Welcome to our July edition of Song of Avalon!

This months' theme is "Dream Bigger."  If you are interested in expanding to reach your full potential, we've gathered several resources that will be of interest to you.  Many people are interested in consciously utilizing the Law of Attraction as described in the Abraham materials and The Secret, but they find that thinking positively, engaging in visualizations and affirmations are insufficient to move them forward in the way they wish. 

Abundance and manifestation coaching has become a significant part of Kim's private practice.  If you'd like an introduction to Kim and her work in this area, check out this month's TeleSeminar on the Law of Attraction:  Mary Lou will be interviewing Kim about "Why the Secret Isn't Working for You and What You Can Do About It."  Details below.  We're also highlighting some meditation programs, books and other media that can help you break through limiting patterns and beliefs. 

If you are interested in registering for our upcoming fall retreat,  "Dancing Our Souls Awake," or Mary Lou's new classes, "Cultivating a Spiritual Practice" or "Woman as  Caretaker:  Burden or Blessing?" they are all starting to fill.  Save your spot while you can!

Finally, be sure to read Kim's article, "Dream Bigger" for some summertime inspiration on making your life larger. 

Blessings, Kim and Mary Lou

The Mind and the Brain: Neuroplasticity and the Power of Mental Force by Jeffrey M. Schwartz
 
Schwartz (A Return to Innocence), a UCLA psychiatrist and expert on treating patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), teams up with Begley, a Wall Street Journal science columnist, to explore the mind/brain dichotomy and to discuss the science behind new treatments being developed for a host of brain dysfunctions. Building on the work presented in Schwartz's first book, Brain Lock, the authors begin by demonstrating that OCD patients are capable of rechanneling compulsive urges into more socially acceptable activities and that, by doing so, they actually alter their brains' neuronal circuitry.

Dream Bigger
©2007, Kimberly V. Schneider, LPC

             As I write this article we have just passed the Summer Solstice:  the earth’s longest day; zenith of the sun’s strength.  In this season of light and heat I always experience increased energy and an enhanced sense that anything is possible.

            Of late I have felt increasingly hopeful about human possibilities, in particular.  My work with clients offers me a firsthand glimpse of our species’ beauty, resiliency and potential for transformation.  Over and over again I am privileged to witness people become more than they ever imagined they could be.

            In discussing human potential, author and Marketing Guru Dan Kennedy often refers to the “80/20” rule—a theory which states that, given the same useful information and opportunity, only 20 of 100 people will choose to apply that information and take advantage of the opportunity.  5 of the smaller group of 20 will become “superstars,” continuing to stretch themselves and integrate all the new information they can into massive action that leads to enormous success. 1 of the 5 will rise to the absolute top of their game.

            What’s interesting about the 80/20 rule (which, incidentally has proven true in sports, academia and business) is that each of the 100 has absolute control over where she or he will fall—in the group of 80, 20, 5 or 1. 

            I can almost hear some of you objecting to my last statement, citing unequal distribution of talent, environment and personality.  Yet every human endeavor is replete with examples of those who rose above what seemed to be insurmountable limitations.  These are the stories that inspire and challenge us, for they remind us of our own possibilities.
