Couple's Communication Retreat: Fall in Love Again!

More satisfying than the corniest fairy tale, is a relationship based in openness, trust and unconditional love. It all starts with communication! This private Couple's Communication Retreat will train the two of you in the practical use of extraordinary tools for letting go of past hurts and pain, allowing forgiveness to arise; making clear requests that eliminate guesswork; uncovering the mystery and treasure that is your Partner; building trust and unconditional love. (Note: this is NOT marriage counseling.)

Turning Complaints to Commitments: Uncover Your Passions!

Complaints – we all have ‘em, whether they’re spoken out loud or kept in our head. Sometimes we feel down right whiny! Couldn’t we be more positive? But what if our complaints are cries for attention from a much deeper part of ourselves? What if our complaints are signals from our deepest selves? Uncover the buried commitments, dreams and personal needs that you may be neglecting. Examine the habits that are ingrained ways of thinking and keep your complaints in place and your dreams unrealized. Leave the class with concrete ideas for what you want in your life!

Extraordinary Customer Service: BE the Cutting Edge!

Business owners, managers and service providers: You already know that no matter how much you spend on advertising, word of mouth is still your greatest (and cheapest) form of advertising. We’ll examine the following questions: What is extraordinary customer service? How do you/your employees talk and act in front of your customers? Who are your customers? What do people say about your work in your community? What kind of reputation do you want? How will you achieve that? Leave the session with a wealth of ideas to bring to back to your work!

Great Communications: Making Requests that Work!

"I can't ask for that!" "No one listens to me, so why bother?" The ability to communicate powerfully and clearly, in a way that works, often seems an elusive dream. Asking for what we need brings anxiety for many of us. Being able to make clear requests impacts relationships, careers, home and dreams. Explore the blocks to effective speaking, what's behind the language we use and what messages people are "hearing" under our words. Design genuine ways of speaking that deepen relationship, express what you need and produce satisfying results for all involved.

Prosperity and Passion: Making a Break for Freedom!

Many of us experience life as a daily struggle to "just get by," financially, emotionally and physically, with a smattering of happy moments thrown in. Living with a sense of joy and abundance, expressing our deepest passions, feeling satisfied and fulfilled are powerful goals, but the gap between that and "real life" may seem all too wide. Open yourself to new ways of viewing your life and circumstances that attracts abundance and nurtures your passionate Self. Take home new possibilities for action and fun!

Tacky Art: Unleash Your Creativity!

Unlock Your Creativity through the crazy, surprising, paradigm-shifting world of Tacky Art!

Play with glue, glitter, beads, paper, scissors and tacky wacky materials of the wildest kind! Forget your “adultness” and let loose the free-spirited, anything’s possible kid inside! Since everything and anything turns out TACKY and FUN, there’s no way to “fail.” Discover how freedom of expression can be brought to all areas of your life!
