Heather Williams: Connecting With Our Innate Self

Sunday Meeting of October 20, 2024

It is time for all of us to learn about our INNATE SELF. It is the part of us that lives constantly within us all - through all the different changes that we experience. HEY! What is our INNATE SELF?  Well, if you look up the word "INNATE" you find the words: Native, Inborn and Inherent - which also mean Essential and Intrinsic or basic and necessary. Our INNATE SELF is the Source of our creativity.

Heather became a Mentor in The Prosperos School of Ontology in 1978. She has taught the Prosperos classes (Translation® and Releasing the Hidden Splendour™) for many years in many different cities.
