Dear friends around the world,

Especially you rocking guys in the New York, New Jersey & Connecticut area,

It is the last day of my three weeks stay in the New York area, I’m just about to take a cab to the airport.  What a gift to participate in a workshop with Ariel & Shya, a couple of Monday Night Alive and a radio show pre-recording that was completely life changing for me as it opened totally new possibilities of keeping word with myself.  I feel more empowered than ever to be the author of my life.

I can honestly say that I’m not the woman that came here three weeks ago. I had the most amazing time, a wonderful dip into language, culture and TRANSFORMATION. (more…)

Hello to everyone in the transformation community!

I love transformation and I would like to tell you what happened tonight to me.

I went to the choir practice for the first time after the summer break and I knew that we would sing a piece of music in which I have a solo part.  During the summer break I didn’t rehearse a lot so I got worried while sitting there; I heard my voice in my head freaking out and telling me how bad I was for not practicing and how embarrassing it will be.  Then I realized that I just didn’t rehearse and that’s it.  It doesn’t help when I bash myself.  I thought, “Ok I just gonna sing it and see which parts I will know, which parts I don’t know and how embarrassed I will be, like a study.”  Suddenly I relaxed and got back to singing along with the other choir members in another piece.  After some time “my” piece was on and I just sang and it was amazing. Just because I was there, listened to the others and got interested in what was going on – I was really there – the notes where there too and I had so much joy from the music and my study!

It is so wonderful to be where you are and how you are!

Dear Ariel and Shya and all of you thank you so much for the gift of transformation!

Let’s share this great gift! It is just amazing!

With lots of Love,
Corinne

Hello Everyone,

My life has been on fire since taking the Creativity & Intuition workshop this past weekend.  On Tuesday, I went to lunch with my parents, sister, and 4-month-old nephew for my birthday.  We chose one of my family’s restaurants.  Upon sitting down to eat, the manager of the restaurant came over to our table, greeted us, and then started to complain and vent to my mother about all the things that were wrong with the restaurant and the customers in the neighborhood.  I immediately resisted her complaints – everyone at the table resisted her complaints.  But quickly I saw that I was resisting, and relaxed.  I listened to the manager’s complaints as if they were the only thing going on in the world at that time.  In fact, they were.

Hello everyone!

We just have to share how incredible the workshop in Cambridge was, and how much Transformation we are experiencing all around us since we got back to the States.

First of all, there was such a flow to our whole trip in the UK- we got there the Monday before the workshop and stayed until the Monday after. Though we came there with some ideas of what we wanted to do and see with our dear hosts/friends Menna and Artur, each day just unfolded so smoothly and effortlessly. Everything was perfect, whether it was going out and about, or relaxing and chatting at their home. We had the experience of simply looking and seeing what our truth was in each moment. We were just being, rather than doing, and it was so sweet!

Dear friends,

I had noooooo idea…..about the degree to which my upsets where running my life. Not the least idea. I came back from this wonderful workshop in Cambridge with Ariel and Shya and of course I had realized that “something” had happened. I hoped for “something” to be different after my return, but I would never ever have expected such a profound difference.

I came home on Sunday night and the first thing I realized on Monday morning was the trigger of an upset. It was like a little “beep” inside me, something jumping, but then….nothing. A few moments later the next little “beep”. And the day went on like this. I was flabbergasted by the sheer quantity of little triggers throughout the day. I didn’t count but there were MANY of them. And for the first time I understood what Ariel and Shya mean by “mechanic behavior”!!!! Because it just happens at a trigger, but the trigger is no real reason. I used to get upset about a thousand things that are no “real reasons” or justifications to get upset. It hurt a little to see that I have also “considered” my children to be a cause of upset. This week I’ve actually been able to be with my kids and weather through difficult situations without getting upset. It is actually almost a strange feeling. It feels as if I had been drugged or doped. Tranquilizers or something. It’s so funny because there is even a kind of a little man inside myself (I picture it that way) really furious about me not getting upset. And it’s also sometimes even leaving me a little uncertain. I am in a traffic jam. I don’t get upset. What am I going to do??? . (more…)

Hi All,

We are having a BRILLIANT time in Cambridge. We are even starting to sound a bit like the Britts
Our course this past weekend was so profound. By Sunday afternoon people were spontaneously popping into their brilliant selves. It was inspiring to see and be a part of the fun.

If you are available or have friends in the area, don’t forget to come and invite folks for our talks in Cambridge tonight and London on Friday evening. By the way, many of you have indicated that you are coming to one or both of these events and if you are, don’t forget to register! Here are the links:

Hello Everyone!

I read Gio’s email and wanted to add my experience of the Intimacy Workshop. First, every time I participate in a weekend seminar with the Kanes, I come out of it saying, “this was the BEST seminar yet!” While that was true again, this intimacy workshop was so powerful, it absolutely shifted the way I live and experience my life.

As a result of this weekend workshop, I have become a “yes” to my life in a way that I have never experienced before, embracing whatever comes my way. Interactions with my wife Karen used to result in complaints. Now, I just say “yes,” get things done immediately and without doing any work on ourselves or each other. Karen and I are experiencing real companionship, cooperation, love and satisfaction. We have not had an argument in days and have had relaxed and logical discussions related to topics that, in the past, would have ended in tears and frustration. Karen has remarked that the change in me is obvious and wonderful. (more…)

Dearest Friends,

I’m very happy to present you my own (and first) T-Shirt Collection. I found an Internet producer, which allows me to put my Design on various T-Shirts without having to produce them myself. But before I come to the links for the shops, let me tell you how this started and grew.

Quite a while ago I saw, bought and love a T-Shirt from my friend Menna, which she produced herself and which has the cover-image of her first book on it. It gave me an idea So I went on the Internet and researched different Shirt producing companies and came across a company called Spread-shirt. I signed in, uploaded 3 existing graphics and ordered some shirts myself, to check on the quality. The Shirts came and I was basically disappointed with the result, not liking the type of print they used. I did some more halfhearted research and basically forgot about it, until I saw a video mini-session on the Premium Excellence Club with Rod. Rod talked about how to create consistency in his work life and listening to the conversation, something in me clicked and went: “oh, this is how I create gaps in my work life”. It was so cool, I could really see how I create work or no work.

Hi everybody!

Hi Everyone,

I am proud to share with you an article I had the privilege to write for New York Resident magazine:

“Tranquility in Midtown Manhattan”

Ariel & Shya advertise in this magazine and asked me to write an article in the June issue!  I wrote it the weekend of the last course, Transformational Time and Project Management. When I sat down and saw all the things I wanted to say, it was so easy – and really fun – to write (much easier than I had thought it would be).

The article is about my experience of taking Ariel & Shya’s workshops and the wonderful results I’ve experienced (and continue to experience) in my life.

Thanks to Ariel & Shya and everyone for your support in making this happen. Enjoy!!

Love,
Val
