New Fairy Joy Class!

April 28th, 2009 -- Posted in classes | No Comments »
I’m tired of the doom and gloom…
When I created the Fairy School and researched the Fairy Field Guide, I tapped into the most amazing, lighthearted energy–Fairy energy. This Fairy energy is contagious. It’s focused on joy. After all, we are told, in order to manifest what we want, our energy must be up, right?

We have all been through so much in the past few years. Our bodies and our souls are weighed down and tired! The news is all bad and filled with fear. We need this new, joyful energy now more then ever to keep us up and functioning! We need to regain those joyful parts of ourselves that have been lost through all the trauma drama we’ve experienced. Think of this class as Fairy Prozac without the side effects.

What is the Fairy Joy class? Three times a week you will receive via email a short lesson or treat–much like the toy surprise in Cracker Jacks–to raise your spirits and bring in that Fairy joy energy. We are catering to that inner child that loves surprises. If you’ve taken classes from me before, then you know I love sharing stories and resources, and always have a fun homework to give. In your short lessons you receive on Fairy Days, you may receive either:
  • FAIRY FUN: a link to a silly video or inspiring website that will make you giggle
  • FAIRY EYE CANDY: the gift of a piece of delicious art that will make your heart smile
  • FAIRY ADVENTURE INVITATION: an invitation to search for a flower, or revisit a place used to love to regain you
  • FAIRY PLAY: a crafty exercise to do or a writing prompt to explore your joy deeper
  • FAIRY WISDOM: an essay that helps you feel less alone OR a fairy suggestion on manifesting joy to give you tools

Sounds yummy? Want more details?  Check it out here and sign up. Class starts in May.

Jessica has been in a baking mood. I don’t bake, but I do draw food!

cookingkitchenBefore I became ultra-weird and acquired a profession as an animal communicator, I illustrated my first book, Cooking Art, Gryphon House Inc. I had so much fun drawing all the foods for the book. I discovered I am not much a cook, but very good at drawing food. This was our kitchen way back when!
