I just wanted to remind you that, today, 10 December 2008, marks Human Rights Day and the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. So perhaps take a moment to think of those who are suffering, offer a prayer and give thanks for your own ‘safe’ life. “It is our duty to ensure that these rights are a living reality -- that they are known, understood and enjoyed by everyone, everywhere. It is often those who most need their human rights protected, who also need to be informed that the Declaration exists -- and that it exists for them.” Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
We its been months since my last newsletter- and so much has happened, I walked part of the Camino De Santiago (what a wonderful, peaceful, amazing experience that was ), from there I went straight to the women’s 13 Moons Festival, and then back to reality of working and teaching! My biggest news is that I have opened a shop- well a shop within a shop. We were unable to save our local Post office- but are hoping by opening our Bristol Green Store inside the old Chessel St Post Office we will at least save the corner shop from closure! So half of our shop is a very ordinary corner shop- with all your usual food stuffs and stationary supplies etc and then on the other side is our Green Store- promoting local producers and sustainable green products- see below for the longer article and our website and face book link!
I have a new Angel Meditation- see http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=c1A8XQSTA9w
and of course my usual Moon Times products (we have extended our range in to Moon Sponges and Cups!) see www.moontimes.co.uk we will be supplying bamboo and hemp nappies in Jan 09!
Phew, well I guess that’s me…do enjoy the rest of the newsletter-- as usual there’s some events listed, networking section, winter tips, an affirmation and inspirational quote! Much love, Happy Winter Solstice and many Xmas blessings, Rachael xxx | |||
Courses and Reiki Shares: | |||
New Year Reiki I Course Jan 10th & 11th, Montpelier. £150 Reiki is a powerful ‘self help tool’ ~ it helps develop a positive attitude to life, increases energy and expands creativity. Reiki brings about deep relaxation, feelings of joy and well being, leaves you feeling calmer, content and serene; it helps you feel more optimistic and better able to cope with day to day stresses that modern day living often brings. This level allows you to channel reiki energy and thus treat yourself and others.
The class consists of an attunement and all the required information & practical exercises to allow you to understand and use Reiki.

The Bristol Green Store has grown up out of my Moon Times business, and a need to provide access to my products beyond the webshop and fairs. I was also fed up with not being able to get practical green things, from cleaners to natural beauty products, without a trip across town or spending a fortune on carriage from online stores! So I teamed up with Emma Winfield (of Simply Natural Homes), an active member with me of Transition BS3, to launch Bristol's one-stop-green-store. We are located within The Ghost Office (the former Post Office in The Chessels in Ashton / Bedminster), and share the space with his traditional corner store. We've got multiple ambitions for the store - in addition to providing sustainable goods and practical items to help us each lessen our impact, we want to build the Bristol-wide local economy. We are inviting every local producer of sustainable goods in and around Bristol to get involved, offering their items for sale through the store. We are also launching a services directory listing local trades people with experience of green trades & products. We will also be contributing towards keeping The Ghost Office open as a corner store, a vital local service for the elderly and less able in our area especially. Please support us by coming in to the store, letting us know what else you'd like to see in there and bringing samples of your produce if you'd like to be part of the offering!. website www.bristolgreenstore.co.uk facebook- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bristol/Bristol-Green-Store/56935198168?ref=share Products on offer- natural cleaning products, Eco paints and varnishes, baby booties, baby and kids t-shirts, nappies, breast pads, grown ups t-shirts, tea towels, cards of all kinds, photos, Bella Bees wonderful balms, Moon Times eco sanitary wear, natracare pads, organic cotton wool (throw away and washable!), knitted hats, scarves, wraps, gloves, wool, felt purses, scarves, wooden plates, bowls, mirrors, green bike oil, books, Pure Nuff beauty products, diaries, calendars, gift packs and so much more!!

| And to finish: On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know... ...that every increased possession loads us with a new weariness.
John Ruskin said that, and he was right. Life is not about our physical or material possessions, it is about the agenda of our soul. When material possessions serve that agenda, they can be wonderful and are to be celebrated. But if they come between us and the soul, then we may very well be delayed on our holy journey Our journey is the path back to peace, to harmony, to deep inner joy, to love, and to God
