Facilitator: Cindi Richard, Shaman, Energy Healer, Life Coach "Mastering Your Power to Create"    This powerful concept is barley understood, yet it plays in our lives every day. The basis of the Universal Laws is this: you create your life, business, career and relationships through your thoughts, emotions, beliefs and actions.  How? Our thoughts, emotions and beliefs create a vibration within our energy field that attracts people and situations that are complimentary or similar. When we understand and utilize the laws of the Universe with focus and intent we are empowered to create lives that are exactly we want. When we do not utilize these laws with intention it seems we are dealing with one problem or illness after another.  Isn't it time to get off this merry-go-round and take control of our lives?

Learn the Universal Laws that play in our lives and how to master them in a way that brings fun, joy, wealth and health.  This interactive weekend will teach you the laws, how they work and tools to master the laws.
