Our Guest Speakers

ɵ Dr. Yubraj Sharma

~ Homeopathic proving of Chalice Well. Anthroposophy and the Arthurian legends

Yubraj will also talk about Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophical philosophy of future stages of the human race with reference the forces of duality and shadow, and the role of souls who have been involved in the Arthurian legends as spiritual warriors. The esoteric meaning of the alleged resting place of King Arthur’s tomb in Glastonbury Abbey and the sacred hawthorn tree will also be discussed.

Tom Bree

~ As above, so below… on Earth as it is in Heaven, Tom Bree - Sacred Geometer, Author and Artist will give us a fascinating talk about re-establishing the relationship between heaven and earth. His newly published book The Cosmos in Stone is about the use of geometry and cosmology in Gothic cathedral design and is available from The Chalice Well Shop.

Tom’s talk will look at the importance of re-establishing the relationship between Heaven and Earth. This archetype is central to all spiritual paths because it involves the reconciliation and unifying of polarities. An active search for such unifying bridges between opposites, in all areas of life, is becoming increasingly urgent in the current time when antagonistic opposition is seemingly being encouraged from many different directions.

This talk will approach examples of this principle of relationship and healing between above and below through the use of cosmology and sacred geometry in the designs of medieval Christian cathedrals, especially our local cathedral in Wells. The symbolic journey through Wells Cathedral begins from the earth and slowly ascends into the heavens with the rising of the Bright Morning Star in the east. This is followed by the Earth-Moon relationship from John Michell’s New Jerusalem diagram, ascending northwards towards the octagonal Chapter House.

ɵ Chloe Goodchild ~ The Healing Voice as Messenger of the Soul

The sound of your authentic voice is as unique as your DNA or fingerprint. Chloe Goodchild is a voice healer, singer, wisdom teacher and composer. She founded The Naked Voice in 1990, a pioneering sound awareness programme, exploring human voice as a spiritual practice. The Naked Voice provides a wide range of spoken and sung communication skills, sourced from deep non-judgemental listening to the vibration, energy and frequency of the human voice. The Naked Voice practices enable you to explore your voice as a catalyst of self-discovery linking to the most profound levels of human wisdom. In this talk, Chloe will share examples of the transforming power of sound, and the healing voice as messenger of the soul.

Finding your true voice of your soul is your birth-right, liberating you to express yourself courageously and compassionately. The Naked Voice principles and practices inspire selfconfidence, health, inner stability and well-being. Chloe will give examples of the liberating power of the voice of the soul - rather than the personality or ego voice - to express emotional honesty, to heal relationships, to transform conflict into compassion, restoring harmony and oneness.
