Finding the Door to Your Inner Guide
0 Comments Published June 14th, 2007 in Neuro-Linguistics Programming.On the evening of July 23 and again on August 2, I will be facilitating an experience in “Finding the Door to Your Inner Guide.” Participants will “meet with” the “Spirit of infinite love and wisdom” that is available to guide us in not only day to day activities but also in making major decisions. The “Spirit of Infinite love and wisdom” is that within us that makes it possible for us to survive, to successfully navigate our way through the lowest lows and highest highs of life. Learning how to easily and quickly access this guide makes it possible for us to act in harmony or syncrinistically with this power within. Not only will participants have an experience in meeting with this guide, but will also learn how to gain access to this guide easly and quickly in most any situation.
Join ue in this experience at 7:00 to 8:15 PM at the Feldenkrais Within studio located at 4124 Hamilton Ave. in Northside. Class fee is $15. For a complete schedule cost for the entire Summer Flex Series, check out our web site www.futurelifenow.com
Reading the Eyes and Speaking the Language
0 Comments Published June 14th, 2007 in Neuro-Linguistics Programming.The originators of Neuro Linguistics Programming, Richard Bandler and John Grinder, discovered, through observing clients of Virginia Satir, that people move their eyes in a certain way to access a specific kind of information and in a different way to access different information. They also discovered that had a preferred way in which to process information and to dissiminate information. That is some people are much more “visual” than others, while others may prefer “auditory” or “kinesthetic” information. If I can determine your preferred method for processing information, I have an advantage in communicating with you because I can intentionally “speak your language” or “see things your way” or help you “see things as I see them.” In addition, I may discover that I am actually attempting to solve a problem using a “language” that is not very helpful. For example, if I’m trying to find my car keys, it’s much more useful to visualize where they last were or what my activities were when I last had them than it is to try to talk to myself about where they might be. Seeing addresses or phone numbers in my mind is a more effecient way of remembering than trying to remember how the numbers sound when I say them.

Designer States of Excellence
0 Comments Published June 14th, 2007 in Neuro-Linguistics Programming.Each of us have had experiences in which, in retrospect, we wish we’d had access to a more useful “state of being” (e.g. more confident, more relaxed, etc.). We also have had those experiences in which we knew in advance of a stituation what “state of being” we wanted to have, but “lost it” when we actually got into the situation. An example I might know that I need to be “cool, calm and collected” when I go in to talk to my boss or when I meet with a subordinate to give “constructive advice” but am unable to get to or maintain that state when the conversation actually takes place.
What if one could learn a method by which he or she could decide what state would be most useful in a situation (whether the situation is anticipated or arises spontaneously) and be able to access and maintain that state quickly and easily? That’s the proposed outcome of our “Designer States of Excellence” class. Participants will learn how to access and “anchor” chosen states of being so that they become easily accessible.
Join us for “Designer States of Excellence” on August 16 from 6:30 to 7:45 PM at the Feldenkrais Within studio located at 4124 Hamilton Ave. in Northside. Class fee is $15. For a complete schedule cost for the entire Summer Flex Series, check out our web site www.futurelifenow.com
For those who have heard of integral theory but haven’t really delved into studying it, cursory overview can be gleaned from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_theory assuming you follow through with checking out most of the links (four quadrants especially). The best way to get a good introduction is to read Ken Wilber’s books A Theory of Everything, A Brief History of Everything, and Sex, Ecology and Spirituality. There are all kinds of information on the internet about Ken Wilber, integral theory and Spiral Dynamics.
I am finally getting around to learning how to “Blog.” Over the next days and weeks, I will be posting thoughts, ideas and “articles” in a variety of areas of integral theory and practice (Wilberian integral theory) as it relates to organizations and organizational development, spirituality and spiritual development, integral Christianity, interpersonal relationships and health/wellness issues. I will also be referencing and/or applying the theory and practice of Spiral Dynamics as described in Beck and Cowan’s book SPIRIAL DYNAMICS and as Beck teaches in his Spiral Dynamics seminars.
My intent is to use this site as a means of promoting my own (and perhaps others’) personal and professional development by learning from the comments and reactions of those who read and respond to postings. I hope to engage in dialogue (not to be confused with argument) with those who have interests in these areas.
So, I hope to post something in one or more of these categories within the next few days.
