Articles about us

 

We have met a very nice lady, Susan Hollingshead, who wrote an article about us on her website. We were really surprised about her kind words. Susan herself is travelling over Canada with a big motor home, after she and her husband sold their beautiful house. She is making a journal of all the experiences during their travel. You can read that on the website: http://www.coulsoncastle.ca

Here is what she wrote about us:

Feeling My Soul

While Rick and I were downtown Barrie on Friday, we ran into Valerie Samson (our Reiki Master) and her husband Doug, who we hadn't seen in over a year. After we exchanged excited greetings and caught each other up on our latest news, I looked over and saw two other people that I recognized, Arie and Douwina Maas. I had originally met Arie and Douwina in the fall of 2003 when Val had brought them out to the house at Horseshoe Valley before they emigrated here from Holland. Seeing them in Barrie indicated that they had been successful in their immigration process and I learned that they were now operating a metaphysical business, The Centre of Light . After speaking with them, I just knew that it was imperative that they meet Rosanne and we parted knowing that that day would arrive soon.

That day was today and this morning Rosanne and I joined Arie and Douwina at their place in Barrie where we had an amazing four hours comparing and sharing energy and experiences with them. Arie and Rosanne have very similar healing abilities and while all four of us learned many things, they connected on a different level. Douwina and I were able to observe some very profound events and afterwards we all compared the visions and energies we felt during the process. Rosanne and I parted from The Centre of Light firm in our belief that we had spent the afternoon with two very special people who we will remain good friends with for a long time.

 

September 1st,2005 Today Rosanne and I had a lunch date with our friends, Arie and Douwina Maas             at their new home in Barrie. Arie, like Rosanne, is a spiritual healer and Douwina, his beautiful wife has many of her own gifts; one evidently is cooking. While they both shared with us many things about their spiritual growth, we also enjoyed a wonderful lunch, "Dutch style", a feast fit for royalty. They run a business offering courses and spiritual guidance, among other services and can be reached at The Centre of Light .
