During this multi-day retreat of self-exploration and personal enlightenment you will gain

firsthand experience of accessing the deeper recesses of your mind and consciousness—the very realm in which you can commune with your soul mind and reach into all you have been and ever will be.

Through regressions, progressions, and self-guided imageries during this four-day Edgar Cayce-focused retreat, you will learn:

• The role of soul groups, soul mates, and twin souls• How we work through our soul path for a lifetime known as “Pre-life

Planning”• The evaluation process known as “the Afterlife Review”• Cayce’s perspective on “Interplanetary Sojourns” that occur as our life in-

between lives• The role our angels, guardians, and council play and how to access them• AND your unique place in the grand scheme!

You will also experience a special group hypnotic regression with emphasis on reaching the life-between-lives state and contact with your personal guides.

Plus you will:

• Understand the process of hypnosis, regression, and progression and how it can be used for healing and self-awareness—even if you don’t believe in reincarnation or future lives!

• Explore the possibility of future life contact as Cayce did in his dreams! • Explore the Cayce information on the nature of the soul and the various

levels of consciousness beyond the third dimension. • Travel to the Akashic “Hall of Records” and glimpse the record of your own

soul’s journey. • Tap into past, present, and future lives that are having a major impact upon

your soul development!

Don’t miss this exciting weekend, exploring your own soul self and examining how you can apply spiritual principles in the earth, raising your consciousness in the process!

Peter Woodbury, MSW, psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, and past-life regressionist, will explain the Universal Laws and how they apply to you. Peter will outline our soul’s story up to the present moment and will lead a past-life regression taking you to the life-between-lives state to commune with your personal guides and council. You will come away from this retreat with not only an intellectual understanding of life purpose, but also a personal, direct experience of where you fit into the divine plan! You won’t

want to miss this retreat with this illuminating teacher and instructor of the A.R.E. annual Past Life Regression Certification Program!
