Past Life Group Regression with Gina Nissinoff, Oct. 14th at Florey's!



Florey's Book Co. invites you to past life group regression, with group leader Gina Nissinoff.

***Wednesday, October 14th, 7-8pm***

--Please note that Ms. Nissinoff requests a fee of $20 for this session.--

About the event:

From Gina-

Why would someone be interested in a Past Life Regression? Often people
who have questions such as "Why is there this intense connection between
this person and myself? I feel like I've know them all my life but we just
met". Or people experiences deja vu when visiting another country,
experiencing the sensation that they have been there before. Another
example that we are hearing a lot about is "I was born in the wrong body".
A past life regression can give a deeper insight on some of the questions,
concerns, relationship dynamics and give deeper understanding on how these
pertain to your journey now.

How it works is you are taken into a light trance state using a guided
visualization. Then in trance you will be guided to the life that is most
relevant to this life where you can explore all facets of that life.
Most people have some profound experiences, so if you are interested please
join us.

'Singing with the Sirens' Book Discussion Series with Author Ellyn Bell, begins October 11th!



Florey's Book Co. invites you to a multi-week discussion group based on 'Singing with the Sirens', with author Ellyn Bell.

***Sunday, October 11th, 2-4pm***

From Ellyn:

Numerous women and men have suffered sexual abuse, exploitation or other sexual traumas as children. As a result, many people struggle with various issues around self worth, power and value in adulthood.

Singing with the Sirens addresses the long term effects of child sexual exploitation on women's lives, and how to embark upon a journey toward wholeness through healing and finding the lost voice of long ago.

Come to a group discussion with the authors of this book as we read and discuss chapter by chapter the content and the ability we all have to transform childhood pain and shame into grace and strength. This is a discussion group for anyone interested in the topic.

About Ms. Bell:

Ellyn Bell has worked as an organizational leader with at-risk and marginalized youth and addressing violence against women and children for 20 years. Her personal experiences as a youth informed her career choices. She was most recently, the Executive Director of the SAGE Project in San Francisco, one of the first peer-led organizations in the country to work with human trafficking and commercially exploited youth and adults. She holds a Master’s Degree in Religion, with an emphasis in Theology. She also received her social work license in the State of Iowa. Ellyn is also a yoga teacher and a trained dancer. She is mother to two wonderful people who are now extraordinary young adults.
