Transcendental Meditation (TM)
Yasmin Kowalski
Transcendental Meditation was
introduced to the west by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in 1958 and since
that time over 6 million people have learned the technique all around the
world.
TM is a simple and natural technique that is easy to learn, effortless to practise and does not involve any change in lifestyle or belief system. It is a powerful
tool for stress management- for not only releasing
stress but for responding more calmly in stressful
situations. The relaxation one enjoys during TM is far deeper than that seen with
other meditation or relaxation techniques.

Equine Assisted Coaching -
How Horses Heal People
Sharyna Sharman
Equine Assisted Coaching is a very powerful and effective
tool for bringing about positive transformation and growth. It
is a very personalised and intuitive process and no two sessions are ever the same. People who have suffered
trauma, have a disability or have unresolved emotional issues can gain great benefit and healing; it is also of benefit to children. There is no riding involved and no prior experience with horses is
necessary. This is a relatively new form of therapy and Sharyna’s passion and
dedication for its potential to bring healing to people is
obvious from first meeting her.
about Sharyna …
Sharyna has studied extensively to become a facilitator of this
extraordinary work and, amongst other qualifications, has achieved Equine
Facilitated Learning Levels 1 and 2; is an avid horse lover and has a background in training and working with a large
range of horses, specialising in rehabilitating horses.
“The wisdom and wonderful sense of relaxation horses bring to those in their presence is
unparalleled in its ability to heal and open the heart.” - Sharyna Sharman

Colin Grover
Louise will share her own personal
journey and an abundance of
research linking digestive issues to a
multitude of dis-eases including allergies, asthma, autism, auto-immune
disorders, depression, diabetes, digestive issues. hormonal imbalances, infertility and learning difficulties.
about Louise ... Louise is an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach with a 30 year back ground in Nursing and Midwifery.
She is a longstanding advocate for toxin free, sustainable living
and instinctive, holistic parenting. Having travelled extensively her
passion for wellness also combines with an entrenched fascination of cultural diversity. A turning point for Louise
was in 2006 when three of her friends were diagnosed with cancer. Experiencing health issues within her own family and not finding the answers in modern medicine Louise
then chose to embrace natural philosophies of healing. In 2010 Louise left her nursing career to work as a wellness
coach - to inspire and empower families to make informed decisions and to get back into the driver's seat of their health. . Louise is a highly sought after public speaker
and facilitates a variety of wellness seminars throughout Australia and overseas. She teaches simple, sustainable and
affordable solutions to maintaining and regaining well being.
Colin will talk about his
personal journey to finding a sense of peace and spirit in
his life. In his words:-
“How do I find peace when my business is war? How do I reconcile with any God when
my job is ultimately to kill people? Is it just a matter of perception? Maybe the way
you look at something or someone changes
everything. Some would say that my job is actually saving lives, freeing people from
oppression by attacking the bullies in this world. But then who decides which opinion is right?
Who will ultimately judge who I am and what I have done?
We all strive for answers. I have questioned a lot of things as I have gone through life, both good and bad, continually fighting to find one key thing ..... peace.”
about Colin ...
Colin was born and raised in the UK. After enjoying school, he started life as a soccer player before joining the British Army. Whilst serving Queen and country, he spent 3 years studying the art of positive thinking and
travelling the globe. His last job before leaving the British Army was on an operation in Iraq. He transferred to the Australian Army 8 years ago and has since completed 2 tours of Afghanistan. He has lived in Adelaide with his
family for 6 years. Please forgive him but he now supports the Crows!

Palmistry
Trevor Curnow
about Trevor … Trevor has been working with palmistry, tarot and other metaphysical skills
for over 20 years. He lives and works in the Adelaide Hills, and can
often be found doing readings in the main street of Hahndorf.
Aside from the retina of the eye, there are more
nerve endings on the palms of the hand and
the soles of the feet than other parts of the body, and a huge part
of the brain is dedicated to these
nerves.
Trevor will share with us his considerable knowledge and experience working with this fascinating modality.
“My personal belief is based on the “right brain, left
brain” idea. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body and the right brain controls the left
side. The left side of the brain has most of the “externals” in it (language, logic etc.), while the right side has more of the inner/intuitive parts. Because of this, I read the right hand as the place to look to find
how a person presents themselves to the world, and the left hand shows what’s going on inside.”

Iridology and Natural Health
Sue Lohmeyer
Eyes have long been referred to as the "Windows of the Soul" but few people are
aware of just how true this observation is. Accurate
analysis of iris structure and pigmentation provides insight
into not only the physical health and wellness of a
person but also personality traits and psychological health. It also gives insight into the strength or weakness
of various organs in the body. Through iridology information about a person’s past, present, and potential future health conditions can be obtained by assessing the
various body systems.
Sue will share her journey with Iridology and other natural health treatments.
about Sue …
Sue has a Diploma in Herbal Medicine. She has practiced Herbal
Medicine and Bach Flower Remedies for over 15 years and has been very successful in dealing with a wide range of common illnesses
and unusual conditions.
“The natural use of plants as medicine is as relevant in
today’s society as it has ever been. By treating the cause of health problems there are positive long term outcomes
without unnecessary side effects.” - Sue Lohmeyer

Global Village—
’Salad Greens and Kitchen Herbs’
Judith and Sven Zhele
Local producers, Judith and Sven Zhele, travelled from
Germany to set up their organic farm in the Adelaide Hills, and now people come from all around the world to help and learn from them. Their
farm is staffed by volunteers from places as far away as Italy,
China, France, Germany, Belgium, to name a few.
The volunteers exchange their work for room and board as well as the opportunity to have access to a wealth of
knowledge in growing herbs and greens. Also, importantly, they have the opportunity to live and work
in another culture.
Sven is a supporter of the Mediterranean approach to food—seasonal eating with the focus on fresh produce.
Sven and Judith will
talk about their journey in developing their organic farm and how the benefits flow
on to bring health benefits to all.

‘Raw’ in the Hills ….
with Remedy Bliss
We are really excited to have Remedy Bliss
back with us to give the first
presentation in this new series
of talks; she was here in 2015 and
is back by request!
Want to change your lifestyle? what you eat? the way you prepare food? the food
you buy? simply how you think about food? …. then come along and enjoy this morning with
Remedy!
Remedy studied the practice of raw food and fermented food preparation in Arizona USA in 2007. Remedy came back to
hometown Adelaide excited and ready to share this knowledge with as many people as possible.
For Remedy, food and its preparation must be simple and
accessible. It must stand the test of time, it must cross generations and backgrounds, it must be of value to the planet.
Another motivating factor in becoming vegetarian was that Remedy did not want to be responsible for the cruelty incarcerated animals endured during their short lives.
In this presentation ….
Remedy will tell us about -
What is RAW, why eat MORE RAW?
Morning Routine—how starting the day
makes it easy to follow through
Some Keys to shifting habits; and
What is Activation?
Remedy will demonstrate -
Chia Gel
Activated Almond / Nut Mylk
Bliss Balls / Activated Almond Pesto
Each recipe demonstrated will be taste-
tested; and
You will enjoy a Raw Morning Tea
and take away recipe sheets and
information to get you started on
your RAW FOOD JOURNEY!
‘Raw’ in the Hills with Remedy Bliss is a Hills Connected
Communities activity, supported by the Department for
Communities and Social Inclusion.
