"#1 Joyful Empowerment"

Hi Everyone,

This work is often called "Joyful Empowerment" because the first phases of it are very much about empowering you in your own life. Everybody is working on some thing, trying to make something happen, money, sex, success, love, family, health, physical body, creativity, productivity, self or god-realization and so on.

In the overview "Joyful Empowerment" is the first broad phase of this work and is about "establishing and living a life that you love!" Arguably, doing the work of raising the consciousness of the planet is easier and more effective and certainly more fun if you are happy!

I always tell people that we will have a great time, usually an amazing time in the course but come "Monday morning" what's different? My favorite thing is always results. If the intentions that you bring to the course to be worked on are not empowered enough to notice direct shifts in your life then that is not truly sufficient.

I define "Joy" as being in the right place at the right time doing the right thing. And I define power as getting what you want. People with more power get more of what they want and people with less power get less of what they want. So "Joyful Empowerment" is: Being in the right place at the right time doing the right thing getting what you want.

What does "right" mean? In your life you are the only one who knows. So, the deeper aspects of Joy and Empowerment quickly become about how to know and live your own authenticity, your own personal truth.

On a slightly deeper note, notice that these defintions are not (necessarily) about feelings or comfort. This sense of rightness, joy and power is what supports courage, even heroism at any level, small or large. Those are the times when you are scared to death or feel like hell but you know you want to "do it" any way. And that occurs A LOT more often then people talk about.

The way that the work is set up at currently is in the form of a 10-day, 8 hour a day course. It can be in a "retreat" type setting but I also often do it "right in the middle of life" so to speak, usually the city where the group comes together and then even arrange the hours so that local people can get in a half day of work.

There is also a weekend course that is basically the first three days of the 10-day course and forms more or less an "intro" for those who prefer to check things out prior to the longer commitment.

There is a weekend course happening in Dallas TX on Feb 2,3,4. And there is a tentative 10-day scheduled for Dallas on May 11th. The current Dallas flyer is here.

The weekend introduces a) the energy of intent, b) the intention dialogue (all dialogues are with me, there is relatively little work between participants,) c) the energy of emotion and how to work with your body to quickly surface the "old or stuck" stuff for clearing, d) the intital inner guidance practices, getting a reliable connection to inner guidance through your body. This is all there is time for in the weekend but it can be and often is plenty.

The rest of the 10-day then takes these three and applies them to some "tougher" feelings in the "Anger Dance" and the "Fear Dance." Then they are applied to deeper healing of body issues, and then perhaps hardest of all, but of course most rewarding, applied to money and sex.

The heart of all of it is learning to live your own truth, learning to be authentic or genuine in every way. It is from this viewpoint that I can assert that "the first rule is that there are no rules." Who can say what is right for you other then you? The problem is that this is normally utterly disempowered and the fundamental reason is because people rarely know how or what they feel and just as rarely are not clear about their intentions.

Accordingly, people do very much as they wish in my courses. Falling asleep? Fine. Bathroom or snack on your own schedule, Fine. MUST say something to THAT person NOW? Fine, take them in the other room. Not sure I want to do THIS process? Fine, feel it out, participate or not as you like.

It is actually a practice in self knowledge and being free.

Of course the "anarchistic objections" can become loud at this point but wait and see. Properly empowered with feelings, truth, emotions etc. people are as grand, lovely and inspiriing as you can imagine! It is just that few people have ever gotten the chance to know themselves in these ways. But that doesn't mean these ways do not exist. Plus, you see how synchronicity and perfection work in even the tiniest of ways.

I will share more about me personally another time but essentially I travel a lot and therefore rarely, if ever, host or organize the courses myself. So it is very wonderful when someone is moved to do this.

So please continue to let me know of your interest and we will see where and when things come together. That is part of the adventure too. Synchronicity is everywhere and everywhen.

For communications, the first email was a little confusing where I said to write back through MI. You can email me directly, less confusion, less duplication and a little less work for R.

Thank you very much,

much love always ... greg
