Real Happiness Program Provides Experiential

Training Leading to Spiritual Mastery

   As we move into our hearts, our intuition is awakened. We know without knowing how we know. We no longer need to try to figure things out in advance.  We can let life unfold naturally. We begin to move with the current instead of against it. Things happen when they are ready to happen and we are content to let them evolve without pressure on ourselves or others. We become more patient, more attentive to the gifts each moment spontaneously brings. 
     We stop forcing and begin allowing. We dance, we explore, we play. We enjoy the process and stop obsessing on the goal. We learn to let go of selfish desires and to look for outcomes that honor everyone.  We forgive and allow ourselves to be forgiven. 
     We restore the heart connection between us and others.  We connect with animals, planets, rivers, mountains, with the incredible beauty and majesty of the natural world.  We learn to live in harmony with all beings. We become good stewards of the earth and compassionate caretakers of all the life-forms that live upon it.  We honor life and cooperate with it. 
     We are not perfect.  We still make mistakes. But we learn from our mistakes and hold our imperfection with great gentleness and compassion. We walk with an open heart and an open mind.  We show up when we are needed.  We extend our love to those who need it without conditions. 

How do we Achieve Real Happiness and Spiritual Mastery?

We all have the potential to be spiritual masters, but we will not realize that potential if we do not commit to a spiritual practice. A practice helps us internalize spiritual principles so that we make them operative in our lives. It is not enough to “know the truth.”  We must “be the truth.”  Spiritual practice takes us from “knowing the truth” to “being the truth.”  It creates an integration between head and heart.
     Thirty plus years of heart-centered spiritual work have taught me what is necessary to bring about a real, lasting change in consciousness and experience. I have designed this intensive program in spiritual mastery to give you the experience and support that you need to wake up without having to abandon your present life.
     However, that does not mean that your life will continue on automatic pilot.  Many changes will result from your commitment to spiritual practice.  The shift will happen first on the inside and then on the outside, as the rest of your life comes into alignment with the new energy that you learn to embody. Everything that is not in harmony with the truth of your essence will begin to fall away. For most this will be a gentle and gradual process.  For some, it will happen more quickly, because they are ready, or because change is long overdue.
     As one who achieves mastery you will discover your life purpose and begin actively pursuing it. You will be doing what you love to do, expressing your talents and abilities and helping others to grow and to heal. Your family of origin wounds will begin healing, along with the unworthiness attached to them , and you will relinquish victim consciousness and co-dependent relationships.  As you take back your power, you will create new relationships that honor you based on equality and mutual respect, abandon shame and blame, and be actively creating relationships of mutual love and acceptance. 
     You will gradually come into the fullness of your power and purpose as a human being.
In the words of Abraham Maslow, you will “self actualize.” Because you have the courage to be yourself, you will model the healing and empowerment process for others.  You will become the doorway through which others move to reclaim their innocence and their gifts and you will support and cheer them as they develop the confidence to offer those gifts in the world.
     As Jesus told us, we are meant to be in the world but not of the world. We are meant to be bringers of love to our own experience and that of others.   We are the peacemakers who will help to make our world a better place.   Because we have healed our wounds and offered our gifts, we can actively assist in the collective shift of human consciousness on the planet from fear to love. 

“Your healing is not just for you. It is for all of us.
Your capacity to embody unconditional love
will be instrumental in enabling human consciousness on our planet
to make the quantum shift from fear to love.”

 Three components of Real Happiness (Head, Heart, Hands)

• Understanding and correction of false beliefs that arise from our Core Wound.
• Emotional healing and psychological Integration.
• Creative expression of your talents and gifts and service to your community

Benefits of the Real Happiness Training Program

The overall goal of the Real Happiness Training Program is to help you shift your consciousness from fear to love and empower others to do the same. In the process of making this shift, you will accomplish the following:

• identify and heal your core wounds, core beliefs, and reactive behavior patterns
• begin to heal with others in an atmosphere of unconditional love and acceptance
• learn to love yourself radically and reclaim your innocence
• release deep-seated shame and feelings of unworthiness
• shift out of victim consciousness and relinquish abusive or codependent relationships
• take responsibility for your thoughts, feelings, words and actions
• establish healthy boundaries in your relationships
• overcome isolation, stop pushing love away, and connect with a spiritual family that can support you in coming into your full empowerment as a human being  

All of this will not be accomplished at once.  But every retreat, teleconference, affinity group, and mentoring session you participate in will intensify your experience and lead you into deeper and deeper layers of healing. Some of the fruits of this work are:

• an open heart (removing the walls and blocks to love) 
• greater capacity to give and receive love without conditions and create relationships of mutual love and acceptance
• capacity to experience with God in both masculine and feminine expressions        
• ability to actualize your creative potential and do what you love to do without fear or apology
• ability to understand your life purpose and the confidence to pursue it

   The ultimate goal of the Mastery process is to prepare you to step into your role as a teacher of love and a beacon of light in your community. You are there as a guide to help others open their hearts and walk through their fears. You are there to be at peace and guide others to that place of peace in their hearts and in the world.
