Advanced Invitational Workshop on Therapeutic Touch

Experienced Therapeutic Touch (TT) practitioners and teachers will enjoy
the opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and explore
what it means to live Therapeutic Touch. The Advanced Invitational
Program offers discussion and application of current TT research, awareness of Inner Self, trans-personal interactions, considerations of
TT through the dying process, as well as discussion of health related
issues, ethical considerations and other thought provoking topics.

You will experience new ways of thinking about and practicing TT.
Participants will help create the program themselves. You will be
invited to dig deeper into your Inner Self to see who you are as a
healer and continue to answer the question Dee has asked so often, "Why
do you want to be a healer?" You will have numerous opportunities to
give and receive TT in a beautiful peaceful setting. For participants comments about the program, see below.

Comments on the  Advanced Program at Pumpkin Hollow

"Pumpkin Hollow Retreat Center is an ideal environment to explore, reflect and deepen the
Therapeutic Touch experience at the advanced level".               Cheri Brady

"As a first time attendee at Pumpkin Hollow, I experienced a profound
sense of grounding from the moment I stepped onto the grounds- it was SO 
peaceful and relaxing! The sense of openness and camaraderie made me
feel so welcome. I learned and grew in a comfortable environment- I even sensed Dora's presence one day in the meditation room - I can hardly wait to go back this year!"                                                      Christina de Carlo

"There is something very special about Pumpkin Hollow and it cannot be
described in words. Come to Pumpkin Hollow and experience the feeling
for yourself. Experience the trees, the meditation center, the
labyrinth, the people of Pumpkin Hollow and the spirit of Dora who still
seems present when we gather there to do Therapeutic Touch."
Doreen Sullivan

"I was wondering what it would be like to attend Advanced without Dee's
physical presence. I'm thinking that we will never quite replicate that
experience, but I was pleasantly glad to see that her "krazies" are
carrying the ball forward. The program was filled with many interesting
topics. It is wonderful to be with our fellow "TT-ers" and to share their
supportive energies. I found it inspiring to hear what others are doing
with TT and how each of us doing the smallest project will help to
carry the work of Dora and Dee forward. The support and mentoring
available to us through TTIA is phenomenal."

Judy A. Custer

"I have been privileged to attend the Advanced Invitational TT workshop
at Pumpkin Hollow for a number of years now and can't say enough praise
about it. Pumpkin Hollow is a magical place to practice TT with other
practitioners on healees from the community and on each other. Being
together in this most lovely natural setting fosters a very special
sense of belonging, is nourishing spiritually, and offers an opportunity
to deepen our knowledge of TT and sensitivity with respect to ourselves
and others, an essential component of healing. It is also a wonderful
place to connect with longtime friends and begin new friendships with
like-minded human beings."                                               
Doris Weber

"No matter how many times I come to any of the TT programs at PHRC
especially the Advanced; I am always amazed at how much understanding of
the process is deepened, as well as the connectivity to the universal
healing field and the community of like-minded practitioners. Exposure
to TT is like peeling an onion, the more you study it, the more complex
and yet elegantly simple it appears. There could be no better place than
Pumpkin Hollow for the advancement of one's TT
practice."
