An ancient Native American burial site in Crystal River, Florida, was active for more than 2,000 years, and up to 1,500 Native Americans are buried there. Our featured guest is John Connor. He’s been working for the last 12 years as a spiritual care counselor in hospice, and is an ordained minister. We’ll be talking with John about his insights from his important spiritual work. Reflect on the importance of being in the present moment. Learn about upcoming mindful events and spiritual observances including the Samhain, considered by some people to be the Wiccan New Year.
The Reno Spiritual Wellness Expo will have products, services and resources to help you to grow towards self understanding and wholeness. The Expo will also have seminars, workshops, and speakers on a wide range of subjects including self healing, and a special Trance Medium Channeling event
