Intro to Ghost and Spirit Energies
Do you believe in spirits and the paranormal?  This introductory class will familiarize you with the technical difference between a ghost and a spirit, the reasons why we feel energies we cannot necessarily “see”, the concepts of the spirit world and the paranormal and most important: the techniques of self-protection to keep you safe, balanced and in harmony with Spirit.

Sauk Centre will be one of several Minnesota locations featured in the new public television series Simple Living with Wanda Urbanska.

Simple Living is described as an offbeat, humorous and sometimes wacky show. Urbanska and her writer/director husband Frank Levering offer easy-to-follow antidotes to modern ways. The couple tackles lifestyle issues around questions of environmental stewardship, thoughtful consumption, community involvement and financial responsibility.
According to Levering, Sauk Centre is featured for four minutes, 15 seconds of the 27-minute telecast. Levering said the crew shot footage of Main Street, and interviewed Herald publisher Dave Simpkins and his wife, Linda Simpkins. The crew also interviewed Roberta Olson at the Sinclair Lewis boyhood home.

Levering said Sauk Centre was the ideal choice for a story on small town living and how it pertains to the show’s premise of living a simple life. He said Sinclair Lewis’ take on small town life in Main Street differs from the way people view it today.
“We think the perception of small town living has changed dramatically,” Levering said. “Nowadays there is a very positive image of living in a small town.”

The filming took place about a year ago, Levering said.

“It was a cold day, but we had a wonderful time in Sauk Centre,” he said.

Levering said the show will air in 70 percent of households nationwide.

“It will be very widely seen by thousands of people,” he said.

Urbanska and Levering challenge viewers to make simple changes in their own lives that address big-picture social concerns. The pair have written a guide to moving to a small town. They both halted fast-paced careers in Los Angeles to move to Urbanska’s hometown of Mount Airy, NC.
