Join us on a Platinum Pearls® Adventure - 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.
"Spirit
of the Stones" in the Sedona, Arizona
area and the Hopi Indian Reservation features small, four day
group retreats that offer an intense setting for personal
shifts. Available energies are magnified within the shared
focus. You have opportunities for learning from each other's
experiences, for integrating the experiences with your dreams,
meditation insights and feelings that come up over the course of
the four days. You are encouraged to develop awareness practices
to carry back into the rest of your life.
"Painting
Word Pictures" focuses on writing
creatively. Strong sensory images make your writing or lyrics
sparkle! Learn how to paint pictures with your words by tapping
into an endless well of creative imagery. The purpose of this
workshop is to help you find the wellspring of “sensory memory”
inside you, to learn to turn it on at will, and to help you
direct that flow of creative energy into stronger, more
effective writing … writing filled with images that allow your
words to say more, connect better emotionally with the readers
or listeners. Whatever your writing goals, you will come away
from this workshop with new tools to work with, a new way of
approaching the creative process.
You are encouraged to browse each of the many featured
workshops
at
http://www.platinumpearls.com/, find one that fits you, and
then dive into the pool! The rest of your life just started.
Make the best of it.

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.
