Spirituality

Join us on a Platinum Pearls® Spiritual - Discovery Retreat or Workshop!

Designed to both "get away from things" and "get into things", the workshops, adventures and retreats presented or recommended by Platinum Pearls® represent a wide range of topics, settings and experiences.

For example, our "Discovery Weekend" is designed as two extremely laid-back days in a very small group, everyone learning, everyone teaching, personally accompanied by Tom Hays, the founder of Platinum Pearls®, where the important thing is fun, relaxation and expanded awareness of life's possibilities. Four sites have been selected for the coming year.

The Power of Self-Coaching: The Five Essential Steps to Creating the Life You Want

by Joseph J. Luciani (Author)

Nobody is born insecure, angry, bored, or depressed. The fact is, happiness is our natural state and, as psychologist Dr. Joseph J. Luciani explains in this warm, witty, and empowering guide, chronic unhappiness is just a bad habit–a habit that can be broken.

It’s much easier than you think! Based on Dr. Luciani’s twenty-five years of experience helping patients unlearn reflexive, destructive thinking, The Power of Self-Coaching arms you with all the tools you need to free yourself from your mental and emotional traps. As you work through the many self-quizzes, training and coaching exercises, and Power Drills, you’ll see yourself anew and feel yourself growing lighter, more spontaneous, and ready to take charge of your life.

A proven five-step program for reconnecting with the innate capacity for happiness, The Power of Self-Coaching gives you what you need to:

• Identify learned patterns of thought and feelings that are making you unhappy.

• Use Dr. Luciani’s celebrated Self-Talk techniques to develop new, healthy ways of thinking and feeling.

• Eliminate boredom, hopelessness, chronic fatigue, and emotional numbness from your life.

• Tap your full creative, intellectual, and emotional potential and live the rich, rewarding life you want and deserve.  Buy Book
