					  <description><![CDATA[Hope is one of the most powerful sources of energy ever known to humankind. Without hope, we slip from living to just existing. Hope charges our spirit and draws us forward to a better tomorrow. Hope helps us see beyond the problems to the possibilities. Hope gives life meaning. Hope helps us take responsibility for our choices. Hope stretches us and energizes our continuous growth and development.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[These have been quite a wild and challenging few years for many small-business owners and solopreneurs (who make up a large percentage of the small-business-owner population). So much in the news about economic woes and other gloom-and-doom forecasts can affect the confidence and motivation, which are crucial when you're running your own business. <br/><br/>For spirit-centered solopreneurs, this is particularly true, because you're already doing something 'out of the norm' in approaching your work and business in a new way, with a new-paradigm perspective that moves away from the old Machiavellian 'the ends justify the means' approach. <br/><br/>So what's the best approach as you read the news and perhaps even experience a shift or seeming slow-down? <br/>]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Randy Pausch was the Carnegie Mellon professor who inspired millions with "<a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo" target="_blank">The Last Lecture</a>." I didn't know him, but his death deeply affected me. And having done house calls to dying people for most of my 30 years as a psychiatrist, his passing caused me to pause and reflect on the collective wisdom that he and they have taught me.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Trust, like faith, is far from a passive stance; it's very active, in that it requires diligence, cultivation, practice, discernment, and response. It requires us to choose, moment by moment, day by day, whether we give ourselves over to fear and anxiety, or to trust and greater purpose. Rather than clunking our way through life as an obstacle course, getting bruised all along the way, trust allows us to dance, connect, and perhaps even experiencing grace and synchronicity. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[There certainly is a lot of 'doom-saying' these days. As Jonathan Cainer, the witty and optimistic British astrologer, says, "There is a boom for doom-and-gloom!" We could easily collect ample evidence for doom-and-gloom -- we can work ourselves into a panic of fear and scarcity -- if we want to do that. But is that really where we want to invest our focus and energy? Is that really where we want to invest our power? Is that what we want to see more of? My point is this -- and it's something I've been reflecting on and living into for quite awhile now, and sometimes struggling with, too: the questions we ask and the thoughts and actions we choose are an investment of our energy and power. As we go through our days, are we investing more in Light-and-Love or Gloom-and-Doom? <br/>]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[People who are able to find the gold in difficult people and situations, not only are more likely to be successful and fulfilled in life, they are also the kind of people who can lead, inspire, and make the biggest difference for others. When we are able to find things to appreciate, even and especially when things don't look so good on the surface, we're able to rise above the "drama" of life and empower ourselves and others in a genuine way. <br/><br/>]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[<strong>Your Powerful Navigation System</strong><br/><br/>For those who feel aligned with Cultural Creative values, or feel called to use their gifts and experience to make a more positive 'ripple effect' in the world, symbols, metaphors, and archetypes can be an invaluable 'guidance system.' Many of the new ways of working, or yearnings for a new and healthier way of living in harmony with others and the Earth, don't conform to long-established norms or standards of what's been considered desirable or 'successful.' So the old maps aren't quite as useful as they used to be, because many people are feeling called to different destinations altogether. In order to create new maps, many people are turning to ancient and inner Wisdom. And just how, exactly, might you access that? How can symbols help you to navigate your own authentic power-story?]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[<strong>De-stress and Re-connect with the Power of Sacred Wisdom Practices</strong><br/><br/>
<div align="justify">Several trends that continue to gain momentum center around reconnecting with Spirit, wisdom and the Sacred. For some people, that means recommitting to a church, while others incorporate teachings from shamanism, aboriginal wisdom, Goddess-culture, Nature, or other spiritual pathways into their everyday routines. </div>]]></description>
