Overview
Experience an afternoon of spiritual connection, and messages from loved ones in Spirit.
Join me, Paula Lowe, for a special Souls United public demonstration of mediumship. In a world where more and more people are living with anxiety, fear and grief, it's important to find ways to bring healing. In this session, we'll begin with a brief energy work experience to set a positive tone and encourage a sense of connection between attendees and those in Spirit. The event will then move into a demonstration of mediumship, during which connections with loved ones in Spirit will be shared with members of the audience.
Mediumship is a spiritual practice in which a medium seeks to communicate with those who have passed on . At this demonstration, attendees will have the opportunity to witness the practice of mediumship in a welcoming, respectful, and supportive setting.
Whether you are curious about mediumship, interested in exploring energy work, or simply looking for a meaningful spiritual experience, I welcome you.
About Souls United
Souls United brings people together through spiritual connection, energy awareness, and the exploration of the continuing bonds we share with loved ones who have passed. Its purpose is to create a welcoming space for curiosity, reflection, connection, and community.
Please note: A public demonstration is a group experience. Individual readings or connections for every attendee are not guaranteed.
