I found mySelf the victim of a hit and run accident in early November, as I was out for a walk, one evening, with a friend. My left leg was fractured, requiring a bone graft, plate and screws and there was injury to my left knee and tail bone. Coming up to 3 months following the accident, I am glad to say that I am well and fully weight bearing – utilizing a cane to assist me, as needed – especially, when I am outside and walking on snow and ice. My healing and recovery, to date, have been excellent.

Come savour and experience the life-altering 5-day, open-forum, conversational WEL-Systems® intensive, Decloaking and Living Authentically from August 20 to 24, 2012, in beautiful Chelsea, Quebec. Easy to get to, from anywhere in Ottawa, and facilitated in a country setting, you’ll easily come home to your Self, one breath at a time. As you leave the paved highway of how you have always lived your life, you’ll turn onto a well-travelled, sound and welcoming dirt road – perfected by its imperfections – the organic route to new way of Being and Becoming. At the end of the road, you’ll cross over the tracks from your past into the potential of your future, knowing that you ARE finally home to your Self, in the present. Surrounded by forest, this natural, green space – with its infinity of light and dark, sound and silence, movement and stillness – is truly a metaphor for whom you can become, meaningfully and sustainably relaxed into your Self. You’ll know what it means to have shifted your paradigm for how you have lived your life, up until now. You’ll feel, hear and see your life differently; you’ll have a new context for who and what you are. And, you’ll know how to easily and magically sustain that shift, so that you continue to transform and evolve your life, simply for the sheer joy of it!

You’ll discover that, once and for all, you really do own the keys to transform the chaos of your personal identity – by your Self, for you Self – bringing new order and vitality to your life, inside, where you live. You’ll claim your innate genius and you’ll know, finally, that you are NOT crazy…  and that you never have been! You’ll come to know that you can stand alone – easily  and for your Self – realizing that you no longer need do it alone. With the surrounding forest, as metaphor, you’ll come to reclaim what it means to stand uniquely tall and strong and separate in an organic collective, yet never lost in or to that collective. You’ll discover that it really is as simple as breathe, BE your Self, and speak the truth of your experience.

This program is for:

• Women who are choosing to work with others in allopathic, complimentary/alternative, energy/spiritual fields. Attend, if you are a Coach, Shaman, Reiki Practioner, Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, NLP Practitioner, Cranio-Sacral Therapist, EFT Practitioner, SER Practioner, Huna Practitioner, Radionix Practioner, Homeopathic Practioner, Nurse, MD, ND, RMT, reflexologist, etc. Attend if you are a woman who is both passionate about helping others with your own respective gifts AND insatiably in search of the essence of whom you are, yet unknowing of where to look
• Women in the healing arts; you know your ‘work’ to be meaningful, yet your reality is that its engagement is not yet sustainable in practice re: your desired outcomes, finances and health/well being.
• Women who are feeling sick, fragile, brittle, burnt out, compromised.
• Women who find their own lives sandwiched by the needs of others and the obligation to care for them; others have become your responsibility.

More and more women are turning to engagement in the healing arts to become an unique expression of living their lives. What needs to be in place, such that what is meaningful is also sustainable? What happens when meaning lives, yet sustainability does not? What happens when life is sustainable, yet is without meaning? Join other women in the healing arts in Knowlton, Quebec on Monday, July 23, 2012 from 10 AM to 5 PM for a very different conversation about redefining ‘business’ for yourSelf, by yourSelf, in the good company of others. You’ll be delighted and amazed by the possibilities. It matters not that you are a seasoned player, new to the game, or in the process of considering ‘What’s next’ for your life. There is so much more for you to discover about… YOU! For women only, this one-day experience is evolutionary, inviting transformation of your life perspective and whom you hold yourSelf to be. You’ll leave the day with an expanded awareness that will move you beyond the limitations of what you have always believed to be true… an awareness that is magnetic for the more that you can become.

Who this experience is for:

1. Women who are choosing to work with others in allopathic, complimentary/alternative, energy/spiritual fields. Attend, if you are a Coach, Shaman, Reiki Practioner, Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, NLP Practitioner, Cranio-Sacral Therapist, EFT Practitioner, SER Practioner, Huna Practitioner, Radionix Practioner, Homeopathic Practioner, Nurse, MD, ND, RMT, reflexologist, etc. Attend if you are a woman who is both passionate about helping others with your own respective gifts AND insatiably in search of the essence of whom you are, yet unknowing of where to look
2. Women in the healing arts who know their ‘work’ to be meaningful, yet their reality is that its engagement is not yet sustainable in practice re: desired outcomes, finances and health/well being.
3. Women who want to start their own business in the healing arts AND fear the leap.
4. Women who want life in their living!

In a recent experience of WEL-Systems:NLP, Louise shared her thoughts about BSI and the unique contribution that it brings into the lives of others. Expressing it as “tactile CODE Model Coaching™”, Louise speaks to the sacred journey that is BSI for those for whom the disconnect of body from Self has become entrenched in the outcomes of physical symptoms through the distortion of tissue; or emotional challenges embedded in fear, anxiety and hopelessness. Take a moment to consider how your life – or that of someone you care about – could be transformed through this powerful process.

Episode 64 – Reclaiming Your Self ~ 11/05/26 ~ Moving beyond a sound-byte life!

It’s a busy world! Most of us, living busy lives on tight schedules, struggle to finish this ‘to-do’ list before we have to start the next. In our desire to get it all done, we separate, disconnect and compartmentalize the flow of our lives into manageable, bite-size chunks of outcomes and responsibilities…. and then we call that ‘living’!

There are other ways to live – and for that, we have to stop… take a long, hard look in the mirror… and own what looks back at us. Far beyond the desire to finally catch up to ourselves, we can create lives that make room not only for the truth of who we are but for the unfolding potential of who we desire to become. Imagine living your life that way, not only for your own wellbeing but for the invitation you can become to the people you care about, to create that for themselves.

We are highly contagious – and what we live becomes both permission and expectation for those who live with us, to explore that for themselves. How are you choosing to live your life, today? And how else might you redesign it, if you believed that you could?

Join Louise as she explores the pathway to living a meaningfully sustainable life. With guests who know what it is to walk the talk, be prepared to discover what’s getting in the way; and to reclaim your birthright to design the life of your choosing.

Be part of this journey that invites us all to find the courage to trust the curiosity that will lead us into a more authentic and expansive way of being ourselves.

In conversation with: WEL-Systems® Institute Affiliates and CODE Model Coaches™ Sheila Winter Wallace, Lisa Weiss, and Naomi Irons.

Each an expression of her own living truth, these courageous women know what it takes to live large and to live out loud! To find out more about these women, visit Sheila’s website, Lisa’s website and Naomi’s website.

Episode 62 – Reclaiming Your Self ~ 11/05/12 ~ Explorers in A New World

Guest Host: Sheila Winter Wallace

Discovering Self in Awakening the Body… The Power of BSI (BodySpirit Integration)

These days, we look to fix our lives and our bodies so that we can feel good about being ourselves. We talk about climbing the ladder to success, paying our dues, keeping up with the Jones’s. The trajectory of, first, we must achieve something, so, then, we can do what we think we need to do, in order to become whom we would like to be, is tied to what we think will make us acceptable to ourselves and our collectives. We stick to thinking about where, when, what and how in searching for new and meaningful lives. While we want to live differently; still, we are reluctant to step into territory, unknown to us. We have been living this way forever, it seems… and, overall, that default has amounted to struggle and despair, the world over. And, because we know of no other way, we tell ourselves that our struggle is worthwhile, that it builds character… no pain, no gain. The body is the final frontier for the revelation of that struggle. What has been percolating, in the unseen, has been doing so for a very long time, once it shows up in tissue. That is when we come to the conclusion that our bodies have betrayed us and that we have to make that body ‘right’ in order to live.

What if we have it all wrong? What if it is all genius? What if there is nothing to fix? What if our bodies have not betrayed us? What if there is another way? What if we are quantum biological humans and our tissue, through which we express Self, is, in fact, our safe home and sure territory for moment-to- moment discovery of Self? What if our bodies are the only real and sure compasses by which we get to live rich and meaningful lives of wellbeing?

Join guest host, Sheila Winter Wallace as she engages in conversation about BSI with two women who have chosen to take the WEL-Systems® journey through the body to discover more of whom they can become. What each has discovered is that she is captain of her own ship.

In conversation with: Brandi Larochelle and Marie José Raymond.Brandi, working as an HR professional in the Public Service, lives in Nunavut and has recently awakened to this new voyage of Self discovery. Marie-José – a translator who owns and operates a translation company in Ottawa, Ontario – has been willingly riding the waves of her journey for a very long time.

Note: a picture of Marie José Raymond is not available at this time.

Episode 60 – Reclaiming Your Self ~ 11/04/28 ~ Death and Dying: Reconsidering the Inevitable Journey

As the saying goes: In life, there are only two things you can be sure of – death and taxes. Yet, despite its inevitability, we are often confronted with our own fear, uncertainty and resistance to the idea of ‘death’.

What is ‘death’? What happens to us when we die? Where do we go and how do we get there? These questions are often left unexplored, with the consequence of generating more fear, sufficient to destabilize us.

Join Louise and her guest Sheila Winter Wallace as they explore the notion of ‘death’ through the eyes of a Quantum Biological Human™.

In conversation with: Sheila Winter Wallace – WEL-Systems Institute Affiliate and Certified CODE Model Coach – carries the wisdom that comes from living long and engaging meaningfully with others. In addition to many and varied certifications, Sheila’s background as an RN ensured that she would know intimately the joys of healing; and the sacred moments of closure when Life would transform itself.

Episode 56 – Reclaiming Your Self ~ 11/03/31 ~ Compromise: Virtue or Vice?

Through the cultural conditioning that becomes the framework for the structure of our ‘reality’, women are shaped to be the caretakers of relationships. Whether as mother, daughter; sister or wife; ours is to preserve the peace in the relationship and ensure its sustainability… no matter what! Regardless of the emotional, spiritual or Identity cost to ourselves, our primary consideration is the needs and interests of others – and the consequences to ourselves should we fail to notice.

Today’s conversation explores one of the fundamental tools of ‘relationship care-taking’ : compromise. With the promise of (at best) a happy ending or (at worst) a catastrophe avoided, we have become adept at weaving our way through conflicting interests and intractable positions, frequently at the cost to ourselves of a constantly eroding experience of ourselves as living a meaningful life. We march steadfastly into an unfolding future that neither lights up our lives nor feeds our soul! And yet, this desire for ‘compromise’ continues to fuel our conversations and shape our results. What magic does this process hold over us that we are willing to surrender ourselves to its flaunted outcomes?

Join Louise and her guests as they toss the coin of ‘compromise’ and explore both sides of its impact and potential. In an open, clear, honest and direct exchange, you’ll discover a different place to stand and reconsider the potential of compromise, in your life, to enhance – or diminish – your world.

In conversation with: Naomi Irons and Sheila Winter Wallace. Both Naomi and Shiela are WEL-Systems Institute Affiliates and Certified CODE Model Coaches; and are Facilitators of the 5-day women’s intensives of ‘Decloaking and Living Authentically’ and ‘Engaging and Awakening Others’. Frequent guests on this show, they bring the wisdom of their experience, the courage of their convictions and the endless curiosity that drives their way of moving through the world. Willing to look deeply into their own uncertainties, their insights and discoveries will propel your own! To find out more, visit their websites: Naomi Irons and Sheila Winter Wallace.

Episode 53 – Reclaiming Your Self ~ 11/03/10 ~ Whispers from Within: Writing for Self-Discovery

”You already have what you need to redesign your life!” How often have we heard that expression and yet, for far too many of us, we continue to believe that we are missing what we need to effectively change our lives?
For centuries, people have kept diaries, tracking the time and place of events in their lives; as well as noting those present and their impact (reporting on an external world). Others have taken this experience and moved more deeply into themselves, seeking to journal and capture their internal responses to an external event, coming closer to the core of finding the key to their own evolution (reporting on an internal world).

Now, discover those ‘whispers from within’ through the power of writing for Self-discovery, a process designed to accelerate evolution with the intention of delivering on the transformation so desperately desired, by so many. Created from a WEL-Systems® perspective and designed by Louise, you’ll come to know the degree to which you can become both willing and able to awaken the presence within and ENGAGE!

Join Louise and her guests as they share the power of this process for themselves, both as the author of their own inner creative chaos; and as the Sacred Witness to that, in another.

In conversation with: Sheila Winter Wallace (WSI Affiliate), Linda Roberts (experienced in WEL-Systems intensives) and CC Lawhon (courageous and new to this process). For more information about these guests, visit Sheila’s web site and CC’s web site.

Note: a picture of Linda Roberts is not available at this time.
