ORPHAN HEART SEMINAR

The “Orphan Heart” is one where a person feels they lack a place in their father’s (and, in some cases, their mother’s) heart where they can feel safe, secure, significant, loved, valued and affirmed.

An “Orphan Heart” is a conscious and sub-conscious reflection of our thoughts, desires, experiences and perceptions. This often leads to a deep sense of emptiness, loneliness and feeling disconnected.

Come and learn how someone can develop an Orphan Heart, how people may act from an Orphan Heart, and how healing and restoration can take place.

For any queries, you may contact 8121 9490.
