An Evening with VINNY NARR, PPM
(Physical Psychic Medium)
7:00 - 9:00 p.m. $50.00. Limited Seating
The Elysian Room Creative Studio proudly welcomes, well... How does one describe Vinny?
Vinny grew up in Sicily and realized at a young age he was being "followed" by the spirit of a buffalo wearing a man's face.
As a young man he was brave enough to mention this to a few Native American's he met on a military
base in Europe, who encouraged him to seek counsel and advice on the Rosebud Native American Reservation in South Dakota.
It was there that he learned of his true spiritual gifts and opened himself for the Spirit realm.
Vinny uplifts and keeps Native American, (Lakota) teachings, language and ceremonies alive, and has
learned that he also shares blood with a Siberian Shaman, his maternal great, great uncle.
Come sit for a lovely talk that truly shows how we are all connected, both on the earth plane and in the Spirit world.

Package #6: ($35/person):

What in the world is a "sound bath" & "cacao ceremony"..?!?
~ A Sound Bath is a meditative experience where those in attendance are "bathed" in soothing, healing sound waves
from a multitude of instruments, including singing bowls, chimes, gongs, tuning forks and
other percussion-types of instruments. It is meant to de-ruffle the aura and soul; it's beautifully relaxing,
serene, grounding and allows you to sink into a deep, meditative state.
~ A Cacao Ceremony is *not* an opportunity to come drink hot cocoa! lol...
A Cacao Ceremony is an ancient, sacred ritual that honors the elements and spirits of nature.
It creates a harmonious matrix with all living beings and is an expression of gratitude for life itself.
Kitty traveled to South America to learn and uplift the beautiful women
who keep this ceremony of grace and gratitude alive.
~ The session will begin with a little music to relax, and then the cacao ceremony in which you will be offered
a warmed cup of cacao, (and several blended spices), followed by Kitty guiding us in the Sound Bath.
It's a truly beautiful and unique way to welcome in our returning Summer and the beauty she has to offer.
~ Kitty has dedicated herself to music all her life and studied in South America
to learn and honor the Cacao traditions of gratitude.
What she presents is profound and truly unique in Western NY!
~ There is an event savings by increasing your reservations for more services and ceremonies!
*** All packages must be purchased prior to the event for time scheduling. No refunds. ***

Spiritualism and facilitated healing modalities since he was a teenager.
He has honed his craft and his gift and is always looking to "raise the bar."

manifestations, (including levitations of participants {myself & another!!!}).

Well... it just got better and better with more and more fun!

PSYCHIC-MEDIUMSHIP 101 w/ Colleen:
9:00 a.m. - 3:30/4:00 p.m. $225- includes 70+ page workbook
This class is designed for anyone who's either had experiences with the paranormal, (anything outside
the boundaries of "normal") or anyone who is interested in the paranormal or working with entities and energies.
We will review basic terminology you should know if working in this arena, and give discussion, thought and
consideration on how to respectfully work with the paranormal plane. We will also discuss the
liability you incur on both the energetic and physical plane, legal parameters, (... not many know that there are
laws in NYS regarding the practice of mediumship!), how to effectively engage with and clear energies and the
responsibility you incur when choosing to practice psychic-mediumship and deliver messages, (even to friends and family).
The class will be taught within The Elysian Room Creative Studio.
Please reserve by Wednesday, June 01 so that the correct number of workbooks can be printed.
Colleen is the owner of Great Lakes Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork Practitioners since 1998.
She is also an ordained minister, practicing certified psychic-medium, instructor, writer and continues
to further her knowledge by participating in classes and trainings. In addition to her very healthy bodywork practice,
she launched The Elysian Room Creative Studio to host, facilitate and uplift other
truly incredible Psychic-Mediums, allowing them to share their incredible gifts.

~ SEPTEMBER, 2022: ~
*** Premiere Event! ***
Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday,
September 15 - 18th 2022:
Rev. MYCHAEL SHANE, PMPM
(Physical-Mental Psychic Medium)
The Elysian Room Creative Studio joyously welcomes back my friend and teacher, Physical-Mental Psychic Medium
Rev. Mychael Shane! I was incredibly honored and excited to bring this extraordinary man to Buffalo
for the very first time this past December to allow him to share his talents and gifts with the WNY community.
Mychael's words and presented physical phenomena evidence from the spirit plane is proof of their
connection, love and supported inspiration for us all!
Limited seating; paid reservations required for all events.
Details are still being planned and may change, grow and evolve,
but here is our scheduled intention, thus-far:
Thursday, September 15: Lighted event.
7:00 - 9:30 p.m.: Triple-Blindfolded Billet Readings w/
Apportations & Gifted Mini Messages:
($110/person)
Mychael will *blow our collective minds* by allowing himself to be blindfolded not once, not twice, but layered three-times
by an audience member. Once blindfolded and we are assured he cannot see, he will be handed
the basket of collected billets, (see definition below). He will blindly select a billet, one-by-one, and energetically "read" first
the number on one side, then he'll give an answer to the participant's question, (...which we will not know; only the person
who wrote it knows what they asked!). Once the answer is given, he will pass the card to his assistant/facilitator
who will read the printed asked question. His accuracy in both energetically detecting the written number
and giving a meaningful answer is nothing short of astounding. You will *never* see another modern-day
psychic medium duplicate this event. It is beyond entertaining! Advanced reservations required.
Friday, September 16:
7:00 - 9:30/10:00 p.m.: Q & A Seance w/ the Ascended Masters w/
Possible Apportations:
($110/person)
What question plagues you? What have you always wondered and have not found an answer?
Are your pets in heaven? Can your loved ones really hear your prayers? What's the name of one of your Spirit Guides?
How can you better serve not only Spirit, but also mankind? What is your purpose?
THIS is your opportunity to ask *any* question or for divine guidance. An Ascended Master will manifest in-voice,
possibly several, and you will be awe-struck and humbled by their incredibly love and divinity.
At the end of the seance, Mychael will apport in the light for all to witness and receive gifted gems infused
with energy and mini messages from an Ascended Master/s.
(Note: All seances are done in the dark. Participants must be comfortable for sitting ~2 hours in total dark,
{Mychael's Spirit team may allow some lighting to occur during the seance, but it's not a guarantee...}).
Protocols will be required for the evidential legitimacy and safety of the Medium.
Saturday, September 17: Lighted event.
7:00 - 9:30 p.m.: Triple-Blindfolded Billet Readings w/
Apportations & Gifted Mini Messages:
($110/person)
A repeat of Thursday's event above.
Please see the description/information. Advanced reservations required.
Sunday, September 18:
Time TBD: Q & A Seance w/ the Archangels w/
Possible Apportations:
($110/person)
A repeat of Friday's event above, only with questions being directed to the Archangels for answers.
I sat in on one of Mychael's Archangel Seances last Fall. You could *feel* that movement of the air as the angels
entered into the seance room, and you suddenly knew you were seated in the presence of
something much larger than mankind. "Awe-invoking," "humbling," and "tangible-divinity" do not accurately describe
the feelings all the sitters incredulously and joyfully experienced.
This event will sell out quickly due to the sheer magnitude of what will step forward in love.
Please see the description/information. Advanced reservations required.
(Note: All seances are done in the dark. Participants must be comfortable for sitting ~2 hours in total dark,
{Mychael's Spirit team may allow some lighting to occur during the seance, but it's not a guarantee...}).
Protocols will be required for the evidential legitimacy and safety of the Medium.
We are working to offer more events over this 4-day extravaganza!
Mychael can facilitate private group/family seances and sessions.
Please contact Colleen for more information or contact our office for information on how to register.
(716) 725-0264 Limited seating.
"Billet," "Apport/Apportation" & "Seance" definitions follow.
*****************************************
Billet:
A facilitator once told me a "billet is a little love-letter to Spirit" and that definition has always stuck.
That's exactly what it is. A "billet" is when a question is written onto a card, and then the Psychic-Medium
provides an answer to the question *without* the ability to see/read the card.
Rev. Mychael's Billet Readings are ASTOUNDING!
Evidential, unduplicable and not-to-be-missed!
Apport / Apportation/s:
An apport is a physical item that is moved/transported from one location to another by energetic
presence or intention, (no physical touch).
"Beam me up, Scotty!" Right? How many people know those words from the original Star Trek? Captain Jim and
his crew would step onto their teleporter and apport from one location to another by "de-atomizing" and "re-atomizing."
In the world of mediumship, apporting is the same thing, in theory, only with a more profound message.
Some physical-phenomenon Psychic Mediums are gifted with the ability to harness energy, (and all physical matter
around us is, in fact, created by energy and the movement of atoms), and move it from one place to another.
In doing so with the assistance of Energetic Entities, (Spirits/Ascended Masters/Etc), they are able to produce tangible evidence.
Prior to apporting, the Mediums will ask members of the audience who DO NOT KNOW THEM to inspect their
person via pat-down, inspect their chair and the area surrounding them to ascertain and be assured that no
slight-of-hand, trickery, misdeed or fraudulent event is occurring nor "planted" item is being produced.
Sometime Mediums apport in the light, others do so in the dark, (during seances, etc).
Seances:
For the most part, all seances are done in completely darkened rooms.
Depending on the Medium, there may be moments of dimmed lighting allowed in a controlled fashion for safety.
Seance participants must be comfortable sitting in close proximity in complete darkness for 90-minutes (or more)
while energetic energies come in and interact with participants.
Safety protocols, including locked suite doors are enforced for evidential validation, authenticity and security.
All participants will be wanded/searched; no jewelry, shoes or electronics of any type are allowed into a seance.
NO ONE is able to register or attend a seance without speaking directly with Colleen first.
All event sales are final and non-refundable, (unless the event cancels).
Your *paid* reservation guarantees your spot at any event.
