Science of Mind Classes |
|
|
|
We are all on a journey.... A journey of self-discovery. We continue to awaken to our Divine nature to the degree that we explore our believes and our spirituality. It has been said that “we are spiritual beings having a human experience”. Religious Science and the Science of Mind provide many opportunities for the discovery of the Higher Self through classes, workshops and seminars. The classes teach the Principles of Science of Mind and how to use them in our daily lives. The classes are informative, fun and experiential. They encourage discussion, self-exploration and the opportunity to deepen our personal experience of our spiritual nature, which supports our potential to lead a fuller, more expressive life. Regular classes include the foundational expression of the Core Concepts of the philosophies and the Principles of the Science of Mind, which lead into an understanding of the tools to be used to practice the principles, such as Spiritual Mind Treatment (a form of Affirmative Prayer), and Meditation. Students of the Science of Mind progress at their own pace as they learn more about themselves and their Divine nature. Upon completion of the core classes, students will be able to do Spiritual Mind Treatment for themselves and others that can bring healing and a greater consciousness of the presence of God within each individual. Beyond the certified classes, a student may elect to become a licensed Practitioner by continuing their class work for an additional 2 years. Practitioners are prayer partners who are available to provide personal service in time of need, when someone is faced with a challenge. Practitioners also serve as a support to the minister during the weekly service and throughout the week, as the need arises. |
