A Reiki share
For REIKI III Master Healers ... on the 3rd Monday of every month
There will be no REIKI SHARE this month because of the Easter/Passover Holiday. The last SHARE of the summer will be onMay 19th. We will resume in the Fall of 2025. We celebrate this Easter, with forgiveness and letting go of judgement, for the sake of New Beginnings. We can have New Beginnings right now, when we can find acceptance in our hearts for all that is, the good and the bad. We can better achieve the fullness of our desire by releasing our “clogs” along the way. When we do this, we are able to find flow.
This is an open Invitation to all Reiki III Masters of all lineages to come together to share, expand, enhance and brush up on Reiki.
You don't need to call, just come!
Wear comfortable clothes. Bring a table if you have one.A $5 donation will be requested to support the building at RTI.
REIKI to all for Peace and Healing on Earth and Prayers for the Opening of the Heart of All Humanity! Looking forward to seeing you again.
Blessings ever abound! Rev. Zan

A SHAMAN JOURNEY EXPERIENCE ... spring 2025...
Spring Journey, April 26, 2025
A SHAMAN JOURNEY is similar to guided meditation enhanced by the heart beat of the large mother drum. The Journey will take us down and out through the dimensions of our imagination where reality and dream time interweave into a perfect tapestry based on your own special rhythms, understandings and frequencies.
We travel together into our own shaman's dream for our own personal guidance and discovery. This is an adventure and exploration into realms where information, messages, connections and relationships magically unfold.
Through the reverberation of the drum, inner gateways of frequencies open our sub-conscious mind helping us access guides, totems and insights for healing and understanding according to our own individuals need.
The Journey itself is approximately 30 to 40 min. The rest is preparation and processing.
WHAT TO BRING
Rising Tide International provides, yoga mats, bolsters, blankets and pillows and you may wish to bring your own for your comfort. Also bring something with which to cover your eyes for darkness and bring a spirit stone or rock, ( one which calls to you.) It will become your Wotai stone, or Sacred Stone and hold the experience for you. Those who have journeyed with me may have one already have one! Bring a pad and paper to notate your Journey, while it is still fresh.

WOMEN'S MEDITATION Circle... April 18, 2025
STARLIGHT TO EARTHLIGHT...led by Maureen McSweeney
Behind the clouds, the starlight lurks.
Shining in the darkness, ribbons of light
from stars now gone, but still sending their light to earth.
Maureen had a dream that clearly represents this Circle and the work it does. In the dream, a group of lightworkers were living in community. They focused on earth conditions, never faltering in their quest. Connected to others around the globe, they activated light at a moment's notice whenever conditions required their attention and work.
On April 18th her meditation is called Starlight to Earthlight - The Human - Gaian Collaboration. She will guide us in attuning our Soul's Light as it connects with the Light of Gaia and the Star Light that pours down from the heavens. You'll be directed to carry this light to somewhere on the planet that's needed for healing of individuals or that specific location.
Please join the meditation circle at Rising Tide, 5102 Swift Rd. on Friday evening at 6:30 pm. Come early - meet and greet - and enjoy visiting old friends. Meditation starts at 7 pm. BY DONATION to Rising Tide.
HEADS UP
PLEASE BRING FOR THE ALTAR
Maureen has asked each person attending this meditation to bring a "piece of nature" with them for the altar. It could be a pine cone, a leaf, a small branch, a flower, or a stone from your garden, a park or somewhere in nature that is sacred to you.
She feels this nature addition will build upon, and aid your connection to Earth energies during the meditation."
Please join the meditation circle at Rising Tide, 5102 Swift Rd. on Friday evening at 6:30 pm. Come early - meet and greet - and enjoy the new year. Meditation starts at 7 pm.
PLEASE DONATE to Rising Tide as though you were attending.

FALL EQUINOX, CelebratION AND CEREMONY
Led By Rev. Zan Benham, Butterfly Deerwoman
Rev. Zan Butterfly Deerwoman in conjunction with Unity of Sarasota will be facilitating a Winter Soltice Celebration & Ceremony on , 6 pm at the Labyrinth behind the church.
WHAT TO BRING:
Bring a chair upon which to sit, drums or rattles to shake or beat, bug spray for safe keeping, water for thirst, some money for donating to support upkeep of the Labyrinth. Wear your colorful, comfy fall ceremonial clothes? We will drum, chant and earth dance our way around the fire in the Celebration of the Winter Season.
FALL EQUINOX:
Rev. Zan Benham, ButterflyDeerwoman leads the Ceremony and Celebration, assisted by many other Lights from our community.
This Winter Solstice hearkens a Sacred time of Holy days, of Hanukkah, Christmas (Christ Mass), and Kwanzaa with a New Moon on the 30th. This marks a time of endings, a pause before new beginnings. In the darkness of the twilight, we let go to the dream, with soft surrender, as if we were birthing ourselves once again into that authentic Soul of our Being.
This transformation gives us a wonderful opportunity to bring these softer, more hopeful frequencies forward with us in 2024. If we have the good Light of Creator within us, then how great can we Shine Our Light?
Join us to bathe your heart and soul in the beauty and peace this season.
Friday's ceremony will honor these qualities. Together we will hold sacred space for the power of love, light, humility and peace to transcend and infiltrate all beings on this planet and that we may emulate the path of respect and forgiveness for all beings, including ourselves. It is time for us to connect deeply with one another, the earth, the oceans and all people.
Rev. Zan Benham, Butterfly Deerwoman will be officiating this event, along with many other members of the community at the beloved Labyrinth at Unity of Sarasota.
With blessing of Light, Love, Ease and Peace to all,
Rev. Zan
There will be a request of donations to go towards the cost for upkeep of the Labyrinth.

lAW OF ATTRACTION
at Unity Church ...Classroom with Zan Butterfly Deerwoman
Law of Attraction.
It may be incumbent upon some of us now, to once again revisit, remember and review the processes, good tools,and principles of the Law of Attraction (LOA.) We are assisted by Esther and Jerry Hicks in their book,
“Ask and It Is Given.” Another name for LOA is the Law of Cause and Effect
and or the Law of Sow/Reap.
Working with the Law of Attraction is an exercise in mindful consciousness. It brings us to the understanding that we truly live in the realities of the present (pre sent) moment and that we are co-creators of these realities.
In this class we understand that we are all co-creators and that when one “ASKS,” then it is indeed "GIVEN." We are encouraged to live in its actualization. The workings of this Law are subtle and specific. It is each person's own "inside job" in alliance with Source.
This is a progressive, leading edge class to enhance and expand our spiritual understanding, growth, well-being and connection to Source and Highest Guidance.
Class includes a meditation and a review each week of ones or two the 22 processes contained in the Ask and It is Given book.
Rev. Zan Benham has taught the Law of Attraction for 10+ years. She is a Universal New Thought minister, a Sufi Cherag, a spiritual counselor, certified hypnotist, shamanic practitioner, Reiki Master teacher and a ceremonialist.
