Sometimes life calls us to recalibrate, to breathe, to trust our inner guidance and move forward with patience, creativity and kindness. This truly feels like one of those times. We will never forget the unfolding of 2020 and it will surely go down in history for generations to reflect on and hopefully learn from. What […]
The Enneagram personality system is a valuable platform for understanding ourselves and others. I was introduced to it in 1994. Since then it has provided so much wisdom for me in my business and personal life that it was only natural for me to incorporate it into my practice. Not Putting You in a “Box” […]
We don’t see the world as it is – we see the world as we are! Therefore our perceptions create our reality. This is one of the statements I use when introducing the powerful personality system I work with called the Enneagram. The Enneagram brings ancient wisdom together with modern psychology to reveal 9 patterns of being in the world. Though we all share a bit of each of the 9 types within us, one is deeply part of our personality from womb to tomb.
I understand that this exact event will not take place again however the seeds will appear for something new in the future. The ripple effect of this weekend will create new portals of expansion within all of our circles. The possibilities are limitless. We are so fortunate to have such a community of talented and caring souls to celebrate life with. You can see a list of participants still by clicking here. Here is a small collection of photos from the event.
Every month we feature a different presenter to share their journey and talents. It is experiential, nurturing and oh so much fun! Every month has first time attendees and those who rarely miss. New friendships are made and new ideas germinated that bring women to something they never thought of before. There is an uplifting that is so valuable in our busy lives. When we participate in the circle, we find our power increase exponentially like a drop of water rippling on the surface of a pond. There is power in numbers and when the commitment is made by many to come together in a circle to focus attention and joy, the circle emanates ripples of energy that can change the world.
Not everyone who takes the reiki trainings actually want to do this for a living. Most want to develop their own intuitive healing abilities for themselves and their loved ones. I have definitely had numerous people who already practice another healing modality such as reflexology or massage therapy wish to bring an enhanced level of healing to what they already do. So, it should be no surprise to find that people not in an obvious healing field, also want to add this level of healing and love to what they do.
Cultural Creatives are roughly about 35% of adults in all developed countries of the world. In addition to their concern about family and relationships, they are concerned about the environment, social responsibility, personal development and growth, both psychologically and spiritually, over their whole lives. The annual growth rate is about 3% from the 1960’s onward. We had 20% of the American population in 1986, probably 30 million adults and now 35% or 80 million.
This is one of the reasons that I fell in love with the Enneagram system as it assists us in understanding our inner selves and others from a level of non-judgement. It provides some of the clues as to why we each have developed our own unique set of patterns of thinking, feeling and acting based on nature and nurture. It helps us develop our emotional intelligence skills! By sharing this passage with you, I acknowledge the challenge I have in holding a pure space of non-judgment for sure. It is definitely the section of work from Abraham and Esther Hicks that I review most often – the Law of Allowing! See this short YouTube clip for that.
I love looking at the infinite possibilities that we have within us to build resilience. When we are uncomfortable enough with what is not working, we are more willing to do something different! How many times have you heard that you can not solve a problem with the same consciousness that created it? So – let’s practice making new neuropathways that bring more transformation, flow and ultimately happiness in our lives.
Where it gets tricky is in our personal and intimate relationships. The mirroring behaviour can look very different between two people and yet come from the same underlying needs or perspective.
