Dear Sylvia,                                        Sat 27 Sept 2008

I am in this wonderful place where I feel that connectedness and so full of love sometimes I feel overcome with it.  I then just marvel in the fact And the positive changes that have happened in my life ........ I feel SO blessed. xxx Val.

Last weekend speaking at a BPW conference in Bunbury, Western Australia I was aware that the energy of humanity is shifting.

Newsletter 561                                                                                        June 2008
Welcome to our many new subscribers with a 'wrap around' hug to the Adelaide Mastery graduates. Your warmth of love, caring and understanding during our family bereavement will always be remembered. Through these days, my inner strength came from the words 'kindness and grace' as in the latter days of grandma's life (my former Mother in Law), these were the gifts she imparted to us. The kindness and understanding from our friends touched our hearts and lives forever. As the generation before us moves on the opportunity is there for us to step up and be of service on another level.
If I have missed answering your calls or emails in the last few weeks, please contact me again - I've been supporting family - I'm here for you now.
Treasuring our relationship with you. Rich BlesSings always. Sylvia & David. I came here not knowing what to expect. Each day was a revelation, a peeling back of another layer. On the first day I was really worried I wouldn't be able to do this work - I needn't have...Sylvia guided us all so skillfully enabling each of us to deal with issues that were buried and unknown to us/me that were causing me to self sabbotage. A truly uplifting experience. Heather Bosward. Co-ordinator Disability Services. Grief & Loss Palliative Care Counselling. Adelaide. SA.

There were times when my sides ached from the joy of laughter - when we are making quantum change in our life, are we not supposed to be serious. Aparently not!
David & I have just returned from presenting a seven day Mastery program - many times throughout the week I was reminded of  Patch Adams and the work of the laughter doctors. We sang, we laughed, we went to the deep centre of our being and made change. All who attended came with one resolve, to ensure the future was not a repeat of the past.Pictured in the countenance of every person was a glow - a knowing that change had occurred on a deep cellular level - this week was not a 'get away from it all week' it was truly a soul journey.
Rich blesSings to all as you continue your journeys.
Friends and sacred journey companions, Sylvia & David

Newsletter 559                                                                                    May 2008  
It seemed as if time was still and yet the changing light of day reminded us that life was moving on, to another time. David & I were sitting by the beach at Russell in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand looking across the bay to Waitangi and watching the sunset.
Earlier in the day we watched a pod of more than a hundred dolphins playing with their young, and the day before we had traveled along the water line of the ninety mile beach (the length of the beach/road depends on whether the tide is low or high) and later walked to the tip of the north island – an auspicious moment for me as in my youth I’d been to Stewart Island in the south and to Farewell Spit the northern tip of the south island -  I’d been to the south of the north island and it was a goal of mine to go to the lighthouse at Cape Regina the tip of the north island, the meeting place of the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean.
Inside I wept with joy as the Maori mythology story of how the Spirit will find it’s way home, ignited in my memory. That connectedness was confirmation that no matter where I am in the world the Spirit will find it’s way home. We often share a joke with David. He is a retired farmer and we often say “you can take the man from the farm but you never take the farm/country out of the heart of the man. Although I have lived the longest part of my life in Western Australia, Aotearoa (Maori name for New Zealand) surrounds every cell of my being. I was jolted into present time, I remembered the many down hill steps we made to the lighthouse and now there was a steep climb to get back to our vehicle – the help from the tail-wind to return, confirmed - my spirit was here for yet another journey.
David & I giggled as at a rather precipitous point when the legs were feeling weak a great gust of wind propelled us over the steepest part - a timely assist.
Often after the Auckland Mastery Retreat I'm soon onto a plane returning to Perth . This year we planned our holiday time and were rewarded with perfect weather, health and energy. Love, Peace and Rich blesSings to you.
Friends and sacred journey companions, Sylvia & David

Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, we are responsible f or who we become. Sylvia Marina           

Newsletter 558                                                                                   April 2008
Is life hectic f or you. How are some people relaxed, stress-free and centered even in the seeming midst of chaos. If you are in the ‘harried’ group have you noticed those amongst us who seem unfazed by schedules and daily life. Perhaps they are not aware that chaos is surrounding them or maybe, just maybe, they know the secret to attaining inner peace.
Where to start:
Take a few moments to consciously connect to your breath.
Take a deep breath. And another. Breathing is a natural way
to relax your body and let go of stress.
Once you start to incorporate deep breaths into your day, you
will realize how often you have been holding yours.
Holding your breath is energy depleting. Often times feeling "off track" is a sign you've been relying too heavily on your ‘Beta’ brain power energy and not enough on your intuitive power. Take time to consciously breathe it can connect you to your inner resources, your inner place of peace. Peace & Rich blesSings to you. Sylvia & David

Sylvia’s work transcends the boundaries of the imagination and leads us into a dreamscape where we transform limiting and destructive behaviors into beneficial assets.

Understanding mor e... People go through a series of developmental periods in the creation of their maj or c or e values.
What if, in the impressionable days of our life we, like a sponge, abs or bed everything that went on in our environment – how would our life be now
We received our basic programming by the time we were 4 years of age. This basic came from our parents and older sibling behavi or s, perhaps developed phobias and patterns of behavi or that we and others began to read as our ‘authentic self’.
Sadly many of the patterns were not our authentic self they are learnt behavi or s that we developed from the ‘imprint’ period of our life.  Subconsciously many convert these behaviors as coming from or forming part of their ‘core values’, then in the modeling and socialization period of development, lived the behaviors.  These behaviours are often interpreted as c ore values - in reality,
they are misinterpretations, learnt reactions, imprints that clash with our authentic self and our truth.

C ore values do not change  - other than through conscious intervention or a significant emotional experience.

In adult life we gather our c or e values, those ideas that we have learnt from our childhood (imprint days) and put them into our relationships, our career – our relationships, our business is
an exact reflection of our self and our learned behaviors, phobias, fears and habits.
Looking at life from this perspective, how are your relationships, intimacy, health, business, career and community involvements.  During a Mastery program learn how to change dysfunctions, core beliefs, phobias, fears, habits and more...

Yesterday as David & I sat beneath a natural canopy of leaves I consciously noticed glimpses of the bright blue sky beyond. My mind alerted to the many that I have the privilege to help and who, until recent could not see the blue sky, not because of physical clouds but from dark experiences cementing them into what appeared as a fixed zone of sadness. Stuck in emotions, goals they would like to achieve but don’t know how. Hurts they would like to heal or move on from but can’t find a starting point.
Relationships which are no longer fulfilling - Or stuck in a routine and don’t know how to change - under a canopy of darkness feeling like ‘there’s nowhere to go’. How to make change -
Realize that feeling stuck is a feeling – not a fact.
Let go of the idea that this is all there is.
Listen to your self talk. Change negative thinking into positive energy - instead of thinking “life’s a merry-go-round” say, “every step I take moves me into my future”.
Be willing to see through the canopy, to happiness beyond.
Rich blesSings to you. Sylvia & David

In quiet waters, reflections are un-distorted - Sylvia Marina

Newsletter 556                                                                                    March 2008
To our new and long time subscribers welcome to Autumn in the great southern and to springtime in the blossoming north.
In Western Australia , acc or ding to the weather bureau we experienced the hottest summer f or thirty years. How did that affect our lives.
Because the weather was constantly hot we became aware of the need to drink more water every day. Unlike other summers when we would get an unexpected extraordinary hot day we would look back and realize we should have had more water.
With the prolonged heat I found it easier to drink large amounts of water every day. I also enjoyed the juice of a lime or lemon in a glass of water refreshing. Fresh fruit, nuts and seeds, choices of protein and the fresh vegetable salads that David made almost every day were refreshing and healthy – one of the bonuses from w or king in the home office!

I was grateful too for daylight saving, dining outside on the back patio or by the Swan or Canning river and moments by the Indian Ocean.
We’ve taken every opp or tunity to enjoy nature this summer. This combined with a daily GNLD F or mula 1V some Cal Mag, Silica and Co Enzyme Q10 plus enough sleep and an occasional after lunch cat-nap we came through the heat of summer grateful f or the occasional evening cool breeze that fluttered the leaves on our trees bringing freshness to an otherwise stifling day.
I’m humming the song…'it’s a beautiful life'. Love, wisdom and rich blesSings to you. Sylvia & David

How do some people almost always attain good health, career success and personal breakthroughs even in less-than-ideal circumstances….

People who know how to find the quiet space within, even in chaotic situations (learn how to meditate) are much more successful in all facets of their life, than those who don’t.
Their sense of purpose is greater and more focused than that of non-meditators. They have a deep sense of knowing and trust divine wisdom. In relationships they allow kindness and love to flow from their inner being. They don’t fear being alone.

So why doesn’t everyone meditate.
Perhaps because of the myth, you have to meditate for a very l-o-n-g time. Boring!Even after years of diligent meditation the temp or ary peace cannot be translated into real life. If this were the truth I wouldn’t do it either - Sylvia.

Mastery is an exciting program that empowers the individual to become more ‘in tune’ with the inner being. Sylvia has a great talent for coaching you through those touch moments and emphasizing the joy of success.  G.G. Feb 2008.
Trust was a huge issue for me. Through the process it became so easy. To open up and be myself was different. I found a confidence and happiness I’ve never experienced before.  E.S. Feb 2008.

After fifty days without a drop of rain recorded by the weather bureau for this area the heavens opened blessing the earth with several hours of refreshing showers.
Here in Western Australia the summer has been relentlessly hot day and night – it’s tiring.

The rain – made a significant difference. The earth parched from the long hot days, took it's time to receive the rain. The water sat in pools apon the arid earth waiting!

Sometimes in human life, it can take a while for the portal of desire that's been longing to discover potential, new options, new or next phase of life to realize, help is here now. It is time to waken from the weariness of drought and desire. 
Now is the time to receive, to allow the seed sown in another season to begin a new life.

Standing in the gentle rain, my voice whispered to the trees and plants and then, from my heart to yours  - a better life can be yours now.

Open you heart and mind to receive -Good Health & Rich BlesSings. Sylvia & David

Even though I'm at my best I can do better - Serena Williams

Newsletter 554                                                                                  January 2008
In our last newsletter to you we had just presented the Purpose workshop – typical of our experiential programs, the outcome is different for every participant, and the fullness of the experience becomes apparent as the future unfolds.

At the beginning of each year many set their ‘smart goals’ and wonder why they rarely get them past the middle of January – that’s because the goals are not aligned with our purpose.

Since the purpose workshop I have been working in a mastermind group ‘creating and designing our ultimate life’.

I’m feeling, perhaps as a newly emerged butterfly feels, unfolding and drying my wings.

It’s like a filter has been removed and I’m viewing the world with new vision.

On the second evening of the February Mastery retreat I’ll present a thumb sketch important to the process.

The few days of this year have been full of activity. I’ve answered the request of many - to record tips, tools and techniques that I use and teach in our Public Speaking Business Training. In terms of Public Speaking learning, nothing compares to being on your feet in one of our two day workshops, however in the workshop I present so many valuable tips and you the participant is fast trying to gather the gems before they are lost that I’ve recorded a six CD audio album SPEAKING SKILLS – insights and techniques to being a sensational public speaker for you.
Many believe public speaking and presentation skills are only required by those who stand at a lectern. In business and in personal life we make presentations everyday. Every time we speak one-to-one or to a group we are communicating to persuade, appeal, inform or entertain.
The CD’s are packed with useable items including techniques for dealing with speech anxiety.

Every anxiety and limitation we eliminate from our life means we become free to get on with the important part of life – our purpose.

Let 2008 be a year when you discover the butterfly experience.

Rich BlesSings. Sylvia Marina & David
