Hi Everyone!

Last night marked a milestone for me and I feel compelled to share!

Last night I was disappointed to miss MNA because lately I’ve felt like humpty dumpty  who fell off the wall but I had class to attend and then found my mom in a tissy about how much she had to do before the holidays. So I sighed and stayed to help. I did everything she asked in the time she needed. Part of me wondered was I once again playing rescuer but my mom has done a lot for me so I felt like helping. I told myself I would do something nice for me afterward. (more…)

Dear Friends,

My girlfriend Sandy & I came home from Hamburg two days ago, where we attended two absolutely amazing workshops, “The Freedom To Breathe” and “The License To Live” with the Kanes.

Since the start of the first workshop I have felt really empowered, fresh, complete, clear and very calm at the same time – and this feeling lingers on, in all aspects of my live. I get things done and handled without any effort or stress, I just finish what has to be done and move on to the next thing without any complaint or thought that usually came up in my mind that told me I’d like to do something different or better.

And also my relationship with Sandy feels so fresh and close and precious again – it’s like falling in love with her for the first time, again and again, from moment to moment anew! I really love what has happened and is still happening for us two and all the others who took part in the “Hamburg Adventure” with the Kanes. (more…)

Dear friends around the world,

Last week I came back from a 10 day vacation with a dear friend of mine at the Ligurian Coast in Italy. We had stayed with relatives of hers and had the best time: sun and rain, sea and countryside, beautiful encounters and conversations with people, lovely food (and ice cream!!) and a lot of fun. In the midst of all beautiful things something truly magical happened to me.

I have my own business as a PR consultant & an interpreter. In the last three years English became the predominant language that I have been called on to interpret. Recently I considered concentrating on English, and stopped working with the Italian language completely.

I was sitting by the water on the shore, reading an Italian book, looking at the children jumping into the water, enjoying the breeze, the sun and the water on my skin when I suddenly felt some sort of hate towards Italian people. I noticed it, quite surprised… I saw it and it was gone. Something really interesting happened next. It felt as if somebody took a lid off of me and all my passion, love and admiration for Italian people and Italian culture came bubbling up… (more…)

Dear friends around the world,

I was just thinking about you in the midst of my wedding preparation- I wonder if you all know that Christian and I are getting married in August?  We are planning a civil wedding ceremony with the inner circle of the family this summer.

After Christian and I  moved in together last October things were great between us and we enjoyed very much being with each other. Another accelerator was my participation in the workshop with Ariel and Shya in Costa Rica. Ever since I returned, we had an incredible time together and Christian spontaneously asked my parents for my hand in marriage. We chose the date (Aug 5th) so our family could attend. (more…)

I’m so thankful for Ariel and Shya’s insight and expertise, and their awesome radio show, which has been a real support to me in living in the Moment!

For the first time in my life I feel that my access to the moment is sustainable.

Dear friends,

I have a little story to share.

My daughter is twelve now and cleaning up her room – as well as some other basics – is really a challenge at the moment. (more…)

Greetings to one and all in the Transformational Community!

John

As some of you know, I attended my first Costa Rican Adventure in January of this year. It was an amazing experience and I enjoyed it immensely. It was great to spend time with such an inspirational group and I loved meeting so many wonderful new friends from the European community. I had just decided in December to attend and was so glad I did. (more…)

Most of us are looking for a depth of intimacy and personal satisfaction in all of our interactions. It is just that we have never really been taught how to access this state of harmony and well-being. When you discover how to be present in every day moments, as if each and everything you do matters, then you begin to experience the simplicity and awesome nature of life. In this course you will discover how to feel good in your own skin and how to intimately interact with everyone and everything, including and perhaps most especially, with yourself.

Here is one participant’s experience of the workshop last year. Why not create your own experience? You may be pleasantly surprised of who you are!
