The presenters volunteer their time to share in the experience. The compensation they receive is the exchange of energy, pleasure in sharing and sparking new ideas and understanding. They come from all over and are individuals who simply feel a strong calling to help in any way they can.

 

There is a core group who attended the May & September 2010 sessions. We are always open and learn from  everyone's talents. If you feel a calling to offer your services, please contact me.


These are a few of the past group facilitators for our events.












Donna Hoyler became interested in energy work as a result of her husband's and her own cancer. After her husband's death (he chose traditional cancer treatments) Donna moved to 29 Palms and became interested in multiple energy work modalities & received Reiki attunements & training. For the past 1.5 years, she has been practicing Reiki professionally and, recently began teaching Reiki I and II courses. She continues her interest in different forms of energy work & is delighted to exchange knowledge with others.

Bruce Manaka author of "Flights of a Runaway Monk" spent 19 years in a monastery, living a life of meditation and completion. In his therapeutic sound work, he combines the ancient vocal techniques of overtone chanting with beautiful tones of crystal & Tibetan singing bowls, drum, and didgeridoo to create dynamic vibrator environments that raises the consciousness of everyone present.

Rick Skalsky a sound, light and color researcher, developer, and healer, bridges the ancient traditions of sound healing with modern technologies to show how frequencies can help the body & mind enter deep states of relaxation, meditation, growth, balance, and health. Rick is also a recording engineer & creates sound therapy tables & powerful CDs for use on tables, custom programmed power affirmation CDs, custom program meditation wands, & other therapeutic sound & color devices.

Linda Bottero, a native Californian, grew into a greater awareness of life after her children were raised and her husband had passed over from cancer. Her desire for an understanding of the deeper meaning of life, the desire for a healthier planet and healthier inhabitants led her into her current path of establishing The GatheringPlace, building the Portal and Naturalives and using energy modalities. Linda now dedicates her life to sharing her passion for life, spirituality and the beauty of what we can create together in unconditional love.
Teddy Tapscott ism a second generation Californian and an only child of only children. She never had children of her own so she shares her love with everyone and everything around her. She has been singing as long as she can remember. After spending a weekend with sound healer Jonathan Goldman she realized the effect the human voice has on everything around us. We use it to communicate, to express our emotions and we can make use of it to heal ourselves and others. She now understands how important what we say and how we say it is both in our self-talk and how we communicate with life.
