The Way of the Shaman
A Day of Chi Gong & Sacred Ceremony
with John Tindall (MCSP, SRP,MRCHM)
Join us for a very special experience of Chi Gong and Native American Ceremony.
John Tindall is a state registered physiotherapist and Chinese medicine practitioner (Acupuncture, Chinese herbs, Qi Gong and Food Therapy), working in London and teaching internationally in the field of mental health, substance abuse, HIV, HCV and cancer since the mid 1980’s. He is well known for his pioneering work in these areas of health care in the NHS and his private clinic.
John has been practising martial arts, Qi Gong and Tai Chi Chuan since he was young. In his 40 yrs of practice he has been privileged to study with highly realised masters. For the last 20 yrs John has dedicated much of his time following the teachings of Indigenous American healing practices from both North and South America, such as sweat lodge, vision quest, sun dance, spirit dance and ceremonies. He has received personal guidance and mentoring from chiefs, shamans, medicine men and women. John is now accepted as a ceremony leader and medicine man.
John’s unique eclectic style utilising both ancient and modern wisdoms is a wonderful and powerful stepping-stone to your own personal healing and development. During the workshop John will teach Qi Gong to help you to directly experience the subtle energy matrix of your own body, mind, and spirit helping to direct these energies to enable you to achieve a constant sense of growth and vitality. John will also host a “ceremony of water” and in so doing will demonstrate the Native American ceremonial traditions complete with song, intention, blessings and grace for our focused intention.
John’s workshops and ceremonies are an opportunity for you to choose to celebrate life in an inspiring and creative atmosphere. This is set to be a very powerful and intimate day.

Meditation can simply be a way of bringing some much needed inner peace into a stressful life, but essentially it is more than that: it is a means of developing a deeper sense of harmony with ourselves and the world around us.
Join us on Tuesday evenings where one of our facilitators will lead a meditation. Meditations will include Sound Meditation with Sound Therapist Sarah Warwick, Breath Meditation with Kinesiologist and Healer Devin Dyason, and Language of Light Meditation with Rhonda Clarke.
Sound Meditation
Using simple pure vocal tones we will tone the major energy centres of the body, helping to tune up and bring into balance our mind, body and spirit, helping us to relax into the profound silence after the sound. Sarah will also use Tibetan and Quartz Crystal Singing Bowls to enhance deep relaxation.
Movement Meditation & Language of Light Meditation
Explore an hour of pure bliss and connection to your whole body from the inside out. Feel sensations from deep within your cells, to relax you and energise you. Cleanse the old and bring in the new. "What moves, moves".
The Language of Light Meditation uses visualization and colour to balance the body's energy centres. Like a gentle Chi Gung, Movement Meditation is style of meditation that releases stagnant energy through gentle spherical movement of the body connecting with breath."
