Soul Support presents Master Reiki Practitioner Karl Vidt of MCC
July 28, 2008 7:00 - 9:00pm Free Admission
An introduction and overview of Reiki, the Usui System of Natural Healing. The energy of Reiki connects us with the inner sense of wholeness and well being from which physical healing flows. The presentation is informational, covering the history of the tradition, and how the art of Reiki is practiced. This is not a training in the art, however attendees will be provided an opportunity to experience a Reiki treatment.
Location: Billy DeFrank Community Center 938 The Alameda, San Jose, Ca 95126 ~ www.defrank.org
The Soul Support program is a free community service, sponsored by the Billy DeFrank LGBT Community Center.

PWG is hosting a DVD screening of “Women’s Power” and a fundraiser for the Suppressed Histories Archives. “Women’s Power” is an eye-opening documentary about women whose role in history has been either minimized or deleted from standard history books. Since 1970, Max Dashu has researched and photographed images of women in all walks of life such as chiefs, priestesses, medicine women, architects, doctors, warriors, and scientists. She has created and shown this slideshow presentation, which has evolved through out the years, to groups, community centers and Universities. For more information on Suppressed Histories Archives, the DVD and Max Dashu visit www.suppressedhistories.net.
DVD will be available for sale. Tickets: $5-$15, (proceeds go to Suppressed Histories Archives) No one turned away for lack of funds.

Come on out to the “Dykes on Hikes” hike: Thursday July 24, at 6pm. We’ll be meeting at 6pm on Rose/MLK in Berkeley but probably going to Tilden Park from there.
To make finding each other easier, and to facilitating carpooling, we’re going to meet at the corner of Rose and Martin Luther King, by the benches outside of Fatapple’s on Rose Street (which also happens to be right by the Rose Street House of Music House Concerts). It’s right on the 79 bus line, just a couple blocks from a lot of other bus lines, and 1 mile from both the North Berkeley and Berkeley BART stations.
We’ll be meeting there between 6 & 6:15pm. Then driving up to Tilden Park (if you prefer to meet us up there at 6:30pm, please let me know).
Depending on preferences of the “dykes on hikers” who show up, we might go up to the Lone Oak picnic area (from Grizzly/Spruce/Wildcat Canyon intersection, take Canon Drive up, R on Central Park, left into the Lone Oak Road parking lot, past the field to the Lone Oak picnic table).
After the hike, we’ll head over to the Cactus Taqueria on Solano for dinner, or head back to Rose/MLK depending on everyone’s preference.
Please email me at irinarivkin@yahoo.com to let me know you’re coming (please use yahoomaps or another online resource for specific directions from where you are) - it’s good to include a number I can reach you in the email in case there are any changes. If your don’t like to email, it’s cool to call me at 510-857-7562 on Thursday

“Dykes on Hikes” is an informal social & fitness/exercise/recreation hiking group for lesbian & bi womyn. Let’s go hiking in Tilden, Redwood, Joaquin Miller, and other East Bay parks! Pace at 2-3 miles an hour (depends on steepness of hills), hikes range from 2-10 miles. Some hikes may be followed by a picnic potluck or lunch out (TBA). No smoking / perfume / pets on the hikes please.
All hikes are informal, and all hikers take full responsibility for themselves, and accept/assume their own risks, not holding other “dykes on hikers” liable for any injuries, damages, or losses of any kind. Organizers are not responsible for the carpools, and it’s suggested that carpool passengers chip in to cover drivers’ gas (usually just $1 per person for Tilden hikes).
