Soniyaa Punjabi has a great story and is living the turn around!As many of us are now beginning to realize, our circumstances are merely a reflection of our inner selves; we constantly search for introspective means of understanding our existence in relation to life's challenging issues.
People want to manage stress, increase energy, live naturally, and be healthier. As a result, there is a paradigm shift from the external to the internal taking place. This process does not call for a complete redirection, but more of a sharing of our attention of the outer with the inner, to create a space of balance and harmony.
Once we become aware that, at some level, we are fully responsible for creating the imbalance we experience, be it in health, career or relationships, we have the power to change it!
The process of healing then becomes very simple and can easily be achieved through a "holistic approach" involving treating the person as a whole - body, mind and spirit - which have life-transforming benefits that can be experienced first hand.
Illuminations began with the sole purpose of providing unique opportunities for people to experience their unlimited potential and empower them to positively release stress and imbalance.
Through science, psychology and philosophy, we introduce tools and techniques with the intention of giving you a spiritual experience applicable to everyday life situations. You may then come to realize that spirituality is not just new age jargon, designed to make people feel good temporarily.
As you head towards a fulfilling transformation, we welcome you on a journey of self-discovery with Illuminations, where you will begin to understand that…."Your experience is your greatest teacher, your guide is your inner voice, and your only true nature is love."
Mission
Our mission is to reach out to individuals from all walks of life and spread awareness on the power of the self, mind and consciousness, thereby facilitating a rise in human consciousness.
Vision
Our vision is of a world where empowered individuals have the wisdom to transform their lives in a way that allows them to resonate with their highest potential.

Else and Andalene join me to talk about parenting.
At Baby Angels mom and baby classes you will spend focused, quality time with your baby while learning how to stimulate their development.
You will learn how to lay important foundations for your baby’s sensory-motor skills necessary for future learning. This will involve various activities including tactile stimulation, creative/messy play, fine & gross motor stimulation as well as music & movement. Mom’s will also get the opportunity to socialize during tea time when the babies play together.
Every week you will get great ideas of fun and stimulating activities to enjoy with your baby at home. Dad’s are also very welcome to attend Baby Angels classes.
The class commences with the babies sitting in a tactile ‘pool’ with bare legs/tummy for tactile stimulation, expanding your baby’s sensory awareness
This is followed by warm-up exercises and parachute time. The movement activities achieve two main goals:
*
To strengthen muscles required for crawling, walking and balancing
*
To provide stimulation for your baby’s vestibular system. Movements like spinning, rocking, swinging and bouncing all integrate the brain, inner ear, eyes and various muscles to work towards gaining balance.
A series of fun activity stations are provided which will stimulate your baby while providing you with information regarding their physical and intellectual development.
This includes a creative tactile activity – using ‘messy play’ to introduce different textures and ‘touch’ experiences.
Tea time is an opportunity for mom’s to chat while the babies spend time discovering each other.
This class incorporates focused activities, music and movement, various tactile experiences and creative play which helps to lay the foundation for the development of further cognitive perceptual and motor skills. Baby gets mom’s full attention whilst developing their own attention span. Babies also get the opportunity for independent play at the Favourite Things play area and during Tea Time, where mom’s get to socialise too! The program is structured, aimed at improving your baby’s concentration and fine motor skills, giving mom’s ideas of things to do with their wobblers at home. It’s a great opportunity to spend quality time with mom in a social environment.
During Music Time – moms and babies learn songs and actions together that are chosen specifically to:
* enhance tactile input from mom
* help develop a good sense of rhythm
* sharpen baby’s interest in sound
* stimulate language development
* learn by ‘doing’
* be lots of fun!
The babies will also have an opportunity to ‘play’ various instruments and move to the rhythm by jumping, rocking and patting etc.
We conclude the class with every Wobblers favourite – STORY TIME!
