Finding Authentic Happiness - Part 2

Impress upon yourself the necessity and the wisdom of constant self-noticing. This watchfulness is not the same as worriedly thinking about yourself. Esoteric self-noticing consists of standing aside as a passive observer of whatever you do and feel.

That is excellent self-action. It loosens the chains which bind an individual to dissatisfaction and depression. Facts are attracting freedom.

Whatever you RESIST will PERSIST and INTENSIFY
Tim Custis founder of Spiral Release® will talk about the effects of resistance in our body and life. Resistance is a creating energy; this creative energy reinforces the very pain we are trying to avoid, giving it strength to continue in our life. This is not confined to our physical body but all aspects of our being. Tim will be facilitating healing and teaching new ways of working with resistance.
