This is exactly one week before the start of this year's Core Star Foundation first-year class, and the teachers will present an evening designed to provide a sampling of the experiential exercises, a preview of some of the information, and -- most of all -- a forum for any prospective students who want to get last-minute questions answered. If you haven't decided for sure that you want to be in this year's class, this will be a perfect place to test your reactions and experience. 

    Once again we are enthusiastic about offering an August workshop at Shadowcliff in Colorado .  This winter I have received new information and techniques not only expanding our understanding, but also creating experiences bringing that expansion back into daily life.  

    Before we have presented a workshop on “Dancing with the Shift;” now we are moving on to actually “Living the Shift.” 

    "How do we move with what is happening on the inside and outside of life – how do we connect with all that is and stay connected, not straying from that glorious sense of expanded self? These are the questions:  the answers lie within each of us. There is no one universal answer because there is no one ideal. Each of us brings our unique individuality to the field and we are called to play our song, joining with the rest of the songs: joining within and joining with.  It is in joining all the parts and pieces and fragments of ourselves from within ourselves that we then are empowered, enabled to join at a deeper and broader level with one another."

    Content:  Over the last four years of Healing from the Intention Realm, and Dancing with the Shift, Core Star has explored and pointed to ways to perceive the permeability of the self-limiting barrier, so that we have added experiences and understandings to be both “out there” and “in here” at the same time – and thus added another level of enrichment and expansion.  [If you are curious about last year’s “Dancing with the Shift” concept, contact us at corestar@prodigy.net, and we’ll email you the information] 

    We have, however, not provided an experience or even a good model, for changing the root experience of ourselves in our lives.  In other words, we left those last workshops, still thinking in the “i” language of overly-limited beings, instead of actually transforming to an “I/We” language of a consciousness that we now know is becoming essential. 

    As a culmination of the first phase of this process we have now been given the information and experiences to accomplish that transformation. 

    We are going to create a laboratory at Shadowcliff not only for learning how to experience the expanded consciousness, but also for emphasizing how to model and take these concepts back into our everyday lives, and letting this expanded self-perception be truly how we live day to day – not just experiencing it in an idyllic place where we don’t have the normal distractions. 

    The process will be one of co-creation.  Most of the information I’ve received has been in the form of how to generate the most helpful creation process in each individual.  So you will come home with your own process that is not generic for everyone, but works specifically for you.  We’ll be working together so that each of us can co-create our own version of the Dance – our own experience of expanded consciousness that models and lives in the New Human way to experience the New Earth. 

    Who may attend:     I believe the information and exercises will be of interest to anyone who is curious about the human energy field and humanity's role in the Universe; however, there are a limited number of spaces available.   If you are not a current or former student at Core Star,  

I will have as a prerequisite that you attend the one-day Introductory Workshop that we offer at Core Star.  At this time, one is scheduled for June 28, 2008.  We will need at least that much basic shared information about the Human Energy Field, and about the language we use at Core Star].  

I will fill the remaining spaces in the workshop in the order in which the deposit and registration is received and approved.  Registrations will be approved as there is both space available and as we determine that the experience or training gives the registrant an appropriate base for the workshop subjects.  I’ll consider them each individually. 

    When:  From late afternoon, Monday, August 25 until late morning on Friday, August 29, 2008. 

    Where:  Grand Lake , Colorado at a beautiful lodge/conference center, Shadowcliff.  (For more information on Shadowcliff, go to www.shadowcliff.org).  Our accommodations are in the lodge, and we will be staying 3 persons to each room.   

    Cost:  The tuition is $540, which includes not only the workshop, but also lodging for four nights, and three meals a day, starting with Monday evening, and concluding with Friday breakfast. 

    Invitation:  We will have an opportunity to work with our own personal transformation; as well as the experience of our expanded selves in the group.   The sessions will be spaced so that we are working in the mornings, some early afternoons, and some in the evening; however, there will also be free afternoon time for reflection, hiking, exploration of the mountains, or whatever supports the transformational process you are undertaking.    Grand Lake sits on the west edge of Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. 

        I invite you to use this opportunity: 

           * to learn something new,

           * to experience a refreshing reflective time at the end of the summer,

           * to enjoy and be inspired by the company of your fellow healers/friends from Core Star,

           * to expand your understanding and experience of what a human can be on a day-to-day basis and to develop a model to keep that experience when you return home. 

    How to reserve a place:  Because there is a limitation on the number we can accommodate, we will fill the roster on a first-come, first served basis.  You can reserve a place by notifying me of your enrollment, and forwarding a $250 deposit to Core Star.  The balance of an additional $290 will be due by Monday, August 11.

    Cancellation policy:  If a cancellation is received by June 30, the deposit will be refunded in full.  We can refund half the deposit if the cancellation is received between June 30 and August 11.  After that time the deposit is non-refundable. 

    Contact us if there are any additional questions; I look forward to joining you in Colorado .
