However, arrangements HAVE been made for students to continue their groups with their usual tutors at alternate locations.

FEES
Our fees have risen slightly this year to £7 a week and this allows you access to your group of choice. There is still no enrolment fee to join Safe Haven. As tutors or circle leaders give their time willingly free-of-charge, our fees are in place only to cover rental charges, lights, heating, water etc. for the use of Unstone Grange which I'm sure you’ll agree is good value for money.

Safe Haven provides spiritual awareness and development groups and courses for all levels throughout the year as well as healer training. We will also be privileged to be joined by a number of guest tutors and speakers who will be giving talks and demonstrations. 

OUR GROUPS
BASIC AWARENESS GROUP & SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT CLASSES
Tuesdays and Wednesdays

Training and development for the unfoldment of spiritual gifts, is thankfully, now being accepted. The age of enlightenment is truly upon us and more and more we see evidence of people from all walks of life and all age groups opening up their own spiritual nature.

It is here in the awareness class, under the guidance and direction of a teacher, that we discover the potential for spiritual development, but, knowing more of the self is also very important, whether we simply want to learn about, or develop, spiritual gifts. In so many of the ancient religions we see the statement "Man Know Thyself". This knowing includes the profound and fundamental realisation that we are Spirit here and now.

To aid students in the unfoldment of their own spiritual self, our awareness and development group will include guidance from the following non-exhaustive list of classes (not necessarily in order):

Meditation theory and practice
Sensitivity and self-awareness
The 6 Clairs
Working with energies
Working with the auric field
Positive thinking
Colours and auric exercises
Chakras
Healing
Psychic awareness exercises.
Working with psychic tools, e.g. tarot, crystal ball, runes, divination etc.
Understanding altered states of awareness
Introduction to Guides
'Is it me or is it them?' - knowing the difference
Philosophy, inspirational writing and speaking
Spirit Art
Introduction to and development of mediumship
Deeper levels - awakening the spirit
The Shamanic Path
Investigating the Paranormal
Self-discovery - a transpersonal perspective

SPIRITUAL HEALING
Wednesdays only

Our spiritual hands-on healing group may be of interest to you.

We offer healing training by teaching students, allowing them to practice this in our weekly sessions and in accordance with the guidelines set by UK Healers.

We do like our new trainees to have taken part in some form of awareness group first (see above) unless you are already a Safe Haven student and have taken part in previous groups.

This training will help you decide if you wish to take up healing yourself. It helps your spiritual progress and awareness of spirit by simply taking part and working with energies.

It is of course one of the main and most beneficial areas where you can work with spirit, teaching and learning unconditional love and compassion to all who are in need of healing either in mind, body or spirit.

VOLUNTEER TUTORS: Jo Doherty & Geoff Oldale

Meditation & Esoteric teaching/PHILOSOPHY
Wednesdays only

These passages are collected from throughout the works of various teachers of Esoteric Philosophy and provide a starting point for this most profound topic:

     Esotericism: "The philosophy of the evolutionary process both in man and the lower kingdoms in nature. The science of the accumulated wisdom of the ages. Presents a systematic and comprehensive account of the energetic structure of the universe and of man's place within it. Describes the forces and influences that lie behind the phenomenal world. Also, the process of becoming aware of and gradually mastering these forces." ("Maitreya's Mission III" by Benjamin Creme, p. 609)

     "As an esoteric science -- meaning simply that it lies beyond the understanding or comprehension of the average person -- it presents a systematic and comprehensive account of the evolutionary process, in man and nature, from an energetic standpoint: how the universe came to exist, how it operates, and man's place within it. Esotericism, as it is sometimes called, is also the art of working with those energies which emanate from the highest spiritual sources. From behind the scenes, these teachings have guided and shaped civilization after civilization, leading to all the great advances in human endeavor, be they in the sciences, politics, the arts or religion." (Benjamin Creme)

     "In its essence esotericism is the art of consciously recognizing that all existence, manifested in its myriad variations of form and quality, is fundamentally based on energy." ("Bridges" by Aart Jurriaanse, p. 233)

     "The Ageless Wisdom Teaching, or esotericism as it is often called, is not a religion. It is not, strictly speaking, a philosophy; it is not an art or a science, but it has something of all of these.
     You might say that esotericim is the philosophy, or the science, of the evolutionary process, as it pertains to the human and the subhuman kingdoms. But it is about the evolution of consciousness, not of the physical form. If you want to know about the evolution of the physical form, turn to Darwin - he has pretty well summed up the nature of evolution as regards the form of the animal and the human kingdoms. But in terms of the evolution of consciousness, you have to turn to the esoteric -- esoteric only so far; for that which is esoteric gradually becomes exoteric." [The human being is not simply an animal but is the point where spirit and matter meet.] ("The Ageless Wisfom Teachings" by Benjamin Creme, p. 5)

This group will explore all of the above concepts and encompasses meditation techniques which allow access to those energies which emanate from the highest spiritual source.
