No Words Required
There are times when you don’t need to say much to frame the work because the work speaks for itself. That is how I felt this month. Just take a look at the banners, the businesses in the directory, the events on the calendar, the videos, whatever strikes your fancy. Then a picture forms, a picture of a growing community with more and more members each month. A community that has connections to each other. A community that is learning more about itself each day. Then I look at how lucky I am to be a part of that community and how glad I am that you are a part of it too. Smiles

I had a blast taping the segments this month so please take a moment to share them with us.

Part I: Cultivating True Wealth
By Lynn Woodland
"The Law of Attraction" has become a mainstream topic of talk telling us that anything is possible if we just change our mind. Meanwhile the world is undergoing the worst economic downturn in most of our memories. Never before have such widely divergent realities of hope and fear pulled at us. Those of us willing to entertain New Thought ideas of limitlessness may still find ourselves drawn into the collective experience of scarcity as the crashing economy and mass panic make "changing our mind" no easy feat. Practicing popular prosperity techniques without addressing the season of growth our world is in can backfire, like trying to plant a garden in the middle of a snow storm. Read More...
