</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.manzanitavillage.org/meditation-retreats-california-information/calendar-of-retreats-and-workshops/#Quick_Links_2a"><span style="color: #000080;"><img class="alignleft" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="NLP Training" src="http://www.nlpalchemy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/expect_miracles1.jpg" alt="" width="205" height="205" />April 2-3, 2011</span></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"> </span></p>
<p>&#8220;Change doesn&#8217;t happen by doing different things. it happens by doing things differently. It&#8217;s not <em><strong>what</strong> </em>you do, it&#8217;s <em><strong>how </strong></em>you do it!&#8221;</p>
<p>Living a life that brings you deep person satisfaction, creativity, and happiness depends on your openness to learning new ways of doing and being- on deep inner flexibility and openness.</p>
<p>The question is: How much longer are you prepared to go on repeating yourself and getting results, that you know are much less than you are capable of?</p>
<p>The tools we will teach you in this weekend intensive are modeled on the skills, mindset, and inner strategies &#8212; for creativity, communication, excellence, and attainment of the best of the best .. Einstein, the Buddha, Nelson Mandela, Carlos Ghosn, Richard Branson, Rumi, Harriet Tubman ..</p>
<p>This two-day introduction to NLP in Los Angeles April 2-3 will NOT give you a new model for how to live, it will give you a key<br />
to creating your own model &#8211;one that is flexible, creative and responsive to the actual circumstances of your life ..</p>
<p>Register now to receive a $500 discount on our NLP <a href="http://www.nlpalchemy.com" class="alinks_links" title="NLP Alchemy Course">certification training</a> April-June</p>
<p>Caitriona and Michele</p>
<p>&#8220;Some people say they haven&#8217;t yet found themselves.<br />
But the self is not something one finds;<br />
it is something one creates.&#8221;<br />

		<description><![CDATA[There may be two critical elements missing. 1. The means to get the word out on a large scale. 2. The means to clarify, sharpen and refine the vision, so that the message comes across loud and clear. [...]]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am astonished by the countless number of creative people I meet with powerful innovative ideas.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-529" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="conscious leadership training international" src="http://www.manzanitavillage.org/images_mv/earthview.jpg" alt="conscious leadership training international" /></p>
<ul>
<li>To effect positive change</li>
<li>To create a new business</li>
<li>To provide a service, product, or information conduit than could have a profound positive impact on people&#8217;s lives</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;ve been meeting lots of people with solid integrity and a wealth of creative potential who still feel blocked from contributing on the scale they would like.</p>
<p>Perhaps you are one of them? Are you someone with creative solutions that you are not yet implementing or using to full advantage? Are you frustrated at not getting the full power of your work-message-solution out there where it belongs?</p>
<p>If so, there may a couple of missing pieces that you can add fairly easily.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Two </strong></span><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>missing </strong></span><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>elements. An integrated approach to successful marketing.<br />
</strong></span></p>
<ol>
<li>The means to get the word out to an audience that can benefit from your message.</li>
<li>The means to clarify, sharpen and refine your vision, so that your message comes across loud and clear.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Number one </span></strong>- how to create a fully functioning website, give it visibility, promote it using the array of means that are available, and gather a list of people interested in what you have to offer. Also, how you can use social media to it&#8217;s best advantage, and how you can make use of press releases, blogs, videos etc.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Number two</strong></span> &#8211; how to create and refine your vision, get out of your own way, develop a viable plan. and obliterate any emotional or logistical obstacles that are in your way. In other words, how to create the mindset to utilize these tools and make it all work. And then to GET DOWN and make it happen!</p>
<p>Regardless of where you are in your career, if your work and skills are as important as you <strong>know </strong>them to be, how much longer can you afford wait before getting it out there on the scale you know it deserves? Don&#8217;t you owe it to yourself and others to make your best talents and perspectives accessible?</p>
<p>Conscious Leadership Training Global looks forward with excitement to the <a href="http://www.nlpalchemy.com" class="alinks_links" title="Intensive Training-Certification in Hypnosis and NLP">trainings</a> we will be kicking off in Sydney in April and May of 2010 that will specifically address <strong>your </strong>ability to make <strong>your</strong> important work available in ways that allow others to take full advantage of it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<ol>
<li><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Personal Development.</span> </strong><br />
Skills to be in the world, skills for communication, skills to change habits and attitudes when they no longer serve you<strong><span style="color: #800000;"> </span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Spiritual practices that truly open your heart</span></strong><br />
unencumbered by inflexible belief systems<strong></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #800000;">A driving hunger for social and environmental justice</span></strong><br />
with a world-view that is open, that includes multiple perspectives, even when they may contradict each other. (the open-heart again, though <span style="text-decoration: underline;">not</span> att the expense of clear thinking).<strong><span style="color: #800000;"></span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><code></code>The power to leverage real-world skills</span></strong><br />
to make an income, to communicate with others, to make a difference.<br />
(Money is a reality, a form of energy. Did you ever try raising a family without it?)</li>
<li><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Creativity that lets you put it all together</strong> </span><br />
in your own unique way. The way you think, write, paint, garden, play music, move -it&#8217;s all art!</p>
