JIM GILKESON – Three Lost Worlds

Harbin Hot Springs Retreat Center. The Holy Order of MANS. Jim Gilkeson explores these spiritual communities in his book Three Lost Worlds: A Memoir of Life Among Mystics, Healers, and Life Artists. Learn about these groups —some bordering on cult — and why the author left each. Gilkeson, a master energy work teacher and practitioner, shares his experiences from the early years of bodywork in California, Germany, Denmark, and more. As Gilkeson’s previous books have become essential guidebooks for the energy healing classes that are now standard fare in schools of massage, this event will offer a fascinating look at the evolution of principles that have led to techniques such as Reiki, Polarity Therapy, and others, including Gilkeson’s own method, “Touchworks.”
