Participants should park in the back. Participants will clearly understand why they are on Earth, where they came from, and the reason they attracted the environment and people in their lives; discern the thoughts and feelings they pick up; raise their energy and aura to a 100 percent positive and realized vibration; experience pure soul-to-soul communication; and experience powerful healing energy and develop their own healing abilities. The cost is $35.
