CELLS AND THE SACRED

The Cell as Messenger between Science and Spirit

Come explore what secrets your cells can teach you about enhancing energy, love, community & well-being.   Join scientist-photographer Sondra Barrett in a journey of discovery where the new science merges with ancient sacred wisdom & practical knowledge. Through lecture, art and movement, we will uncover our hidden molecular nature to make cellular intelligence useful for everyday life.

Our cells are always in the NOW.             

The next weekend workshop - April 16-18, 2010

 Noetic Sciences Retreat Center, Petaluma, CA
 

You will be introduced to the cellular laws of attraction that affect growth, maturity, and letting go. Through lecture, discussion, microscopic imagery, movement, art, and experiential practices you can connect more deeply to your divine cellular self. As you experience how your cells communicate and take in information, you will discover that your cells are always in the now.

The revolutionary new concept of cellular anthropology weaves together sacred symbols, the new biology, and social meaning. This program offers an integrative foundation for healing and will benefit anyone seeking to learn where science and spirit meet. It will add to the knowledge of the educated and curious, health professionals, body workers, spiritual teachers, artists, and scientists. You need no background in science to benefit from this workshop.

You will learn:
  • A practical understanding of your divine cellular intelligence
  • To experience your cells are messengers of sacred wisdom, sanctuary for life and principles for living
  • Body-based and energy-enhancing practices that draw on ancient wisdom, cellular intelligence and sacred geometry
  • The scientific framework for energy and vibrational healing
  • Universal laws of design that illustrate connections between gene expression, physical movement, tension and cellular decision-making.
