How to Consult The I Ching, Book of Changes
A talk by David Roden, Clinical Hypnotherapist | Coach | Mentor

David's talk will inform us about
•The History of The Oracle
•The Three Coins Method
•The Type of Questions to Ask
•How Io interpret the Responses

As a Clinical Hypnotherapist, astrologer, seasoned meditator, and lifelong student of the I Ching, the Book of Changes, I have spent more than thirty years building a personal archive of dreams and developing a deep practice of dream observation and interpretation. For every dream recorded, I have consulted the I Ching for insight and guidance, weaving its ancient wisdom into my understanding of the dreaming mind.

My work approaches dream not simply as nighttime imagery, but as meaningful psychological and symbolic communications—messages that can illuminate personal growth, emotional balance, and life direction. Together, these traditions inform my approach to the symbolic language of the unconscious and have enabled me to guide others in uncovering the deeper meanings within their own dreams.
I am currently developing an adult sleep and narrative podcast for people who struggle with sleep. Drawing on my dream archive, these recordings are crafted to create a reflective, immersive listening experience that invites rest and recovery.

Alongside this contemplative work, I offer career transition coaching, leadership development, and change management consultancy. My tailored coaching and mentoring services range from executive coaching and work–life balance guidance to international mentoring programmes. In all of this, my aim is the same: to help clients navigate transitions, integrate personal insight, and achieve meaningful, lasting growth.

Venessa also explained how "CST" is non-invasive and relaxing working deeply to help relieve trauma and/or stress in the body which may be mental, emotional and/or physical in origin. Through describing some case studies CST was shown to provide relief and support for a wide variety of reasons, or simply enjoyed for de-stressing and deep relaxation.

Evelyn Brodie
Shamanic healing from the Andean lineage and the use of Spirit in the work.

In the 21st Century, there have been enormous advances in medicine and science and the study of consciousness. Idealism, the concept that Consciousness is fundamental, a concept that was abolished to the realms of metaphysics for centuries, is now firmly back on the scientific agenda. The perennial philosophy is alive and thriving! Evelyn demonstrated her purpose as being a bridge between the world of modern science/medicine and the ancient healing practices of the indigenous peoples around the world. What they knew and the healing they have offered for centuries is not hippy, new age, bull... it is being rediscovered at the cutting edge of neuroscience and post quantum physics. In that process Evelyn hopes not to engage in cultural misappropriation. She is a shamanic practitioner, not a shaman.

Oliver Dolby
Etheric Trauma Release Method: Unresolved Trauma's Impact on the Energy Body and Physical Health

Oliver Dolby, known as The Soul Doctor, is an energy healer, teacher and facilitator with over 25 years’ experience working with trauma, emotional regulation and the subtle anatomy. He specialises in Etheric Trauma Release Method (ETRM), a clinical approach examining how shock, stress, and unresolved emotions imprint the etheric body and nervous system, often resulting in persistent physical and psychological symptoms.

In this talk, Oliver explored how trauma is held beyond the mind, becoming embedded in the energy field that underpins the physical body. Drawing on clinical observations from hundreds of one-to-one sessions, he outlined how disturbances in the etheric body can influence muscular tension, chronic pain patterns, fatigue, anxiety and stress-related conditions. He also gave us insight as to why addressing trauma solely at a cognitive or emotional level may be insufficient for full resolution.

Noncontact Spiritual Healing: A Randomised Controlled Trial
Talk by Prof. Chris Roe


Rudolph Steiner House
35 Park Rd, London NW1 6XT

There is a growing interest in complementary and alternative approaches to fostering health and wellbeing. These often draw on holistic, psycho-socio-spiritual models of health. Evidence from clinical trials suggests that some of these healing approaches can be effective, and there is growing interest in biofield understandings of wellness. However, this work does not yet reflect the central role of healing in Spiritualism; indeed, it tends to give a distorted view of what Spiritualism entails. Much of the work conducted to date is qualitative and observational, and there have been only a small number of formal experiments. The project described in this presentation addressed this omission, involving as it does s a randomised controlled trial that tests for non-contact healing effects.
