Family owned & operated Icecream & Frozen Yoghurt Manufacturers. BACKGROUND Roscos Ice Cream has been successfully operating since 1998 and has grown locally to 70 sited freezers, ranging from Newcastle to Port Macquarie. Our plant is based in the small town of Coolongolook, on the Pacific Hwy. We currently wholesale to large service station retailers such as Metro Petroleum & Caltex Energy. We also service smaller businesses such as General Stores, Take-Aways & Caravan Parks etc. Our latest survey indicated that 1 in 3 people recognised & have tasted Roscos Ice-creams on the Mid North Coast and the feedback was extremely positive. FAMILY BUSINESS Roscos was originally founded in 1998 by a Coolongolook man Ross Fletcher, thus the name Roscos. He started from very humble beginings, manually filling small cups & cones of quality ice cream and wholesaleing to nearby retail outlets. In 2003 Ross decided to sell his business, which included a family home & very, very, small factory all set on 1.7 lovely acres, in the small village of Coolongolook (Mid North Coast of NSW). In 2003 Steve, Monica & their 3mnth year old son Byron purchased the package on a wing & prayer, throwing in their secure 9-5 jobs. Initially, it was extremely hard, working long hours, growing the business, re-investing all profits into upgrading run down old plant & equipment, plus paying the bills. Four years on, to today, Steve & Monica added a beautiful little girl(Brianna), to their family. Also... continue to grow thier successful business despite continuos set backs and harrasment by multinational competitors. Steve & Monica are now looking to the next phase of their business plan which is entering the super premium ice cream game and potentially franchising. Most importantly their plan includes quality time with family and a good overall balance.

llum-Innate REIKI - ENERGY HEALING Reiki is a Japanese word meaning Universal �Life Force� energy. The �Rei�meaning universal, the �Ki� meaning Life Force. Life force flows within the physical body on pathways called Chakras, Meridans and Nadis. It also flows around us in a field of energy called the Aura. When our life force is out of balance it can cause disharmony within the organs and tissues of the body. This can be caused by lower dense energies normally in the form of fear, stress, anxiety, anger, depression etc causing a disruption in the flow of energy due to not vibrating in a higher positive energy. These lower energies cause blockages in and around the body diminishing the health of organs and cells of the physical body Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field clearing and charging with positive energy. It is a form of hands on healing and is a gentle non intrusive touch therapy, bringing wholeness to both the receiver and the giver. It restores the the body back into a natural balance enhancing your health and well being. Reiki can assist with: Deep relaxation, releasing of stress, depression, anxiety, anger, headaches, migraines, body pain, inflammation, emotional cleansing and balancing, removing energy blocks, immune system, spiritual growth, intuition, opening your third eye, complimenting medical treatments, helping with side effects, speeds up recovery, bringing harmony and balance back to the mind, body and spirit. Clients report feeling tingling, heat, electric energy, heightened state, peace, calm, relief/release from heavy energy, pain reduction, complete relaxation and spiritual enhancement ENERGY Energy is what we are made of as with everything around us. What presents in our daily lives is energy. Our reality is our energy and how we perceive life is what will surround us until we come to the realisation that something needs to be changed, shifting the energy into the new reality. As we go through life pending on what scenario is playing out, we resonate in the emotional energy of what we are feeling/living/doing. This leaves energy/vibrational patterns around us. So when we are in our home, at work or even in the car, will normally vibrate to what we have put out, sticking to the walls giving the feeling of density or lightness. Its not just in our homes, it can also be held within the land, the clothes we wear, your phone, the office space, hospitals & operating rooms. HOUSE CLEARING When calling us in for a house clearing we are able to clear your home from any heavy dense energies that may of collected over time. This can come about through dense heavy emotions such as anger, stress, anxiousness, depression, sickness or death. Removing all human imprints and negative trapped energies from your home. This can stop the flow of positive, healthy, abundant energy from flowing through your home effecting your day to day life. There are energy imprints but there are also other energies that can surround you. Ghosts and Entities can also take up residency within your home which can take the energy to a whole new level. NEGATIVE ENTITIES - GHOSTS We will normally have a good hunch that there could be a presence within the home. Some of the signs are the room being cold, the energy feeling different within the room, items being moved, seeing shadows or the energy itself. Ghost can be a passed owner of the house or could just be someone that was attracted to your light, needing help with finding their way home� and sometimes we can have the not so nice ghost who is not happy and could be giving you some grief. Ghosts can also attach to a person who has been in hospital for surgery, who is suicidal, drug addicted or in any deep negative state normally. Entities are normally brought through when someone is in a negative state, very angry, drug usage and usually being in a dark space, attracting this energy to them and bringing it into manifestation. They can also be attracted to people who are in a low energy whether it is depression, mental health or are suicidal for example. Entities can be within the home or actually attached to the person. This may sound scary but it can be removed and eradicated. Once the space is cleared you instantly feel a freshness in the air, feeling lighter, flowing and good positive vibes being brought back into your home. House clearing removes human imprints, all negative or trapped energies, clearing home disruptions, unusual activity, negative entities and Ghosts bringing the space back into its harmonious alignment. If you are interested in any of my services please email or message me with any details you require and I will get back to you within the day. Many Blessings Cath Deudney
