whether or not a career in healing is the ultimate goal.
The ‘Foundation’ course encompasses all aspects of personal energy, meditation and self-healing techniques. It brings an appreciation and understanding of holistic therapies – why and how they work. Students will experience healing – both giving and receiving. Dimensions beyond the physical will be covered – including guides, angels, masters; life beyond the physical and connections to those who have passed to the light.
An understanding of the many levels of life beyond our physical and planetary nature is key to our role on the earth at this time and the course aims to give the individual a very real perspective to their own place in the divine plan.
The course includes attendance at ‘Steps’ teachings which are held monthly (in the evening) at Sale on the last Monday of each month (unless a bank holiday when brought forward a week)
Course Structure
- Each student will be allocated a personal mentor to guide and support their development
- Students, as part of their personal development, will be required to attend a minimum of two evening group meditations per month. They may attend as many meditations as they wish.
- There will be a student card pass ‘Ticket to Light’ which will access all available events to ‘Foundation’ students.
- The ‘Foundation in Light’ course is non-denominational and open to all irrespective of religious, social or academic background.
- Students who do not register for the total ‘Foundation’ course may attend each study day or event separately and individually, and pay accordingly.

STRENGTH IN PASSING – Help with Grief and Loss 26th July 2014
Strength in Passing – 2014
This year the course begins on 26th July at the Hope Centre.
We offer understanding and practical help for those who have experienced bereavement, are terminally ill (in transition) or caring for those in transition
With experience in meditation and holistic healing therapies (including Soul Recall, Crystal Healing, Reflexology, Energy Alignment and Massage) we are able to bring an holistic approach to this area. Our workshops will provide practical self-help techniques to help the bereaved, those in transition and their carers.
The workshops are suitable for anyone who has an interest in life, illness and death (indeed those fundamental aspects of existence that unite us all, yet may be most difficult to address). We have helped many people through the process of transition, supported those who have cared for loved ones through the challenges of serious ill health and assisted many to heal deep patterns of grief and loss
We are all, at some stage, going to pass from this life and most of us have, or will experience, the loss of someone close. Does it make sense to prepare, understand and meet these challenges with strength?
The course comprises 4 workshops all on a Saturday from 10am to 4.30pm. Cost is £35 for each day or £120 for all 4 days paid in advance.
DATES FOR 2014 : 26th July, 23rd August, 27th September, 18th October
To book or for further information please contact John 0161 973 9130 or manchester@lightofhope.co.uk
