I used to think that good relationships and good jobs were things that only the luckiest people could attract into their lives but deep inside I also used to think that there must be the “perfect” relationship and the “perfect” job. My view was that if someone else could do it, I should be able to do it as well.

Sometimes when we feel stressed and we don’t seem to be able to bear the pressure of the demands set upon us by our modern lives. We seem to be powerless to stop ourselves falling into what some of us could call a “negative” mind set. So, what is negativity? I would like to throw some light into this word in order to better understand what it is. What do we really do when we lose the balance and harmony that propel us into a world sunk in a black hole, in a dark void of hopelessness so painful and overwhelming sometimes?

Have you seen the film “Josuah”? Another film? You may say… Well, Spirit does have a way to give its messages to us in the way we will be paying attention and I find films inspiring (watch out where you place your attention; there may be a message for you!). Films also help me focus “out of the self” and they create a space for a meditative state and for "hearing": I feel the messages and emotions reaching right through to my heart. Somehow this brings a catharsis and a balance of energy within which I find truly relieve accumulated tension.

It was one good day in October 2004. I had been living in the UK for quite a few years; I had been married and divorced and, as life has it, after the storm comes the calm… after having arrived at the conclusion that I was better off without a man in my life… he arrived. He didn’t look like anything I was looking for but he was everything I ever wished for.

Today’s busy lifestyles make it very hard for people to find a moment to disengage from daily frantic activity and find some meditation or reconnection time, a time to regroup or reintegrate one’s energies. However, Spirit has found the perfect solution to this problem: if it is efficiency you are after and since time is such a precious commodity, why not using your sleep as a tool to refocus and complement the growth you experience during your wake time?

INTRODUCTION You don’t ask the river “How often does your water flow’… Because if the river is healthy, its water will flow all the time. All day, every day. It is only when there is a block and the flow stops that its waters become stagnant, its crystalline clarity goes and the life in it dies. Creativity is just the same: like the water, ideas and inspiration should be able to flow through us at any time.

Extract from one of my Master of Ceremonies notes, April 2009: “April is a month that has a very distinguishing feature… and I am not talking about my birthday! I am talking about Easter. Easter is about the Passion of Christ. I am not going to preach to you about anything religious; it is not my kind of subject! I am not going to talk to you about righteousness, right or wrong; the least I judged, the least I get judged and the least I get tangled up in other people’s realities.

Sonia Choquette says in her Oracle Cards (Card no 19 – Survival): “Your Healer Guides […] want you to recognize that the psychic attacks you’ve suffered through the unconscious, negative behaviour of others have left you injured. You’ve been betrayed and energetically wounded […] Stop blaming yourself for what others have done to you”.r

The TAO says: “The softness and yielding of water overcomes the hardness and strength of stone” TAOISM is a chinese philosophy which advocates simply the way and order of the Universe. Through stillness and receptivity (feminine or yin) natural intuition guides us in knowing when to act and when not to act (masculine or yang).rn‘The World is ruled by letting things take their natural course. It cannot be ruled by going against nature or arrogance.’ MAN’S MADE Vs NATURAL WORLD

• Never miss an opportunity to speak: it is practice that makes it perfect. As long as you don’t hog all the time and attention, you will be seen as a reliable speaker that has the capacity to fill a gap when everyone else has either cancelled their speaking opportunity or changed their mind about delivering their speech!

In March 2008 I borrowed a friend’s “Triple Goddess Tarot” pack of cards (by Isha Lerner) and gave myself a reading. Among the cards that came up, one took the place of the “New Moon or New Beginning” – It was the card No. 23 or Infinite Truth. Among the meanings of this card, the following ones stuck with me, for a long time… until I decided to write this course: • “Love and truth are inseparable”. • “Speaking true words with a beautiful voice”. • “Thoughtful and well-intended communication (which the Buddhists call “Right Speech”), the vital source of inspired relationships”.r

ANIMAL STRATEGY READINGS AND REPORTS:

Animal Strategy is a way to apply the teachings of animals in our own lives. It is based on the Native American culture's approach to nature where the animals and all living beings are considered brothers and sisters, where we all can learn from each other (we are both teachers and students of life) and where we can learn to maintain a balance between what we take and what we give to the Earth.

Animals are extremely resourceful and resilient and they will give you different perspectives on your life issues: by learning the skills and strategies animals use to survive in the wild, you will regain control and direction of your life. Animal Strategy will bring you focus, growth, empowerment and the courage to help you increase your decision-making skills with self-confidence.

PHONE / SKYPE READINGS & REPORTS:

Skype code: anataggy

Find out your Totem Animals, or the animals that are specially connected to you during this lifetime, as well as a full explanation of who you are, your strengths and weaknesses and any area in your life that needs rebalancing.

These specific Totem Animals or guides that are specially connected to you, which resonate with you, will give you an insight on your potential and limitations as you study the specific animal behaviours and characteristics.

This is what the Native Americans call Medicine or Gift. The animals offer us perspective, possibilities and choices and I use this information to assist my clients on their personal development work.

FEE: $65

1 hour reading and a 25 page report including:

* The 12 House Personality Report

* The 9 Totem Animal Report

* The Pathway Animal Report

* The Medicine Wheel Animal Report

* The 4 Directions Animal Report

THE MEGA-HEALING COMBO WORKSHOP:

* Who am I?

* What is my purpose?

* How can I have healthy and loving relationships?

* How can I maintain my life-work balance?

* Where is my path to abundance?

These and many similar questions are in our mind pretty much the majority of the time.

This course is the summary of my 18 years of personal development in the field of integration of consciousness and human potential. In it,

I have put together some of the very best transformational tools that have helped me make the leap towards abundance and inner balance.

The Mega-Healing-Combo Workshop will push you to dive right inside yourself and find the answers that have been eluding you so far.

This work has to do with unraveling, stripping, dissecting and separating the layers of your personality so that you can face them one at a time in order to negotiate and learn strategies to deal with your shadow self, that part of yourself that is unconscious, hidden, negated and unloved.

So if you are ready to take this trip, I promise you to be one of the most exciting jou eys you will ever embark upon (and all within the confines of your own home) which will lead you to find the fascinating, loving, embracing, powerful and passionate you.

The Mega-Healing-Combo Workshop is a 6 weeks' course conduced via Skype and Email.

Each session is of 1 hour, one day per week. Homework and personal work will be given in between sessions for preparation and introspection, which is a very important part of the work.

FEE: $150 for the course.
