‘Engaging…and awakening others’ a milestone

Halifax recenty saw the first offering of the Women and WEL-Systems five-day intensive ‘Engaging…and awakening others’.  A small but courageous group of women gave it their all as they stepped into the majesty of their own truth and made two very important discoveries:

  • Engaging life cloaked, or engaging life decloaked will produce very different results!
  • Engaging decloaked may sometimes feel more difficult but is always more powerful!

These new Women and WEL-Systems experiences are designed to keep pace with the acceleration that is occurring in our world.  Making a difference begins with our own awakening, so that we might live our lives by design rather than be habituation.  For info on one of these intensives near you, visit the Schedule for Decloaking, Engaging or Emerging.

WEL-Systems Programs with Irene Skehen:
Capital Health District, Halifax, NS

Irene Skehen is a facilitator and educator of wellness and recovery within Capital Health District in Halifax. A Certified WEL-Systems® Master Facilitator, Irene's programs/workshops are now all WEL-Systems based - and her excitement about it is contagious! Read on to find out more about what Irene has to say of her recent WEL-Systems program experience.

Contact Irene directly at somethingmore@eastlink.ca to find out more or to register into one of her programs.

“Over the past couple of years, I have been trying to find a place in my work environment to ‘fit’ WEL-Systems. Because of its cutting-edge philosophy I thought many people were not ready for it. So I continued to use the same old material that’s been around for years even thought I did not believe in it any more. It’s not that it was good, bad, right or wrong, it’s just that I knew there was so much more. After some time I found myself slipping WEL-Systems into my workshops, a little bit at a time. And, then finally, that wasn’t good enough either.

In the fall of 2006 things changed. Or, I should say I changed. What I realized was it wasn’t quite so much that people weren’t ready; it was all about me and the fact that perhaps I wasn’t ready. I wasn’t ready to decloak fully. Well, now I have. Now I am putting my self out there with what I believe and what I know works for me. And I now know I don’t have to convince anyone of anything, I just need to be who I am and present mySelf.

I am very excited about presenting the WEL-Systems body of knowledge because I know, in my body, that it is real and that it works and that it is an amazing and natural way to live your life. It offers an opportunity to notice and explore a different way of considering your life. It shows you how to change the way you perceive your life, so that you can change it, if you so desire. This is not about convincing someone of anything, it’s about inviting others to look through a different lens, just look, and what you do with what you discover is entirely up to you.”

Whispers from Within: Women's Writing Retreat

March 19 - 23, 2007 at Oceanstone, Nova Scotia

Do you ever catch yourself wondering about what lies deep within you... beyond your history, your habits and the life you've become used to living?

Do you ever wonder what lies beneath the surface of your thoughts... the ones that you keep to yourself and don't dare share with the people in your world?

Do you ever wonder how else you might choose to live... who else you might become.. if you had any sense of how to find that out?

For some of us, it's a nagging sensation deep in the body. For others, it's a sense of agitation or irritation - a resltessness - with our lives, regardless of what others tell us we should be grateful for!

Whispers from Within: A Women's Writing Retreat creates the physical, emotional and spiritual Space within which this exploration can take place. Join Louise and a small group of women on this journey of Self-discovery and Self-expression that could change your life.  An overview of this experience can be found at www.WEL-Systems.com/programs/WR.htm
