Is the vehicle a 6 Wheel Drive? If so does it work properly? Do the turn signals and cruise control work? If it hasn’t already, will the car pass safety and emissions? Does it get good mileage? As much as the metaphor is amusing, we find that cars and consciousness have a lot in common: they both do drive us to a destination!

Why does my inner pendulum keep on flipping from desire into resistance, and back?

What is the entry that the Path of eXPiRe allows me to have to begin to feel more comfortable with the unknown (with how my “plan” keeps on being challenged)? Also, what makes it that I would take what is personally, and thus resist it? A potential feel for what’s behind the questions is what the TWIN Mission endeavors to transmit.

Bordering heaven and hell, does this limbo region of consciousness offer markers, so that we'd recognize that we're about to enter a state of oblivion, that will have us feel cast aside, forsaken or hopeless?

During this Sunday’s gathering (11A-12P CT, 12-1P ET), we will further our heartfelt sense of being “IN PaRaDiSe” as opposed to being “In Limbo.” Now that we can feel what PaRaDiSe is (and is not), and its import in knowing ourselves and in being true to ourselves, we will also pose three questions to our PaRaDiSe Mystery School: the why of the school, the how of the school and the what of the school. In that process, congruence is to be found, by which we don’t only know what to do, we actually do it!

Our circle is strangely named "PaRaDiSe," in honor of four courageous rabbis of the Mishnaic period (1st century CE). These four knocked at the door of the PaRaDoX in order to become fluent in "God's" language, when we hear what to do, and actually do it!   This Thursday's meeting (6-7P CT, 7-8P ET), we will explore what we choose, consciously or not, to see a cup that is half-full or half-empty, and why we would make that choice. We are saying "choose" as experiments in quantum physics principles have shown that what is being observed in nature depends on choices made by the observer. There is therefore a connection between the observer (me) and the thing observed (my life). Why is it therefore that we would observe black rather than white, small rather than big, etc.? Right there is a call to do shadow work, and probe the unconscious so as to bring back a pearl of consciousness, by which we are allowed to change... The XPR/eXPire work restores the nobility of mysticism. It ushers a point of total surrender, when we decide to be ourselves because that's who we are; when we don't blame anyone for our unhappiness; when we shift focus from seeking love outside to finding it inside; that is, from dreaming to awakening. Ultimately, it is when we alone are responsible for the "world" we observe. 01:08:00Elevate The SoulnoObserve,Paradise,Language,Paradox,ConsciousnessUltimately, it is when we alone are responsible for the "world" we observe.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2016/08/28/sunday-paradise-circle-self-disclosureSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2016/08/28/sunday-paradise-circle-self-disclosure/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2016/08/28/sunday-paradise-circle-self-disclosureSun, 28 Aug 2016 16:00:00 GMTSunday PaRaDiSe Circle: "Self Disclosure"It is out of authentic and heartfelt unity that we welcome you to the PaRaDiSe Circle, a gathering of ordinary people practicing deep introspection and doing shadow work to come to know ourselves and solve everyday problems.

There is a second word that looks like PaRaDiSe and is quite pertinent in matters of authentic relating: that word is PaRaDoX. Paradox is “God’s” language, an example being to be guided to quit our job, when we don’t have any clue of how we’re going to support ourselves: will we listen to our heart, or will we do the “reasonable” thing?

You are simply too special: the things that are insured to work for most have no effect on you whatsoever. What fear is hiding behind "your" healing resistance? At first, this form of specialness may boost the ego: heck, being chosen is an honor, isn't it? Yet this subtle form of discrimination comes with a hefty price, and eventually has us spiral down into "I'm not enough; I can't make it work like other people do... Why can't I be more ordinary?" Eventually, the illusion of separation is so great that we will exclaim: "If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh?" And a miracle occurs: as soon as I accept that there is just One story of pain and that, just like you, I have known loneliness, sadness and anger, I am not far from accepting that a global cosmology must exist somewhere.

Peace of mind! As New Essenes, we found that it is the same with any desire: in the end, and whether we know it or not, Peace of mind is the only thing we want! Our last show focused on such simplicity, unfolding the XPR saying: "when I am not at peace, there is something I do not understand," and continuing with the two keys that we have received to reach Peace, a.k.a. enlightenment: inquiry and surrender. These two keys work as a pair: when I have no more questions, that is, when my inquiry is fulfilled, I naturally move into surrender! If inquiry is how to surrender, where do we find an inquiry that is so ultimate that it would annihilate any possible doubt? It would have to have been in existence forever and thus before the beginning of time. It also would have to be conveyed in a universal language, so that all stories, mythologies and culture could center into and be felt as One Love... Although all that which glitters is not always gold, the XPR stairway to heaven does start in a pattern that is among the oldest known symbols, and is conveyed universally as it has been found in sacred places, on the five continents.

For many of us, there seems to be a discrepancy between what we say we want (our communication) and what we actually experience (our results). What causes that our word would have no oomph – no life? Ego imposes a separation between what appears to exist “below” as that which we manifest on Earth and what appears to exist “above” as the heavenly world and words of scriptures. As New Essenes, we choose to bridge the gap, by hearing the most practical guidance of the Living Word above, so that the flesh of our communication below would be what we would prefer it to be. That experience is akin to saying what we mean and meaning what we say. That above place is not above our head; it is very simply in our heart that the Word of LOVE is broadcasted! Scriptures simply happen to be encoded with a path to the acquired skill of listening to guidance, a.k.a. to surrender!

Numbers have been seen as a substitute to trust, as they provide a way to measure whether we have done what we say we would. Yet is that really true? Isn't Peace of mind coming from the knowing that we acted in integrity with ourselves - no matter what the scale, the lab work or the bank statement may say? When dissatisfied, we make numbers our tyrants, pushing us to reach a health goal or convincing us that we need to hit a target to maintain funding. We use them to hide the screech of a voice telling us that we are not enough, that we don't have enough and that we don't do enough. In so doing, we lie to ourselves. Numbers are much more than a replacement for trust or a motivation to achieve. They have life. As offered by John Forbes Nash, Jr. "you don't have to be a mathematician to have a feel for numbers." You just have to be a feeler, a music lover, a warrior of the heart. There are infinite ways to communicate; some better than others. Numbers are potentially the most elegant of all! Their signals and patterns are all around us. We just have to open to seeing them, and be willing to read them, similarly to the way an animal psychic would communicate with a cat or a bird. How we read these subtle cues can help determine the events of our lives. Numbers are symmetrical; they come in pairs - in pairs of animals. It's easy to see: just write down the nine digits on a single row. 5 is dead center; around 5 is the pair of 4 and 6, then extending out comes the pair of 3 and 7, then 2 and 8, and finally 1 and 9. Each pair forms a 10 - espousing the perfect symmetry that the language of the universe. Imagine that: what if numbers were in fact letters? 01:04:00Elevate The SoulnoDeath and taxes rate quite high in accountability: we can "trust" that their time will come!http://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2015/12/06/the-new-essenes--the-paradise-mystery-schoolSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2015/12/06/the-new-essenes--the-paradise-mystery-school/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2015/12/06/the-new-essenes--the-paradise-mystery-schoolSun, 06 Dec 2015 17:00:00 GMTThe New Essenes - The PaRaDise Mystery SchoolThe New Essenes is a gathering of ordinary people practicing deep introspection as a way to solve everyday problems.

Wonderful things came from the “green” movement of mind, such as racial equality, environmental activism and multicultural sensitivity.

Here is to a change of perspective: what if that very voice that makes me feel small and ashamed would actually be the emissary of enlightenment? Think of it: what is enlightenment?

Indeed, when I let go of my attachment to outcomes, I find myself enjoying the process. I drop the plan, and am in the zone, happily ever after. I have no attention on time, and do not create unconscious time (no procrastination). On that note, story is told of a new patient settling comfortably on the couch. The psychiatrist began his therapy session saying: “I’m not aware of your problem. So perhaps, you should start at the very beginning.” “Of course.” replied the patient. “In the beginning, I created the Heavens and the Earth...” There is an interesting realization – my mind creates it all! I am the one who opens on the gate to Heaven and the gate to Hell. Both gates are within me: when my mind is alert, I choose Heaven. When unconscious, I choose Hell!

There is no final destination. The journey itself is life. We are however so attached to outcomes that we make the destination our primary goal, while denying that the end of the journey is to lose everything. Is then to wonder that we would postpone the NOW – and thus any real attainment – into the future: “when [fill in the blank] happens, then I’ll be happy; l’ll relax.” Ultimately, we will rest in peace, and let go of everything. Once that is accepted, there is no need to worry, and nothing to protect.

That’s how we choose for our word to make sense, organically, and even, viscerally. We know we feel the life of the Word when we hear ourselves meaning what we say and saying what we mean. In turn, heartfelt authenticity opens the SIXth Sense, a sense by which to feel that we are enough. It does so by promoting values, such as justice, freedom, equality, values that are embodied when we have the UnderStanding that there is only One of US.

We have been equipped with a nifty vehicle equipped with SIX mega-wheels – a rocket ship of sort for us to fly to places in consciousness where we haven’t been before… That vehicle is known as XPR: it is the Living Word that actually moves us. Since there is so much Power to its engine, the Path of XPR, as well to emPowering NOW LLC, the company that sponsors its motion and force, that both come with a Mission Statement. That would be its first wheel. The feel of having a Mission Statement – one of those things that writes down clearly the purpose of a company, organization or being, its raison d’être and focus – is “official.” Just like the ancient Essenes who were an organized tribe (chapters, meeting places, dues, etc.), so are the New Essenes, as organization is, after all, the building block of creativity.

That may be how our favorite question is “what if?” The two little words have an uncanny way to stretch the imagination and take us through the looking glass. Once on the other side, what we find is the Self, which is not necessarily who we think we are! Indeed, what would it mean to find the One you’re looking for? We will have ample space to feel into that theme, as it is the question asked by the 4th chapter of our New Essenes’ ebook, which we are now entering. What if – these words again – what if you were the One you’re looking for? “Yes, but,” should you wonder, is the nullifier for “what if?” As soon as we use a “yes, but,” we have the permission to remain in the narrow place in which we live: we may not like it there, but, at the least, it is safe! “Yes, but: finding the Self would place an end to my quest. I wouldn’t have any more excuse to not be me! I couldn’t distract myself anymore looking for LOVE out there… I would have to be response-able!” Yes, we hear you: it is “human” to be ambivalent, sometimes looking for enlightenment and, at other times, doing everything to not be the light! Until something happens, like being sick and tired to be sick and tired! And then you decide to go for it, that is, to go for you! Here is a paradox: this decision is not about you, although it totally is! While it seems that we spend a lifetime attempting to prove that we are special, we all have known loneliness, sadness, fear and anger, and we all have resisted feeling these dark emotions! The more we relate to the story of pain being the same for all, the more we can embrace our own pain, and vice-versa: the more we embrace our pain, the more we relate to the One story of pain.

That way of thinking is not so uncanny, as it is the premise the One Thousand and One Nights, a collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian stories compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age. That premise connects directly to the sound of silence: I must speak to save my life! The message is clear: speaking is a mean of survival! The more eloquent "I" can be, the more seductive my words are, and the less I risk being attacked! The question that moves me, albeit unconsciously, remains: "will I get them before they get me?" That question comes from GReed - from the Giving/Receiving of fear! How then can my communication provide for harmonious results? Impossible!

Doesn’t getting old suck? And whether we are on a vegan diet or not, do not teeth chew, grind and crush? Yet the real question is: how do we feel and thus stop the abuse that we inflict on ourselves and others; the undue violence of responding to bullying by being ourselves a thug? Whereas many of us would agree that meditation is a great tool to begin answering the question, we will eventually wonder on how to extend our morning and evening practices to a meditative life, where our speech and actions are 24/7 pure, that is, undivided! That would infer handling for good the need of the ego to dominate the other/the world. It will require to a total paradigm shift! On that note, perennial teachings, as mapped out by both the Hindu and the Hebrew Tree of Life, speak of the presence of parallel worlds: it is not so hard to imagine, especially as quantum mechanics has now proven and explained at length how the atom – a.k.a. the “Adam” (J) – jumps from one plane of awareness into another, simply by absorbing or giving energy…Therefore, the more I for-give the bullying that I was submitted to, the more elegantly I can jump into a parallel reality, and “receive” a nobler version of me.

What if is most certainly the favorite question of the New Essenes! Indeed, what if? What if the Jews would acknowledge the Testament left by Jesus, and the Christians, rejuvenate “the Old Testament” by receiving the wisdom imparted by Hebrew? That might mean no external religion, but more an heartfelt sense of what it means to be a Buddha, “awake…” That would mean living life in peace! What if one Book had the potential to actually be a manual of UnderStanding, that is, the manual of US – of UnderStanding that there is only One of US?  Would that explain how its original Hebrew name – the Torah – could also be rendered as “the Song of LOVE?”   What if there were so many codes in that one book that many other books followed, e.g.; such as the Prophets or the New Testament, to try to decipher them? Moreover what is the BIBLE, besides being an acronym for “Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth?” Lastly, what if we could integrate the old and the new, simply by becoming aware of the books that stand before these testaments?

Yet, besides the equations and logic that lead to reason, the way that we feel after each inquiry using the tool of the fractals is unmistakable: our gut tells us that the solution we arrive at is real, as are the changes we experience and the increasing Power to choose Peace! So yes, your doubts mirror what is left of ours, and we can deal with that! Indeed, each time we meet, the “QKosmos” rejoices! Last Sunday witnessed such rejoicing: we explored the Way of the Essenes, and lo and behold, realized that the dedication of the “ancient” Essenes is revived through the “New Essenes” via our sisterhood and brotherhood of light. Yet we did more: we looked at the Twelve Tribes as twelve professions of faith, and, by extension, twelve career paths: that was the first time that the expression “profession of faith” actually resonated with a vocation - and even twelve of them!  We use the elemental fractal of P24 to ground it into reality, and it was truly delicious!

Mahatma for the “high-souled” Gandhi gives us clear directions: “the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” Now we know that losing the self is the goal, how do we get there? What path do we take? The Buddha’s fourth Noble Truth does state that there is, in Truth, a path to the end of suffering. As it happens, both Tao and Torah, words which sound curiously alike, mean “the way, the teaching.” Also “high-souled,” the Essenes specialized in “being the change they wished to see in the world.” The earliest mention of this venerable tribe is by Jewish philosopher Philo of Alexandria (c. 20-54 CE), noting their concerns with piety, their dedication to honesty, their sense of community and their sacred vision of freedom. Since the recent discoveries of the Dead Sea Scrolls, a new interest was sparked in the Essenes and, through them, in the Hebrew Torah as a possible Wisdom Path, that is, as a way to losing the self. Yet, little is known about the other ways in which the same Hebrew Torah was received by the other tribes that existed next to the Essenes, at the time of Jesus. This difference in sensibility will be what we will focus on Sunday.   This meeting will be as passionate as ever, as we will learn from the Essenes how to express the beauty we love to do: using our newly revealed archetypal and multifocal XPR lens to re-frame a new understanding of our collective religious history.  We will open to a new potential for Biblical understanding, that is, an understanding of the Self. We know that 2000 years ago—at the time of Jesus, the Torah (the Five Books of Moses) was read in twelve main ways, by twelve tribes named after their clan names.

Today is a day to break tradition: not only we won’t build a foundation on what the great genius offered, but we will even go in the opposite direction to his findings, specifically the one part about God and playing dead… We mean, God and playing dice! Here is the quote we inquire upon, when Einstein says: ‘quantum mechanics is certainly imposing. But an inner voice tells me that it is not yet the real thing. The theory says a lot, but does not really bring us any closer to the secret of the “old one.” I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.’ It is likely that Einstein, although of a Jewish persuasion, didn’t know that the first word of the Bible – which is traditionally translated as “in the beginning” – could also be rendered as “Created SIX.” We had an astounding show last Sunday on what would happen to the three main cosmologies, namely Taoism, Hinduism and Judaism (and by extension, Christianity and Islam), if they were to join hands… It would be elementary: the four classical elements of Western and Eastern traditions (Fire, Earth, Air/Metal, Water) would partner with the 5th element of Taoism (Wood) and the 5th element of Hinduism (Ether), for a total of SIX elements. These SIX are a clear manifestation of the “Created SIX,” as the God who created Heaven and Earth. Moreover, when I look at the geometrical shape that has SIX faces, I get a cube – the symbol of materiality and of Earth!

Think of it…  You may think that unlimited wealth would be what to wish for, but then, upon inquiring on why you would want wealth, you’ll eventually realize that lots of money would take the worry away, and give you… Peace of mind! As New Essenes, we found that it is the same with any desire: in the end, and whether we know it or not, Peace of mind is the only thing we want! Our last show focused on such simplicity, unfolding the XPR saying: “when I am not at peace, there is something I do not understand,” and continuing with the two keys that we have received to reach Peace, a.k.a. enlightenment: inquiry and surrender. These two work as a pair: when I have no more questions, that is, when my inquiry is fulfilled, I naturally move into surrender! If inquiry is key to surrender, then where do we find an inquiry that is ultimate, as a theory of everything would be? It would have to originate from nature, be in existence before the beginning of time, and be conveyed in a universal language, so that all stories, mythologies and culture could center into One Love… Although all that which glitters is not always gold, the XPR stairway to heaven does start in a pattern that originates in nature, that is among the oldest known symbols, and is conveyed universally as it has been found in sacred places, on the five continents. Known as the Seed Of Life, that sacred motif has been praised throughout history by philosophers, scientists, architects and artists for its faultless symmetry. As it happens, the first chapter of Genesis is formed after the Seed of Life, so much so that the Seed is also called “the Genesis Pattern!” And it makes me wonder: what if the Hebrew of the Torah was seeding in a technology to end suffering?

We are brimming with love and gratitude for you - for the whole of life, actually, and for the many gifts that are here for us to give/receive. Since January, we have moved us through Chapter 1 of the New Essenes eBook, which centered around the question: would understanding the problem prepare you for the solution? We had a blast with it: the conversations invited an inquiry into language as action/manifestation, since communication is not what is said and done, but the results of what is said and done. With this foundation in place, we are now preparing to embark on Chapter 2, which now centers on the solution by inviting us to reflect on a potent question: how effective would you be if you could abide in a mind at Peace? The answer to the question seems....duh...pretty darn simple! Most anyone would have no hesitation in recognizing that they are more effective when they are peaceful and clear than when conflicted and confused. Despite this simplicity, do you wonder at times why you do not have the Power to choose Peace? Albert Einstein gave us a big clue when he said: "peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding." Might there be something that we have not yet understood, individually and collectively? The New Essenes community offers that, yes, there are keys in sacred language. These keys are meant to first and foremost open the door to Understanding, the ante to the proverbial "Peace which passeth Understanding." Once I am beyond questing meaning, I can choose Peace, while being increasingly "receptive" (that word, again) to the whole of existence. The ability to choose (and thus to sustain Peace) is no less that liberation from suffering, a.k.a. enlightenment. Join us as we take a simple look at how to come into the Power to choose Peace, and how to QKabbalah ("to receive") the two keys that master teachers have gifted us for that purpose. 00:57:00Elevate The SoulnoReceive,Peace,Understanding,Albert Einstein,surrenderGreetings to you and yours!

Yet if it were, why would we have such a hard time to change an insane habit? On the subject of knowledge, Einstein offers: “I want to know God’s thoughts; the rest are details.” At first, we may understand his desire as being all-encompassing; cosmic! There is another way to look at Einstein’s wish in relation to the offering of the oracle at Delphi: what if “knowing God’s thoughts” and “Know Thyself” were one and the same? A perennial wisdom saying confirms it by way of “as above, so belove.” In other words, there is no difference between knowing the BIG (“God’s thoughts”) and the small (“me, myself and I”)! Would accepting this premise assist us to be the change we wish to see, stop suffering, and therein, actively contribute to the work of transformation that is so direly needed at this time?

It is our knowing that, being an art project, the Path of XPR plays an important part in solving the consciousness puzzle and opening the sacred gates to the eternal NOW. Art opens the gate of the Beautiful, as it bypasses the mind. When we listen to great music, we are no longer thinking! That is the function of Art, whether visual, dance, music or otherwise, to immediately transport us out of the judgmental mind into the realm of the soul… We now stand a better chance to relate to our emotions as divine messengers and to marry them – for good, for bad, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health.

True it is: scientists give much better demonstrations than mystics! However undeniable, these proofs are yet to assist the individual or the collective to “love the neighbor as ourselves,” stop the wars and find their fulfillment as they bless the planet’s evolution. What’s missing? What aren’t we ready to accept the truth that will change our life? Why believing in scarcity and giving our power to fear – indeed False Evidence Appearing Real? Greek philosophers have given us a clue, while revealing the triple gates of the Good, the True and the Beautiful, meant to open the soul to the Eternal. The gate of the Good is opened by Religion; the gate of the True, by Science, and the gate of the Beautiful, by Art: Religion, Science and Art are across cultures the foundation of Wisdom Teachings. Whereas Science is certainly fulfilling its role of demonstrating the True (e.g.; e=mc2), it appears that Religion is failing its mandate of revealing the Good! The very fact that we would have a plural for the word “religion” does imply comparisons (good vs. bad): right there, this is where we miss the mark! It is then not so surprising that various religious institutions would promote, in subtle and not so subtle ways, a deep investment in the illusion of separation; e.g. ‘our “God” is better than your “God,” and if you don’t convert to our faith, you’ll go to Hell!’ Because Religion refuses to grow up, Science cannot come into its maturity.

Indeed, wisdom has always emphasized understanding and kindness: “do not do unto others what you wouldn’t want others to do unto you.” So why is it that we would be harming ourselves, by being mean, micromanaging and intolerant? Moreover, what link are we missing, that we would use the same belief (I must use force to discipline myself), which ends up keeping healing at bay? To this, Bruce Lipton offers: “while the Biology of Belief focuses on the nature of how your personal beliefs affect your personal life, what we are realizing now is that collective beliefs have a much more profound effect.” This is to say that our attachment to harmful beliefs (e.g.; I’m “no good”) comes from a deeper source than just our individual story – that there is a global story of pain, which is much more potent, and thus much more arduous to contend with. To begin undoing this intricate web, the New Essenes propose two possibilities: 1) to go to the most influential book ever – the Bible: whether living in Timbuktu, Paris or Hong Kong, it is likely that we have heard of the myth of the garden, namely Adam, Eve, the Snake and a Tree, characters who were “no good,” and who did something very, very “wrong;” 2) to have a complete different way to look at it: the wisdom teaching of the Bible is not in its story lines, but in its minute essence – the Hebrew alphabet.

That form of synchronicity is addressed by psycho-energetic sciences that speak of the indivisibility of the observer and the observed: not only am I what I see, but there is no way for me to see anything else but who I think I am! That is a huge statement, and totally pertinent to the work of transformation. Here is what we mean: what will it take, when we’re having financial problems, to actually see ourselves out of scarcity? Here is another example: we may have “tried” to lose weight, moving from one diet to another. Yet, how successful can we be when we can only see a distorted body image? Seeing is believing and believing is how we create our own personal reality: the reality of someone lacking money or of someone incapable to lose weight! During all that time, there is a parallel universe that hosts the exact version of us – the “change we wish to see.” Thus the invitation – to change our mind, our beliefs, i.e.; what we think and thus “sync,” so that the results of our communication aligns with what we say we want. XPR challenges us to take back our projections, starting and ending with THE greatest projection of all – this of a “Creator God,” especially when we make “Him” a punishing one! That’s a big step and an ultimate step! Yet, how else but on a path that is the psychological decoding of the Judeo-Christian scriptures can we take that ultimate step? ps. whether you are joining us live, or are listening to one of our archived meetings, we recommend that you download the New Essenes eBook and have it available to follow along. 01:00:00Elevate The SoulnoThat exact discussion – I am what I see created – goes to the core of Language & Syncing, the page we are about to explore.

As for us, we are looking forward to emptying our “cup” a little bit more with each session, as we’re experiencing the multi-modal angles of our New Essenes’ ebook… For it is in emptying our cup that we can increasing “receive” and delight in our integriTEA! The word “increasing” implies time, and brings us to our upcoming subject matter: “Language & Time.” Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could just instantaneously wake up, and remain awake? It appears that, for most of us, enlightenment is a gradual process – a process through time. What is time? Why would we delay that which we say we want the most? Why be afraid of speed?  The mind seems to picture time as moving forward… Yet science has challenged this belief, and proved the accuracy of the mystics’ perception of no time/no mind (there is no past, no future – just an emPowering of the NOW). As per Stephen Hawking, “the increase of disorder is what distinguishes past from future, and gives a direction to time.” The New Essenes is a gathering of ordinary people practicing deep introspection as a way to solve everyday problems. Our inquiry is based on the idea that language is alive and that the Word is where our Power lives: since speech is an act, communication is not what is said and done, but the result of what is said and done.

In the spirit of celebration for the transition to come. We have been quite busy preparing many gifts for you – actually, for all of us. We are pleased to share several exciting announcements: first, a brand-new New Essenes ebook, a writing that has come into its own voice, and second, for those of you who live in the Austin/Central Texas area, a live New Essenes workshop on January 13th, and third, a very real way to “Elevate the Soul.”? So, yes, the New Essenes ebook has shed a skin, and come into a new resonance. As much as some of its pages are familiar, it offers a new organization – a new way to look at “IT,” the Living Word that is more perceptible, more loving, more logical. Its transformation is our transformation. Its newfound lightness is our new found lightness, its clarity (or the lack of it) is also ours, as we are the Living Word, whether we know it or not.??Yes, finding our voice is of the Essene/Essence, a theme which will be the basis of our inquiry on this coming Sunday. How delicious is it truly to hear the Voice telling me what to do, to actually do it, and to have my results? When I am a daughter of the Voice – rather than a doubter of it – I feel like I belong. I am home sweet OM, in my heart, within my habitat! I mean what I say and say what I mean.  We will start at noon EST / 11 AM CST / 9 AM PST this Sunday and explore “Language and Habitat”  page 8 of the New Essenes eBook (please make sure you have downloaded the latest version). 01:07:00Elevate The SoulnoOM,heart,soul,habitat,languageWe trust this message finds you enjoying the season!

Here is one: “If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask, for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than five minutes.” What will it take for me to do what I know to do? That’s the question asked by the New Essenes, hinting at the communication problem that begins with me, and eventually translates into “no one gets me!” Well, if understanding the Self was so easy, what don’t you give it a chance? But then, if I were to really hear me, I would have to stop resisting my own recipe for happiness. I would have to feel my feelings and welcome the rhythms of my soul – for fast or slow, for good or bad! I would have to change. So I much rather stay in my head, and disconnect from understanding, that is, from feeling for real what my heart is saying. Doing so, I cut myself off from language. Tune in for more...

The gatherings of the New Essenes also allow for the QKabbalah of We, a “receiving” that makes for a common perspective: instead of I versus you, a team is formed by the synergy of me and you.

During our last two broadcasts we explored the XPR Hypothesis (P32) posing a series of questions beginning with the question “What If,” as a way to make room for change, although changing or transforming is resisted because it is a death! It occurs as I die to who I think I am, to be born into who I really am. That death is invited by the 1st of the FOUR Motions of XPR (P36) that says, “Self-Knowledge: understanding intellectually that I am One is a great beginning. Understanding it experientially and thus sustainably embodying that knowing, is life’s ultimate goal—a “time” when all notion of goals and planning disappears.” In addition to the weekly format of The New Essenes; this evening's show allows you to feel your way around the Mouth.

Instead, I see the divine light in everyone and everything. Thus far, studies have shown that only .05% of the world population is awake. Therefore 99.5% of the people are not ready to adopt the behavior of LOVE. The XPR Hypothesis makes room for change: What if a Language of Nature existed before the beginning of time, to trace a path to the emergence of a Society Aware that its nature is LOVE, a path thus far hidden securely in concealed codes?

Ahh, the search for love, approval and/or recognition: it will get "you!" This mind set causes a tremendous degree of anguish to the point where they seem to give up. An actor recently overdosed on heroin as he relapsed into his addiction. What pain was he trying to treat? What hole was he wanting to fill through the roles he played? What did he seek to understand? Recent incidents of shootings in schools, malls and government buildings end up in destroying life. The rate of suicides is increasing. Perhaps some say they want to give up because it doesn't seem to matter: what's the use, anyway? They attach to the belief that they are criticized, ostracized, continuously put down and not enough. By attaching to that story, they can only focus on the proofs that it is true. Here it is; they are not enough! Why would someone scan the land, so to speak, to verify that pitiful story? What is the root of this suffering? What role does rejection play in it? Moreover, who is rejecting whom? On the note of rejection, how does rejecting another immediately result in having me fear rejection? And vice-versa: how does my fear of rejection lead me to reject myself or the other? The impacts of this defilement are tremendous: does my not taking a "no" for an answer interfere with my body processes? In connecting it to the mouth center, might my fear of rejection cause me to have acid reflux, an ailment that seems to touch so many of us? Can this mental process be understood and cleaned up?

Thank you for tuning in...Happy New Now! OUR LAST SHOW THIS YEAR: A GIFT FROM PARENTS AND THE COMMUNITY TO THE COMMUNITY. Is it possible that a school would pass students forward to ensure meeting a legislative mandate when those students cannot master their grade level? How can parents reconcile that their children are not prepared for the academic, social and economic challenges ahead? One parent states, “I work all day, have two other children at two different schools, a child in childcare and a husband to drop off and pick up each day. I’m doing the best I can to support my child and it is the school’s fault. My child was not having problems until she came to your school.” There are other parents in the same position whose children are doing quite well. What is the difference? Is there a correlation with the level of involvement of parents with the school and the success of their children? Are there things parents can be doing to better help their children? How do we move beyond blame, take responsibility and support our children? Hear from parents, a teacher and an educator on what they do and recommend. A special segment of this show will also include the impact at the junior college level when the work is not done in the early grades. Matt Layton, M.Ed., Certified Reading Specialist and Currently 4th Grade Teacher, Ebony Thomas, Admissions Coordinator for the School of Health Professions and an Adjunct Faculty Member, and Parents of “Real” Students join as our guests. Emilio Williams, Dean of Student and Family Life, is your host. 01:31:00Elevate The SoulnoChildren,Education,Responsibility,Parents,SuccessBack In February. Thank you for tuning in...Happy New Now!

Invite All Concerned Something happened when I began working every day directly with young people. Up until that time I only had insights into watching my grandchildren grow, develop and navigate the world. I would look at other children and wonder how they make it; what their lives must be like, what resources do they have available? Then I began to become acutely aware of how many of them do not feel safe at home, safe at school; how many of them who may be basically raising themselves; how many of them that may be carrying the baggage and legacy of those who brought them here. There are many more beacons of light than one could imagine. My message is to focus on the light but even in the midst of what you may perceive as darkness there is possibility and there is great beauty. Many times when you ask a child why and they tell you that they don't know...they are being 150% honest with you. We must figure it out together. Tonight's Special Guest: Jerry Flemming, Concerned Parent, Youth Mentor, Street Saavy, On-Point Man, Brother and Friend; joins us on October 4th for the first in a series of candid dialogues regarding the state of our youth: who they are, where they are, why they are - going through many of the challenges they currently face in simple day-to-day living, functioning and their own personal growth. Author of an upcoming book entitled, The Animal In Me, will begin to share personal insights on how we can be a true village and understand what it takes for our youth.

Mom was only 61 years of age and dad was 76 years of age. Both experienced physical challenges associated with weight, diabetes, elevated blood pressure, and dad ended with a bout with leukemia, chemotherapy and other issues. As I reflect over my family history and consider other family members on both sides of the family, the degree of morbid obesity in the U.S., the early onset of adult diseases in children; I am moved to communicate with as many people as possible the importance of maintaining optimal health. The work begins here. I appreciate your taking precious moments to visit with us and share your comments. As the blog expands we will continue to provide information about wellness and other topics related to wellness as we continue to make every attempt to heal our communities through proper nutrition, health, exercise, diet and more.

Herring Curator, Framer, Painter, Multi-Media Artist, Specializing in Recoverable Wood joins us for the 4th part of the Creativity Series. Hank Herring was born in Rose Hill, North Carolina in 1956. He learned about art at an early age from watching and being instructed by artistic family members.  His grandfathers, one a carpenter by trade, made walking canes.  The other a farmer, whittled.  Hank learned about colors and patterns watching his grandmothers and mother sew quilts.  He taught himself to draw and paint after receiving a gift of art supplies from his uncle, who inspired Hank to pursue his artistic development. Upon graduation from High School, Hank enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, where he served twenty years.  With his specialty as a machinist he worked in many mediums: metals, plastics, glass and composite materials.  During this time, Hank continued to draw, paint and make crafted boxes and small furniture. Working with driftwood or found wood, Hank illustrates the natural patterns (eyes, faces, animals) that can be seen without the manipulation of tools or paint.  His construction and assemblages are made with objects trouves,  "found objects" or “rescued materials” as he calls them. Working with “rescued materials Hank illustrates that beauty can be found in anything.  “It requires the right attitude, the desire and a healthy imagination. “Art should stir your soul and ignite your imagination.” http://hankdherringart.com/Herring_Gallery.html http://hankdherringart.com/Wood-n-Thangs_TV.html http://hankdherringart.com/Wood_Stamps.html 01:01:00Elevate The Soulnoart,educational,creativity,curator,rescued-materialsCurator, Framer, Painter, Multi-Media Artist, Specializing in Recoverable Wood joins us for the 4th part of the Creativity Series.

In 2001, soon after her training, she left her position in accounting and “birthed” Sacred Healing.  Embarking on her healing journey DeAnna started doing this great work and service in response to her heartfelt desire to assist her community to have a better quality of life.   Since that time, DeAnna has been highlighted on many radio stations including WOL, WOLB, WEAA, WHUR and WPFW.  She was the subject of a feature article in the Washington Informer and has participated in several health fairs and community events.  Her journey continues as she constantly encourages the community to “be good to yourself by relaxing the mind, healing the body and rejuvenating the spirit.” http://www.yoursacredhealing.com/ 01:01:00Elevate The Soulnoalternative,healing,saging,egyptian,sacredThe Saging Baby Boomer Show begins a month-long series on alternative health to be "fit and fabulous" beyond age 50.  It is often stated that after age 30 it'http://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/07/21/from-superman-to-man-featuring-lord-jamel-wade-creatorSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/07/21/from-superman-to-man-featuring-lord-jamel-wade-creator/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/07/21/from-superman-to-man-featuring-lord-jamel-wade-creatorThu, 21 Jul 2011 22:00:00 GMTFrom "Superman" to Man Featuring Lord Jamel Wade ~ Creator JAMEL WADE – Executive Director/Writer/ Producer/ Director/Singer/Lord The native New Yorker from of Fort Green, Brooklyn is a graduate Villa Julie College and Howard Community College, with a Bachelors in Film, Video and Theater and an Associates in Theater Performance and Technical Theater.

The music resonates with an additional blessing for everyone who is dealing with any form of cancer.   http://www.youtube.com/PatriciaCotaRobles#p/a/u/0/VtMUuP2tfyU 01:32:00Elevate The Soulnocelestial,celluar,consciousness,soul,creativityMUSICAL  RAPTURE A Healing Gift for Humanity We return to our roots: March 2009 when we first began Elevate The Soul with the initial question of What does ihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/06/27/life-tree-station-respiratory-system-and-what-you-can-doHealthhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/06/27/life-tree-station-respiratory-system-and-what-you-can-do/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/06/27/life-tree-station-respiratory-system-and-what-you-can-doMon, 27 Jun 2011 18:00:00 GMTLife Tree Station: Respiratory System and What You Can Do1st 30 Min - Dee Dee Shaw, Certified Weight Loss Coach & Wellness Counselor.

As the youngest “Boomers” are turning age 50, they are retiring and seeking alternative life choices and expanded possibilities in order to “recreate” themselves. So, this show advances “Saging Power!”  Want to be 50+ Fit and Fabulous; de-stress, inspired, have fun, connect with others, have intergenerational dialogue, gain caretaker coping skills, change and take action? Then, listen in and join this community for positive “Saging” with “old-school” music - the 50’s and 60’s, soundtrack of our lives. THIS WEEK: Tributes and audience shout-outs to Dads featuring the internationally acclaimed Poet, Danny R. Queen. When asked about his writing career, Mr. Queen gestures that he's been writing "since I was this high." He recalls times as a youth going from door-to-door in his neighborhood in Laurel in Prince George's County, Maryland, reading and selling his poetry to anyone who had the time and pocket change to offer. This was the beginning of the road to becoming the Master Spoken-word Poet that is Danny Queen. He has been the chief distributor of his work, which has been carried in major book chains like Waldenbooks, B. Dalton, and Barnes & Noble. http://www.queenspalaceinc.com  01:20:00Elevate The Soulnofathers,poetry,youth,spoken-word,intergenerationalThose born 1946 – 1964, are the fastest growing segment of the U.S.A. population.

It is for those who are seeking to live with power rather live powerlessly. It is intended for those who are seeking to do and be more in life. This thought is for those who know that they are not living up to the greatest potential that is within them.  It is presented for those who are uncomfortable with the way they find themselves living and for those who are restless about were they find themselves. These people know that there is something great that is within them and they know that they must bring that power out in order to have peace. This information will illustrate just how this innate power can be brought out so that one can live with peace, have power and experience prosperity. http://www.blacklovecoach.com/ or http://www.innerduction.net/ and http://www.facebook.com/pages/Elevate-The-Soul-Through-Building-Cultural-Capital/117584811606166 01:09:00Elevate The Soulnomanifesting,divine,greatness,power,peaceThe S/HEroes Path & Journey: Special Guest: Dr. Kevin Washington, PhD, Lecturer, Inspirer, Consultant, Psychologist, Percussionist and much, much more.  MANIFEShttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/05/09/life-tree-stationSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/05/09/life-tree-station/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/05/09/life-tree-stationMon, 09 May 2011 18:00:00 GMTLife Tree Station: The Ups & Downs, In's & Out's of DietingLife Tree Station topics will cover a wide range of issues ranging from diabetes, elevate blood pressure, weight management & diet, nutrition, health, exercise, checkups, available resources in the community and more.

Methamphetamine is a very addictive stimulant that is closely related to amphetamine. It is long lasting and toxic to dopamine nerve terminals in the central nervous system. It is a white, odorless, bitter-tasting powder taken orally or by snorting or injecting, or a rock "crystal" that is heated and smoked. Methamphetamine increases wakefulness and physical activity, produces rapid heart rate, irregular heartbeat, and increased blood pressure and body temperature. Long-term use can lead to mood disturbances, violent behavior, anxiety, confusion, insomnia, and severe dental problems. All users, but particularly those who inject the drug, risk infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS and hepatitis. I Hate Meth, a non-profit in Campbell County Kentucky, has taken a stand and is moving forward to attack this insidious drug and abuse that is destroying the fabric of lives each day. How can the message shift to focus more on what is wanted than that which is not? Learn what you can do. Join us for this SPECIAL EDITION SHOW.

Marti Hess came to an understanding that in her own life she played these great roles (great mother, great wife, and great corporate professional), and as she states, “but who I was and who I am was lost.  Once I learned how to do things from my “beingness” – from who I am, I was able to approach life in a different way, changing my life.” We are asking more women to take the opportunity to rediscover themselves and their passions in life, providing an outlet for them to express themselves in creative ways and travel on a reflective journey. Marti's programs include Creative Spirits workshops which facilitate the awakening and expansion of creativity in those who attend. In addition she is a facilitator for The Peaceful Woman, providing spiritual retreats, which take place on Maui. Join us April 21, 2011 when our special guest, Marti Hess, Professional Life Coach and President of Envisionista shares her experience and wisdom. 01:26:00Elevate The Soulnobeing,women,roles,expectations,achievementEnvisionistais a resource for women who want to find more meaning and purpose in their lives.

The topic this week addresses the three major reasons that people have health challenges: Malnutrition, toxins, and dehydration. Convincing everyone to agree that we are bombarded with toxins isn’t difficult. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Toxins are used to preserve, toxins are used to sweeten, toxins are used to flavor. They are the end result of the machines we use, and every breath we take is laden with tiny molecules that cause oxidative stress in our bodies. Not only does oxidative stress cause us to age faster, it puts us at risk for disease because it lowers our body’s defense system. It is no wonder that cancer is occurring at epidemic rates.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with philosophical speculation, but let’s not mistake conceptual thought for the spiritual practice of everyday life. After all, what does it serve to know whether angels wear earrings if we can’t hold a regular job or maintain a long-term relationship? What good does it do to pray like a saint or meditate like a yogi if we are unchanged when we open our eyes? What good to attend a place of worship on Saturday or Sunday if we lack compassion on Monday?” – Author, Dan Millman Join us as we do our best with the guidance of Dan Millman and his book to share practical applications and what works for us on a day to day basis. 01:08:00Elevate The Soulnoself worth,enlightenment,personal growth,spiritual,humanityJoin us as we share aspects of Dan Millman's Book, Everyday Enlightenment: 12 Gateways to Personal Growth. “When people ask me abstract questions about time, ohttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/04/11/whats-wrong-with-our-food-killer-foods-and-what-to-avoidHealthhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/04/11/whats-wrong-with-our-food-killer-foods-and-what-to-avoid/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2011/04/11/whats-wrong-with-our-food-killer-foods-and-what-to-avoidMon, 11 Apr 2011 18:00:00 GMTWhat's Wrong With Our Food?

Mom was only 61 years of age and dad was 76 years of age. Both experienced physical challenges associated with weight, diabetes, elevated blood pressure, and dad ended with a bout with leukemia, chemotherapy and other issues. As I reflect over my family history and consider other family members on both sides of the family, the degree of morbid obesity in the U.S. , the early onset of adult diseases in children; I am moved to communicate with as many people as possible the importance of maintaining optimal health.

This is very alarming considering the onset of childhood disease and the future of quality of life for many. A wide variety of nutritious foods are available in the U.S., however, many Americans do not eat the array of foods that will provide all needed nutrients while staying within calorie needs. In the U.S., intakes of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and mild milk products and oils are lower than recommended. As a result, dietary intakes of several nutrients – potassium, dietary fiber, calcium, and vitamin D are low enough to be of public health concern for both adults and children. Several other nutrients also are of concern for specific population groups, such as folic acid for women who are capable of becoming pregnant. FEATURED GUEST: MARK MANDELA. Mark has been a clinical nutritionist, based in the Washington, D. C. area, for 25 years. Over those years, he had been seeking ways to help people find the best way to live life to its fullest. He was introduced to Moringa Oleifera by a long-time friend and patient, Leigh Dawson. Leigh shared with him how Moringa Oleifera had cleared up all of his liver spots and skin tags on his face and head. He was very interested because he was had been unable to help him with these problems in the past. After receiving so many amazing results with others, he decided to run a small clinical trial with Wanda Dyson MD, a internal medicine doctor with whom he worked. She was the first to be affected by the miracle tree and she told me "that she had never seen anything like it." I introduced my next-door neighbor to Moringa. Rafael had severe acid reflux and also was using several over the counter medicines for allergies. In just a few days he was symptom free. That's when he realized Moringa was truly special because those were two health issues with which he also had trouble! 02:02:00Elevate The Soulnomoringa oleifera,vitamin,nutrition,health,obeseIt is a known fact that many Americans (family members, loved ones, co-workers) are overweight and in many cases considered obese.

Is It Ok To Be Unhappy In Relationships: Frank Love Is The Topic!!!Celebrating our two-year anniversary and the day of my birth into this mortal realm we plan to have fun, celebrate and talk about Frank Love. People lie to you because you have not made them comfortable with telling you the truth. Commitment is over-rated. We are all selfish in our relationships, even when we seem to put our partners before us. It is okay to be unhappy in relationships “if that’s what you really want. Ideas like these are frank love.” Frank love is the honest advice that cuts through the social norms of common relationship issues. Frank love reminds you that these complexities are illusions laden with human emotion and long-held societal beliefs about how romantic love “shoulds” look. Frank love informs you that these “shoulds” will likely land you in unhealthy relationships. Frank love liberates your mind and heart to think creatively about romance. Always ready to break it down, frank love is the pull you can use when you are stuck in an unsatisfying relationship dynamic; and the push that can motivate you to release your attachments to the perceived security of relationships, one which often results in self-deception and pain. FEATURED GUEST: Frank Love is the pseudonym or alter-ego of Yao Tyus, loving mate, father of four and author of the upcoming relationship book, All the Best. A native of D.C., Tyus has degrees from both Howard and George Washington Universities but no formal training in relationship dynamics. However, he has spent years watching his and other’s relationships face challenges around loyalty, trust and partnership, and he began to question his own motives and methods in relationships. Instead of resting comfortably in the status quo, sleepwalking toward a content and comfortable future, Tyus decided to push the envelope in his relationships, and to encourage others to do the same. Thus, Frank Love – a revolutionary spirit living deep in Tyus’s psyche – was born. 02:01:00Elevate The Soulnolove,advice,honesty,relationships,romanceCelebrating our two-year anniversary and the day of my birth into this mortal realm we plan to have fun, celebrate and talk about Frank Love.

"The only time we suffer is when we believe a thought that argues with what is. When the mind is perfectly clear, what is is what we want.”-Byron Katie from Loving What Is. Good morning, this is God. I will be handling all of your problems today. I will not need your help, so have a miraculous day.” – Wayne Dyer. “I rarely let the word NO escape from my mouth because it is so plain to my soul that God has shouted, Yes! Yes! Yes! to every luminous movement in existence”. – Hafez. What is it about the mind that wants to become engaged in the externals, the sense data that it creates? How and what meanings that are made? How does this unwillingness to Yes creates the confusion and hellusion that is experienced? What is our response to Japan? NFL strike? March madness? Politics? Join us as we discuss Loving What Is and a review of some of Byron Katie’s work – “Juging Your Neighbor Worksheet” and critical questions that need to be asked: 1. Is it true? 2. Can you absolutely know that it’s true? 3. How do you react, what happens, when you believe that thought? 4. Who would you be without the thought? Celeste Morgan will share her readings and Ayo Handy-Kendi will be taking us through practical and experiential applications of the charkas.02:02:00Elevate The Soulnoloving,byron katie,suffer,chakras,yesTonight's show is centered in a discussion and reflection on the Book, "Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life, by Byron Katie.

Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacobs hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. And He said Let Me go, for the day breaks. But he said, I will not let You go unless You bless me! So He said to him, What is your name? He said Jacob. And He said, Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed. Then Jacob asked, saying Tell me Your name, I pray. And He said, Why is it that you ask about My name? And He blessed him there." -Gen. 32:24-29. As we journey and strive to awaken we begin to evaluate and appreciate the experience. Moving from contraction to expansion, from the outer shell to the inner BEing, from the natural to the spiritual, from energy formed to energy forming and more.

When many are experiencing recession, poverty, homelessness, inadequate food supplies, waste and toxicity, lack of education, affordable housing and more...how do we justify the Oscars, Grammys and all of the other forms of entertainment that through illusion attempt to give the idea that it will lift us out of the reality manifested in this material realm? I've even heard people say, hmph, I'm Gon Have Mine! You’re going to die from something. It’s not my job to tell them what to do. I know my responsibility is for my own consciousness and yet my heart yearns to serve others. Join us and share what practical steps we can take and how we can begin to make better determinations to shape our next steps NOW. Joining us this week we welcome Ayo Handy-Kendi as a regular weekly guest and expert as she brings a long overdue message regarding our energy centers aka Chakras.

Do we need to remind you that you must become like a child? Do we need to remind you that all work and no play make Joshua a dull boy? When is the last time that you gave yourself permission to play, to laugh, to rip and run, to make new friends? This show celebrates the play within us that seeks to play outside ourselves. Come play with us tonight as you are invited to bring poetry, music, readings, story, (experiences, metaphors, parable, movies, jokes, art, sculpture, links you want us to look at and comment on, etc.). We believe that experiential learning processes provide opportunities for building skills in leadership, communication, problem solving, valuing differences and many others. With the degrees of tension in the air associated with economic, social and political challenges facing us today, we have become so insulated that we have forgotten the joy of laughter, play and the exchange between one another in ways that are uplifting to each one engaged. Adults learn best when they are actively involved in their own learning, meaning that instruction for adults needs to focus more on the process and less on the content being taught. Strategies such as case studies, role-playing, simulations, stories and self-evaluation are most useful. Our team assumes the role of facilitator and introduces a multi-mensionality of processes opening unlimited potentiality for everyone. We will also talk about the upcoming workshop session and invite you to join us on March 5th for a full day in Alexandria, Virginia. This session is about having awesome fun while you are learning. RESERVE A SPOT TODAY AS WE ARE TARGETING SPACE AND PROVISIONS FOR 20-25. Training Team Includes: Gregory Woods aka Dawn Wolf, Celeste Morgan, Pam Tinker, and Emilio Williams.

It is one of the three most recognizable archetypes, the others being the anima and animus and the persona. "Everyone carries a shadow," Jung wrote," and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is." Is it more than all of this?

When her mother, Linda Lee Harris, ended her battle with breast cancer on December 17, 2005, Celeste barely recognized her own life. She found it hard to be in the world and profoundly experienced the loss of covering, as in losing her protection or foundation. During her development and growing up, Linda Lee Harris provided loving, mothering and honored all of her expressions unconditionally. Along the grief journey, Celeste attempted to regain the loss outside her self through avoidance, suppression, and denial that did not serve her well. True healing finally began when she took the journey home through her own heart and mind. As deep desire to connect with the truth of who she is continued to grow, she learned that the Universe supplied mightily as she reconciled with family, connected with community and friends, and made decisions to honor her own path. Celeste firmly believes that every day is an opportunity to grow and show up and be a blessing. With deep gratitude and appreciation, she speaks about the gifts of grief and will explore strategies for accepting and learning how to receive the blessings found in transitions. How are we doing as we approach the holidays? Which tools are you employing? Is there a loved one you would like to remember? Where is our living water and sacred well from which we draw the energy we most need? Who do we become in an effort to reconcile loss? Who do we hurt as we clumsily walk our path trying to deny the fruit of its painful sting? How do we invite loving experiences into our lives when we are grieving? Celeste Morgan, MSW, LGSW, U of MD, B.A. in Human Relations, Trinity U. Celeste worked as a volunteer and Health Program Manager at SMYAL–Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League.

Each year the suicide rate increases during November 20 – January 10. Many others reflect on loved ones who are no longer physically around, with whom they shared memories of old; while others concentrate and focus on loved ones standing at the door of transition. We know that it is what is within you (source, essence, power, God, Chi, breath, light, etc.) that defines who you are and not what you have been told by media or educational institutions or for that matter, who you are with. Empathy is an essential aspect of providing help, coaching, understanding, however, it is also a source for compassion fatigue, vicarious traumatisation or secondary traumatic stress (STS). When we touch another they also touch us. Helpers, light workers, change agents need to take care of themselves as well. For how can you take care of another (effectively) when you can’t take care of yourself. How will you stay vibrant and powerful? This is a call to other light workers. This is a family affair. Join us as we share insights that will help us remain healthy as we minister, listen to, care for, love others. Some ideas may include: Learn to say no without feeling guilty, take time for pleasure, change your environment, take short breaks, realize when a situation or problem should be referred to another helper, be aware of your energy limits, stop when these limits have been reached, prioritize your time, know your strengths and weaknesses, communicate with people who understand your endeavor, practice optimism and humor, remember the Four Agreements.

Dr Akbar attests that this lack of respect has led to a generally imbalanced sense of human nurturance in worldwide cultures, which have been dominated or heavily influenced by Western culture, indeed it has become an essential part of it. In the TIMELINE™; a graphic attempt to display an historical continuum of 8,000 years (7,000 years past and 1,000 years projected forward into the future) are three key facets the author wishes to portray: the role of the generative power of women, the duration of the left-brained masculine led culture as opposed to the balanced, and whole-brained cultures of the past and the portrayal of the limited and limiting Ages of Slavery; Trans-Saharan and especially the Trans-Atlantic. Paul will discuss some of the contemporary applications of confusion due directly to the psychological impact of the misogyny of historical discontinuity that has assassinated both the respect for the central key role of our Mother Principle, and the assertion of the balance of our masculine and feminine powers reflected in the word IN-DIVI-DUAL; the Inner Division of Duality.

Can sound impact the soul? Can some sounds keep us at a visceral or survival level? Waves of sound energy move outward in all directions from the source. Your vocal chords and the strings on a guitar are both sources that vibrate to produce sound waves. Without energy, there would be no sound. Sound travels through air, water, or a block of steel; thus, all are mediums for sound. Without a medium there are no particles to carry the sound waves.

Why Do It? How to Forgive and What Happens When You Won'tForgiveness requires courage and risks to exemplify grace and to grant mercy to others. We all make mistakes but only a few have the strength to forgive. Mistakes have been life giving while others are life taking, some with what we allow to grow and decay around us, and others that appear to be beyond our control. What does it mean to forgive? A Christian woman who survived a Nazi concentration camp during the Holocaust, said, "Forgiveness is to set a prisoner free, and to realize the prisoner was you."“Generally, forgiveness is a decision to let go of resentment and thoughts of revenge. The act that hurt or offended you may always remain a part of your life, but forgiveness can lessen its grip on you and help you focus on other, positive parts of your life. Forgiveness can even lead to feelings of understanding, empathy and compassion for the one who hurt you. Forgiveness doesn't mean that you deny the other person's responsibility for hurting you, and it doesn't minimize or justify the wrong. You can forgive the person without excusing the act. Forgiveness brings a kind of peace that helps you go on with life.” - Katherine Piderman, Ph.D. “Forgiveness must be a choice because to expect someone to forgive can victimize them all over again. Forgiveness is also a journey and not a destination: in other words it is rarely a one-off, fixed event or a single magnanimous gesture in response to an isolated offence. It is part of a continuum of human engagements in healing broken relationships.” – http://theforgivenessproject.com Catherine is proclaimed as an Inner Resolution Facilitator of peace, compassion, forgiveness and love. She offers individual, family and group Inner Resolution Facilitation that invites individuals to be gentle, compassionate, and courageous as they put down their weapon of choice and step into a field of Grace. "When you can separate your "story" from the facts then you can live in deep inner peace and heal all areas of your life." 01:31:00Elevate The SoulnoFear,Forgiveness,Compassion,Letting-go,MercyForgiveness requires courage and risks to exemplify grace and to grant mercy to others.

That which is focused on the spiritual realm energizes love. What are you energizing in your life? Job said,“ That which I feared the most has suddenly come upon me and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.” David said, “Though I walk through the valley of the SHADOW of death, I shall fear no evil”. Franklin D. Roosevelt said, “The Only Thing We Have To Fear Is Fear Itself”. Mark Williams said, “Illusion is the partner of evil and fear is the enforcer. Once human beings become afraid, they seek innumerable ways to remove their anxieties and discomforts. Many seek escape. Some humans attempt to control their environment and those within it. They hope to minimize the possibility that the unknown, the uncontrollable, or some human will harm them. But power over the unknown is just an illusion. Soul destiny is not dictated by the power to control others’ actions. Most of the scary places are within. Humans just try to control their external environment because they’ve lost control of their internal world. The origin of most fear can be traced to pain or death. You must develop a healthy understanding and acceptance of these two aspects of life in order to grow."-M Williams. Courage is moving forward in spite of fear and pain. (This is where you need faith and trust in order to know). Pride forces us to cover up the fears with false bravado. “Your fear is an adventure. It is not real–you are making it all up. Call your fear an adventure and you will bring in an energy that will heal fear, the energy of excitement and inspiration, the energy of being inspired by life itself. Life is a process that informs life about life through the process of life itself. If you live your life through that excitement you will soon there is nothing to fear. Life becomes a great joy in which it was intended to be.”-N. Walsch.

I must fight you for my survival.” A wise Holacaust survivor once said, “…when you allow one people to define themselves as superior to another, the logical consequences are gas chambers and the burning of bodies. Don’t let it happen.” There are nearly 6 billion people on the planet. One in six of us go hungry each day. A. H. Almaas said, “Everyone has a survival instinct. Our most powerful instinct is for the survival of the organism. If a persons’ instinct for survival is distorted because of certain childhood experiences, he might become fearful that he won’t be able to provide enough for himself. He feels insecure because of something that happened in his childhood that interfered with and blocked the energy. The result is an attempt to fill holes. Join us as we discuss the Scarcity Myth and the implications it has for our families, our communities, our world and us. The Scarcity Myth The real customer is your mind He who controls the mind controls the world and He who controls his own mind controls his own world The competition is for your mind The advertiser is the material realm, organized, directed and executed by the creators of the scarcity myth projected It is all designed -- to influence your mind From which the responses and choices flow And if you don’t see it coming and it will be humming Then you’ll think, feel and ultimately do what it wants and you can’t pretend that you didn’t know So cast off and deny TV but what you fail to see Is that the spirit, the wisdom that is behind all of this Control magazines, newspapers, social networks, movies, books and billboards and everything else there might be. 01:31:00Elevate The Soulnoscarcity,poverty,greed,money,lensesMark Williams, founder of The Diversity Channel and Author of “The 10 Lenses: Your Guide to Living & Working in A Multicultural World” defines the Scarcity Mythhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/09/30/perception-perspective-shifting-co-creating-opposite-experiencesSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/09/30/perception-perspective-shifting-co-creating-opposite-experiences/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/09/30/perception-perspective-shifting-co-creating-opposite-experiencesThu, 30 Sep 2010 22:00:00 GMTPerception & Perspective Shifting: Co-Creating Opposite ExperiencesThe description will be further developed over the next few days.

They envision a healthy, flourishing planet and society that sustainably and equitably meets the needs of all its citizens through an environmental movement that is diverse, inclusive, successful, vibrant, relevant, and takes into account the needs, perspectives, and voices of all. Assertions that People of Color are not interested in, engaged or that they don’t value the environment, as do their European counterparts is entirely a falsehood. Robert Emmet Jones, Society and Natural Resources states, “The overall evidence shows that concern for the environment is not just an issue for whites and that a “concern gap”; between whites and blacks probably does not exist. It also demonstrates that support among blacks for environmental protection did not decline more than it did for whites during hard economic periods. There is limited evidence to suggest that blacks place a slightly higher priority than do whites on improving the conditions of the social environment than on the state of the environment in general.” We must better understand the full scope of the environment, connection to ourselves, air we breathe, employment opportunities, global warming, real food supply, use and abuse of the natural resources within our reach and under our feet, and how do we expose and encourage our children to reconnect. Join us as our featured Guest, Marcelo Bonta, founder and Executive Director of the Center for Diversity & the Environment, and the founder of the Environmental Professionals of Color, a growing network of over 300 leaders of color across the U.S. joins us.

However, many of us are there and have gone through painful experiences to learn what ultimately could have been learned at the feet of the Master. Calling all who would be so humble as to share at least one thing you are learning on THIS life journey. If we cannot share our stories how will others ever know our experiences? If others don’t have a sense of our experiences, from where will empathy come? If empathy cannot be obtained how can we ever relate? If we will not relate how will we shut down the disintegration, not just of ourselves, but also of a nation? If we cannot see the similarities will our only choice be to focus on the differences? If we only focus on the differences does that cause the need to further define ourselves? The more we define ourselves the more we divide ourselves. United we stand…AT-ONE-MENT.

Sometimes it is an affectionate souvenir that we are never truly alone, and a gentile reminder that solitude is a welcomed companion. Community is the doorway to our existence. It is life’s formidable adversary; baiting us to once again leave solitude for company-gently reminding us, if we give more than we take there will always be “some” to be had. Community the great reflector of truth shines its light so bright on the soul of each and every one of us. It rocks us to sleep and startles us awake. It is the bosom of humanity embracing us with and to love, and the fist of love daring us to hate. Community, community, community is the unity of I and the inflection of the “we”. Community resonates from heart. It reflects existence through existence. Community invocation is reflective. It mirrors our collective call. The only filter we have is perception and it too is reflective of person. Community invocation is the yin of our personal yang, the ebb to each one of our flow. It is the waltz of each members projected image out onto the dance floor of life. When we are internally chaotic this image can become convoluted and misconstrued. And our waltz is turned into a slam dance. When we are internally harmonious and living from Maat, the dance moves from a waltz to Macru. Just Cause II: The Call of A Community is the exploration of how we create this dance together. We all participate either through submission or creation, in sublime awareness or total ignorance. It even occurs in our absence. There is no escape. It affects the very air we breathe. The water we drink and the thoughts we think. Let’s explore how it affects us so that we can learn to affect it. Community Invocation is our rite to life. She's BAAAAACK!

We have the power to align. We must know how and be willing. As men have moved from the days of hunter–gatherer in a different sense to full fledged survival beings; walking everywhere, carrying everything, finding food, securing shelter, fighting off predators and other enemies; they now sit behind desks, computers, drive or fly everywhere, get their meat at the counter, order take out, whew…how are they balancing the energy and testosterone that is no longer being used in heavy doses as in the past. How have women been impacted and what are the impacts as many women become more assertive to survive and care for their families? Audre Lorde wrote, "The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house." In this case, the "master's tools" are those gender constructed roles which imprison both men and women equally, but differently. Tonight on Elevate the Soul, we will consider how society's expectations of a woman's divine beauty is often blocked from the experience of acknowledging how SHE chooses to live her life with truth and light in her own voice. From newspapers, music videos, magazines, talk show hosts, women are bombarded with messages about what it takes to be a REAL woman. While the conversation may start with what is not working, we also invite you to share your strength. How do women tune into their strength? Are women sharing their pearls of wisdom with younger women?

Meditation involves achieving a state of ‘thoughtless awareness’ in which the excessive stress producing activity of the mind is neutralized without reducing alertness and effectiveness. Anyone can do it. It s also free. Learning to honor and work with the energy - the Mother - within. Sahaja means spontaneous, and it also means "born with you". Every person is born with a latent kind of spiritual energy, and an inner mechanism which, when accessed, can allow us to meditate and connect with our inner self. "Yoga" means union or a connection with the Self. So Sahaja Yoga means the spontaneous connection or union with the Self or the spirit. FEATURED GUEST: Matthew Pearce will join us. Our brother Matthew has known about this form of meditation for over 31 years around age 9. He started practicing in his mid teens. His path was through the martial arts in an effort to maintain silence. Matthew currently teaches physics and runs a research program for inspiring scientists.

Join us this week as we host our Guest: Street Sense. FEATURED GUESTS INCLUDE: Abby Strunk, Executive Director and Martin Walker, Vendor and Board Member. Street Sense is a Washington, D.C.-based 16-page biweekly street newspaper that was founded in 2003. Its mission is to raise public awareness on the issues of homelessness and poverty in the city and to create economic opportunities for people experiencing homelessness. The newspaper features news, features, editorials, poems and art about homelessness and poverty and other social issues. About 50% of the paper is written by homeless and formerly homeless individuals, and the other articles come from our staff and volunteers, who include journalists, students, advocates and a wide variety of other professionals. In 2008 20% vendors found housing and 25% started part-time or full-time jobs, many of which were offered to them while selling the paper. And last year nearly all vendors reported a marked improvement in their lives since starting the paper. Such changes include reconnecting with family, developing their writing and communication skills or simply gaining a sense of pride and self-respect. Street Sense not only offers its vendors a newspaper to sell, but it also connects them to other service providers to meet their needs, including finding housing, accessing health care or enrolling them in financial management or job training classes.01:00:00Elevate The Soulnopoverty,partnerships,self-sufficiency,homeless,educationAFTER 1ST 3 MIN-30 SECONDS SILENCE: EDITED VERSION http://www.koigroup.com/wetb/elevate-the-soul/elevate-the-soul-full-broadcast-listing/ Is the objective to wihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/07/08/do-you-have-or-know-a-daughter-we-need-to-talk-the-movieFamilyhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/07/08/do-you-have-or-know-a-daughter-we-need-to-talk-the-movie/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/07/08/do-you-have-or-know-a-daughter-we-need-to-talk-the-movieThu, 08 Jul 2010 22:00:00 GMTDo You Have or Know A Daughter?

When adversity comes up, do you know how you will respond? Do you recognize your trigger points or hot buttons? Are you prepared to navigate with yourself and others? What role does music, art, tarot, runes, meditations, journaling, or others play? Do you know who you are? How do we reconcile what people have told us about ourselves versus what we know to be true? Are you ready to remove the mask and get rid of the pain? Join us this week as our guest Celeste Morgan, MSW, LGSW shares her journey and how introspection and play have been critical to her walk. She has learned how to use introspection play to turn adversity into life lessons and extend moments of joy by focusing on strength, faith and by having a radical positive outlook. A foundational premise in Celeste’s work is finding the divinity in everyone and every situation. Introspection Play afforded Celeste tools to continue being her authentic self and then she shared those tools with clients, friends, and her immediate circle.

As we hear and experience the spiral down of our current civilization, is there an answer that will move us toward transformation? The tragedy real and perceived, hardships, struggle, stress and the circumstances we find ourselves engaged in brings about a loss of hope and for some, learned helplessness. Is there an answer? Are we looking in the wrong places? Are we aware that we are spiritual beings having human experiences? Many Christians would share the following: “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”-2 Chr.7:14- Could it be that simple?

Everything is connected. The effects of climate change are and will be experienced unevenly around the globe. Despite contributing little to global warming, it is the most vulnerable people that already suffer the worst of climate change. They are also the least prepared to protect themselves against this new imposed threat. How do we work with those most at risk to develop ways in which they can adapt and maintain their existing lifestyles. The decade of 1998-2007 was the warmest on record. The top 11 warmest years all occurred in the past 13 years. This warming is being caused by human activity, primarily the burning of fossil fuels. In order to avoid a catastrophic rise of over 42 degrees by the end of the century, global emissions need to have peaked by 2015 and reduced by at least 80% by 2050. Is it possible that climate racism and climate injustice leading to climate genocide exist? It is the poorest people in developing countries that are feeling the most severe human, physical, and financial impacts of climate change. They are also the least prepared to protect themselves against this new imposed threat. Practical Action is working with those most at risk to develop ways in which they can adapt and maintain their existing lifestyles.

Did racism start with African people or were they the first to experience slavery and savagery? How are people seeing racism post the Obama election? What about the insults hurled towards Michelle and Barack Obama linked to monkeys and gorillas. How do people use racism and for what purpose? Is every White person a racist? Can a Black person be a racist? Are their institutional and/or systemic issues that need to be addressed? The journey that racism has made from its origins to the present day involves several people and their ideas, theories, and actions. The language used by many of the people involved is outdated and derogatory. If you were asked where does racism come from? What would your answer be? It could be that it comes from our relatives, from the media, or because of Nazism, or slavery. All of these can be partly true, but they do not fully explain why racist ideas became so powerful, who contributed the ideas, when and where they lived, and what the impact of their theories is today.FEATURED GUEST:Author and Anti-Racism Specialist David Dalgleish, Director, PHULL Ltd. joins us from London England to discuss this long waited piece of knowledge and understanding.

Regardless of whether it is a fire, flood, earthquake, oil spill, etc. Americans will rally to help others. Our challenge is to find the motivation to act before there is tragedy. With the recent oil spills and other catastrophic events occurring across different environs, The River Network’s mission is to empower and unite people and communities to protect and restore rivers and other waters that sustain the health of our country. Founded in 1988, they are leading a national watershed protection movement that includes nearly 5,000 state, regional and local grassroots organizations. The River Network envisions a future when every person knows their watershed and is an active caretaker of their local, river, lake, stream or bay. We work for a day when all people have access to clean plentiful water. Making this vision a reality hinges on River Network’s thousands of national, state, and local partners working together to meet four goals: 1. A vibrant grassroots movement of citizens, organizations and decision-makers has the capacity to protect the long-term health of rivers and communities 2. Clean, flowing rivers support rich habitat both for a diversity of fish, birds and wildlife both in the water and on the land. 3. Healthy river systems free of pollution provide clean water for everyone to sustain our health, ensure enjoyment of rivers, and stop environmental injustice. 4. Impacts of climate change are reduced and river health improved by more effective and efficient use of water and energy.

In honor of Older Adults month we wanted to take a moment to honor those who are considered “Older Adults”. According to the U.S. Administration on Aging the first of 78 million baby boomers (people born between 1946 and 1964) will start transitioning into retirement in 2011, kicking off a senior population boom that will continue for decades. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that one out of every nine baby boomers will live to at least age 90. GUESTS: “OPALs (Older People with Active Lifestyles) was established to encourage people aged 45-50 and older to take full advantage of the amazing resilience of our bodies and challenge ourselves to increase our level of vitality and not settle for the notion that ageing automatically results in frailty. My point is…no matter your age, your current state of health and wellness can always be improved. We are normal people with normal jobs or retired who want to enjoy a high quality of life and have fun doing so...we have earned it! We come from all walks of life. And, whether we want to admit our age or not, it is truly a blessing to get older. How gracefully we do it has a lot to do with the lifestyle choices we make.”Carolyn Hartfield. “In a nation that places great emphasis on youth, my goal is directed toward helping people to understand the life cycle and explain in a light hearted way the expectations, experiences, myths, and truths of growing older. Because I have had exposure to the medical field for many years, caring for my daughter at a very young age and my parents who were older, I became concerned that many medical providers do not give attention or information to caregivers. Working with challenged adults and teens gave me the same feeling and I have set about informing families about the challenges they face on the topic of growing older in our society.” –Bess-Mae Jones 01:30:00Elevate The Soulnoolder adults,aging,health,life,graceEach second we each grow older.

"But Sandra... we're in a credit crunch!" "Hey, Sandra... what's this folding stuff in my pocket?" "So, Sandra... can I forget about that $25 I owe you?" Yes, when Sandra Hurst told us that money doesn't exist, we honestly thought that she was crazy. But when she finished explaining, it's clear that she has a better grip of the TRUE concept of money than, maybe, 90% of people around, even those on Wall Street. After all, they didn't see the credit crunch coming, did they? But guess who did? Our FEATURED GUEST is Sandra Hurst from the UK. Sandra is an international speaker, presenter and author on financial and economic matters especially in relation to how people of AfriKan descent are and continue to be affected by the system of global white supremacy (GWS). Sandra has developed her expertise in financial and economic matters from her experience of running a number of businesses over the past twenty years. Her constant search for personal growth and cultural awareness has contributed to her extensive knowledge base that she shares through all forms of media, one to one consultancy, seminars and workshops.

The five areas of wealth on which she concentrates are, financial, intellectual wealth, interpersonal wealth, physical wealth and spiritual wealth with the clear purpose of creating balance and peace in her life and the lives of those with whom she interacts.

My Spirit quickens as I think of the number of people who are totally dependent upon commercial 'news' designed to mislead, promote complacency, etc. and who have bought in to the notion of giving up and not caring. They just don't know what we know. Struggle is as much a part of the process as it is to a butterfly or an ostrich egg. Several other radio show hosts have shared that they would be popping in. This is not the satirical Kum ba yah but one where we as Yah to come by. Join us and hear what other things are going on. It doesn't remove the negatives...just lets you know that there is a lot more positive that can be conveyed that is not being shared. I have listened to several online radio shows and respect what many of them communicate through the airwaves as they inform, edify, respect, transform the in-divi-dual and honor the Creator and the Created. As you know, there is no abundance of "positive" information being broadcast through the traditional, commercial airways for the most part. Many hunger for a positive focus from the daily diet of pessimism and fear. Many desire to accentuate the positive. A stronger family is united and stands the ground of purpose - walking the journey and experience of life that we may learn to love our Creator, Our Selves and Our Neighbors.

We have choices on how we respond and often times it is an emotional one that many times further fuels the anger leading to further tragedy. Is there an answer and where shall we begin? Feature Guest: Tod M. Ewing, Author of “Seeing Heaven in the Face of Black Men” joins us and shares what Emotionally Impossible But Spiritually Possible means and the implications for these strategies. Ewing communicates in his book a unique look at the day-to-day realities that must be faced before America can become “post racial.” Focusing on the Black/White divide, it calls for a profound and dramatic transformation of consciousness on the part of both groups. It challenges them (and all of us) to examine what it calls “the practicality of spirituality” as the vehicle for such transformation.” Truth lies deeply embedded in everything. The decision is whether we choose from our lower selves producing unenlightened responses or from our higher, more nobler selves producing enlightened responses. One thing that we do believe is that, the one thing we have control over is our response to what takes place or happens to and around us. Ewing believes that success grounded in an emotional response is the path of futility. What role does practical spirituality play and how do we begin?

We define food deserts as communities where residents are in closer proximity to a “fringe” location such as a liquor store, carry out, or corner store, than they are a food retailer that sells fresh produce or whole foods. We are working to respond to this food crisis through providing nutritional and political education, hosting urban gardening, and establishing relationships with local African farmers. Heal Our Hood is promoting urban gardening and building relationships with local farmers as a means to respond to the little discussed health crisis of food deserts in Washington, D.C. “We have community gardens in Wards 7 and 8, both areas with the highest morbidity and mortality rates in the city.

The answer was a resounding no! What we find is that humanity continues to vibrate from its’ animal nature (Survival Beings) ruled by the body and senses as opposed to the reason and divinity that resides within each. Something greater than all of us holds all of us together and it just might be that “something” that will be necessary to bring us out from the motivators of war, greed, hatred, selfishness and destruction. We must put aside our petty differences and transform this world through love, freedom, justice and peace. I decided to not buy into the stereotyping and blaming and instead see for myself what the responses are from political candidates. The show will be live from the Frederick Douglass Foundation’s Leadership Summit http://www.frederickdouglassfoundation.com where a number of Republican candidates seeking office will be in attendance. Democracy in name only is a joke. All forms of government of human beings have been tried on this earth, except—a real democracy – of the people, for the people, by the people. A few voices cannot continue to dictate the quality of our lives. Whatever you may think, what we see on the Hill is a direct reflection of who we are. This will not change until we understand the democracy of self-government. I can’t justify war, murder, destruction, or any other tool being used to suppress people, lord over people or to victimize people. Join us and weigh in. Many of you voted to get exactly what we have in the offices now. It is your responsibility to hold them accountable as you stop playing armchair politics and become engaged as a citizen in the plan for “real democracy” under a constitution that says that we were all created equal and have a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. 01:30:00Elevate The Soulnorepublican,politics,bickering,justice,libertyTwo weeks ago we aired, "Can Slander and Tactics of Character Assassination Move the Political Agenda Forward" (www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul or visithttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/03/11/songs-of-a-father-letters-to-my-childrenSpiritualityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/03/11/songs-of-a-father-letters-to-my-children/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2010/03/11/songs-of-a-father-letters-to-my-childrenThu, 11 Mar 2010 23:00:00 GMT"Songs of A Father: Letters to My Children"It has been stated in some of the evolving and revealing religions that we should love even as a father would love his child. The example to our children if they are to learn love and the formation of our children and their moral and spiritual development, growth and ascension depends mightily on each of us. This begs the questions, "what must we do when the child was not exposed to models of love or who is not conscious of the love that embraces him or her?" How do we link to our feminine nature to ensure balance to the tasks that lie ahead?

Inviting spirit into your life awakens the conscious connection between you – your soul – and the material world you navigate through day by day. Some have looked into the magnificence of creation from its shores to its mountaintops, from the amoeba to the human being, from photosynthesis to cellular regeneration. Magnificence is difficult to put into any other containers than those we witness each day. The glory of the Creator’s hand is evident in each and everything that we see. Let’s talk about them from the perspective of two seekers who look into the face of the Creator in a different way through nature. In a time when many said that people of color don’t appreciate the environment as do their white counterparts, hear from a couple who have made it a part of their life journey, hiking, seeing, listening, communing, experiencing nature as they connect and reconnect with their true essence…the same love and energy that resides within each of us.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Rugged individualism simply does not cut it! You get yours and I got mine is severely demeaning and builds hopelessness. We are living in a time folk when we need to bring back the village of the day. A village where we knew one another, connected to one another, borrowed a cup of sugar from one another, respected and looked out for one another. More of us need others than we need to be alone. How do we renew the relationships and connections to one another and the resources within our communities? What is social capital? What is the importance of building social capital? A major part of our current challenge is that we have broken the connections we have had with one another. It’s time to get it all back on the radar screen – time to tune in. When I understand my connection to all things and the source energy (God, Chi, Light, Truth, etc.) that dwells within me, I can begin to remove my attachment to the things outside myself thus reducing my need to protect them or the fear of losing them or for that matter – the desire or hope to share them. Once we begin to better align ourselves from within we are better able to interface (show up) with others. The interface provides a measure of confidence and understanding to create dialogue. Dialogue provides opportunity for clarity and appreciation of one another’s talents and gifts and a strong sense of the wounds experienced and those that are inflicted. Retaliation and revenge are no longer needed as they play out through capitalism as it thrives, creates and recreates scarcity and fear at the expense of another. --- Can we all just get along.

Woods, aka Dawn Wolf on what is known as Christmas Eve and knew that it would serve as the beginning of our shows for 2010. Paraphrasing some of what he said, “Suffering deep assaults into their souls, becoming predators and conquerors preoccupied with staggering fear, producing resistance – unable to rest and relax and sit in the divine quality of the soul – and thus passing that on to future generations.” C.S. Lewis said, “You don’t have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.” We have allowed that which is material and that which is spiritual in and among ourselves to become entangled to the extent that we can no longer distinguish between that which is unseen and that which is seen or source energy. The evidence is manifested in the quality and lack thereof of life for all, the lack of justice, and the internalized tragedy weighing us down. How do we bring back the soulfulness? Join us as we begin this year with reflecting upon who we are and not what we have been defined to be. Featured Guest: Gregory E. Woods is a Keeper of Stories.

They are indispensable resources and benefits, essential for human survival and economic activity, provided by the ecosystem. An ecosystem is a self-sustaining community comprised of interdependent organisms (plants, insects, animals) and their natural environment. It provides the food chain through which energy flows, and the biological cycles that recycle essential nutrients and wastes. Natural capital is commonly divided into (1) renewable resources (agricultural crops, vegetation, wild life) and (2) non-renewable resources (fossil fuels and mineral deposits). Land ownership is a vital asset to all communities. Within the last century, African-American land ownership has rapidly declined. Comparing the U.S. Agriculture Census data on African-American farmland ownership for 1910 and 1997, it shows a drastic decline from its peak of 15 million acres in 1910 to 2.4 million acres in 1997. The 1999 Agricultural Economics and Land Ownership Survey, which assessed private rural landownership across race and use (i.e. farming, forestry, etc.), found that there are currently 68,000 African-American rural landowners and they own a total of approximately 7.7 million acres of land, less than 1% of all privately owned rural land in the United States.

We began with a discussion on capitalism, WIIFM – What’s In It For Me, spiritual, cultural and financial capital. This week’s show begins the conversation about the significance of human capital. I’ve heard it stated that more than 60% of the people are working jobs that are not a fit for them or jobs in which they dislike. While time-life is still consumed, and in a day and age where the average worker, once they begin their career track, is projected to change careers more than five times over the course of his or her working life, in an increasingly competitive marketplace where employers are fighting over an ever-decreasing workforce, and in an economic environment of mass lay-offs, downsizing, organizational mergers, and outsourcing—where employees seemingly have little reason to feel a sense of security in their job, it is imperative to take a look at human capital. Simply stated, human capital means people. The more experience, their knowledge base will increase, as will their endowment of human capital. Education, training, and health are the most important investments in human capital. That is because they raise earnings, improve health, or add to a person’s good habits over much of his lifetime. One aim is to keep more of us out of the industrialized prison complex system that will make use of your labor as their human capital.What is necessary? What skills and attitudes are important? How will we invest in ourselves and how can it be linked internally to our calling? Have we thought of our purpose, passion, gifts, and talents and how they might fit our calling. What will we invoke?

The premise was that if the only capital you value is financial…then you are already broke (segmented). The discussion really began when I further examined the state of poverty in the United States after we declared war on it during the late 60s. The lack of mention in either candidate’s position during their campaign speeches didn’t help matters much either. We began by discussing a framework of capitalism and then began to discuss spiritual capital, cultural and financial. Over the coming shows we will explore human, environmental, physical, political and social capital. There is so much to be thankful for and in light of the holidays coming up we thought we would dedicate this show to what we are thankful for. We certainly are thankful that we can do a show. We began in March and have begun to add friends, over 2,600 people have checked out the profile and over 1,400 have listened to the shows. We are thankful for our friend’s shows and encourage you to check them out as well. We are most thankful that we have yet another opportunity to add to the quality of transformation of our human experience. So join us, Emilio and my Co-Host Ty Gray-EL. Share with us what Thanksgiving means to you.

What we call money is only a medium of exchange for goods and services. It replaced barter systems of old because it became impractical to carry around exchangeable goods such as clothes, livestock, etc. Credit card companies have begun to penalize consumers for paying their balance off too early. Banks and gun manufacturers made the most gain in profit. Fear is associated with your money including but not limited to the lack of it, what it is, how to manage it, how to keep it, invest it or use it. As a medium of exchange, money has become a major social control mechanism. Halloween is touted as being the 6th leading financial generating holiday in America. Black Friday begins the day after Thanksgiving when the ridiculous spending begins. The entire economy will be based on the amount you spend for gifts this Christmas. Folk have become so caught up in the things that money buys that they measure their lives and success by the amount they have. Hello, folk! Wake up and let’s examine this one. What is the impact to the soul? What about debt slavery? Are there tips to know as they relate to balancing a checkbook, reducing mortgage, wealth, savings that will help us. Join us as we examine the impact of financial capital on our bodies, our soul and ultimately – our world. Sandra Hurst states, “Five major definitions of wealth combine to form our subconscious attitudes and reactions to money (financial, intellectual, interpersonal, physical and spiritual) and that all are important for excellence and prosperity.”- Check out the fool article http://www.hh-bb.com Featured Guest: Brian Riley, President and CEO of Synergy Financial Services located in Silver Spring, Maryland.

As we continue the Building Capital From the Inside Out Series, pick up from last week's show highlighting deformations of racism and how race has been used to create a culture of fear. This internalized oppression takes us further away from our own internal guidance system-our very souls. Egos war with others who are different and we become the very thing we wanted to change - bigoted oppressors who want to get even. Understanding origin should never be used to oppress others as you have been oppressed. When we respond from the shadows we further segment our life and become further disconnected from our inner Self - our own guidance systems. Have we been bamboozled or is it time to lift your head and let your light shine - your true Hue-Man? GUEST: David Dalgleish was born and raised in Manchester, England; and currently lives in London, England. He has worked as a local government officer, policy development officer, and civil servant. Since 2002 he worked on a number of youth empowerment programs, which led to the development of a consultancy designed to make a positive contribution to the future, and provide solutions for problems of the past and present. He has facilitated programs with young people and adults from several countries, and has been interviewed for media productions, organized public events, participated in residential programs, presented at international conferences, and acted as an advisor to voluntary organizations and youth service providers. Much of his creative consultancy work has focused on tackling racism, media awareness, cultural capital, and social justice.

It is within that vibration that a culture is developed, defined, projected and subjected. As long as we live in the natural world we cannot simply stay on the mountaintop and see – we must also come into the valley and be. Tonight we begin to explore aspects of cultural capital and how it plays out in our experiences and community life. The deformations of racism have created a culture of fear. This social construct as well as all other fears of the ‘other’ cause many to feel miserable, marginalized and they begin to internalize the inferiority or perpetuate it and that causes walls of greater separation. Some of you may call it, internalized oppression while others allow themselves to be clothed in a culture of external oppression designed to take you further away from your own internal guidance system – your very soul. It is time to stop wallowing in the pain and hurt that comes from the fear and feelings of inadequacy. My oppression is not any less or greater than yours. Join us and add to the dialogue begin to know, forgive and let go.

We must begin to build from the inside out. Join us as we begin an eight part series on building capital starting at the spiritual core. We begin where we began. Join us and allow your soul to consciously comprehend the unique inner and outer aspects of your being and the alignment needed to fuel your passions. FEATURED GUEST: Shannette Slaughter is the author of a new book called Just Cause I: Moving from a mundane existence into Deliberate Wholeness. Learning how to connect to the Macro cycles of life so that we can begin to affect the changes that occur rather than being affected and feeling powerless. The Journey within soul, reminds us that our passion is our unrealized potential beckoning to be expressed. When we are organized and deliberate, we express our passion in a loving and righteous way. When we are unorganized and underdeveloped, our passion gets suppressed and we “act out” rather than “create.” Just Cause is the manual that moves each of us to understand our connection to humanity without ignoring our struggle and contribution as a people. “In spite of our potential we remain on the peripheral of all society. Our enslavement, colonialism and imperialism has blocked our view and made us short sited. We must move from the passenger seat of our lives into the driver’s seat. There is no better day than today-now. We have everything we need to do what ever we need to do. The work now is getting rid on those things that no longer serve us or humanity as a whole.” 01:00:00Elevate The Soulnosoul,segmentation,causation,alignment,awakenChallenging Our Own Segmentation Are you enjoying the expansion of your desires…”and you shall have dominion over all things…”yet do you have dominion of youhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2009/10/01/WIIFM--Whats-In-It-For-MeCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2009/10/01/WIIFM--Whats-In-It-For-Me/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/elevate-the-soul/2009/10/01/WIIFM--Whats-In-It-For-MeThu, 01 Oct 2009 22:00:00 GMTW.I.I.F.M.? - What's In It For MeWe can dedicate ourselves to defining and redefining the problem, focusing only on the negative, or commit ourselves to collective action to address the spiritual and societal ills that many of us share in common on a day-to-day basis. When making any journey it is clearly important to have an idea of your destination, where you have been and the terrain that you have traveled and that you must travel in the future. Are you looking for answers to these 21st century questions and receive concrete, humane solutions? How do we restore our values the sense of good will? How do we recapture our sense of community, responsibility and restore our village mentality? Why are we only temporarily incensed at different forms of injustice and how do we remove our apathy and complacency and become proactive with respect to our own wellbeing? If you feel that we are being led down paths of destruction, and how do we get off the paths that are wide to destruction? How do we identify the glory and the shame that has been misplaced with respect to how we feel and how we relate to one another? Is property more valuable than human life? How do we acknowledge the value of other things beyond the dollar bill and what it can buy? At the end of the day how do we feel good about ourselves? How do we find happiness or peace in the midst of all the turmoil and life? How can I get help form me? What’s in it for me? Join us as we provide insight, understanding and solutions as we map the village’s future progress. Validate your productive and constructive values base. Reenergize!

We simply think that a better quality of knowing produces a better quality of me and you. We have had the honor and privilege over the past 22 shows of conveying and communicating from inside out. We began with the soul and have attempted to focus on family, environment, creativity, literacy, health, critical thinking, youth, culture, volunteerism, community sustainability, racism, capitalism, rap and others and come back to where we began. What are our next steps? How do we continue to support those who do care for equity, justice, and quality of life? How do we convey to those who sit on the couch and simply want to complain without seeing the impact on the whole? Our show this week addresses the question: why the apathy, disengagement, lacks of courage and excitement to bring change. If a person wants to become involved through charity, volunteering or activism, what are the steps? Is there a formula for change and how do you encourage others to become actively involved in their own survival. How does one become a better activist? One of our guests tonight will be the folk at TIA’s Way as we highlight their progress and a major upcoming event. Their choice was to get off of the couch and into the community educating as many as they can on the number of women who will die this year as a result of cervical cancer.

Folk, you don't want to armchair this one! The health industry and it's $500 Billion profits have vested interest in keeping you confused causing fear and many people missing the point as the public is held hostage. It has been reported that over the last 2 years that 1 in 3 did not have health insurance. They feared giving up their homes or their children's education. 14,000 Americans are losing health care benefits a month. Eliminate waste, bring competition into the system, health care reform, security, stability and innuendo that you might be fined if you don't buy health care. They say that agreement has been reached on over 80% of the bill. Oh, don't forget about pre-existing conditions (profit, capitalism, profit, social, economic and political disintegration, prescription costs, profit, alleged death squads or the notion, and profit). We are paying more attention to kidnappings, movie stars, reality t.v., the Beatles, new IPods coming out, while unemployment continues to rise, homes are lost and we operate under the illusion of promoting domestic tranquility. Hello, join us and weigh in. The implications of H1N1 aka Swine Flu will place even more demands on a hurt and broken system. Hurt and broken because of the outrageous number of Americans living in what was once the richest country on the earth, cannot take care of ALL of its citizens when they need it. We will pay for this on the front or the back end. Please know, regardless of how you vote, illness and disease don't stop at dividing lines between red and blue states.

Bill O’Reilly was adamant in his conversations with Dr. Mark Lamont Hill that the problem was strictly behavioral problems among African American men, while Dr. Mark Lamont Hill attempted to weigh in on problems within the system as it relates to African American men. Noted artist, poet and historian Ty Gray-El brings a sense of order, clarification and offers something that really needs reflection, investigation and dialogue. Ty will emphatically let you know that he does not believe that the high numbers of children fatherless is no mere coincidence. Is it an issue of responsibility? Systemic oppression? Genetic predisposition? Poverty? What is it? Does that mean that women are not honored for the roles they take as head of household? What are the implications? Where do we go from here?

This writer suggests that in order to be more effective and help humanity sustain and strengthen ‘community’, we must begin with a better understanding of wealth, money, capitalism and how it impacts everything else to imply and demand that the only ‘real’ capital that is of any significance - is financial capital.

Resource Recommendation: You might want to check out “Money Doesn’t Exist” by Sandra Hurst, http://www.hh-bb.com/ebooks.html and “G-Vision” by Twilight Bey on the same site. There is also a unique perspective on cultural capital by Paul Obinna http://www.hh-bb.com/timeline.html. A depression develops when overproduction, decreased demand, or a combination of both factors forces curtailment of production, dismissal of employees, and wage cuts. Unemployment and lowered wages further decrease purchasing power, causing the crisis to spread and become more acute. Recovery is generally slow, the return of business confidence being dependent on the development of new markets, exhaustion of the existing stock of goods, or, in some cases, remedial action by governments.

We began a discussion on Building Community Capital and Sustaining The Quality of Life during our last broadcast show. The response was tremendous with many not understanding capitalism and/or how it works. In order to build upon our listeners' understanding of how every other aspect of human life is defined in the form of some type of capital we must begin with a better understanding of capitalism and how it has impacted all else to imply and demand that the only capital that is of significance is financial capital. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle or is it... REJECT - REPAIR - REPLACE??? If we are not careful, as we help others to set up micro-enterprises, which is a critical component, and not help them see the connections and understand how wealth and poverty work to drive the class disparities, we have made a gross error and have instead simply parroted the approaches without clear foundational understanding or the navigational tools necessary to survive in a tiered class system. Communism, feudalism, mercantilism, capitalism, imperialism, colonialism and other aspects will be discussed on this show and my guess is that it will be followed with another session rounding out the discussion.

This is all of our work and the dialogue cannot stop at one presidential panel or one awareness course. Whites Overcoming Racism through Knowledge (A Facebook Group) states - “White people who recognize that building a racially inclusive and equal society is our WORK to accomplish, that we cannot do this through talk alone, and that white people cannot merely be "allies" in the fight to end racism, we must also take up leadership.” What is happening in DC in response to the allegations of racism among D.C.

That is a common question verbalized among many of us. Everyone loves a good story. Educator Vivian Gussey Paley pointed out, "story is the essential culture builder in any society or group or classroom...it is the way our minds work." Paraphrasing Joseph Campbell, "you are doomed to become what you cannot imagine." Virtually all-traditional stories deal with conflict in one form or another. Whether they are between nations, cultures, friends, siblings, parents & children or others, the stories contain deep truths about the need to resolve conflict in constructive, nonviolent ways. We talk about it taking a village to raise a child but what happens when the village loses its imagination? What happens when its' only source of information is coming through the bought and paid for media spinning it Rapunzel spinning straw into gold. We realize that basketball will be available for summer youth while jobs will be challenging to find. Every young person does not play afternoon or midnight basketball, is not interested in boxing, and do want something better to do than simply hang out on the street. How can we use the power of story to open the imagination of our folk? Creation does not begin with Facebook nor does it end in MySpace. What about our artists, painters, writers, chess players, debaters, cyclists, gardeners, cooks, musicians, those with environmental pursuits, and others? How do we spark their imagination?

Today, the ethic remains strong, as across our nation Americans of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities are donating their time and talents to schools, churches, hospitals, and local nonprofits in an effort to improve their communities and serve a purpose greater than themselves. They are beautifying schools and neighborhoods, building homes, cleaning up after disasters, mentoring students, donating professional services, coaching youth sports teams, holding benefit fundraisers, and much, much more. These actions are critically important because volunteering today is a necessary aspect of meeting many of the needs facing our nation. The desire to serve extends across generations and in every part of our country. Since the Corporation’s inception: o More than 1 billion volunteer service hours have been generated by Senior Corps volunteers; o More than 400,000 individuals have served through AmeriCorps o And, more than 1 million high school students participate annually in service-learning initiatives funded by Learn and Serve America Our Guest: Derek Douglas is a long term volunteer in his community of Jellico, TN. Beginning as a fellow sponsored by Highlander Center, Douglas has served with a number of groups in the Appalachian region focusing on land use, conservation and social justice. He is currently an Office of Surface Mining VISTA with the Appalachian Coal Country Watershed Team. He has been working to help recognize more diversity in the watershed protection field and in his home town of Jellico. Whether it is meeting at Indian Mt.

Recently the news reported that Washington, DC has an HIV/AIDS rate higher than West Africa. Diabetes and prostate cancer are two additional killers. I don't want to hear the doctor say, "Sir if you would have come in 6 months ago, we would have been able to do something about that." Our featured guests tonight are representatives from The African American Health Program (AAHP) - http://www.onehealthylife.org/ - was created and funded in 1999 by the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The mission of AAHP is to eliminate health disparities and improve the number and quality of years of life for African Americans and people of African descent in Montgomery County. The program focuses on six major areas which include infant mortality, HIV/AIDS, diabetes, oral health, cardiovascular disease and specific cancers. Included in the services are outreach, health education, support groups and nurse case management services. While the program's offerings are available to all interested residents, the focus audience is the African American/Black residents of the county. The program is staffed by Registered Nurses, Health Educators and Community Outreach Workers.

We meet many people along our journey on this earth but most times don’t take or make the time to communicate. Hank reflects upon the catalyst that got him started and wonders how many others have been overlooked and have not been able to make their contributions and in turn receive from others. What stops us from maximizing the talents we have been given? Is it timing, doubt, fear, lack of confidence or opportunity. What ever, we know that dreams as a result may never be realized. This week’s show opens up and facilitates the creative juices. Join us as we encourage one another beyond the wounds and into creative expression.

Are we part of something bigger than ourselves or is that we have power over it all? If you are still you will be better able to hear the answer. Based upon the answer to these questions does that provide insight into the disconnection we have with and among ourselves and with one another? Are humans captives of a 'civilizational' system that more or less compels them to go on destroying the work in order to live? If you can’t discover what’s keeping you in, the will to get out soon becomes confused and ineffectual. If you can’t find the bars how will you ever be free or escape? What role do animals play and can animals help bring our souls back in line with being completely connected?

Grandmothers are much younger these days but continue to have a major impact in the development of our youth. Share and listen to stories that have shaped us from the beginning. Jan Spencer performed as a jazz vocalist in numerous venues in and around her Detroit home, including the Montreaux Jazz Festival. She has also performed on national and international stages, television, and with such greats as Aretha Franklin, Lou Rawls, Najee, Roy Ayers, Tony Bennett, Kris Kristofferson, Bonnie Raitt and Stevie Wonder, to name a few. Since her arrival in the Low Country, Spencer has maintained an active performance schedule, appearing in festivals such as the “Let’s Share” festival in Columbia, local and regional clubs, concerts, and television, and establishing a reputation as a world-class jazz vocalist. She has also worked as a resident artist in Beaufort and Charleston County schools, developing innovative, arts-based, educational programs for both children and adults. In June of 2004 the Arts Council of Beaufort County sponsored the debut performance and CD release party for her CD, “Tribute”. In May of 2005, The Beaufort County Black Chamber of Commerce sponsored the debut of Ms. Spencer’s one-woman show, “Jazz with Jan Spencer”, featuring Spencer at the piano singing the music from her CD, “Tribute”. Fans describe her musical style as Bill Withers meets Roberta Flack or Cassandra Wilson meets Brenda Russell or Carly Simon meets Nancy Wilson. Yet, she is said to have her own, unique style...smooth & jazzy with a bit of sass, especially when she sings the blues! All of the songs on the “Tribute” CD were either written or arranged by Ms. Spencer and feature the work of some of the South Carolina Low Country’s most talented musicians. 01:00:00Elevate The Soulnograndmothers,wisdom,guidance,stories,youthJan Spenser helps us rekindle memories and the wisdom given you by our grandmothers.

The reverberations from such striking failure will touch individual lives in ways both large and small for a long time to come. Somewhere a family won’t be able to stay in their home; a provider will be laid off; a new graduate won’t be able to find her first job; a municipality will cut critical services to at-risk populations; and a middle-aged couple may not be able to retire on schedule, or afford to send their child to college, or continue to support an ailing loved one. In a precarious environment such as this, many necessities and dreams will be deferred as personal and professional plans are rethought and reformulated. The familiar maps of the world may be obsolete now, and perhaps we are being called to reinvent many of the systems and institutions that governed our former way of life. Going SOULo asks a critical question - from what perspective shall we reinvent ourselves? Do we start from within the current MEFs and belief systems, or do we possibly begin at square-one, with a clean slate?
