The Oneness Blessing focuses on the unity of humankind and is unrestricted to any particular religion or belief system. The Oneness Blessing deepens your connection to everything, allowing you to deepen your relationship with those you love, yourself, strangers, and with divine presence. It helps in the healing of the body and in the discharge of repetitive emotional patterns. The Oneness Blessing enables a greater sensitivity and connectedness which frees you from the limitations of your judgments and conditioning. Experience peace, healing, and causeless joy. Karen "Moon Dancer" McGinnis lives in San Angelo, Texas in the heart of the Concho Valley. Karen is a world traveler and seeker and has been a student of Earth-Based Spirituality and the divine feminine since 1993 and a student of metaphysics since the early 1980s. She is a facilitator/educator and a holistic provider of energy modalities. Karen is owner/operator of Healing Touch of San Angelo. She was initiated as a Oneness Blessing giver in 2008 in Fiji.

"A Discussion on Music as a Healing Modality" Sound is all around us, affecting us with its vibrations. When we speak, talk, sing, play, drum, make a sound, and make music we are affecting ourselves, those around us, and the environment. Those vibrations are affected by where we are coming from, and affect every person differently. The session will begin with a listening meditation, then the discussion, and will end with a drum/music circle. Please bring your thoughts, experiences, and musical instruments. There is nothing in my life that is not involved with music somehow. About a year ago I was told by a friend of mine that when I began teaching workshops on music healing she wanted to be there. At the time I had no plans on teaching music healing workshops. Now, because of her, I have started leading these discussions that pull from thoughts of both the people in the group, and famous musicians. I am currently working on my bachelor's in Music Education at Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene, TX as a flute principle and trumpet secondary. I choose music as my career because I wouldn't and couldn't do anything else for any sort of pay or reward.

The importance and magic of songs and stories in our families and community cannot be stressed enough. I will be teaching a variety of songs and chants as well as the meaning of the stories. The stories include tales of coyote , snake, fox and many others.. Most are from the Sioux tradition. We will also learn the fun and creative inventiveness of improving and and re-acting stories. I have been writing and singing music for 20or more years. I am music lover. I have taught this workshop before at other events and festivals. I have a natural gift of story telling. One story I will be sharing is called Grand Daughter Fire Lilly. Which was inspired by my 7yr old son at the time. Who told be one day he would have a daughter named Fire Lilly. Hope to have fun this year with you all on the Mountain. Fox Owl [Alley] Duque, 12660 UHR Apt 714, San Antonio, TX 78217, freefoxowl@yahoo.com
