Hello all, friends, family, students and teachers

On October 1st, Cornerstone Bookstore and I will be collaborating once again with a six week class on the Law of Attraction. This workshop series is based on exploring, navigating and actualizing the principles revealed in the best selling book "The Secret".

The Law of Attraction is the buzz phrase for this century, it is the
key to the secret, and the key to the next great leap forward in your
life.

'The Secret' reveals to us something that our spiritual teachers and
masters have known for centuries, it awakens us to the powerful
Universal Laws of cause and effect that impact our day to day experience of life.

Law of Attraction states that you attract what you put your attention
to. In other words, all of your thoughts, emotions and energy attract
exactly what you are calling for, speaking of , thinking of, acting
on. Thoughts and energy create your current reality.

As simple as this law is to understand, the challenge for most of us is in discovering the ways in which we block our good, our abundance, our joy and sense of health and fulfillment in our lives.

Join us for a six week discussion group to help you navigate and
understand the Law of Attraction: Learn to tune into what you are
currently creating; uncover negative emotions, statements and actions
that may be keeping you from your dreams; step into a more enlightened
way of living and learn how to master your own life.
Bring your friends, your spouse and your loved ones to this is a wonderfully supportive and fun class for all.

Classes begin October 1st 2007 at 7pm
$120 for the six weeks
Pre-registration required

Women’s Wellness and Wisdom

The Power of the Goddess Party

After ten years of facilitating the Goddess Party this is what I have learned. Women everywhere are looking for the vein of Gold within them. Many of my clients are searching for their rightful place, their rightful mates and the truth and beauty in their lives. They are in need of more laughter, ways to play and places to unravel their wisdom, power and great loving spirits. Many women are quietly desperate just waiting to be seen, heard and valued for being exactly who they are. What I know and have discovered in this last decade is that in order to find that which they seek, they must be willing to go within and find it in themselves. This is the power of the Goddess Party - it is a woman’s magical place to relax, find her answers and reconnect to her inner source of wellness and wisdom.

If you need clarity in your life, if you want deeper connections with your friends, if you are looking for more support, celebration, harmony, balance and a greater sense of wellness as a woman, then look to discover who and what supports you. There are many gifts to be accessed through the act of reaching out and asking for what you need. The catalyst to let go of the old and breathe in the “new you” could be within the combined wisdom of your circle of friends.

Elizabeth reached out with her Goddess cards and touched my very soul in a way that profoundly impacted my future.

Because the Goddess Party is part celebration, part coaching circle and part women’s council, it is a unique experience that stands on its own within the psychology and emotional empowerment of women. I have heard from women from all over the country about how the Goddess Party has changed their lives. How after experiencing this sacred circle many women begin to see themselves through different eyes, through eyes of greater self-love, acceptance and a renewed appreciation for their own inner beauty, wisdom and vitality as women. This is because there is a powerful spark within all women that is strengthened and expressed within our shared stories, our powerful bonds of friendship and in the recognition of the truth and beauty we all share as we walk the world as Women.


I hired Elizabeth Stahl to give my best friend a goddess party for her 40th birthday. Liz flew out to Napa Valley, California and gave the most wonderful, sacred gift my girlfriend could receive. We all had an experience that not only brought us together as friends, but changed our lives as the goddesses we all are. I recommend this Goddess party to all my friends for all types of occasions or just as the occasion to celebrate being a woman.

There is an acceleration of women’s influence ascending throughout our society where women are designing their own lives, handling it all and stepping up to the place of their sovereignty. With statistics mirroring the fact that 51% of all adult women in the United States are single, it is truly time to weigh in our worth and know who and what we are here to be, do and have. It is rapidly becoming apparent that we are now living in a woman’s world and it is time to allow ourselves to take the stage of our lives in our true place of power, prosperity, love, health, beauty and truth. This is the age of women learning to value themselves in all ways; it is time for women to shine brightly and fully access their resources of support as they step forward.

Picking my Goddess card allowed me to honor my decision with my family…and move toward my vision of my dreams.

Our greatest sense of health and wellness is akin to the state of our self-love and self-worth. For so many women, access to this personal power has been buried by years of denial and neglect, for some it is buried so deep that it needs to be re-discovered and invited to come forth. The Goddess Party is a first step to opening a woman to the wealth of her worth.

There is a very deep place within every woman that remembers herself in the company of other women. It is ancient in our bloodlines to reconnect with this powerful source of women’s wellness and ancient wisdom within the circle of feminine energy. As we honor each woman in the circle, we listen for the stories and names of her ancestors, reminding each other of where we have come from, who we are now and who we want to become. Permission is granted to all to remember the wholeness of our hearts, dreams and desires. Permission is granted within the circle of women to be all that we are and to allow ourselves to become even more than we thought possible. There is laughter and tears and everything in between as women uncover the depths of their powerful abundance. The embodiment of truth and beauty, wisdom and love is the majesty and grace of the Goddess Party, the sacred celebration of every woman.

The Rainbow Bridge – teachings of Doris Kula

Self-Awareness root chakra, I am, I exist, I have impact, self-hood, knowing who you are, understanding your gifts, what brings you joy, what you love to do, who you love, knowing that your life has meaning and that meaning unfolds throughout your life.


Self-Worth sacral chakra, honoring your true spiritual nature, spark of infinite divine consciousness, living from this integrated fact regardless of experiences. Uniqueness.

Self-Esteem solar plexus, emotional value we place on ourselves, it can be earned and developed. Self-esteem is the physical counterpart to spiritual self-worth Boundaries,

Self-Acceptance heart chakra, can be developed from the heart, love, trust, compassion, having compassion for the hurt parts of self. Forgiving the hurt parts for causing hurt or being hurt. Accepting all parts of oneself, opening arms to hug. The heart is the center of the bridge.

Self-Love throat chakra, we are born with self-love but we forget about it, from self-acceptance comes a greater sense of self-love, as we expand in self-consciousness we expand in love and self-love, ultimately expanding into unconditional love, don’t put yourself down for not being unconditionally loving it is an evolutionary process to get there, which moves into self-respect.

Self-Respect 3rd eye, honoring your emotional nature and the nature of the inner child of the 2nd chakra, partnering 6th and 2nd to have passion, self-respect for passions, for life, for sexuality, for anger. Honoring emotions. We are not really afraid of our anger we are afraid of our rage and violence, rage and violence are from building up anger and not expressing it in the moment it arises. Screamers and criers, screamers get stuck in anger and don’t get in touch with pain, criers get in touch with emotions/pain and disconnect from anger. Anger and hurt often get entangled this way. Ask self when feeling something is there hurt under anger or anger under hurt.
Anger and unfulfilled expectations. To move out of victim I have to own my expectations. If after sharing expectation (which is also a need) and person does not fulfill it, don’t sell yourself out. Honor self for needs, if person can’t fulfill your needs, honor self, self-respect and be responsible to self, to fulfill your own needs.

Self-Actualization crown chakra, manifesting our vision, being ourselves, self-awareness and knowing I have the power to use my energy consciously to create the reality I want. I have the tools to use to create the impact I want. Focusing on manifesting. Manifesting more and more of our uniqueness, having a destination (destiny) purpose and destiny intertwine in uniqueness.



May there be beauty and strength within you!

Let there be beauty and strength within you!

Mission
My mission is to celebrate, honor and reconnect women to their feminine source of power and natural state of well-being. It is my life’s work and joy to infuse women with the concept of the Goddess within each of us, reminding all women at any age and stage of their lives of their inherent beauty, womanly wisdom, inner wealth, unique presence and personal gifts they bring to the world.

Teacher and Healer
I have been a student, explorer and practitioner of mind, body and spiritual health for the past 20 years, this is truly my life’s work. My practice embraces and includes a wide range of healing modalities; from wholistic nutrition to herbal medicine; body work and massage therapy, energy work, shamanic healing, transformational breathwork and the ancient art of creating ceremony and ritual for mind, body and spiritual healing.
For the last 9 years, I have focused almost exclusively on women’s health and healing through my work as a Life Coach and Mentor, The Goddess Party and Facilitating classes and workshops for women and girls. Healing our emotional wounds, our physical bodies, connecting to our spiritual well-being and celebrating our authenticity is the essence of my work.

History of my Goddess Awakening, a Legacy of Self-Esteem and Health.
About 20 years ago I found a necklace of a female figure with large breasts, curvy buttocks and round hips. I knew I had to have her, she was so beautiful and such a powerful representation of a woman’s body as beautiful and shapely and healthy, unlike the nymph type figure that was so popular at that time during the 1980’s. (picture Kate Moss and the development of the super models). I had a shapely body and was always trying to lose weight; I even had people constantly telling me that I would be much more beautiful if I were thinner. This can take quite a toll on a girl and woman’s self-esteem and sense of self-worth, which ultimately can lead to depression and disease as we age. The feeling of not being good enough exactly as we are is a woman’s greatest challenge.

I started wearing that necklace at age 21, people would stop me on the street and tell me that it was a symbol of the Goddess (which I didn’t know when I bought her) and through the years I found myself learning more and more about this archetype of the Goddess, her various mythologies and what a powerful symbol of health she can be for women. Now at the age of 41, I embody this essence and share this gift with all who cross my path.
The symbol of this Goddess necklace has inspired my life and my life’s work, and I have felt so blessed because of it.

The Goddess Party
I created the Goddess Party, for my own birthday celebration in 1998, while living in Montreal as a student at The Institute for Natural Health Consulting. My degree is an N.H.C. (Natural Health Consultant). The first Goddess Party was a powerful and positive life changing event for all who attended, and it continues to be for the women who experience this celebration together.
At a Goddess Party, we celebrate the many faces of womanhood, by honoring our mothers, grandmothers and role models as well as ourselves, and explore the many names and stories of the Goddesses from around the globe. This is an invitation to be infused with the beauty we all share, to be nourished with laughter and the joy of each other’s company. We wear Goddess crowns, toast each other as Goddesses, drink herbal elixirs, pick Goddess cards, share stories and pay tribute to each other with beautiful heart-felt blessings.
Women tap into their amazing feminine spirit, inner power and divine beauty in the presence of other women. That is why Bookclubs and Red Hat Societies are so popular these days, it is a way of deepening the bonds of friendship and connection to eachother.

The Goddess Party is part woman’s council, part celebration and part ancient Game we all know how to play.

Celebration and Healing with the Goddess Party
A Goddess Party is a wonderful way to celebrate a bride or a birthday, a blessing way for mother’s to be or a right of passage for a girl or woman at any stage of her life.
The Goddess Party is also a powerful way to support women going through a time of grief, loss, divorce, illness, cancer or any other challenge they may be facing. It is a way for women to know they are not alone, they are amongst sisters and friends who love them on their journey through life.
The Power of Myth
The power of myth is immense, and as we use Goddess mythology as a source of inspiration during the Goddess Party, we discover how these ancient stories still have relevance, mirroring the many aspects of our modern day lives. Issues such as power, love, compassion, betrayal, fear, beauty, competitiveness, addictions, etc. are all an aspect of this type of exploration. These mythological stories are archetypal and relevant to all of today’s women.

Beauty, Well-Being and the Law of Attraction
The movie ‘The Secret’ has brought to light the Universal Law of Attraction. This is a big part of my work with women; the uncovering and discovering of the attractor factor.
What we think, feel and act is what we attract. Through the Goddess Party, workshops and my Life Coaching practice, I help connect women to a greater sense of their self-worth, to the essence of their deserve-ability, their inherent beauty and the power within them to attract and create the lives they want. Within this work we turn the flashlight on and point it to the shadow aspects we have within ourselves that hold us back from our source of abundance and natural state of well-being. As we sit in our circles or even one to one in my coaching practice, women begin to tune in to their stories and histories and start discovering new ways to think of themselves and act upon their lives.

A big way to connect to our attract-ability is in honoring our beauty. Beauty is truth, truth beauty. Health is beauty. Beauty is abundant all around us. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, if you see beauty you are beauty. Beauty is on the inside etc. All these statements are true and all women are beautiful. Reconnecting to our inner source of beauty, which is connected to our inner source of wellness, which is our natural state of being, which is connected to all of life and life is abundant and beautiful, we are life and we are beauty embodied. This is a radical new way of thinking for many, but this new way is the way to more personal power, love, wellness and abundance.

Connecting to your own personal form of beauty can be inspired in different ways. Eating for beauty with whole foods, anointing the Goddess you are with fragrance and oils, drinking healing and aromatic teas and my favorite taking BEAUTY WALKS.

The Beauty Walk
The beauty walk is an inspired action of drinking in the beauty and abundance of all life around you. It is a sensual, spiritual form of exercise and a way to enhance your overall beauty and sense of well-being.
You can read about the Personal Power of Beauty and the beauty walk with a free download from my website. www.MyGoddessParty.com

Books
I have two book collaborations with other coaches in the store section. The free download is called “Top Coaches Share Personal Power Strategies” Just press the link and find my chapter which includes a detailed version of the beauty walk in there.
