You make a big difference? Thank You! from Giovanni in Brooklyn New York

giovanniDear friends,

I feel enlivened, and inspired by my signing up for this weekend’s workshop “The Art of Listening“,  and I am so grateful for Ariel and Shya, and all of you!

I’ve had a Flu for a couple of days now,  and I must say, it has been simple, and NICE.  I’ve been eating hot soups and healthy food,  I’ve been well-rested and making some new, unexpected, and meaningful drawings (I’m an artist, for those of you who don’t know me well, here is my site!! The website was hosted and designed by TAG Online- they are so awesome!)

Such a gift from Stefanie in Rosengarten Germany

StefanieL_CRDearest Friends,

My husband Rainer and I attended  the workshops “The Freedom to Breathe” and, over the weekend  ”The License to Live”, as well as the “Tuesday Night Alive” here here in Hamburg.

It was so beautiful, sweet, soft, light and easy. I’m in awe of how beautiful and easy Transformation is. Life felt pretty good before the workshops. Things were going well; our businesses had been growing and I could find nothing to complain about. However, since the workshops I have felt like being in a room that someone cleaned the windows. The trees are greener, the flowers are brighter… Life feels so sweet and soft to me, I had no idea that’s possible. It shows up everywhere. Prior to the workshops, things that have been edgy between Rainer and I became softer and we became more loving towards each other. Not only that I am more efficient at work, it’s as if my clients turned to be easier and sweeter  to be with even with a tight schedule and a pressing deadline. I just took care of things when they came without stressing myself out. It makes everything so rich and sweet! (more…)

The Art of Listening

Monday, October 24th, 2011

hmpg_kanes (1)Did you ever stop to think what the quality of your life would be like if you could listen more effectively? What if a shift in the way you listen made life easier, so that you were more successful at work, in social situations and in your personal relationships? The Art of Listening is a dynamic interactive workshop where you will discover the fundamental keys to effective listening and the barriers that prevent us from having satisfying communication with those around us. This seminar will apply the Principles of Transformation so that the act of listening will naturally and effortlessly expand your ability to access the moment and experience a sense of well-being.

It’s easy! from Amy in New Jersey

Friday, September 30th, 2011

amy-gideonHi Everyone!

The “Transformation in the Workplace“ workshop was AMAZING this weekend!!!!  WOW!  Wow!  Wow! And did I say wow!  Work has been flowing easy today and our staff (even the people that did not attend the workshop) feels in sync.  Even our family is “in sync”.  My husband (Andy) and I came home last night from the course and our older son, Alex, had worked on a project for school (he is in 4th grade) and he put that Andy was his “Hero”.  It was so sweet.

A few hours ago, a recruiter called me to see if she could help me with any of our staffing needs.  Her name is Jessica.  At first, I thought: I don’t have time to speak with her & who is this person?  But I chatted with her for a few minutes and realized there may be ways she can help our company.  Then, I found out she works in Manhattan so I invited her to Monday Night Alive! tonight – and she said yes, and while I was on the phone with her she Googled Monday Night Alive and said she was going to register right when we got off the phone…and she did!  Neato!

I am truly excited about the next workshop: The Art of Listening because listening is the key to transformation….just simply listening to another person and being with that person.  It magically works.

If you are thinking of coming to the next course, just do it!  I don’t have to tell you – I am sure you already know….that it starts when you register! : )

Love,
Amy (and Andy)

The Power of YES!

Friday, May 13th, 2011

flowers sBeing a “Yes” to your life and the way your life is showing up in each moment shifts your reality and allows for you to truly take control of your own life. Saying “Yes” (and meaning it) is a skill–set. With practice, you will get better at being a Yes, regardless of the circumstances.

Are you ready to discover the magic?

Check out the awesome online radio show “Being Here“, one of the top rated shows on the Voice America network.

Tune in and let the hosts Ariel & Shya be your strength trainers as you discover the power of your own personal Yes!

Being Right versus Being Alive from Corinne in Switzerland

Monday, December 27th, 2010

Hello my dear friends all over the world,

corinne-gabrielI would like to tell you my experience about being right versus being alive.

For some time I know Ariel & Shya’s work, read their great books a few times, listen to the wonderful radio shows, watch the lively videos of the Premium Excellence Club and so I heard about “being right versus being alive” and I thought a lot about it but couldn’t understand it really. I thought when I’m right why should I give up my right to be right for being alive. I’m alive.

Yesterday I experienced what it meant. (more…)

Friends We Haven’t Met Yet

Sunday, January 11th, 2009

davestern.jpgSomething became very clear to me at a weekend workshop I recently attended called, The Art of Listening. A significant portion of the participants in the course, more than I’ve seen in a long time, were new people who came in from all over the country. The workshop was vibrant, alive and fresh in a way that was very new and exciting to me!

I had heard it said many times before at other workshops I’ve attended, that the new people attending are the “lifeblood” of Transformation. This time, it became a very real experience for me to hear that. Like all of us at one time, they never knew this possibility existed for them and are intrigued and excited by it. They remind us of how rare it is to discover living in the moment and how we each make a huge difference. Those of us who regularly attend Monday night seminars and workshops “live” transformation as a lifestyle. The new people we invite are the fresh air, spark and fire that keeps it going and reignites the excitement of discovery.
