THE WELLNESS SYMPOSIUM
SUNDAY DECEMBER 20, 2020
ONLINE
Even in the best of times, the stresses of creating a successful career can become all encompassing, overwhelming and detrimental to your well-being. Add to it the social, political climate and a global pandemic and it’s easy to understand why so many feel frozen in their tracks.
Making better decisions, focusing on you and figuring out your needs, as well as understanding and examining your physical and emotional effect on the world around you is an everyday challenge for many of us. It is compounded by our current challenges and the uncertainty we are facing on many levels.
In this unique and interactive program, our The Powder Group family of wellness leaders will bring attendees through a broad range of subject matter, all focused on creating a stronger sense of wellness in their life and career.
This program will set you on a path to becoming a stronger YOU. The Wellness Symposium will open you up to new ideas and show you tools and techniques for incorporating wellness into your life everyday. Learn about energy, and its overall affects on you, your relationship with yourself and those around you.
Walk away with tangible tools to begin creating your very own style of wellness to cultivate on a daily basis. Attendees will gain get access to tools and experience how it feels to let go of old thinking and patterns that hold you back from growth and creation. We will learn about and explore daily rituals that help keep energy clear and protected. We will participate in sacred ceremonies to release what no longer serves us and we will leave with the knowledge to return yourself to a state of grace and peace during deeply stressful times.
The Wellness Symposium will be led by The Powder Group founder Michael DeVellis and feature: James Vincent of Rebels & Outlaws, Auarlis Flores of The Moon & The Muse, Stacy Robinson< of A Raven’s Path and Sarah Rigano of Form and Light.REGISTER HERE

PRESENTER SESSIONS
Looking Forward, Living Now - James Vincent, BIOSponsored By:
We all want to live in the moment in a more aware and activated way. Making your mindfulness measurable allows you to bring wellness and wholeness from Inspiration to actual. As an artist we must continuously evolve our skills, improve our technique and push ourself to reach new goals. Sometimes in pursuing our business successes we can get so caught up in planning our future or changing our past we forget to make the most of the now. In uncertain times and in our constant pressure to create and connect to the client while worrying about our stability and success can be a constant drain on our health and wellness.
In this session James Vincent explores methods and mindful actions to a stronger human connection, more meaningful self care and commitment to yourself and community. We your thoughts, ideas, artistry, opportunities and your everyday life can be impacted by mindfulness and examine how artist tools like color and TPG methods like goal setting can continue to assist you in becoming the artist and person you want to be.

The Art of Unraveling: Finding the Gift in Falling Apart - Stacy Robinson, BIOSponsored By:
“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present, controls the past”- George Orwell
It is true, you can not heal in chaos, but you can heal From chaos. As an Energy Therapist, I have grown to understand most people live the same patterns over and over again. The same core lesson dressed up in a different situation. Without the energetic understanding to recognize what it is and where it comes from we leave ourselves open to a negativity hamster wheel. But with every darkness comes its opposition of light. The ability to recognize it and use it against itself AS its happening so you can change its course. In a year with some of our greatest lessons rising to the surface, let’s sit together and start the conversation on why the best way to change the future is to sit in our past lessons as they repeat. Feel them, empower yourself and change the narrative for a healthier future you.
Stacy Robinson | @aravenspath
Stacy Robinson is a Reiki Master, Access Bars Practitioner and life long Energy Intuitive. She credits her “reawakening” with a change in scheduling that led her to an experience with an energy healer in Chicago. This experience would cure a lifelong fear that had crippled her with even a hug from her children. The process was called Reiki.
For the next two years Stacy learned everything she could about the Energy Art of Reiki. Including a specialized certification in Maternity and Infertility Reiki. After years of only self practice she realized she was no longer meant to keep this “healing” gift to herself. As a true Virgo, and needing to understand exactly how something works, she took all three Reiki Certifications , through Master Level not once, but twice. Once as a gift to herself, the second for those she would hold space for.Stacy’s clients have labeled her as an “Energy Therapist” . In 2018 she officially gave a name to her visions and A Ravens Path was born.
Stacy is in constant study of the metaphysical world. With an amazement and respect of the emotional reaction of the physical body, numerology and astrology and how it relates to our personal relationships, especially our family dynamics, and with the perfect balance of practicality and woo woo, she keeps her feet on the ground in Long Island NY.
It is her belief that in order to be a good teacher you must have first needed to be the student. And that the role of student is one we luckily never graduate completely from.

Ignite - Sarah Rigano, BIOSponsored By:
We come together upon the eve of the Winter Solstice, one of the most powerful days of the year, celebrating the longest hours of darkness and the rebirth of the sun. A day believed to hold a profound energy for self- reflection and renewal, one encouraging of inward looking and outward transformation. We stand united in shared experience of a year that presented tests for many- trials and tribulations along with opportunities for realization, growth and change. And what better way to bring 2020 to a close than in a ritual of release through Fire Ceremony. Join Sarah as we take a journey of personal and creative reflection, upon what you want and need, what you wish to see and desire. Sit in witness of your community as we welcome the return of the light- setting goals and intentions for the coming year and illuminating the strength of your personal creative awakening as ignited by this powerful seasonal transition.
