17. The End is Nigh

The end of my Anatomy Physiology and Swedish Massage course I mean! (Well, there's six more classes to go). I've drawn up a revision plan for A&P for the next month as the exam is on the 3rd February. Our practical exam for massage is the week before. I can't wait to get my Mondays back again, hurray!

I have now completed all the lessons for my crystal healing course and am also revising for that exam. In the meantime I am attending a short course in Crystal Therapy at the Crossgates Learning Centre on Wednesday evenings as a supplement to my studies. A couple of weeks ago I tried out crystal healing layouts on a friend for the first time and was blown away by the energy both of us could feel. I've been adding to my crystal collection too and now also have moldavite, serpentine, watermelon tourmaline and peridot to name but a few!

I have been offered a place on the Indian Head Massage VTCT Diploma Level 3 course at Thomas Danby which starts on 21st February. This sounds like it will be a bit more laid back than the A&P/Body Massage course as there is no reading list as yet and it looks as if we don't have to wear uniforms. I guess I shall just have to wait and see. Plus, it's a much shorter course, 16 weeks as opposed to 24. Also, its just for 2 and a half hours each Thursday evening rather than all day on Monday, phew.

Back in November I attended a seminar at West Yorkshire Business Link entitled "Is Self-Employment Right for You" which was interesting and a bit alarming but its just an introduction to a series of 6 further in depth seminars on different aspects of starting up and running a business. I am booked on the first of these "Business Planning" in March. Prior to that on the 22nd February I am also attending a women's event at Business Link called "What's Holding you Back?" which looks at business start up and the support available. There's also a buffet, yay!

My reiki at the Robert Ogden centre is going well and I feel that my regular working with the reiki energies has made me more confident about my insights whilst doing a treatment and better able to tune into my intuition.

Over the summer I hope to get started on my colour healing course and then I intend to enrol on the VTCT Reflexology course at Thomas Danby in the autumn.

All exciting stuff if a little scary at times. So much has changed since this time last year, all of it good though. I have much to be proud of : )
