February 21st ~ Amatra Barbara May ~ "Loving It The Way It Is"
featuring music by Laurel Circle
"Loving it the way it is", a Psycho-Spiritual Emergence In the context of total acceptance of What Is and, that you are OK just as you are without fixing or changing anything about yourself and others, we will give up the need for regret and resentment about the past, and fear about the future. As Ram Dass said way back in 1972, and Echart Tolle teaches us today to embrace the practice of and freedom to BE HERE NOW.
Amatra Barbara May has been, since the late 1960's, on a path of self discovery, studying with many masters of the Psychology of Awakening. Over the years she has founded schools & centers for holistic healing arts. She created a unique approach as an innovative eclectic master body/mind therapist and ceremonialist and is considered to be a transformation facilitator. Amatra takes her participation to a more intimate level these days assisting people to Love their lives just as it is...a gracious and divine meditation in letting go, into capturing the esssence of the moment. Visit her website at: www.integratedbodymindtherapy.com
Following the service we will hold a ceremony to welcome new members, nominate and elect new board of trustee members, and hold our annual membership meeting where we will discuss the future of New Thought Center, a possible purchase of a new meeting site, and by-laws amendment. We are going high tech and high vis, so ideas and service are welcome. Bringing our New Thought community to the world so that we can share our aloha, is the goal. Please attend the meeting. We promise we won't disappoint.
As a mahalo for attending we will have a catered luncheon, curried vegetables with white and stir fried rice, green salad and assorted beverages.
February 28th ~ Andrea Pro ~
APPRECIATION AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT,
TOOLS TO DEEPEN
OUR CONNECTIONS WITH OTHERS
featuring music by Bernice Roberto
and Gourmet Potluck Luncheon
Telling others specifically what they do that we enjoy reveals what we
value and gives them an understanding of how they are contributing to
us. Using the tools and language of Compassionate Communication,
also known as NVC, we will explore specific and powerful ways to
express acknowledgement and appreciation in a way that contributes
to a heart-opening connection in relationships. I will lead participants in an experiential process of understanding needs that have been met for them and expressing to another in a way that deepens the quality of the relationship.
Compassionate Communication offers us a language, tools, and skills that lead to a shift in consciousness that allows us to connect to the divine energy of our own and others' needs. With this we experience our shared humanity. This quality of connection contributes to a genuine desire to contribute to one another, and supports us in navigating in skillful dialogue in which everybody's needs are considered.
Andrea Pro leads Compassionate Communication trainings and a weekly practice group in Kona. She has practiced Compassionate Communication for over six years and continues to experience transformative growth in her relationship with herself and others. She offers communication coaching to individuals, couples and organizations.
