SUMMARY:A Magical Soul Adventure Evening: Cultivating Clarity and Confidence
DESCRIPTION:Awaken your heart\, ignite your spirit\nDo you ever wonder if you’ve lost your sense of curiosity and wonderment?\nDo you want to live a more purposeful life\, but aren’t sure where to start?\nDo you want to find more fulfillment and bring healing to yourself and others?\nDo you know there has never been\, nor ever will be someone with your unique gifts?\n  \nWe believe each person living on the earth is here for a specific soul purpose that only they can fulfill. Finding and then living your soul’s calling is actually a life-long process. We are closest to living our purpose when we feel joyful\, when we are in awe of the wonder of life around us\, when we are being of service to others\, and when we are deeply aware of our connection to each other and the world around us. \nTo step into our soul’s mission fully\, we need to cultivate two main characteristics: clarity and confidence. \nClarity\nIn our time together\, we will share with you the tools we use to quiet the mind and hear the whispers of our soul. Your soul is communicating with you all the time\, and its movement is directly related to your health and well-being. Together\, we will be asking these questions: What makes my heart sing? When in my life do I feel a sense of wonder? In what ways do I feel called to be of service to others? \nConfidence\nSelf doubt and fear stop more people from achieving their life’s purpose. In our session together\, we will explore ways to recognize your own self-sabotaging triggers and to help reprogram old patterns that limit your ability to fully step into your soul’s mission. \n  \nEnjoy the Experience\n\nLearn – Gain clarity to make better decisions and direct your life\, to live authentically with meaning\, abundance and flow. \nDiscover – Quiet the mind and connect with stillness to access deep tranquility and your soul’s message for your life path. \nConnect – When a tribe of similar minded folks come together and share\, we have the opportunity to move forward into our lives with clarity of purpose\, passion\, and power to better serve our own souls\, our families and our communities. \n  \nWho will be Facilitating?\nLianne Bridges – Lifestyle and Business Mentor\nLianne left the corporate world after years of serving multi-nationals to create a new life for herself that offered more freedom and a chance to follow her own path and purpose.

Next\, you will be guided to use the latest social networking technologies to build your own ideal tribe or community. Using conscious marketing and sales strategies\, you will learn to attract and nurture clients within this community in a natural\, none ‘salesy’ way. Then\, you will develop an action plan to guide you in allocating resources\, time and money properly\, and sequence events for maximum impact. This plan will be flexible\, evolving organically as you learn and grow. At the end of the program\, you will present all of these items together as part of your ‘Lean Business Plan’ for 2017 and beyond. \n  \n\n\nEnjoy the Ultimate Workshop Experience\n\nLearn – Our proprietary lesson plan will guide you toward gaining clarity to make better decisions and direct your life\, to live authentically with meaning\, abundance and flow. \nDiscover – Quiet the mind and connect with stillness to access deep tranquility and your soul’s message for your life path. \nConnect – Meet like-minded individuals who are also on a path of exploration.

Our body houses our mind\, emotions and spirit\, and the planet and the environment around us is home for our body. How we treat both (our body and environment) has a fundamental impact on our level of performance and ability to achieve our  goals. A great mind\, full of ideas residing in a sick body can not manifest to its highest potential. Similarly\, a healthy body and mind can not thrive in a physical environment that is cluttered and dirty.

SUMMARY:Awakening Village Cafe™ - March\, 2016
DESCRIPTION:It is said\, ‘It takes a village’. When it comes to realizing your dreams\, you need support\, inspiration\, encouragement and resources. This can be achieved through connecting with like-minded individuals\, who share your vision and purpose. We invite you to join our community\, the Awakening Village\, – a network of conscious individuals and entrepreneurs bettering the world by doing what they love for a living. \n  \n1.0 Theme: Cultivating the Characteristics of Coherence\n\nOne person connected to Source is infinitely more powerful than one who is not.” Abraham Hicks \nConnecting to the deeper\, true part of ourselves allows us to tap into the limitless source of creativity\, wisdom and guidance. Some call this our intuition or our sub-conscious; while others see this as our ancestors\, guides\, angels\, God or the Leader Within. Connecting with this greater consciousness helps us heal\, break free of limiting programming and find the path that best serves both ourselves and others. \nWhether you are a leader within your family\, your community\, an organization or simply a leader within your own life\, our monthly gatherings will help you deepen your connection with your highest Self\, strengthen your intuition and tap into a profound wealth of knowledge\, wisdom and creativity. \n“Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition\, because everything else is secondary.” Steve Jobs \nSome of the benefits of aligning with your highest expression of yourself: \n\nExperience ease and flow in your life\nEnjoy deeper connections and more significant relationships\nAccess unlimited wisdom\, inspiration and creativity\nGain clarity to make better decisions and direct your life\nLive authentically with purpose\nAttract abundance more effectively\n\n  \nEach month we will be exploring one of the 12 Characteristics of Coherence. This month it will be Faith and Beliefs. What constitutes a healthy and effective belief system that will help you to achieve your highest dreams and how do we cultivate this? \n \n  \n2.0 Format: Facilitated Discussion Groups\nFor the last four years\, the format of the Cafe has been expert speaker presentations. This year\, we will use facilitated discussion groups to explore deeper into topics in a more interactive way. \n3.0 Location: Hudson’s Conscious Learning Lounge\nTo start\, we will hold our meetings at the Conscious Learning Lounge in Hudson. If the group expands beyond the limit of this venue\, we will explore other options. \n4.0 No Set Fee – Donation and Volunteer Basis\nWe want to make this an initiative that is run by the Awakening Village™ community. As such\, we are calling for volunteers to help out\, bring food or drinks and donations. Half of the proceeds will be donated to Syria to Guelph – a local group of twenty plus members who are working hard to sponsor a Syrian refugee family of five (two parents and three children aged 7\, 6 and 3) to resettle in Guelph\, Ontario where they can start a new life in our community. They have partnered with the Dublin Street United Church and have raised just over $22\, 000 of our $30\, 000 goal through private donations\, crowd funding\, and fundraising events in our community. \nSyria to Guelph Facebook page:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/syriatoguelph/ \n“The only real valuable thing is intuition.” Albert Einstein \n\nWho will be Facilitating\nLianne Bridges – Founder\, Designing Transformation Productions \nLianne received classical MBA training at Canada’s prestigious Rotman School of Management. She has 30 years of experience serving the world’s leading multinationals and not-for-profit organizations like Unilever\, Aeroplan\, Bombardier\, Nabisco\, Plan Canada\, to name a few. Over the past fifteen years\, Lianne has been a entrepreneur –  starting and leading a variety of highly successful ventures. She translates this knowledge to now serve her true passion: helping individuals\, entrepreneurs and leaders make a difference doing what they love and aligning with their highest purpose and potential. \nShe has taken her experience guiding organizations through strategic visioning processes and marketing\, and combined this with the approach she has used to transform her own life and work to offer specific tools and a step-by-step process to train and mentor people in creating a business and life they love. \nLianne lives the leadership values that she mentors – optimism\, presence\, compassion and empathy\, connection\, creativity\, courage\, kindness\, mastery\, patience and persistence – and infuses them into every aspect of her teachings. \nShe is a self-taught techno-geek – continually exploring and learning the latest social media and web technologies. She believes that anyone\, at any age\, not only can learn how to use these supportive tools\, but will truly benefit with an increased sense of empowerment when they do. \n\n“Listen to your intuitive inner voice and find what passion stirs your soul.” Wayne Dyer \n\nYou MUST Reserve Your Spot Below\n  \nShare this:TweetEmail

SUMMARY:Awakening Village Cafe™ - January\, 2016
DESCRIPTION:The Awakening Village Cafe™ is getting a face lift – a new theme\, format\, location and fee structure.\n\n1.0 New Theme: Align with the Supreme Leader Within\n\nOne person connected to Source is infinitely more powerful than one who is not.” Abraham Hicks \nConnecting to the deeper\, true part of ourselves allows us to tap into the limitless source of creativity\, wisdom and guidance. Some call this our intuition or our sub-conscious; while others see this as our ancestors\, guides\, angels\, God or the Leader Within. Connecting with this greater consciousness helps us heal\, break free of limiting programming and find the path that best serves both ourselves and others. \nWhether you are a leader within your family\, your community\, an organization or simply a leader within your own life\, our monthly gatherings will help you deepen your connection with your highest Self\, strengthen your intuition and tap into a profound wealth of knowledge\, wisdom and creativity. \n“Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition\, because everything else is secondary.” Steve Jobs \nSome of the benefits of aligning with your highest expression of yourself: \n\nExperience ease and flow in your life\nEnjoy deeper connections and more significant relationships\nAccess unlimited wisdom\, inspiration and creativity\nGain clarity to make better decisions and direct your life\nLive authentically with purpose\nAttract abundance more effectively\n\n2.0 New Format: Facilitated Discussion Groups\nFor the last four years\, the format of the Cafe has been expert speaker presentations. This year\, we will use facilitated discussion groups to explore deeper into topics in a more interactive way. \n3.0 New Location: Hudson’s Conscious Learning Lounge\nTo start\, we will hold our meetings at the Conscious Learning Lounge in Hudson. If the group expands beyond the limit of this venue\, we will explore other options. \n4.0 New Fee Structure: No Set Fee – Donation and Volunteer Basis\nWe want to make this an initiative that is run by the Awakening Village™ community. As such\, we are calling for volunteers to help out\, bring food or drinks and donations. All proceeds will be donated to Syria to Guelph – a local group of twenty plus members who are working hard to sponsor a Syrian refugee family of five (two parents and three children aged 7\, 6 and 3) to resettle in Guelph\, Ontario where they can start a new life in our community. They have partnered with the Dublin Street United Church and have raised just over $22\, 000 of our $30\, 000 goal through private donations\, crowd funding\, and fundraising events in our community. \nSyria to Guelph Facebook page:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/syriatoguelph/ \n“The only real valuable thing is intuition.” Albert Einstein \n\nWho will be Facilitating\nLianne Bridges – Founder\, Designing Transformation Productions \nLianne received classical MBA training at Canada’s prestigious Rotman School of Management.
