Electrons Plus is a guided PEMF Therapy that effectively eliminates pain. Like a battery, the human body is electric and is made up of cells that carry voltage. Electrons Plus will allow me to stimulate the body by running an electromagnetic field through my hands to your body, creating a healing process at a cellular level.
Electrons Plus requires skin-to-skin contact in order to enact the healing process. Exposure will be necessary in order to target areas of discomfort. Your body will never be fully exposed, however, athletic clothing or easily accessible clothing is encouraged for easy treatment. Electrons Plus works and feels like a deep tissue massage. Participants are suggested to be hydrated before and after sessions.
Bio: Michael De Hoff is a Human Movement Specialist, Electrons Plus Practitioner, and the owner of Free Flow Training, LLC. Michael has a Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology from Penn State University and is certified in The GOATA Movement System.

Samadhi Movie, Part 3: "The Pathless Path"
2023-08-18 19:00 - 21:30 (America/New_York)
Samadhi is an ancient Sanskrit word, for which there is no modern equivalent. There is a fundamental challenge with making a film about Samadhi. Samadhi points to something that can’t be conveyed on the level of mind.” This movie is profoundly thought provoking, but more so an inward journey of surrendering to the unknown, beyond all thought, to the unique path each of us takes to the remembrance of the essence of our inner Being. Join us for this hour long movie for illuminating insights for your spiritual journey, followed with discussion and a gong meditation.
Following the movie, join Monica Mullen for a free gong meditation!
DATE: Friday, June 16, 2023
MOVIE TIME: 7 pm – 8:30 pm
SOUND MEDITATION TIME: 9:00pm

Cooking with Cannabis Introduction Class
2023-08-19 10:30 - 11:30, 2023-09-09 10:30 - 11:30 UTC
Blend the magic of cannabis with the craft of cooking in this introductory class that will teach you the basics of cooking with cannabis. Held in our demo kitchen, we will show you how to make infused butter and oil to give you the building blocks to include hemp in your dishes!
Decarb & Infuse
Decarboxylation, or decarb for short, is the process of altering the chemical makeup of cannabis to create a potent formula for edibles, oils, and salves. During this class, you’ll learn the decarboxylation process so you can infuse your medical marijuana or hemp flower into foods.
Dosing Edibles
Unless you invest in an at-home THC tester, there’s no way to know exactly how potent your infusion is. You can, however, do a calculation to get a rough estimate of potency. During this session, we’ll go over the process of dosing edibles to ensure safe consumption.*
INSTRUCTOR BIO: As a chronic pain sufferer, related to spine issues and migraines, Heather Kreider a Registered Nurse, knows first-hand how cannabis can help patients live a happier, healthier life. She is an Medical Marijuana card holder in PA, cannabis advocate and strives to break the stigma that cannabis users are “a bunch of burnouts.” Heather is also certified in Advanced Cannabis Training and is PA Dispensary Agent Certified.
Heather also helps patients navigate the process of obtaining a medical marijuana card, working with dispensaries, and determining the medical marijuana formulations and application methods that will best target the symptoms they’re experiencing. Her goal is to alleviate the gap in patient education by helping individuals understand the different types of cannabinoids, terpenes, and ways to consume medical marijuana. She also helps guide patients in how to safely administer the products they purchase.
*Basic recipe include.
NOTE: You do not need to be a PA Medical Marijuana patient to attend the class.

Community Acupuncture + the 5 Elements Series: Autumn Treatment
2023-09-15 17:30 - 19:00 (America/New_York)
Community Acupuncture + the 5 Elements Series: Autumn Treatment
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the five elements are associated with the seasons of Spring, Summer, Late Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Each element has many associations, including organs, meridians, and characteristics. Because all five elements are present within each of us, acupuncture can be especially beneficial at points of seasonal change, helping us to keep them all in balance, resulting in better health.
Community acupuncture is used for overall well-being and stress management and is facilitated in a group setting rather than on an individual basis. Participants are fully supported by a zero-gravity chair and will receive a 30 – 45-minute acupuncture treatment involving the insertion of very thin needles to strategic points on arms, legs, and ears intended to elicit a relaxation response.
FOCUS: During this session, we will focus on an acupuncture treatment designed to work with the organs associated with the Chinese medicine element of Earth; the Spleen and the Stomach. We will also cover some of the other correspondences of Earth but special attention to Earth’s pillar of health & wellbeing: Food and Nutrition
