I 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 1: caught up with Lisa and Zay from the Ashburton Spiritual 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: groups that are bringing it all together to ask what's 6 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: on the cards? Well, apparently a packed house of forty 7 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: five stall holders. 8 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 2: Reflexology, healing message. We've got so many ancraft people as 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: well and clothing and we've also been lucky enough to 10 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 2: get three international psychic mediums over from Australia coming over. 11 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: Who are they? What can we expect from them? 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: So we've got Linda lu which is a psychic pin 13 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: up now she is also doing an. 14 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: Evening a pinup girl? Is this Rah? 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 3: Yes? 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's doing an evening as well Friday Night. Yes. 17 00:00:54,640 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: We've also got Katrina who's astrology and numerals and Lady 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: d is also a psychic medium. We've got four rooms 19 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: in the Hotel Ashberson. They have been amazing as well. 20 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: And then you can just rock on up to a reader, 21 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: put your name down on the appointment sheet and just 22 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 2: go and cruise all the rest of the stalls and 23 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 2: come back and have your reading, so no one's pre 24 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 2: booked out. It's right there on the spur of the moment. 25 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 3: And the best thing about it is that it's at 26 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 3: a cheaper price. Is where you book the person personally 27 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 3: and privately. I can probably a bit more than what 28 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 3: it would be at the excess. You get a bit 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 3: of a taste there and go, oh, actually I quite 30 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 3: like this person. I want to book them privately later on. Prisingly, 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 3: I'm fairly new to Ashburton and I was very surprised 32 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 3: that we have a huge spiritual following over here. I 33 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: had no idea. Yeah, we really really do. 34 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 2: Like when we. 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 3: First started our first service ever went into we had 36 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 3: fifteen and we're all we're getting up to almost forty 37 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 3: fifty people in our services every third Sunday of the 38 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: month now, so it's just blown away. 39 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: What do you think that is? 40 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 3: Well, I don't actually know the answer to that, but 41 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: to be fair, we have a lot of farmer wives 42 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: and they're more in the elderly generation, so I think 43 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 3: maybe back in that generation it was very forbidden and 44 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 3: very unspoken about. So now they have that freedom and 45 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 3: not the fear of being marketed like a crazy, crazy 46 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 3: woman so I think as time has gone by, people 47 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 3: have become more comfortable and more aware, and it is 48 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 3: really good to give people some clarity, some peace, to 49 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 3: know that their loved ones and spirit are okay, they're 50 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: doing okay. But also it's about us. 51 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 2: We seem to be not taking on a lot of 52 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: other people's dramas. We're tuning inwards and we're looking at 53 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: ourselves and you know what we can do to make 54 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 2: to better us. 55 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 3: And so our services are not just like a reader 56 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: coming in and doing a psychic reading or a meditation. 57 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 3: It's it's about teaching the group of people that have 58 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: made the time to come and learn about themselves. We 59 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 3: have workshops on self empowerment, betterment, just so many different things. 60 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 3: Like we've got a full year packed full of workshops. 61 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 3: So we're not just in there on a Sunday and 62 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 3: out to go where we're about getting the community involved 63 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 3: about yoga, meditation, healing, all sorts, even crafts who even 64 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 3: just talking about candle making workshops. So it can have 65 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: a variety of different people that don't necessarily have to 66 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: believe or think about the spiritual side. 67 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty cool. It's all to be discovered at the 68 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: mind's Body and Soul Exposed, set today, Hotel Ashburton from 69 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: Tental four
