Interested in learning more about spiritual healing? Consider attending one of a number of workshops available. These short, usually inexpensive sessions can offer a good introduction to the spiritual healing arts, without the commitment of a lengthy training session or longer certification program.
One program in particular is aimed at helping war veterans and their families. Offered by the International Conference of War Veteran Ministers (ICWVM), the workshops help combat veterans come to terms with the experiences in terms of their faith and spiritual beliefs. These weekend sessions are designed for those who have served in combat missions in the armed forces, along with their spouses. The workshops are held in major cities throughout the US, and there are usually several workshops available during any given month. The weekend offers a chance for participants to talk about their war experiences in a caring and supportive atmosphere, and explore how their experiences have had an impact on their belief system and religious practices.

The Spiritual Awakening Network also offers a large number of workshops, and lists more than 200 sessions. Topics include Reiki, soul fusion, chakra, crystals, Atlantean methodologies, and a huge number of other practices. The site, at www.powerattunements.com, has an extensive listing of available workshops, along with details and pricing information.
A number of workshops are also available online, including the spiritual healing workshops offered by The Psychics & Mediums Network at www.psychics.co.uk. Their healing workshops are offered in locations in Paris, Sydney and London. Topics include psychic abilities, contacting the spiritual realm, and the power of positive visualization. Less serious topics are also on the menu, and include a fun quiz club. It’s easy to join in remotely for these classes; check their website for details on times.
Specializing in crystal healing, the Natural Health and Lifestyle Directory, at www.usenature.com, offers a series of workshops at their center in Australia. If you can’t attend, they also offer a good selection of reading materials so you can learn on your own. At Heart and Soul Connections, (www.heartandsoulconnections.net) spiritual facilitators Rev. Paul Taylor and Rev Joan Marois offer a comprehensive listing of available workshops, and will work with you to create a session that is right for your needs.
Many spiritual healing facilitators also offer workshops for either groups or one-on-one. You can probably find a number of them just by doing a quick search on the spiritual topic of your choice. To find a workshop near you, contact a local spiritual healer, or ask for a referral at your local library or community education center. Before paying the fee, do a little homework on the person giving the instructor. In the United States, the field of spiritual healing is not strictly regulated, so it’s important that you understand the background and training of the person providing the workshops.
Workshops can be an excellent way to help you discover a new way of connecting with your inner energies. By developing an awareness of the body’s natural energies, you can learn to control them and fix imbalances that can cause physical problems. Once you’ve mastered these techniques, you can often turn that into a service to others, and offer yourself for training. With the increasing amount of attention being received by spiritual healing topics, you may be able to find a lecture near you on the topic. Many universities and colleges offer talks on various spiritual topics including the healing arts, and community groups also sponsor these kinds of lectures. Check with your local library or continuing education center to find one near year, or search online for local lecture series.
