When news that David Ashworth was bringing the highly successful Being in the Light Workshops to Germany, tickets sold like hot cakes.

If you didnt get a ticket this time, our apologies, but you will be glad to hear that David Ashworth and the Emerald Heart will be returning to Germany in the near future.


Yvonne Hrdy, Emerald Heart Practitioner and Host of the Being in the Light sessions in Munich, shares with us her experiences during these wonderful events.

The Emerald Heart in the ‘Cosmopolitan city with heart’ Munich

I wake up at an unusual time, 4.30 in the morning, just before the break of dawn where the day lies still ahead of us, full of opportunities. The birds in front of my window have already started their concert to welcome the new day and celebrate life. My heart is rejoicing in this many-voiced symphony and I feel at one with the world around me whilst feeling how the Light and the energy pulsate through my cells.

A weekend with two Being in the Light sessions in Munich are behind us and I feel grateful for the opportunity to bring people into this sacred space that Dave, the original channel of the Emerald Heart Light, offered at his first trip to Germany. Dave was accompanied by Tim Dyson, fellow Emerald Heart Practitioner from London and a Chi Gong Energy Master. Even though this event was set up with only one month lead time we were fully booked. As well as  people from Munich and other parts of Germany we had the pleasure to welcome spiritual seekers coming from the Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and Spain and I know they will be rewarded by the Light for the effort they made and the commitment they were showing.

As always, the groups were pretty much mixed, from experienced energy workers to people with ‘non-spiritual’ professions and beginners on their paths, the whole range from students and experienced clients to those being in first contact ever with this light. Some did not even know what they were doing there, they just knew they had to come and were open for the experience.

Sometimes people contact me and have concerns as they do not have what you might call spiritual experience or practice, so they feel shy to come. Let me assure you: you don’t have to. The Emerald Heart Path is not about learning complicated concepts and having to conduct a certain given spiritual programme every day. Sometimes a long list of techniques and knowledge might even be a hindrance as it can create a lot of false ego-identification. This is very practical spirituality with a lot of common-sense where we learn to listen to our heart and the guidance from within. The only thing you need is the courage to make the first step if you feel called to and have a desire to find your own inner truth. And sometimes a little courage to be able to look at the things we tend to avoid out of fear.

These events were designed as introductory sessions and their main purpose is to allow people to step into this Light and experience it first hand. Dave shared some of his story and his development from being a business man to becoming a highly successful healer to go beyond healing and become the carrier for this Light and that when he speaks it is actually the Guidance of this Light speaking through him. Even though I have heard it many times now my heart always opens a bit more and it is obvious why it is him who carries this Light, being so down-to-earth, humble but courageous at the same time, authentic, truthful and in service to humanity by sharing and passing on what he has discovered for himself so that others can walk the same path if they desire to. Dave’s bottom line message: “If I can do it, you can do it, too.” It is the ordinary people who bring about change in the world, every one of you has the potential to make a difference.

In a guided meditation people were then invited to feel the Light and allow it to penetrate them. This usually brings a lot of peace for the mind and you start to feel very calm inside and it starts to open your heart and most people could feel this right from the beginning and the tears started to flow as the Light touched their hearts.

The Emerald Heart Path however is also an active path which means you have to take the initiative and address the areas where you feel stuck in your life or you feel you want a change. So we did some group work on personal issues as through the power of sharing each heart opens more and activates a Universal Law, the Law of Reflection, the first step to bring about change. Based on these findings Dave then took the time to work with everybody individually and it is always rewarding to witness the clarity with which the Guidance comes through. No fussing around, pinpointed and sometimes also straight forward, which might raise temporary anger in oneself if it is something you might not have looked at or what your ego, your artificial self does not like to hear. But the anger is just a normal human process of self defence. So everybody left with an essence programmed for each individual need – the tool or vehicle to bring more Light into everybody’s system to facilitate the changes needed.

Those who have been clients before knew the process but I am always delighted to hear feedback from newcomers and more often than not they experience immediate change.

Meanwhile a few days have passed and I have been receiving some wonderful feedback.. One woman said: “Wow, my negativity suddenly was gone, nothing has changed on the outside, but now the sun shines bright again.” Another one stated: “I could feel immediately how my whole body relaxed and tension left my system.” A third typical statement I received a few days later: “First I could not relate to the fear I had been given but suddenly I could literally see it and what I was doing to myself and how this fear had governed my life.”  A little at a time, the Light brings the fear to the surface so that you can see what Dave has shared with you of your own inner truth and the Light then begins to dissolve the fear within you, setting you free from this limitation, so it empowers you to bring about the change you want in order to move forward with easiness and grace.

Both sessions were closed with the Being in the Light part itself and even though it might take a few sessions to experience the total separation of the mind from your heart and your body – which eventually enables you to become again the Master of yourself and let go of the slavery of your mind – I had the impression that almost everybody experienced it to a certain degree.

All in all it was beautiful to watch how within 3-4 hours the hearts of this beautiful group of souls who came together here in Munich opened, everybody softened and everybody’s eyes radiated with a new glow. Somebody told me at the end that this session felt like a whole weekend and this was my own feeling too. I very much look forward to the next event to deepen the process.

I would like to thank those of you who previously had the courage to step into this Light in order to work with me on individual consultations and Programs, for without you this event would not have been possible. I would also like to thank those who had the courage to step into this Light for the first time. If you feel you want to continue and go deeper to unlock those fears that are hidden within you and move forward, living up to your full potential, you know where to find me for Gatherings or Consultations. Last but not least, I would like to thank my dear friends, Alex and Sephora, companions for many years who have decided lately to deepen their path with the Emerald Heart Light through Hosting Emerald Heart Gatherings themselves. Thanks for your background support to enable a smooth organisation of these events.

Let me finish now with some last feedback from participants:

“Your authenticity touched me deeply, all felt so truthful and this enables trust”.

“You are for me what a true spiritual person is about.”

“In a very unspectacular manner this was absolutely spectacular. No show, no big stuff but absolutely truthful, deep, heart-opening and fun.”
