PAYPAL and CREDIT CARD payments are now available!

Finally!

Ballawoods can now accept Paypal payments (including credit card payments) on the website now.

This is great news for people who would like to purchase larger packages of sessions and/or training or workshop fees that are sometimes difficult to pay by cash or cheque.

Remember, this is ONLY on the website. I can still only take cash or cheque in person.

I've very happy about this new development!

Barrie Psychic Fair and more!!

Hello everyone,

Yes, it is THAT time of year again. The Barrie Psychic Expo is back on at the Army, Navy & Airforce Club in Barrie, Ontario. Friday the 11th to Sunday the 13th of September! I absolutely love doing the Barrie Expo every year. I never fail to meet the most amazing and diverse people, not to mention a few kindred spirits. The energy is always high and exciting and I can't wait to be in it again this coming week. Come if you can! Stop by the booth and say "hi". I will be offering 30 & 60 minute sessions as well as offering Soma Ki foot treatments for the first time. 10 minutes for $10. For those feet weary from walking the fair and for those who need some good grounding from all that high energy that is always present.

My phone is back to normal (or should be in a couple of days) and I do believe my email has been cleared of that over quota message. It's all been odd since my voicemail has NOT been full and neither has my email box been over quota since I've been receiving all my messages still. A friend of mine said that perhaps it was a message to me that I should have been taking the time to get better (massive flu) and spending my last week with Maggie before school. We'll I've had a great recouping week and Maggie and I have had some great time together....thanks for the message!

Heads up!! Classes are going to begin again in the next couple of weeks - check out the "Monthly Calendar" for updates on classes.

Ta!

Kit

Thank you, Summer - it's been interesting...

It has been a very busy summer! I'm working on many exciting things and for Ballawoods and for me personally. I've met the most incredible people and had extreme experiences that I will never forget.

Fall is nearing and as it does the feeling of momentum returns. It's time again to introduce new things to the business and to my clients, time to put together all I've learned and pass it on, time to enjoy the company of like-minded people again. Please check out the Monthly Calendar on the website to find out what will be happening in September and October this year. Don't forget that the Barrie Psychic Fair is coming up, September 11, 12 & 13th at the Army, Navy & Airforce Club in Barrie, Ontario. I will be doing healing work there, selling my bathsalts and candles as well as lecturing.

Riding the wave,

Kit Woods

Karuna Reiki coming to Ballawoods!

I will be gone for Karuna Reiki training until June 12th. This is an exciting opportunity to study under William Rand of the International Centre for Reiki Training. William Rand is one of the foremost experts on western Usui Reiki and the founder of Karuna Reiki.

This Karuna Reiki training will take place in Glastonbury, U.K., and the attunments will be given inside the circle at Stonehenge. Being able to touch the stones at Stonehenge, receive my attunements and have some time of meditation within the circle is the chance of a lifetime for me. I've always been facinated by the standing stones around the U.K.!

I believe that adding Karuna Reiki to my training will make me a better practitioner and allow me to give my clients the best possible service. It is also my hope to add Karuna Reiki training to my programs in the future following registration with the International Centre for Reiki Training.

Wish me luck!

January 2009 updates

A very belated HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!

I would like to begin with my sincere thanks to everyone for their patience and understanding while I struggled with my business responsibilities and the horrible illness and death of my father-in-law over the last few months. I appreciate it more than I can tell you. I am happy to report that as of Monday, January 26th, I will be returning to regular business hours and classes. Please check the website www.ballawoods.com for hours and class schedules. My sister, Erin, will be getting married this coming Saturday and so I have a happy event before work begins again in full. I am very thankful for the many blessings of this life!

2009 is a brand new experience and it will be a life changing one at that. I am so happy to be able to do this healing work and I look forward to spending time with you in many ways, attending to body, mind and spirit. This is the year to devote to being happy, healthy and whole on all levels. Cheers to a bright and shining 2009!

Again, my sincere thanks!
