Marianne Williamson: KEYNOTE SPEAKER!
The Age of Miracles
It has been written that our generation has added fifteen years to our life span; but it's not at the end, it's in the middle. In her new book The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife, Marianne Williamson discusses a new and unmapped psychological territory --- for a generation that is decidedly no longer young, but could certainly not be described as old. As the physical body begins to slow down, the work of consciousness can begin to rev up. Having experienced what we've experienced of both success and failure, we're poised  at last on the brink of our greatest fulfillment: a life of mastery and understanding that provides not only us, but all the world, with the possibility of miraculous breakthroughs.

During this  special evening with Marianne Williamson, one of the world's most respected spiritual teachers, you'll learn how to embrace midlife as a magical turning point. In what Williamson describes as our "second puberty," we can leave behind who we used to be and step into an entirely new domain of our existence. Williamson will discuss how to let go old, limiting thought forms about age that have merely been passed down from former generations. "We accept the limits of age," says Williamson, "but we accept the limitlessness of God as well."

Gregg Braden:  The Science of Miracles: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits
Best selling author of The Divine Matrix and more! For us to change the limiting beliefs that have led to war, disease, and the failed careers and relationships of our past we need a reason to see things differently. Our ancestors used miracles to change what they believed. Today we use science. Join Gregg Braden in this powerful multi-media intensive as he offers us both—the miracles that open the door to a powerful new way of seeing the world, and the science that tells us why the miracles are possible and how to experience them in our own lives!
 
A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that the universe works like a huge computer based in consciousness. And just as every computer uses a code to create results, the universe uses our experience of Belief to create the stuff that our world and our bodies are made of. The key to healing our false limitations is to understand what belief is, and how it works. Once we’re aware of the mind-boggling discoveries and true-life miracles, we open the door to shattering our own paradigm of false limits. With riveting visuals, case histories, and easy-to-understand science this multi-media program guides you through the powerful discoveries that reveal:
 
• How to make the simple shift in your beliefs that catapults you beyond the limitations of your past!
• The single belief that limits, or expands, every choice and decision that you will make in your life, and how you can heal it!
• Why disease, aging, and even Reality is based upon a simple code that can be changed and upgraded by choice!
Much, much more!

Joan Borysenko, Ph.D.: Stress to Strength:  Tools from Ancient Wisdom & Modern Science
Spiritual teacher and author of 14 books. Trained as a medical scientist at the Harvard Medical School she is known for her brilliance in mind/body medicine and practical spirituality.

Modern cognitive psychology has been compared to ancient yoga science in its prescriptions for managing the mind. There are stunning parallels between modern and ancient mind training techniques that can help anyone in the quest to manage stress and achieve inner peace and wellbeing. But a strong mind is useless without a compassionate heart. Awakening the impulse to kindness provides a practical focus for the mind to work through. During this workshop we will learn four techniques for managing the mind and opening the heart: breath awareness; stopping automatic negative thoughts, forgiveness; and meditations for compassion.

Behavioral Objectives for CEU’s:
At the conclusion of the session the participant will be able to:
• List two cognitive methods for controlling an anxious or distracted mind.
• Discuss the relationship between forgiveness and inner peace.
• Perform a simple breathing technique that quiets the mind

Gary  Renard: Love Has Forgotten No One
You can learn to dissolve the illusions of time and space and return to reality which is Perfect Love. This is not love the way the world commonly thinks of it. It's an all-encompassing kind of love that is perfect spirit: innocent, unflawed, immortal, invulnerable and forever fearless.

Real love, which is Divine in nature, must be experienced, for it is beyond words. Yet words and practice are needed to help lead you to that experience. The knowledge of what it's like to be one with your Source is the awesome mystical experience that's been described by Masters throughout the ages. It's the greatest sense of awareness anyone can have while still appearing to be in this world.

Gary will teach you exactly how to get to that experience, which upon the end of your physical existence will become your permanent reality. You will find that Love has forgotten no one.

• Learn to hear the “echoes” of God’s love – answers to your prayers in unexpected moments of inspiration and surrender
• Experience the power of True Forgiveness that leads directly to inner peace and healing
• Practice True Perception that undoes the ego

During his last few years of extensive travel, Gary has discovered that people are ready for much more than most teachers and the media are willing to give them. Gary shares startling revelations about the power of forgiveness to melt away the world’s mistakes. The truth is we have remained exactly as God created us, which is perfect spirit. The experience of this can be awakened to.

A noted teacher of A Course In Miracles, Gary offers a way of looking at the world that leads to fearlessness and the full flowering of the human spirit. The long-term result of practicing the knowledge gained during this seminar will be enlightenment and the end of reincarnation, once and for all. Come awaken from the dream!

Dannion Brinkley:  Identifying Your Spiritual Style
NY Times best selling author of Saved by the Light and At Peace in the Light.  Dannion was struck by lightning and had a near death experience.  As the world spins its way towards a new phase in Creation, each one of us is responsible for the part we have chosen to play in the Earth’s never ending story. Regardless of whether we volunteered to write, direct, or produce our life film, we are all stars in the making. Yet, though our spiritual styles are unique, and truly our own, they still fall into cosmically designated categories. We are born with the intention of being either:
 
• Creators
• Maintainers
• Destroyers
 
Now, of course, an individual can be a combination of all three spiritual styles, but one is usually more predominant than the other two. Indentifying and understanding the nature of each spiritual style will increase our effectiveness and ability to co-create in the coming years of unprecedented change.

Dannion  will share practice tools for discerning each style as well as how to successfully blend our energies with those of other styles. Our daily activities are chocked full of practical opportunities to witness the myriad of incredible possibilities for displaying the magnificence of our spiritual identity. Come prepared to be fully transformed by the gift of self-knowledge

Dr. Joe Dispenza: Neuro-plasticity and the Art of Rewiring Your Brain
This discussion will begin with the latest scientific research about neural-plasticity. Meaning we aren’t as hardwired as once was thought in the scientific community.

We will look at how learning and memory, as well as the different types of memory, play a part in our everyday lives. Then we must ask the questions: What is this mind-body connection? Does our subjective mind have an effect in the objective world? Can we make our brain and mind work better? What is the anatomy of intention? We will begin to understand how we can create pathways to experience life in a more conscious and responsible way. Thus, understanding the difference between thinking, doing and being.

Either way, change challenges assumptions about who we are, why we 're here ,and why we're doing what we're doing. If there's one skill in life that can help you live from your highest potential, it's the ability to make fresh choices from a place of interior freedom. Whether you're in the midst of an unwanted change, or want to learn how to make change your ally in spiritual awakening and practical success, come and learn how to navigate the straits between no longer and not yet.

Gregg Braden: Programming Reality: If You Know The Code, You Choose The Rules
Best selling author of The Divine Matrix and more!  A growing body of scientific evidence is leading to an inescapable conclusion: that everything from the healing of our bodies to the peace of our world is based upon the language of a simple code—a heart-based code—that we may learn and upgrade by choice.
 
To tap the force of this code, we must understand how it works and speak the language that it recognizes. For more than 22 years, Gregg Braden, a former senior aerospace computer systems designer, has searched for the understanding to do just that. From the remote monasteries of Egypt, Peru and Tibet, to the forgotten texts that were hidden by the early Christian Church, the power to program our reality was left in the coded language of our most cherished traditions. It is verified in today’s science. The key to healing our false limitations is to understand what reality is, and how it works. In this multi-media intensive Gregg shares what he’s found and describes how a subtle change in our perceptions holds the timeless secret to healing, peace, and even the future of our species!

• Discover the growing body of evidence that the universe, our world, and our bodies are based upon an ancient code!
• Learn how recent changes in earth’s magnetic cycles support changes in your life—now!
• See why your heart is “hard wired” to the reality of your world!
• Discover the growing evidence that we are living a “virtual reality” and what it’s teaching us!

Bruce Lipton: As Above…So Below: An Introduction to Fractal Evolution
For millennia, civilization has been preoccupied with the perennial questions of human origins and life’s purpose. Religion claims that humans are the product of special Creation put on Earth directly by the hand of God for the purpose of living out plays of morality. The opposing view of Science suggests we are merely the product of 3 billion years of Evolution driven by random genetic mutation. Perceived as hereditary “accidents,” Science posits no purpose for human presence other than to compete for survival in an eternal struggle for existence. We are in need of a new sustaining vision as global terror and the onset of the plantet’s sixth mass extinction threaten human survival. Join cell biologist, Bruce H Lipton, Ph.D., as he introduces a long-awaited paradigm shift in the biomedical sciences that integrates, unifies and honors the philosophical polarities of both Evolutionists and Creationists. The new theory of Fractal Evolution, based upon leading edge cell biology, physics and mathematics, not only makes sense of our history—more importantly, it provides insights to ensure our’s and the environment’s survival.
 
Dr. Joe Dispenza: Neuro-plasticity and the Art of Rewiring Your Brain
This discussion will begin with the latest scientific research about neural-plasticity. Meaning we aren’t as hardwired as once was thought in the scientific community. The brain has the ability to change at any moment. Thus WE are capable of change at any moment. Utilizing the laws of the brain, we can now understand what it takes to develop new neural networks. We will look at how learning and memory, as well as the different types of memory, play a part in our everyday lives. Then we must ask the questions: What is this mind-body connection? Does our subjective mind have an effect in the objective world? Can we make our brain and mind work better? What is the anatomy of intention? We will begin to understand how we can create pathways to experience life in a more conscious and responsible way. Thus, understanding the difference between thinking, doing and being.

Gary Renard: Love Has Forgotten No One

You can learn to dissolve the illusions of time and space and return to reality which is Perfect Love. This is not love the way the world commonly thinks of it. It's an all-encompassing kind of love that is perfect spirit: innocent, unflawed, immortal, invulnerable and forever fearless.

Real love, which is Divine in nature, must be experienced, for it is beyond words. Yet words and practice are needed to help lead you to that experience. The knowledge of what it's like to be one with your Source is the awesome mystical experience that's been described by Masters throughout the ages. It's the greatest sense of awareness anyone can have while still appearing to be in this world.

Gary will teach you exactly how to get to that experience, which upon the end of your physical existence will become your permanent reality. You will find that Love has forgotten no one.

• Learn to hear the “echoes” of God’s love – answers to your prayers in unexpected moments of inspiration and surrender
• Experience the power of True Forgiveness that leads directly to inner peace and healing
• Practice True Perception that undoes the ego

During his last few years of extensive travel, Gary has discovered that people are ready for much more than most teachers and the media are willing to give them. Gary shares startling revelations about the power of forgiveness to melt away the world’s mistakes. The truth is we have remained exactly as God created us, which is perfect spirit. The experience of this can be awakened to.

A noted teacher of A Course In Miracles, Gary offers a way of looking at the world that leads to fearlessness and the full flowering of the human spirit. The long-term result of practicing the knowledge gained during this seminar will be enlightenment and the end of reincarnation, once and for all. Come awaken from the dream!

KC Miller: Walking Your Soul’s Path – Toe Reading
9:00 am – 4:00 pm
Toe Reading can certainly be a fun and entertaining parlor game. In fact, people will accuse you of being psychic you can become so accurate.  However, the true gift of learning the art of Toe Reading is to learning a way to create deep insight into your own life or the lives of others by understanding that the toes and sole of the foot are a hologram for everything that has happened in one’s life.  Major traumas, dramas, personality tendencies and destiny factors are stored in the toes.  With the intention to be an instrument in the peace and healing of another you can transcend the physical observations and quite literally learn to read a person’s soul prints by acknowledging their sole’s recordings.  This workshop will teach you to help shift someone’s awareness of how they are, and how they can be, in the world by asking penetrating soul coaching questions.  This workshop promises to be a transformational experience.  You will walk out of the room with a greater knowing of how you have walked in the world, and how you want to talk toward into your destiny
