"When the student is ready the Teacher will appear."

 

Three Women - SARK - Donna Eden - Catherine Ponder - A Healing Journey of Mind, Body, & Spirit. Three women who have changed my life by teaching me how to think in new ways, take actions that make me feel more confident, to heal the past, and instill hope for today. They can show you how to heal your life as well.

I wanted simple straight forward answers and I wanted them to transform my life. I wanted to know why I didn't feel like getting out of bed, why I kept picking partners who were not emotionally available, why I had attacks of unworthiness. I wondered why I couldn't let go of past hurts, why I would give up on goals and dreams that I was passionate about, right when it appeared I was so close to achieving them.

I was a student ready for a teacher who could make sense of my life and could heal the years of pain that had started to paralyze me.

What I found was release from the past, hope for the future, and passion for today. I found what is important to me and how to learn to manifest it in my life. I received moments of peace, followed by hours of peace of mind, and slowly this peace of mind became a consistent companion.

Those first moments of silence were terrifying! I had never experienced peace of mind before, so, at first the experience caused a state of panic.



I discovered that thoughts, emotions, and actions were interdependent, like gears working in the back of my mind, they guided me into every decision and every situation. I discovered that I had the capability to change my thoughts, balance my emotions, and take control of my choices and my actions.

I discovered my authentic self. That is how I am living my dreams today. I would like to share with you the three women I consider to be the most instrumental teachers in my transformation.

I would like to introduce you to SARK, Donna Eden, and Catherine Ponder. Three women who changed my life; Three women who can heal your life as well.

Transformation Soup by SARK 

Healing for the Splendidly imperfect.

Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy (SARK), has been an extraordinary teacher in the ways of self forgiveness, discovering my creative dreams, and transforming my life.

She has written many delightful books, is a motivational speaker, and has a website called Planet SARK



I first discovered Planet SARK through a forum of other fans on April 8, 2005. It was actually over a year before I actually read one of her books. I was learning about her, and her charismatic work, through the eyes of other people who had grown to love her.

The first book I read was 'Transformation Soup: Healing for the Splendidly Imperfect'. From page one I realized why so many lovely souls had found and honored her work. She taught me to dream, to believe in myself, to allow myself to dance, and to honor my journey. She taught me that it is ok to take naps, dance in the rain, explore my soul, and make my creative dreams a reality.

SARK is presenting workshops in the following locations: Be sure to attend these events and learn for yourself how splendid you truely are.

Internal Energy Within Us 

Energy Work

When I think about the term 'Energy Work', several concepts come to mind. One of them is the healing energy that results from practices such as reiki for example. I also think about the practice of Tai Chi. Many of my initial thoughts are about the energy that rests primarily on the internal plain. The energy of breathing, oxygenation and circulatory functions of the body, and how that opens up an ethereal energy within us, is a beginning point for any energy work journey. It is a balancing work.

These examples are vast and have intricate specialties that are practiced purposefully. Many, (if not all), of the concepts are ancient wisdom passed down for many centuries.

I use Tai Chi to balance the internal energy. I use Light and Color (through art and photography) to send out energy. I also use Energy Medicine Healing techniques by Donna Eden.

The Energy Medicine Kit by Donna Eden 



Simple, effective techniques to help you boost your vitality and feel better now.

The Energy Medicine Kit

Amazon Price: $19.77 (as of 10/10/2008)
List Price: $29.95
Used Price: $20.58

"Energy is all there is", you can learn to be healthier, have more vitality, and to be more in touch with your own body and soul. Anyone can learn to 'turn on that self healer within'. We can learn to rid our body of toxins, to handle stress, and to balance the energy in our bodies.

External Energy Manifested in Us 

"To understand everything is to forgive everything"

Balancing Work

Another perception that comes to mind is the external energy that is manifested by us. We may not realize how much energy we have to send out into the external plain, even when we do not feel energetic, we are still sending out energy all around us. We can focus that energy or allow it to freely wander about. In most of my experience, I have noticed a bit of both.

I have also experienced the external energy that can be absorbed and harbored. This kind of external energy has caused off balanced chemistry. It is the kind of energy experience that needed some delicate, healing attention.

Once we discover what is embedded within us, we learn to forgive. I remember spending much of my time trying to fight my feelings when they were angry or bitter. I would push them down, hide them with 'cheerful' expressions, and 'say something nice'. I had been taught that if you can not say something nice, do not say anything at all. I wasn't feeling nice, and didn't have anything authentically nice to say about anything. I was in pain, and couldn't forgive anything that had happened in my past.

Learning to understand, release, and forgive created room in my life for joy and gratitude.By working toward understanding, I began to release and forgive everything. That allowed what was truly 'me' to emerge.



It turns out that I do have nice things to say. I am full of joy and gratitude, but, it was covered up by the very things that I thought were helping me. I needed to uncover, discover, and recover from chronic emotional pain.

Every 'thing', I discovered, was an essence of external energy that had manifested itself within me, due to my own interpretation of the 'shoulds' I allowed to guide me.

Ultimately my mistaken beliefs were at the root of all my pain and years of unhappiness.

Reading to Feed Your Spirit 

"Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace."

Words are another vehicle for energy work. Spoken or written words can carry energy balancing magic with them. A book club group is one example of how the collective energy works together using the written word to share energy balancing.

Thoughts are words that generate energy. I like the saying "Thoughts Become Things - Choose The Good Ones" Mike Dooley - TUT.COM

Open Your Mind to Receive by Catherine Ponder 

So far we have explored energy in body and emotion. Now, we will explore the powerful energies at work in the mind and spirit.


The forgiving state of mind is a magnetic power for attracting good.

Open Your Mind to Receive

Amazon Price: (as of 10/10/2008)
List Price: $11.95
Used Price: $0.09

Dynamic healing truth that will heal your soul as you discover how to release anything that blocks you from receiving your highest good. Spiritually healing, this practical approach to living addresses mistaken beliefs that hold us back from knowing our potential and accepting our highest good.

Audio & Visual Energy Connections 

"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."

Focused External Energy Work

One of the ways that I focus external energy work is by creating artwork, photography, and other visual creations. This kind of energy uses light, color, hues, and contrast to communicate. The viewer can connect with different parts of the energy in the work and for some each time the work is viewed more of the energy is perceived.

The creator can use the work to 'concentrate the mind on the present moment'. This practice can be applied to creating art, cooking an omelet, baking cookies, or planting flower seeds. Whatever action is taken becomes an instrument of connection to energy.

Feed Your Soul With Music

Another vehicle of energy is music. Find the kind of music energy that 'feeds the soul', stimulates you to sing along, or simply makes you feel energized. When you receive the result that you desire, (relaxation, energizing, or anything in between), you know that the work has balanced your own energy.

GypsyOwl's Art Showcase Video - Result of Transformation 

Catherine helped me to discover and change mistaken beliefs that resulted from misinterpretation of the laws of the universe.



Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy (SARK), helped me to heal the past, discover and implement what she calls 'micro movements' toward living my dream.



Donna helped me to fully open myself to the joyful flow of energy. Allowing me to be authentic and living each moment in joy.



Because of the Transformative Experiences I have had because of these three women, I am able to present to you a showcase of examples of my work.

This work brings me joy and I hope that it will bring you joy as well.

About Me

I am an artist. My artwork and photo art can be seen on my lens GypsyOwl's CafePress Showcase Artwork , photography, and photo art designs have been created at the following galleries. GypsyOwl's Studio & Gifts - CafePress And GypsyOwl's Gallery - Zazzle My Photography is also available through 123RF - Royalty Free Photos

I am the founder of a networking community for small business, I manage multiple online forums, networking sites, and I am creating website content as well as graphic design. Visit my lens GypsyOwl Organization Small Business Network to learn more about the SBN.

My past work is primarily in The Mental Health related field. I worked as a para-professional Therapist Technician Team Leader in a Residential Crisis Stabilization Unit. Funding changes in the industry left me and most of the para-professional direct care providers without jobs. I have spent my working life in fields that allowed me to learn a lot about a variety of topics. I have been a house manager in a domestic violence shelter, a second hand shop manager (for charity services that provided shelter to the homeless), and a variety of experiences both for pay and volunteer.

I have worked with children and adults in a variety of settings (educational, recreational, health & wellness, and spiritual growth). I am enrolled in the Jones International University BBA Degree program - Marketing Management, Global Marketing Stategies, and E-Commerce are my focus. I am an adult student preparing myself for a career change. I have completed 3/4 of the requirements for graduation.

Each step of the way I find my interests expanding. It is clear that my new knowledge and skills will benefit any area I set my mind to. I am a member of The SARK International Creative Dream Team. I am a daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, and friend. I enjoy music, gardening and reading. I am enthusiastic about everything that I do and every day is an opportunity to learn. I mentor women in various transitional living communities. This volunteer activity has been extraordinarily rewarding for me.

But For The Grace Of God There Go I

I believe that one of the most interesting things about me is that I have found myself being a volunteer liaison in every job or volunteer position I have been in throughout my life. Support in life seems to come from so many different areas of interest. People who have similar ideas, talents, professions, families, backgrounds, experiences, challenges and other points of commonality find enrichment in their lives by connecting with one another. Perhaps I am evolving through this kind of work because I find such satisfaction in watching people have those "I am not alone in this" moments. No matter what the challenges in life, there are people who are going through, or have gone through similar things, and connecting them can manifest great sources of growth and insight.
