Heal Yourself, Heal Your World is about emotional healing. In our society there are basically two approaches we take to dealing with emotions. Emotions are either regarded as a physical problem (meaning they are a biochemical problem) to be solved with drugs or they are a mental problem, something to be solved with counseling or attitude changes. In either case, emotions are assigned a "second-rate" position with the body or the brain being more important. However, the heart is composed largely of nerve cells and more and more evidence is emerging that the heart (and the body) have their own intelligence. Steven has come to realize that emotions are the communications of our heart. We need to start listening to them and understanding what they are trying to say to us. In fact, he goes so far as to claim that there are really no negative emotions (that is, no emotion is bad in and of itself), there are only negative ways of dealing with emotions. Steven Horne is a professional clinical herbalist, natural healer and gifted writer and teacher. He is a professional member of the American Herbalists Guild (AHG) and was president of the Guild for four years. He is also a professional member of the International Iridology Practioner's Association and is currently the treasurer and a board member of that organization. Steven has studied herbs for over 30 years. He is the founder of Tree of Light Publishing, a company dedicated to producing educational materials to empower people with the knowledge they need to care for their own health, physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, socially and environmentally.

Charlene Stringfield, Angel Communicator and Spiritual Healer, will be on The Honoring Hour sharing messages from the Angels. She connects with your Guardian Angels and relays messages and information for you on your Life Path. Charlene’s gift in communicating with Spirit will not only involve working with Angels, but also communication with Animal Guides, viewing Past Life experiences and other spiritual aspects that impact your life in the present. At this event, everyone will experience a divine blessing. The cost for this event is only $25.00 per person ($5 off each additional person in a pre-formed group of 2 or more). This is fun to do with a group of friends, so invite them to join you. Because everyone will have their own individual Guardian Angel, Animal Guide and Past Life reading space is limited. visit www.thehonoringhour.com/charlene.php
