In a world of division, change, and uncertainty, it is paramount for us to prioritize the balance of our own body, mind, and spirit in order for each of us to be lights to a world in need. We invite you to this day of holistic renewal, revitalization, and community. This hands-on workshop will combine the wisdom of the Cayce Readings, deep inner work, physical activity, and humor to help each participant find their unique way forward through these stressful times.

NOTE: While we will have lots of fun, this is a workshop. This program is for those who are serious about their spiritual development.

9:45 am - 11:00 am

Creating a Life of Joy and Peace

With even a short time attending a Study Group of The Search for God materials, I found that many of the statements that Edgar Cayce made were so subtle, yet monumental in understanding. This talk is about his statement, “Spirit is the Life, Mind is the Builder, and the Physical is the Result” (E.C. 3359-1). Putting each piece of that statement into practice led me to understand and practice setting an Ideal, being more deliberate in what I eat, and practicing prayer and meditation regularly. The change in my thinking was so powerful and transformative that I have a completely different outlook on life and am fully experiencing a life of joy and peace. If I have been able to make a change, then any of us can do so as well.

11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Discovering Your Soul's Purpose

This talk looks at why we are here, what we are meant to do while on earth, and how a person can be their true authentic self. It discusses universal purposes that we all have for being in the earth, as well as each person’s individual purpose and how to determine what that purpose is. The talk also gives specific criteria that each person can use to determine whether they are actually doing their Soul’s Purpose. The information comes primarily from the Edgar Cayce Readings, but also includes what A Course In Miracles says about the topic.

12:00 pm - 12:30 pm

Incorporating Ideals into Your Life

LifeAccording to the Cayce Readings, knowing one’s spiritual ideal is “the most important experience of this or any individual entity.” During this time we will gain a deeper understanding of spiritual, mental, and physical ideals by actually working with them. We will each go deep within to uncover our spiritual ideal and from that map out the clear mental attitudes and solid physical action steps needed to manifest our Highest Selves. You will leave with a written plan that will change your life.

12:30 pm - 1:40 pm

Lunch

1:40 pm - 2:40 pm

How to Receive Spiritual Guidance and Make Spiritual Decisions

This talk examines how to make decisions in life based on spiritual principles, and it gives specific ways to do this. Included are various sources of Spiritual Guidance, including prayer, meditation, dreams and angels, along with how to achieve guidance using each source. Following these specific principles guarantees that we will always make the correct decision, which will result in peace, calm and happiness. The information comes from the Edgar Cayce Readings and A Course In Miracles.

2:40 pm - 3:30 pm

Small Group Dream Work

Please bring a dream to share.

3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

Healing with Divine Light and Love

“…no medicine, no application, mechanical appliance or otherwise, DOES the healing - but that only the attunement to the divine within BRINGS health.” 261-27 According to the Edgar Cayce readings, all healing comes from the divine within. In this presentation, Dr. Doug Knueven will present scientific evidence that points to just how this might work. He will share a technique he has developed to use this principle for the healing of self and others in an experiential presentation.

Elisabeth “Beth” Ehrlich is currently managing the Regent Square Search for God Study Group that meets every Monday evening at 7:00 PM Eastern on Zoom. We are a friendly group investigating the Edgar Cayce readings through The Search for God books to increase awareness of the statement, “Spirit is the life, Mind is the Builder, and the Physical is the result” in our lives now in the 21st century. Our discussions each week add to the spiritual awareness of each person in the group. Beth has been a student of The Search for God materials for nearly 10 years and offers her personal insights to how this commitment has enhanced her life and filled her heart. Primarily she attended workshops and conferences online and on demand until last October, when her Study Group members encouraged her to attend the Ancient Mysteries conference in person at Virginia Beach. This was her first experience at HQ, and it was wonderful.
