Hey there everyone,

I just finished creating the draft schedule for Saturday's party, and I'm pinching myself thinking about all the amazing people who are going to be there.

Cindy Ashton, for example, who has just confirmed her special musical guest appearance, will be performing a 20-minute set of inspirational music. To give you an example of her caliber, she is going to Los Angeles for the summer to record the title track for the inspirational movie, "The Time Is Now", featuring leaders such as Jack Canfield and Rev. Dr. Michael Beckwith from "The Secret".

You'll meet people who have formulated their own health products, those who have written books and others who have devoted their entire lives to energy healings. From doctors to spiritual psychotherapists, to hypnotherapists, you're sure to expand your consciousness.

And, we're all about celebration and fun! From two hot DJ's, to a drumming group, two kinds of dance classes, and five kinds of yoga (including Laughter Yoga), you'll want to be there right from the beginning to the very end so that you don't miss a thing.

At any given time, you'll have several choices of activities and mini-workshops you can participate in.

Throughout the evening, you can indulge in our delicious (and healthy) chocolate chunks, take a rest on the Youthing Mat, or get a massage from the secret masseuses walking around!

The Wellness Party -- A Natural High Experience! is this Saturday at 9 PM @ The Universal Light Centre, 719 Coxwell Avenue (Toronto, Canada). Complete details below.


Love,

have fun creating your life!
