MY FIRST ART SHOW
JENNIS NEWS
TANTRIC YOGA TRAINING
'WHY IS LIFE' - ONLY $6
Greetings Dear Friends

Jennis is back from our western tour. It was very successful, we played some great festivals and gigs, met some amazing people and filled up our beauty banks with some awesome scenery. We got to witness some of the wildfires plaguing BC - very spooky. Thanx to all the organizers and hosts who helped with bookings and accommodations, etc.

I'm quite excited about the first showing of my paintings, and some of the musical events happening this month. See the details below.

It's been such a busy time that I did not prepare a wee essay this time around. Sorry. I'll get back on track for next month's newsletter.

If you'd like to access past newsletters containing articles on the Big Shift, the Physics of Mysticism, Magic, the Power of Mantra, Conciousness and other topics, please visit the 'newsletter' page of my website:

Peace and love, Dennis.
