We Can End This Now

The estimates of loss of life as a result of the earth quake and tsunami in Japan are at 17,000 souls and expected to reach 25,000. My heart goes out to all the people of Japan and their global family.

I wonder when we will finally awake, become aware and internalize that each and EVERY day, at least 25,000 people die of hunger and starvation, needlessly and that we can end this situation now?

The other day I saw an estimate that the cost of rebuilding all of what has been destroyed in Japan will be in the neighborhood of 256 Billion Dollars.

Would you find it interesting that according to Forbes, the top 25 wealthiest people in the world could accomplish that without even using half of their assets?

Testimonials

Constant awareness of how I approach others, and how I hold them when I approach them, has been a really revelatory concept for me. In some respects, it has given words to something I had always been doing, and in others it has significantly increased my ability and willingness to do this all the time.

For me this is probably the most “radical” change in my life.
Gareth Davies | Capetown, South Africa

[This course] is one of only a few that had real life applications that helped prepare me to teach
Gina Martin | Springfield, MA

Thinking about standards boundaries, things I tolerate and things that excite me are all very powerful and things we should but likely would not do unless prompted like this!
Maureen Clancy | Portland, ME

Through this course I began “living” the beliefs. I demonstrated them more naturally and comfortably. Instead of having to remind myself, I began innately “becoming” that inspired teacher I always had in me but only called upon at certain times. I changed. I am complete in every area of my life.
Maureen Oswald | Jay, Maine

With each session, the conversation became easer and easier to grasp and experience. This was primarily resulting from the mounting proof that the conversation was real and true…it is the holistic nature of the conversation, as one conversation, that makes the process so satisfyingly effective.
Roy Chatterjee | Portland, ME

My entire world has changed and I see things a lot differently today than I did before I began this process…I’m a lot more grounded and am learning how my self-care allows me to take better care of myself so I can be a better leader to my team; lead by example.
