Dear friends all over the world,

Last night while I was working off my pile of papers to deliver to school before I go to Costa Ricaaaaaaa on Friday:-))))), I suddenly felt the urge to watch the last video-podcasts that I got being a member of the Premium Excellence Club. I had had trouble looking at them directly just clicking on the arrow and procrastinated finding out about the other possibilities for watching them. But there I was, in a wiff I got the solution – on my own – it worked and I could watch these brilliant moments in time!

I had totally forgotten how visible transformation gets on somebody’s face, in somebody’s stature, and even over the camera through the computer I felt as if I was in the room with everybody experiencing life to the fullest.

Make that a part of your life, too! If you ever had the slightest thought like “maybe I’ll join sometime…”: do it now, there’s just not a moment to waste in your life and the lives of everybody around you!

Dear Friends!

I just came back from a funeral that I attended with my husband Stephan (thanks for being there for me!).  This was the funeral of a former client of mine whose name is Christine and I want to tell you about her:

Christine was sitting in a wheelchair since she was 5 years old, because of amyotaxia (a kind of spasticity, that goes in “waves” through the body so that you can’t really control your movements) and could only walk with the help of other people.  If she wanted to move by herself, she used to crawl on her bottom.  I had been Christine’s physical therapist for several years, before she moved out of her home in Hamburg 5 years ago into her own apartment in the city (she got a job at the zoological institute), where we found a new therapist for her.

Dear Ariel & Shya,

I will begin with a heartfelt thank you. My weekend experience with the two of you and the wonderful community at the workshop was nothing short of magical.

I have not experienced anything like it in my life. Attending professional conferences can fire one up, but on Monday morning, back to “real” life and the enthusiasm slips away. Not so with your transformational workshop.

Your weekend workshop was indeed transformational. I have had a great week of being in the moment. After the session ended on Sunday, I joined Brian, Uli, Dorothy, Holly and Terry in going to the jazz club – more magic. Terry was briefly discussing the holographic nature of transformation – very cool. I am fascinated by network structures myself and the discussion began with fractals. Rest assured we were in the moment, enjoying the music, food and each other’s company.

Dear Transformers,

Amazing stuff happened last weekend

My aunt Anne from Hamburg, Germany threw a birthday brunch party on Sunday. So my parents, who live 2 hours away, took the opportunity to arrange a weekend in Hamburg. On Saturday they visited my boyfriend Jürgen & me, in the evening they watched a Musical in Hamburg and on Sunday we met all together at Anne’s place.

We had a very nice time together. We ate Jürgen’s brilliant homemade plum cake…mmmh, and everything went very smoothly. We talked about our experience of Instantaneous Transformation and my father was especially interested. During our chat Jürgen and I also discovered that we had a different opinion about how to understand one issue of Transformation and had a discussion about it.

I love going to work. For someone who used to think I should have been a rock star, it amazes me how much I love being a Loan Service Officer at an Investment Bank!

I used to be in a pop/rock band for 6 1/2 years. During this time, I was the Receptionist at the Bank. At my first year review, my boss asked what I thought of my career path. I answered, “I’m not interested in climbing the corporate ladder because my band is going to be discovered”. For the next 8 years, there I stayed in my administration assistant position, treating it like a “day job,” waiting for my life to begin.

Hi People!

This has been such a spiritual day.  I’ve been saying YES to everything, including many incomplete tasks in my apartment, and in my personal life and in my professional life.

This morning my father and his girlfriend Karen visited me to drop off a piece of furniture he wanted to give me.  What a blessing my father is!  Always giving!  Always caring about me.  He doesn’t owe me anything, yet he has all this patience and support for me.

We all had breakfast together in Astoria, and I felt closer with both of them than ever before.  In the past I’d had realizations about the way I would treat him like I was a kid, not being supportive to him, draining his energy, etc.  In the last two years, my relationship with my father has transformed big time, but today was actually a higher level of maturity and cooperation.

Dearest Friends,

Last Thursday my partner Daniela and I  had the opening for our show – presenting our furniture line “Color in Form” for the first time. It was an awesome, beautiful and successful evening.

Here are some highlights from the evening: The mayor of the town spoke at the introduction, the vice president from the board of trade did the Laudatio and our friend, actress Katharina Abt, did a reading about “Art in the Living room”, which is fun piece itself, but turned into a jewel when Katharina performed it. All three where so heartfelt and brilliant , it added extra spice to the event and we felt very honored.
Also we had the most yummy and beautiful food catered by our friend Stephan Monzel; people just loved the food and felt happy and taken care of .  And a saxophonist played some beautiful background lounge music (thanks Katja for the contact:-)).
We expected about 80 guests and thought that would be wonderful, since it was summer, the baltic sea is around the corner and the weather was just perfect for the beach. It was perfect for us too – we had a 150 guests:-)) 2 People ordered right away and we have a list of people who are interested in receiving more information and some individual solutions.  A friend with a home-acessories store with a small selection of furniture is interested in selling our furniture and THE local daily newspaper for Hamburg is running a special on furniture for teens soon and part of the article is about our furniture, including a picture and of course all of our contact info
