The One Gathering is the amazing heart chakra opening brainstorm of visionary Jennifer Yost, MA, LMHC. Each year the 2.5 hour multisensory program brings together inspirational speakers, energy healers, high energetic frequency graphics, and musicians to provide a full program that supports an uplifting experience as it supports heart openings in the audience. The grand finale is always the energetic ‘tune-up,’ the heart-opening chakra attunement to raise consciousness for a new time, to reach a higher vibration of peace and joy. The goal: to ‘expand heart-centered consciousness to harmonize and create more abundance’ as it facilitates healing on ‘all levels of your being’ and brings people together in community.
In short, to paraphrase Jennifer: to offer entertainment, healing, and community so “attendees walk away feeling lighter, inspired, and expanded in divine alignment with their higher self,” and “to bring healing energy to the places it’s held in, to subtly shift the energy of towns, cities and countries to a higher frequency of peace and love.”
And it works!
In 2007 Jennifer felt called to provide a forum for people to come together to help birth a higher consciousness with ease and grace. She has provided a unique forum every year since.
This year Fallon and I were honored to be part of the program. It was held June 2, 2013, at Washington Hall in Seattle.
Jennifer has been working in the healing arts of counseling and energy healing for 17 years as a psychotherapist and Reiki master who combines deep insight into people with her heart opening work that she calls Quantum Reiki, which expands energy healing into the past and across dimensions to facilitate healing of outdated patterns on all levels of being. I have personally experienced her Reiki work, which is not only powerful but deeply moving. She believes “these are transformative and pivotal times on the planet” and she would like to assist humanity in transcending this “birthing” into higher consciousness with as much grace and ease as possible. Jennifer’s background as a Reiki Master and practice of Quantum Healing led her to develop a way to channel high healing energy to large groups, energetically attuning crowds to the unconditional love of the heart chakra.
Jennifer is deeply committed to the unique healing group attunement offered to The One Gathering attendees. She believes it energetically integrates the program content and allows the releasing of what no longer serves us and so helps to raise consciousness. As she says, “There is nothing to fear when centered within the Truth of the heart.”
Master of Ceremonies Thomas Brophy was the “spiritual stand up comedian and stage manager.” A Reiki master and actor, Thomas kept the program moving with his high energy and gentle presence.
Samantha Parrott offered her beautiful Rose Meditation, to get the audience into their heart chakra space. mantha learned early that the colors she was seeing around people were auras. During her lifelong research of auras, she has been trained in Reiki, Shamanic Journey, Transformational Bodywork, and Matrix Energetics. As well as being a Reiki Master Teacher, she has been a Chef for 25 years. Samantha incorporates the healing energy of Reiki with her baking to create her Soul Supper Sweets. She is a Professional member of the Reiki Fellowship, The International Association of Reiki Professionals, and an Ordained Reverend of the Universal Life Church.
Featured guest Justice Bartlett, LMP, CHT, engaged the audience with a delightful talk on expanding life and thinking into love. A mother, writer, teacher and healer. In 2011 Justice founded EmBody Me, a company dedicated to heart centered, embodied living. From 2006-2011 Justice taught and presented with Matrix Energetics, Intl. As a seminar co-facilitator, she demonstrated the Matrix principles and techniques developed by her father, Dr. Richard Bartlett. As a Licensed Massage Practitioner, Certified Hypnotherapist and energetic intuitive, Justice uses her unique combination of skills to help people transform patterns that hold them back from living fully, authentically and joyfully!
Fallon and I gave a talk on what we have learned about our ancient past. We talked about the gathering of beings across star systems and multiple dimensions to create a planet of love and connection with all life as equals, how we lost it in multiple asteroid collisions, and how that dropped us into 3D reality and the fear, forgetting, and longing for home that we currently experience. The message from our ancient past is that we are moving into 4D and 5D realities that cross time and dimensional borders, and that we can expand our consciousness by releasing fear and claiming love, by releasing forgetting and remembering our past, and by releasing our longing for home and claiming this planet as our home. The message of love and peace from the ancients was facilitated by The One Gathering participants.
Keny Guzey followed with his uplifting, soulful music, supported by multi-dimensional motion graphics behind The One Gathering altar, which included Fallon, crystals, feathers, and sacred tools. He is a self-taught musician and composer with an exceptional talent for reading and following energy, particularly when it comes to music. As a young musician he realized that he possessed a natural ability to sense what other musicians were going to do next, and that this talent enabled him to add a unique, exciting energy to the mix. Kent also found that he could pick up and play practically any instrument he was interested in, including piano, drums, guitar, and bass. Broadening his horizons, he soon became a certified recording engineer, and as a result also began to create music electronically. Digital music opened a whole new world of possibilities for Kent, and he began composing the dance, down-tempo, chill-out and cinematic music that he continues writing today. He established Soul Tracks, a service through which Kent calls on his innate musical intuition to compose custom tracks for individuals. The success of Soul Tracks has led Kent to discover entirely new avenues of expression for his many talents – in both his solo work and in collaboration with other artists. “Music adds so much depth and emotion to scenes and characters on the big and small screen. I hope that by writing music for people in the “real world” they experience a deeper more appreciative connection with themselves…I know that I do.”
The day ended with the much-anticipated energetic heart chakra attunement to connect mind into heart, allowing ego to serve the higher self. It was led by Jennifer Yost and Justice Bartlett, and echoed around the room with Reiki masters who joined the event.
This was an incredible event, and Fallon and I were honored to participate in it. It’s always wonderful when a group of dedicated, committed people come together to serve each other and the community, especially when it offers the visionary leadership and talent that people like Jennifer Yost, Justice Bartlett, Samantha Parrott, Thomas Brophy, and Kent Guzey offer. And it couldn’t have been done without the Reiki masters who joined in as the attunement team, to help the audience receive the full benefit of this unique energy intensive.
