BEGINNER'S WEEKEND SEMINAR WITH CHARLES MUIR

> Tantra Yoga Introduction & Puja | Jackson Wellsprings - SEPTEMBER 22nd (7 - 9pm)

> Beginner's Weekend Seminar: Tantra - The Art of Conscious Loving | RSVP for Location - SEPTEMBER 24th THROUGH 26th

The Beginner's Weekend Seminar will provide you with the education our culture never had and always needed in order to have wonderful, real, and lasting love. Whether you’re single or in relationship, discover the full potential of your sexual energy. Rather than a touchy-feely course about sex, Tantra: The Art of Conscious Loving is a spiritual, yet practical guide to being present and intimate with the most important person in your life. Sure, you will learn a lot of great sexual techniques, but only in the context of celebrating yourself, your partner, your love, and life itself, NOW is the time to embrace the master lover in you! Master Charles Muir and Leah Alchin use a down-to-earth, humorous, and candid approach to teaching the sexual arts while creating a safe environment for singles and couples (no nudity).

"I would like to take a moment to thank you so much for offering this seminar. I am the person in the women’s group who is married 33 years and was scared of the night’s homework on surrender. I have never experienced such a wonderful healing and it continues on! Amazing! Tears of sadness, rounds of orgasms, and expansiveness! It has been a truly and wonderful feeling of aliveness! Thank you so very much for a weekend that saved our marriage!" - Joyce F., Lawyer

"You treated us as whole people, with a full spectrum of emotions. All the exercises were perfect, meaningful, and contributed greatly to my experience. It was so honoring and respectful, and I could not believe how funny Charles was. Both of you made it so much fun. I definitely turned a corner, and I look forward to absorbing all I learned, and plan to read over the materials and 'practice' with other Conscious Singles!" - Mark S., Massage Therapist”

THE LIST CLASS - REALITY DYNAMICS

> The List Class, AKA Reality Dynamics with Marnie Hancock & Jann and Joe Timmrick | RSVP for Location - MEDFORD & ASHLAND - SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 26th & SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3rd

> Alumni Prosperity Class & Reunion | RSVP for Location - SEPTEMBER 19th (12 - 2pm)

You may ask, “Why The Reality Dynamics 'List'?" There are many “lists” in our world: our shopping list, our “To Do” list, or even our goal setting list, for those of us who have been attending many of the recent personal development books, movies and seminars.

The Reality Dynamics List, however, is the one and only, original, authentic and "true" "List Class," taught and proven for over 30 years as the only complete and fully effective technology for changing your reality.

Accept no substitutes! Taught and researched since 1975, to satisfied List Alumni all throughout Canada and the US, The List is a highly effective, wonderful, and powerful combination of theory and practice. Developed by the internationally renowned founders, Jann and Joe Timmreck, The Reality Dynamics List is considered by Alumni to be simply “the best” of any personal development programs ever attended.

"The LIST is the most important tool that I've ever acquired anywhere." - Kathleen Ross, West Coast USA, Real Estate & Marketing Businesses, Owner

DISCOVER YOUR TRUE SELF WITH MUKTI - SATSANG & SILENT RETREAT

> Satsang: Discover Your True Self with Mukti | First United Methodist Church of Ashland, 175 N. Main - ASHLAND, OREGON - SEPTEMBER 29th & 30th (7 - 9pm)

> Satsang: Discover Your True Self with Mukti | Trinity Episcopal Church - St. Helens Hall, 231 NW Idaho - BEND, OREGON - October 1st (7 - 9pm)

> One-Day Silent Retreat: Discover Your True Self with Mukti | Trinity Episcopal Church - St. Helens Hall, 231 NW Idaho - BEND, OREGON - October 2nd (9:30am - 5:30pm)

Mukti, whose name is translated as “liberation,” is a teacher in the lineage of Adyashanti, her husband. Prior to 1996, when she began studying the nondual, Zen-flavored teachings of Adyashanti, Mukti studied the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda for over 20 years. In her own teachings, Mukti points audiences back to their natural state of wholeness or undivided consciousness. Licensed in acupuncture and certified to teach hatha yoga, Mukti has a love of the whole, in form as well as the formless.

What is the most essential you that is present regardless of thought or emotion? Who or what has been present for all of your life experience? How does this spirit of constancy touch your life? Mukti will speak on these compelling topics at her evening satsang and follow with questions and answers pointing directly to the true nature of Self.

The one-day retreat will offer a potent blend of stillness and dynamic inquiry, with three short satsangs interspersed with periods of silent meditation. Outside of satsang, the retreat will be held in silence. Please bring a bag lunch or plan to eat at a restaurant nearby. Chairs will be provided. You may bring a backjack or cushion for floor seating. We suggest you wear comfortable clothes.

Coming up this November in Chico, California:

BIRTH INTO BEING BIRTHSHOP & APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING WITH ELENA TONETTI

> LEVEL 1 and/or LEVEL 2 (Two and/or Four-Day): Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop with Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova | RSVP for Location - CHICO, CALIFORNIA - NOVEMBER 12th & 13th OR 12th THROUGH 15th

> LEVEL 1 (Three-Day): Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop with Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova | RSVP for Location - PORTLAND, OREGON - OCTOBER 1st THROUGH 3rd

> LEVEL 1 and LEVEL 2 (Four-Day): Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop with Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova | RSVP for Location - TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA - OCTOBER 15th THROUGH 18th

LEVEL 1:  Birthshop Level 1 (2 days) $360 per person  ($50 discount for a couple, plus additional $50 discount for early registration a month prior to the event).

The 2-Day Birthshop is for anyone who was born into less than blissful circumstances and would like to change the way it is affecting them in the Present. It is not only for pregnant women, but for all interested in shifting their behavioral patterns. The way we were born defines the quality of our experience of being alive, as shown by 25 years of research in the field of prenatal psychology.  How we access and use our creativity is a reflection of our emotional experiences during our early formative period, from conception through the first years of life. Unfortunately, the great majority of people on our planet were born through suffering, thus "limbically imprinted" to struggle. Read more...

LEVEL 2: Birthshop Levels 1 & 2 (4 days) $700 per person  ($50 discount for a couple, plus additional $50 discount for early registration a month prior to the event)

The 4-Day workshop offers more of the processes and exercises that build on the experiences from Level 1, where the group focused on pre-conception, conception, gestation and birth. On Days 3 and 4 we will focus on what happens afterwards. We’ll create new reference points in the nervous system that will allow a new quality of attention, range of attitudes, perceptions and expanded experience of happiness. From that place, every aspect of life improves - all that we are and do, including the people-making capacity. Read more...

> LEVEL 3 (Ten-Day):  Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop & Apprenticeship Training | RSVP for Location - CHICO, CALIFORNIA - NOVEMBER 12th THROUGH 21st

LEVEL 3:  Apprenticeship Training (10 days) $1500 per person ($100 discount for a couple, plus an additional $100 discount for early registration two months prior to the event)

"The emphasis of this training entails a profound personal alignment with the Birthing Field, and learning the skills of navigating one’s energy within the intensity of situation, whatever the source of intensity is (including giving birth to a child or witnessing one). Also I will teach my techniques and certify the attendants as "Birth Into Being" birthshop facilitators at the end of the 10 day intensive. We now have 64 BIB facilitators in 14 countries.

The certificate will state that after completion of the Apprenticeship, the bearer is qualified to conduct 'Birth Into Being' workshops, of his or her own design - which utilizes the new awareness and skills, yet allows room to bring forth the individual's specific strengths and preferences. It is not 'one size fits all' approach; it is more of a courage and  freedom to be creative and spontaneous.  Working with the Birthing Field does not require a rigid structure, it is the quality of presence that we need to learn.

    “Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.” - Anthony Robbins
