If you’re finding it hard to keep up; or if you’re wondering how else you can move through this sometimes challenging time of year, take a quiet moment and let yourself explore what other aspects of yourself you might want to bring to life this year.  With Louise LeBrun as your guide, take the time to consider how your Holiday Season can be more meaningful, more relaxed and an invitation for you to discover more of who you can become.

Take a moment… take a breath… and visit the Holiday Season Survival Kit on YouTube.  You’ll be glad you did!

Pat was joined by Anita Allen and Louise LeBrun, co-creators and contributing authors of this compelling and provocative invitation to reconsider the process of parenting.  In the company of many from the community who are committed to making a difference in the lives of all children, Louise spoke to the power of a WEL-Systems® perspective to deliver on the search for transformation; Anita shared many of the moving and compelling moments of her life that led to initiating this project; and Pat read from her chapter and spoke to her unwavering determination to create a world that honors the potential of all children.

The afternoon was filled with the best of all conversations : the ones that awaken curiosity and possibility in us all!  Many left with multiple copies of Guardians of the Vision, tucked securely under one arm.  We know what the people they care about are getting for Christmas!

Be sure to join Louise and Amy McNaughton in Halifax on Sunday, November 8th, where Amy will be hosting an event to introduce the book to those in her community.  A WEL-Systems® CODE Model Coach™ and contributing author to the book, Amy’s passion and compassion are a huge invitation for you to discover that within yourself.

Sunday, October 18 – 1:30 to 5:00 pm / WEL-Systems Institute – Kanata

With snacks and beverages inviting you to slow down and stay a while, discover the story behind the creation as Karina shares with you her intentions and motivations behind her unique and individual work.  A WEL-Systems® Master Facilitator, Karina created the cover design for two of Louise’s book : Fully Alive (3rd Edition) and Phoenix Rising.

Parenting is something that is passed from generation to generation, replicating patterns of thought and behavior, often completely out of our awareness. This book – and the inspiring authors who openly share their experiences and insights – offers new information and a new paradigm for parenting grounded in a WEL-Systems® perspective.

They are the Guardians of the Vision for future generations and they invite you to join their ranks.  The choices we make now will shape the future.  Are you ready to redefine Parenting and move through the world differently?  It starts with you.

This is the book that will make the difference you’ve been looking for! It’s not about tips, techniques and practices on how to shape our children – it’s about coming face-to-face with a more expansive context for parenting and its potential to redefine ourselves, our children and our world. It challenges you to think for yourself, expanding your perspective on what parenting has been and what it can become.

To learn more about this book, see the book overview page where you can find a links to discover more about this book project and information about the 11 contributing authors.

Order your copy today and it will be shipped by September 25th.

Sexual, Sensual and Spiritual Beings is a four-day, Emerging Futures retreat for women – just like you! – who are seeking to find a new place to stand as they express and experience themselves as authentic and fully connected to their potential.

With ease and comfort, you’ll find yourself relaxing into the soft and welcoming Space of the Delta Fredericton, on the gently flowing banks of the Saint John River.  Our time together is nestled into a day filled with exploration and discovery of Self; and offering layers of quiet time for you to be with your own thoughts or to find a cozy corner to sip tea while in meaningful conversation with others on a similar journey.  Evenings are free for you to enjoy at your leisure.

Framed in the startlingly potent WEL-Systems® Open Forum process of discovery, Emerging Futures experiences are intimate conversations that invite you to discover what you have to say!  You’ll find yourself willing and able to go where you’ve not gone before, to engage as you’ve long imagined and to become a living expression of what you’ve hoped for but, until now, were unable to trust. This is your opportunity to free yourself of the limitations of your own thinking and invite the Movement of body, mind and spirit that will awaken the ‘more’ into your life that you desire. For more information, see the Overview

Register now and reserve your place in this small group process.  Questions?  Contact Louise via her email ID Louise@LouiseLeBrun.com to determine what you need to feel safe and comfortable as you choose to engage.

I’ve decided to take the plunge (well… for me, at least, it feels like a plunge!) and discover the joy of tweeting!  If you want to follow along as I discover how to share my thoughts with you more effectively – in small bites and as they surface – you can find me at www.Twitter.com/louiselebrun .

I promise not to swamp you with my every waking thought, tending instead to share with you what feels meaningful for me in the moment.  Insights and discoveries, as well as letting you know about new ‘stuff”…. that will be what tweeting is all about for me. If that appeals to you and you want to engage, I’ll look forward to connecting with you.

Don’t forget that you can also connect with me through WEL-Systems World! on Facebook.
