THE THOUGHT EXCHANGE™ – Exploring Thought as Cause
a workshop with David Friedman

In this workshop, developed by David, we explore the notion that our lives and the situations we see before us are a reflection of our thoughts. So often we think that the reason we think or feel a certain way is because of what has happened to us in the world. Perhaps it is the other way around….. the world is simply a mirror that shows us exactly, accurately and always, what WE are thinking. Nobody would be foolish enough to look in a mirror and try to change the reflection there, and yet so often we struggle to change what’s in our world, when in fact a simple change of thought would immediately show up there.

In this intimate workshop, a small group sits in a circle and, on a voluntary basis (nobody has to speak) we look at situations in our lives, trace what thought might be underlying it, pick a new thought and see what happens in the intervening week. Each week, we’ll explore how simply taking on a new thought affects our lives. We leave the workshop knowing how to use this powerful technique to change what is appearing in our lives as easily as putting on a different outfit and seeing the immediate results in the mirror.

David Friedman is a composer/conductor/record producer from New York whose work includes many well-known songs of hope and healing, Musical Direction and Vocal Arranging for 5 Broadway shows and numerous Classic Disney Movies, (Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin, Pocahontas, Hunchback,) songs in films such as Lizzie McGuire and the upcoming Bambi sequel, recordings with artists such as Diana Ross, Barry Manilow, Petula Clark, and the late Nancy LaMott, and a wide range of coaching, teaching and leading workshops in the arts.

Sundays 9:30-10:15 am
Dynamics for Living  with Rev. Shawn

Dynamics for Living provides an easy reference to Charles Fillmore’s most influential teachings and combines three decades of writing in one book. It has been a reliable cornerstone for the spiritual growth of hundreds of thousands of people. These revelations he generously shared with all who studied in his classes or pondered over his writings. Prayer opened his human consciousness to the dynamics of Spirit. What is “new” about this book is the arrangement in which this compilation is offered; its purpose is to present the basic substance of Charles Fillmore’s writings in a manner that will invite an expanded study of what he taught. “I am now in the presence of pure Being and immersed in the Holy Spirit of life, love, and wisdom. I acknowledge Thy presence and power, O blessed Spirit. In Thy divine wisdom now erase my mortal limitations, and from Thy pure substance of love bring into manifestation my world, according to Thy perfect law.” Charles Fillmore

Taught for credit toward becoming a licensed Unity teacher.

HEALING  THURSDAYS

Experience the “Bars” + Reiki Exchange
with Gigi Benanti

Reiki Master & Bars Facilitator will offer each attendee a ‘Mini’ Bars session (participate in giving, if you have taken a “bars” class). The “Bars” is part of Access Consciousness, which is a set of tools and processes that are designed to facilitate more consciousness for everyone. There are 32 bars of energy that run through and around your head. They store the electromagnetic component of all the thoughts/ ideas. Simply put, the “Bars” is like reflexology on your head. All are also welcome to receive/share a short Reiki healing session. Reiki is a gentle energy healing technique helpful for stress reduction.
