Vigdis Parkins
During the last 40 years, Vigdis has researched and explored from many different angles the power of the mind and what prevents us living the life we really want to live. The purpose and goal of her course series is to provide a way for you to work yourself through all the obstacles in your life right now and get in touch with who you really are deep inside. Vigdis Parkins retired at the end of January 2022 from her professional work in accounting and marketing but will keep her course and seminar business going.
The impact of imagination on your life.
Does the life you are living resemble who you really are? Ask yourself; Do I live my life just responding to circumstances or do I make conscious plans and choices. This presentation teaches you about the role imagination plays in your daily life, the nature of energy, and how you, by using your power of imagination create a certain frequency and vibration of energy which in turn forms your life and who you are.
Why your goals and dreams don't happen.
You start doubting yourself and feel uneasy and overwhelmed. The many exercises in this presentation about goals and dreams are tailored to help remove the concepts, resistances and fears you might have, even unconsciously, that stop you from reaching and manifesting your goal.
How to empower your life and make positive changes.
We use NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), which is the study of how our minds work, how we interact with it and how it results in certain behaviors to empower your life and make the changes you want.

Liliana Veloso Karlsson
Liliana was born in Argentina, and has been living in Sweden for the past 30 years. Originally a teacher and a translator, she’s been practicing Energy Healing for more than 9 years. After attending seminars and courses she graduated with a certificate as an Emotion Code Practitioner. She uses The Emotion Code, the Body Code System, the Original Energy Code and Affirmations. Through these methods she has seen post-traumatic energies, intolerances, inflammations, depression, fears, hopelessness, panic, etc. disappear.
The Emotion Code and Body Code System are energy healing techniques that help to identify and release the underlying causes of different imbalances in the physical, emotional, mental and in the spiritual body. Once it is free from those blocking energies that were affecting its normal functions, it recovers.
Healing sessions are done in person or through calls, with complete confidentiality.
