The foreigners of John of God
Abaidainia has a growing community of expats, people from the US, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Aftrica and more. Many live in Abadiania part of the year; some full time. I guess I am one of them myself, since I spend two months of the year in Abadiania. Some […]

John of God-Early January

Late December and early January are good times to be in Abadiania. The crowds are smaller than usual, the meditation times are shorter (around 2 hours each session), and since it is rainy season, everything is green and the clouds break up the heat. If you hate rain, go during the dry season.

Why do I say that? Because Abadiania is changing rapidly. Houses and shops are being built in areas that used to be open fields. Abadiania is still wonderful, but it is losing some of its charm. There are several reasons for the rapid growth and change in Abadiania.

Sunday in Rio de Janeiro

If you are a people (or dog) watcher, be sure to go the beach on Sunday in Rio de Janeiro. Along all the beaches in Rio, there is a 4 lane road with an island in the middle. On Sundays, they close the 2 lanes from the island to the beach, and EVERYDODY walks up […]

Back with John of God

This is my 7th trip to Abadiania. I always spend a few days in Rio de Janeiro (or somewhere in Brazil) FIRST to have a bit of a vacation. While Rio de Janeiro has gotten considerably more expensive in the last 4 years (a combination of rising prices and a falling dollar), it is still […]

Absolutely! It is best to contact the wonderful folks at   http://www.heavenshelp.com/  for help and information.
To quote their website:
 Heaven’s Helpers gives disabled people a unique opportunity to experience the healing powers of John of God (at the Casa de Dom Inacio) by providing warm-hearted, competent, and affordable care in Abadiania, Brazil. Whether you are […]

There is a very special energy in Abadiania, and John of God works with very special energies. I completely recommend the experience; and personally I have benefited from using more than one approach.
There are a number of incredible healers in North America, Europe, and everywhere in the world. I work with a number of healers, […]

 
The event is sponsored and run by a wonderful Casa guide named Peter Waugh. Peter has given me very good advice and consul on several occasions. Peter is a wonderful man, and is very dedicated to making the healings available to more and more people.
 
For lots of information  (on the trip, and on John of […]

There are translators who will help you if you speak don’t speak Portuguese-especially if you speak English (they are some translators who speak at least some German and French, but English is the most used language next to Portuguese). On Casa days (Wednesday-Friday) prior to the beginning of the morning and afternoon sessions, a line […]

 
John of God is usually, but NOT always there. While you would still get powerful healings at the Casa de Dom Inacio, even if he isn’t there, it wouldn’t be the same and it would be very disappointing if you had never been there before.
His schedule is available at http://www.friendsofthecasa.org/NewsAlert.htm. Please check this site before your […]
