A Spiritual Healer

People sat on folding chairs in front of a large stage. His soft and gentle voice came over the microphone. "When we unite our heart beats we are at peace....in harmony.... each heart is different, yet beating together.....all united....hearts beating as one."  I found a place to sit to listen to Tony Redhouse as he chatted with the audience, performed Native American dances, did a hoop dance with many hoops, and played a flute. He is known as a spiritual teacher: "Bring all the good that you dream in your life and dissolve whatever is not beneficial to your health and peace of mind."

When he donned on feathers on his head, his arms and back and danced the eagle dance he encouraged everyone "To open your wings.  Be at peace as you fly. Picture yourself sailing through the sky. Soar  effortless." The dance is done slowly to the sound of a flute, and it wasn't hard to picture an eagle in all its glory, gliding through the sky in peace in the clear, blue sky.

He asked for volunteers to come and play some of the instruments on the stage. No one moved. He encouraged the people by saying, "Be like children. Have no fear. Do not be afraid of what people will think of you. Enjoy your life. Participate fully as a child would. Children, before they are taught inhibitions, are free and carefree in what ever they do. A child is a free spirit and we should be also." Still no one moved. "The first five persons who come to the state will get a copy of my relaxing CD!" Eight persons got up and joined him on the stage. He laughed and said, "Bribery seems to work every time!"

"Music from the heart to your soul," is how he describes his relaxing music of flute and drum. He is a professional speaker, a spiritual healer, a hoop dancers (up to 25 story-telling hoops), and he "heals to the beat of a different drum."  At one point he sent a prayer up to the heavens as the smoke of a small fire went up to the heavens.

I  was mesmerized with his music and voice and I am sure at one of his seminars he is able to get people to relax, get positive energy, shake inhibitions and find spiritual truths.
