SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS!!

Go Giants!! I always love the finals in sports. It is so inspiring to watch athletes play at the top of their game. Whoever they have to be, whatever they have to say to themselves, the stories that run them, they have worked so hard to get there, and there they are in this golden moment having achieved everything they had dreamed of. It moves one to tears. The contagion of the joy and the celebration that follows brings all of us together into community. If you think about it, it’s a little like the intention of network. If everyone got care, if everyone took off the layers of protection and just found that true joy on the inside, what a celebration life would be! Batter up??? (Sorry, couldn’t help myself)

GRATITUDE

It wouldn’t be November without talking about gratitude. So, to jump right in, thanks to all of you for being a part of the practice, for trusting me with who you are and who you have been and who you are becoming. It is truly a privilege to be a part of the process. Part of what inspires me more than anything else is seeing people wake up to who they really are and be more inspired and alive than ever before. To get there means feeling it all, the pain, the sorrow, the curiosity, the willingness, the courage, the fear.  That rawness is potent and inspiring. Thank you.

GIFT CERTIFICATES

Gift certificates are available during this holiday season. November and December are both good months to give the gift of health, healing, and inspiration to those you care about. I love working with families, couples, and communities.  And having your communities in care supports you, them, us.  Give the gift of health this season.  Be bold.  You can!

SAN FRANCISCO GATE

Coming soon! December 3-5, 2010, in our very own Bay Area, the next Transformational Gate. If you have been through Level One of care you are eligible to attend the gate. To learn more go to http://www.wiseworldseminars.com/seminars/hrworkshops/transgate.html. If there were some way I could give you a taste of this experience and the potential it would have in your life I would, but it’s kind of like describing the taste of a strawberry. Can anyone do that? I wish you would all spend the weekend there with me, enjoying in each others company, laughter, tears and love. Would you please join me?

TIBETAN PULSING

I will be going off to a Tibetan Pulsing weekend in Germany November 18th. Tibetan Pulsing is a form of bodywork that I love. I like it so much because it drops you so deeply into your body and it is a long weekend of quiet, good company, good food, and getting access to more of you. It is very congruent with NSA. And in June, just so you can mark your calendars, we will be having two weekends of this work here at the Vitality Center. I am very much looking forward to introducing Tibetan Pulsing to whomever might be interested. For more information you can look it up at: http://www.tibetan-pulsing.org/english/index.html

DON’T SURRENDER YOUR LONELINESS SO QUICKLY

Don’t surrender your loneliness

So quickly.

Let it cut more deep.

Let it ferment and season you

As few human

Or even divine ingredients can.

Something missing in my heart tonight

Has made my eyes so soft,

My voice

So tender.

My need of God

Absolutely

Clear.

~Shams-ud-din Muhammad Hafiz (c. 1320-1389)

HEALING MYTHS, HEALING MAGIC

Healing Myth…“Healing means liking my experience and agreeing with the outcome.”  Healing Magic…“I love and honor my body, even when I don’t like my experience. When physical symptoms or pain arise, I pay attention and accept them without judgment. The messages of my body are perfectly timed for my healing. I listen to the rhythms and the messages of my body, and attend to its needs with compassion.”

NUMEROLOGY READINGS

Find out how the numbers around you impact your life!  Are you a 5 living in a 4 house? Are you an 8 trapped in a 2 job?  Fabulous Astro-Numerology Readings can tell you about your current life path, ideal careers, what the year holds, best/worst places to live and more.  As we prepare to transition into a new year a reading can provide an opportunity to review where we’ve come from and insight into the coming year.

Some of you may know that our own Tarita is a 3rd generation intuitive that has been reading numbers since 1996.  This holiday season she is expanding her practice to offer her Numerology experience at your holiday parties.  Floating readings are a fun and intimate way to spice up any gathering.  Tarita offers amazingly accurate insights in a warm, light and conversational style.  To schedule a reading give her a call at 415-504-4809.

DISCOVER WORKSHOP

Well, we just finished our Discover Workshop with Jeannie, and it was very inspiring, graceful, loving, and left a beautiful sense of community for me. I personally am discovering about myself how much I love community, and how much I thrive in community. I also notice how much others thrive in community as well. Sometimes we think that we are not comfortable around a lot of people, or that we prefer solitude, and prefer to stay introverted. However, I suggest you look again, are there barriers that are protecting you, hence keeping you solo, fears perhaps of not being liked? In the past I had never considered myself someone who loved community, even though it was clear I did. It was at the Ultimatum program where Donny pointed this out to me that almost gave me permission to dive deeper into this. I know it may seem simple, but what I find the most uplifting about being in community is the opportunity to really GIVE. So much of the time we traverse this life alone, and even in partnership we can still feel alone, and seeing people light up because of the support they are receiving around them is inspiration. So I invite you all to step one foot deeper into our network community. Give to people who need support, feel the joy of being around conscious, transforming souls. Offer your gifts, and open to receiving gifts from others.

TRANSFORMATIONAL GATE COMING TO SAN FRANCISCO!

I realize that just about every newsletter seems to have a plug for the gate. Given that there are two a year in Colorado, two a year in Como, Italy, and one on the east coast, there is a lot to inform you of. BUT, this one is in our neighborhood (sort of) at the Westin Hotel in Burlingame near the airport. They don’t get much closer than that, no travel expenses, no hotel (unless you choose to stay there, which can be fun). The cost of the gate is just under $600 and it is a weekend of growth. Friday night Donny gives a most eloquent, uplifting, talk. He is quite the comedian, genius, and wizard, and even if you can’t make it to the gate you should mark your calendars for December 3rd and show up for the Friday night talk. Plan to be there by 7:30pm. Saturday and Sunday you receive three entrainments each day, some SRI, some singing/chanting, and some kind of movement. Saturday is working in Discover and Transform, and Sunday is working in Transform and Awaken. At the end of the gate you get to experience the most beautiful, loving, light parts of yourself, and share that in great community. It would make me so happy to have you all attend. I know that might be pushing it, but I hope many, many of you can come! I will definitely be there. Sometimes I work on staff at this one.  So one way or another I will be there, whether as a recipient, or entrainer.

CHANGE OF SEASON/FLU BUSTER

So while we all get to enjoy the hot days and summer we never had, it is an odd time for our bodies to acclimate to such extreme changes in temperature, and some people do find themselves symptomatic. It is a great time to purchase another bottle of Sarada’s Flu Buster that we carry in the office. I am a great fan of this stuff. I take it whenever I feel a little scratchy in my throat. I give it to my kids, and they are very willing to take it. And many practice members really love it, so if you haven’t purchased any it is great to have on hand at this time of year.

MY WEEKEND IN SEATTLE

A few Fridays ago I spent my weekend in the Queen Workshop: Women Embracing Power and Ecstasy. It was really great work. I honed in on my noble qualities (what I want people to feel because I am around.) I learned about creating better boundaries so that I am taking care of the people in my village and have the resources and energy to feel and embody those qualities and therefore exude and share them, while not loosing my energy on places and people where it isn’t necessary. It is hard to write this all in one paragraph but her work (Allison Armstrong) is so practical and useful and simple. If you have any interest, check out understandmen.com. The first workshop I did with her really shifted my relationship with men in a phenomenal way.  If you want to know more, please ask me.

GIVE, GIVE, AND GIVE SOME MORE

And in closing for this month, I invite you all to dive into the practice of giving. (I am not talking about money.) If you are having a hard time, feeling bad, or are completely focused on yourself, try to make a switch.  Look and see where you can give and contribute to others. And see how that changes your state of mind. Play with it. It may work sometimes, and other times it may not. But either way, BEGIN the game.

With so much love and gratitude,

Jane

If you would like to join me in spreading this work into the community I have designed some gift certificates for the holiday season.

  • The gift certificate offers the intake first visit at no charge.

  • It is a gift from me, and a gift from you to them.

Please ask Jennifer for a gift certificate. The expiration is January 31st, so I hope that you can find two or three people to explore the possibility of this work.

Just make sure to sign your name on the certificate itself.

I look forward to serving your community and friends!

YouTube and SRI

September 12th, 2009 · 12:00 pm  →  Blog

Linda Bedessian used to work here, and is now in the LA area, and she goes through Stage 1 of SRI so you can use this both for yourself and to show your friends:

I don’t know how many of you use Youtube, but if you find you are trying to tell a friend about network, and you just can’t find the right words, there are more and more videos about network. Check them out!

Sunlight is Healing

September 10th, 2009 · 12:00 pm  →  Blog

SunlightVitamin D has been studied for its ability to prevent cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, and colon cancer – and new research shows it might fight pancreatic cancer – the 4th leading cause of cancer deaths in the US.

Just a few minutes of natural sunlight helps your body synthesize vitamin D. Other sources of Vitamin D:

  • eggs (buy organic from free range chickens, of course)
  • liver
  • fatty fish such as salmon, sardines, herring
  • raw milk*

* We don’t recommend pasteurized, low fat or skim milk as good sources since artificially added Vitamin D is not in its natural balance and is not used as well by your body.

The natural sources are the best.

Remorphing Your Wardrobe

September 8th, 2009 · 12:00 pm  →  Blog

And as you find yourself transforming on the inside, it is a good time to start becoming aware of what you are wearing on the outside.

Does your clothing still match the you that you are becoming? In most cases you will find clothing on yourself that just doesn’t feel like the new you.

Assemble your “old you” clothing and create a clothing swap with your friends. Stepping into the upgraded version of you feels most complete, whole, and inspiring!

Inner Connection, Outer Beauty

September 7th, 2009 · 12:00 pm  →  Blog

When people are speaking passionately and are in a creative “zone” or a state of well being, they may appear more beautiful and vibrant, perhaps even glowing. It makes sense that those who are the most productive, creative, adaptable, and vibrant should be the most attractive to others of the species. When the “shoulds” of our culture–the stories that others have for who we need to be and how we must act–become the main determinants of our life, we have already compromised our inner connection and our physical, psychological, and energetic attractiveness suffers. Remain attractive and enticing to be with. People whose inner connection to their body and its emotions, to their purpose, to the life energy that animates them, and to the web.

SRI and Your Homework!

September 4th, 2009 · 12:00 pm  →  Blog

I am sure that some of you know how useful SRI is as a tool for you to use at home, and gain greater connection, and reduce stress. For those of you who might have forgotten, here is an assignment for all of you that I think will be helpful wherever you are at with your SRI.

Start with Stage 1

  • Breath in your nose and out your mouth in the three different positions.
  • Decide which of the three areas has the most peace. Work at this area.
  • Spend a few breaths at that area focusing on the following separately;
  • Breath, Movement, and Energy.
  • Decide which of the three makes the greatest impact for peace in the area.
  • Does breath, movement or energy cause the greatest change?
  • You want to identify your own personal order.

Breath, Movement, Energy?
Or Movement, Energy, Breath?
Or Energy, Breath, Movement?

Familiarizing yourself with this will enable you to be more efficient in your own SRI at home, and I will also utilize this during your entrainments.

So, experiment, and please, let me know what you find.
