Living Your Higher Self: The Sacred Human (Discovering the Total Self # 9)
Event on 2013-07-09 19:00:00

LIVING YOUR HIGHER SELF: THE SACRED HUMAN

Course # 9 of Transformational Arts College of Spiritual and Holistic Training's Discovering the Total Self Program: an extensive program consisting of 10 modules in psychospiritual development.

From the Transformational Arts College of Spiritual and Holistic Training Calendar:

Discovering the Total Self: The Emerging Sacred Human is an extensive program designed to balance body, mind and spirit, bringing the individual to a state of personal empowerment through the transformational process. A psychospiritual approach is taken in the course teachings that incorporate a blending of ancient spiritual wisdom, esoteric principles, contemporary psychology and emotional healing.

This program is based on two different paths that must be travelled on simultaneously in our spiritual journey. One is the Path of the Contemporary Mystic. The other is the Path of Emotional Healing. These paths can be paradoxical in nature. The Path of the Contemporary Mystic encourages us to transcend our egos, surrender , go with the flow, trust divine guidance, detach, enter into the mystery and be of service.

The Path of Emotional Healing and Self-Discovery takes us into our self, healing our wounds and developing a healthy sense of ego – getting our needs met, expressing feelings, having a voice and taking charge of our life.

This program teaches the student the art of balancing on both paths on their spiritual journey. It honours that we are both spiritual and human at the same time and that we are really spiritual beings having a human experience – we are 'Sacred Humans'.

In total, 10 course modules in psychospiritual development are offered in the Discovering the Total Self Program. You can complete the program at your own pace, take more than one course at a time or take only those that interest you.

Course includes:

• Empowerment and spiritual maturity
• Prosperity, manifesting and creating miracles
• Higher purpose and vision
• Being of service in planetary healing
• The holographic brain, body and universe — understanding paranormal phenomena
• Quantum physics, string theory and multi-dimensionality
• Synchronicity — how the universe speaks to us
• Spiritual guidance by accessing higher realms of consciousness
• Inspirational speaking through the higher self

Length: 1 evening per week for 8 weeks, 7:00 to 9:30 pm unless otherwise noted

Tuition Fee:  0 per course + HST includes all material fees. Early registration is advisable to avoid disappointment. This course is HST exempt if it is part of a professional training program.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 11, 2013

Lou Lou Boutique (http://www.LouLouBoutiques.com) initially launched their 2 shop mini-chain in the DC-area in 2004 and since 2009 has expanded to 14 locations across New England. Lou Lou most recently announced their 15th and 16th store locations opening this summer in Washington, DC on L Street and on 14th Street NW. Working with One Step Retail Solutions (http://www.OneStepRetail.com) since 2012, Lou Lou aimed to create a seamless inventory system to manage their multiple locations for maximized profits and prepare for further expansion.

As this DC retailer rapidly expanded, they found their capabilities were stifled and they needed to have the ability to get a comprehensive overview of their inventory and product movement.

F Street Store Manager, Ruby Szilagi, offers some sage words of advice to her fellow retailers looking to implement a new point of sale system, words of wisdom: STICK WITH IT, dont drop it. One Step is so good at helping you, they are there with you every step of the way day and night.

When it comes down to functionality and payoff, Ruby says her favorite features in CounterPoint are the hot buttons, cutting down customers time at the cash register and minimizing lines. Additionally, as a manager, the ability to drill down into what you have on hand, what is en route and quickly tracking the merchandise has proved to be invaluable.

Being in one of the city stores we do have a lot of theft, [CounterPoint] is a good way to control that. I recently moved the watches once I found that was a big target. Additionally, I am able to realize exactly what was missing and file a report. It is really helpful for merchandising so you can keep an eye on everything.

The newest locations will open this summer in the Washington Square building on 1742 L Street and 14th Street NW, in the heart of the U Street corridor.

About One Step Retail Solutions

One Step Retail Solutions (http://www.OneStepRetail.com) was founded in 1985. With offices across the US, One Step Retail helps small to medium sized retailers attain their goals through effective technology solutions. A consultancy based partner to over 3,000 retailers nationwide.

CARES: Tools for Healthy Lifestyle Habits is a post from: Intervention Therapy

(PRWEB) June 14, 2013

Steve Moore from The Wall Street Journal reported on Fox News that many Americans will lose their current individual health insurance coverage as the roll out of Obamacare begins this fall. He is referring to the idea that the current individual health insurance plans that some people have today will not be in compliance with the essential health benefits and other criteria of the Affordable Health Care Act, commonly referred to as Obamacare. The conventional wisdom some insurance carriers and others are operating with is that the current health insurance plans that insureds have will be terminated by the health insurance carrier and replaced with a metallic health exchange plan.

Americas Health Insurance currently has health insurance carriers that are offering private individual health insurance plans that insureds will be able to keep until the next renewal date of that particular plan. In addition to this, some of these individual health insurance carriers will be offering rate holds on the plans that are purchased now until such time as the renewal date occurs. These health insurance products will not cancel at the end of this year and they will remain in-force through the year of 2014 upon renewal.

The other consideration the buying public needs to know about it is that Americas Health Insurance, LLC is hearing from health insurance carriers that the marketplace or exchange plans (so called metallic plans) will more than likely have very restrictive and/or reduced networks attached to them. The floated notion early on that the health insureds can keep their current doctors and/or hospitals may or may not be a reality.

Many of our carriers currently are offering health insurance plans that allow purchasers to choose more benefits, have more deductible choices, various coinsurance levels and various out of pocket levels. The really great news is that many of these plans will not be cancelled when the roll out of the Affordable Care Act occurs in the fall of this year. Insureds will be able to keep these plans that are fairly priced and include the benefits they want to buy until the plan renewal date of 2014. Even if insureds have coverage today, they may change to these types of plans.

Who should be interested in buying these plans with the rate holds? First, the youngthese plans should be a must, so people ages 19 to 35 would greatly benefit from these plans that can be purchased now. Secondly, individuals who have group coverage through their employer, but the employer makes them pay for the spouse/dependent coverage. Thirdly, a family who is not interested in maternity and not currently pregnant would benefit from the plans with the rate hold design. Fourthly, any age person up to Medicare age 65 who is considered healthy enough to go through medical underwriting, which in many cases, is more lenient now than before the legislation passed.

For more information about these plans and the purchasing of these plans, help is available at Americas Health Insurance at http://www.ahifw.com, or 1-888-589-3000.

Americas Health Insurance is a nation-wide health insurance agency located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. They are one of the top 3 health insurance producers in America. As the Affordable Care Act approaches, they are working innovatively to bring the best possible health care coverage for their clients. They have a strong relationship with the top insurance carriers in the country, which enables them to be on top of the health insurance market. This allows them to provide the absolute best products for their clients.

HomeThangs.com the Online Home Improvement Store has made their goal to deliver the right product to the consumer. With that in mind, shopping and home design tips, as well as special product selections are being introduced.

Kitchens have moved to the forefront of home design, and as such have become something of a venue for homeowners to express their personal style. This is showing up most noticeably in the increasingly common use of bright, bold colors. A cheerful palette makes for a more casual, personable kitchen, whether its in the form of an accent wall or a few small pieces of decor. With that in mind, HomeThangs.com has released a guide to the trendiest ways to add color to an existing kitchen.

1. Kitchen Range

The prevailing wisdom in kitchen design is that most appliances should be hidden, designed not just in neutral colors, but with panels to match the surrounding cabinetry. The one big exception is the kitchen range. While other kitchen appliances are blending into the background, ranges are starting to stand out, with bold, primary finishes that add a vibrant pop of color and can bring even an otherwise completely neutral kitchen decor to life.

2. Colorful Chairs

One of the simplest and most affordable ways to liven up a kitchen or dining space is with colorful chairs. Bold, brightly colored dining chairs or bar stools are a great way to add personality and pizzazz without overwhelming the space with color. Modern plastic chairs create a casual vibe, while vintage pieces add a nice retro flair (and can easily be mixed and matched).

3. Bright Backsplashes

Tile backsplashes have become hugely popular in the kitchen, and offer an excellent opportunity to infuse a kitchen with a little color and personality. A single, solid colored miniature accent wall can make a bold statement, while a mixture of multiple tile colors is a nice playful touch. Just be aware of the size of the tiles and the number and variety of colors too-small tiles or too many colors can make the wall look busy.

4. Kitchen Islands

A colorful kitchen island will create a bold contrast against simple wood or white cabinets, livening up the space without flooding it with color. This is an especially good option in a slightly smaller kitchen, where the island can act more as a statement piece. This is an excellent option for adding a significant amount of color without purchasing a large appliance or customizing all the kitchen cabinetry.

5. Eye Catching Lighting

Upgrading to colorful lighting fixtures is another simple, affordable way to incorporate color into an existing kitchen. Red milk-can style lights especially charming in a white, farmhouse style kitchen, but almost any colorful pendant light will work depending on the decor. Solid colors work best, and the effect is nicely amplified when the light is the same color as other decor items (large or small) scattered throughout the kitchen or dining area. Bright blue pendant lights are nice on their own, but with a matching vase, tea kettle, refrigerator magnets, and so on, it becomes a really lovely installment.

6. Replaceable Decor

For those who like to change up their decor frequently, it might be best to opt for smaller items that are more easily and inexpensively replaced. A colored glass soap dispenser, dish towels, a small piece of colorful statuary, colored plates stored in an open plate rack, and so on can all make a bold statement, but can be entirely altered in a few minutes and for under a hundred dollars. Fresh flowers or greenery or even fresh fruit are even more easily changed, and can add a vibrant, natural touch that ordinary decor simply can’t provide.

To see some of these techniques in action, read the full article here.

HomeThangs.com is not only a home improvement superstore, it also provides expert design tips and a comprehensive shopping guide, taking the ideas from professional interior designers, and offering tips to the consumers on how to pick the products to best suit their needs.

Colmbus, Ohio (PRWEB) June 24, 2013

If leadership makes a difference, then strategic leadership is the difference the difference between accomplishing organizational goals or not; the difference between thriving or failing through a global economic crisis; the difference between high-performing teams and stagnant ones. On September 25 -26, 2013, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio, the 2013 Strategic Leadership Summit is bringing together 300 global strategic leaders to share and learn the most innovative techniques designed to tackle the challenges that we face in todays markets and organizations. Featured keynote speaker and #1 New York Times bestselling author, Peter Guber, and opening keynote speaker and international selling author, Marilyn Tam, inform on the value contributions that distinguish strategic leaders.

A lineup of 26 highly accomplished executives, decision makers and management consultants from North America has been selected to speak during the event. The theme for 2013 is Own Your Power. According to Terina Allen, chair of ARVoices Strategic Leadership Network and president & CEO of ARVis Institute, Attendees will experience learning, sharing and networking at the deepest levels and leave with an understanding that they have the power, influence and ability to shape highly effective teams, to create the organizational cultures they want, and to improve organizational efficacy regarding service, profits, values, and outcomes.

The focus of strategic leaders extends beyond the role of having and communicating a vision to fully understanding, thinking about, planning, and executing the necessary strategy to realize it. You can download the full 36-page summit program here and view our leadership, management and executive whitepapers which have become some of the most viewed and hottest topics via Slideshare on LinkedIn.

The two-day summit provides three (3) keynote speakers, closing with Dr. James Bohn, global director of change management for Johnson Controls (recently retired) and publisher of groundbreaking research on organizational efficacy. Also offered are four (4) pre-summit workshops, twenty-four (24) strategic breakout sessions and (2) networking events. Members of the press are welcome.

Peter Guber, featured keynote speaker, states You cant win alone. The difference-maker in todays uncertain and lightening fast world is the strategic leader, who by owning her own power, incites and excites her team to perform to their highest potential contributing sustained competitive advantage to their organization.

In addition to leading Mandalay Entertainment Group, Guber is co-owner of the NBA’s Golden State Warriors; owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers; chairman of Dick Clark Productions; an entertainment and media analyst for Fox Business News; a professor at UCLA Anderson’s School of Management and the School of Theater, Film, Television and Digital Media; and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Tell to Win – Connect, Persuade, and Triumph with the Hidden Power of Story.

Opening keynote speaker, Marilyn Tam, says, In todays globally connected social and economic environment, we have to integrate and empower all available talent and wisdom to thrive and prosper. This is only possible when the leaders are strategic enough to listen and incorporate the input into their organizational plans to inspire and lead.

Tam is recognized as one of the top 30 female entrepreneurs by Fempreneur Magazine; Jack Canfield detailed her work in his book The Success Principles, Brand Channel calls her one of the four most prominent names in ethical business. Tam, an international selling author, recently released her latest book The Happiness Choice. She is the founder and executive director of Us Foundation, a contributor to Huffington Post, and a weekly radio show host. Former roles include serving as CEO of Aveda Corp., president of Reebok Apparel and Retail Group and vice president of Nike, Inc.

ARVoices was established by ARVis Institute, an international strategy, management consulting and executive development firm of six years based in Columbus, Ohio, as a platform for leaders to explore, decipher, and interpret the best concepts for achieving organizational excellence, anticipating and responding to change, and aligning organizational systems, processes, and people with enhanced services and profits.
