"Reclaiming Your True Nature"

October 12, 2008

Our speaker was Heather Ash Amara

"Everything we experience is based on agreements we have made--with ourselves, with other people, with God, with life. But the most important agreements are the ones we make with ourselves. In these agreements we tell ourselves who we are, how to behave, what is possible, what is impossible."

A well known spiritual integrity coach, Heather spent six years studying and teaching with don Miguel Ruiz, author of The Four Agreements. She is the author of The Four Elements of Change and co-author of Spiritual Integrity with her husband, Raven Smith. She is currently working on her new book, Sacred Time Management. Heather Ash is the co-founder of The Toltec Center of Creative Intent in Wimberley, a non-denominational spiritual community center that offers classes, workshops, and events.

"Patience and Pessimism"

Rev. Linda Pendergrass talked today about the metaphysical and physical effects of what we think on a regular basis and how it creates our reality, often without our very conscious awareness. She offers insights into how we can change our thinking to help improve the results we get in life.
