A NIGHT OF NATURAL HEALTH

Report on Fundraiser

The October night air was wonderfully warm as club members and guests arrived to the Casa de Cultura to attend our Night of Natural Health program.

The event was very educational as experts in the field of natural healing delighted and enlightened the audience with acupuncture pins, meditative voices, foot charts and hypnotic trances.

The Raffle Draw was the best yet with 22 gifts to distribute to ticket holders. It was nice to see so many happy faces as they jumped up to win there gifts.

The Bake Sale team tempted us with a grand selection of tasty treats - and SOLD OUT all of their delicious delight - adding an extra bonus to our fundraising efforts.

It was nice to see more media showing up and taking photos and little reports. We are always so grateful for any extra attention to our efforts. 

And of course, who can top our Mix and Mingle wrap party in the courtyard over deep glasses of wine after the event? No one. 

We are so lucky to have such a supportive membership, full of good hearts, smart minds and kind words.

JACQUELINE ANN BLAKEWAY -  DHP. MCAP. IIHHT
Jacqueline first trained ten years ago as a Holistic Therapist and holds
diplomas in Indian Style Head Massage, Crystal Therapy and Reflexology. In 1995, she further developed her knowledge of the healing arts and underwent a two-year foundation course with the College of Healing in Malvern, Worcestershire, UK. This led to a further qualification as a Master/Teacher in Magnified Healing.

When in 1997, as a result of deep personal trauma she sought the help of a Hypnotherapist, Jacqueline realised the value and benefit of hypnosis as a potent holistic tool, enabling clients to release unwanted tension, limiting belief patterns and emotional blockages from the past. Following a two-year diploma course with Centre Training School, based in Preston in the UK, Jacqueline qualified as a Hypno/Psychotherapist in 1999. In June 2000, Jacqueline developed a spiritually based 'talks' group called Q.E.D to a 300 strong mailing list, many of whom were personal clients. Now in her therapeutic work, Jacqueline combines both healing psychotherapeutic techniques in her own individual and unique style. She recently moved to Calpe where she hopes to practice and share her gifts. Jacqueline will demonstrate the power of 'Trance', enabling her 'subject' to release a deep-seated phobia.
