We are at the forefront of affecting vast sweeping changes in our families, communities and the world at large. But how can we accomplish this when there is only a short window of time to completely flip the paradigm away from division and separation toward a more human, just and equitable society? Carol Fitzpatrick will share some of the most essential navigational tools that will take us to this new paradigm. She will provide you with keys to maintaining your empowered state during this critical time, and show what happens after the flip as we are challenged to build a new world together. * Questions that will be addressed: * How will the New World will look and how are we to live as a harmonious people: a people who honor the land, plants and animals as we grow into a global society? * What is the most essential ingredient that you need to know, right now, to create the most profound shift possible in your life and the world around you? * What happens after the shift? What does the new energetic, emotional, mental and physical landscape look like? Who is there with you? * What do you do? Where do you fit in? How can you be of service? The good news is that the new structures are being created now—right now. You don’t have to wait. As the old systems are falling away, the new is already being built to take its place. It’s just a matter of learning 1) how to identify the new structure and landscape in your own life; 2) how to know which system you are in - old or new - at any given time; 3) how to contribute to the new by no longer giving attention to the old with feelings of disempowerment; and 4) how to find others who are already living in the new paradigm of oneness consciousness as a way of life. Title: Activating the Power and Force of Light That You Are Presenters: Carol Fitzpatrick and Mark Torgeson? Learn how the power of the human heart can transform absolutely anything about our world. As we remain in the very center of this knowing, we feel the world as our soul has already imagined it into creation - then take action from that place of knowing. Join Carol Fitzpatrick and Mark Torgeson, cosmic way-makers, as they play and create spontaneously with spirit to activate the very essence of who you are. Join them for a mind shifting, heart expanding experience: an experience that can only be felt as an amplified force of light when like-hearted people gather to transform their own lives, and in the process radically create a climate for the birthing of a new world. We are all connected to someone we love, and they to others. When we set our intention for the highest outcome for all not only do our own lives transform but absolutely everything about our world changes as well. Join us to Vision your heart’s desire for a better world, Feel the presence of peace when all hearts align; Discover the joy of honoring all living things; Share new self-healing technologies; and Gain new paradigm tools for creating the new world Title: How the Future is Here Right Now and How You are a Part of the Solution Learn what the future looks like right now through the lens of modern day mystic and seer Carol Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick asserts that while old paradigm systems are failing, the new has arrived and is already creating a climate of all working together as one. We each have a particular part of the puzzle to solve, and our success in building these new structures, within the context of a global community, will come about when those who are invested in creating fully sustainable environments work together as a whole. The desire to form strategic alliances and collaborations with others who are engaged in humanitarian, environmental, ecological and health enhancing innovations will be the measure of our collective success. Learn how just one person can make a difference, and how all working together as one can create an exponential shift in how we transform our world. We have learned how to imagine with feeling and intention within the context of the purity of our very own hearts. Next is how to leverage all the talents and resources for creating entirely new systems that benefit everyone.

These very highly refined vibrations are now accessible to everyone. In my experience, all it takes is an open heart and a willingness to channel grace from one light being to another. This is the very act of selfless service, which is the very essence of new paradigm of leadership. As above so below. During these sessions, we are totally immersed in the knowing as we call forth grace as a collective light to shift global consciousness & within each person present, but not without the help and guidance of the angels and master teachers who lavish their love and direction on us. It's intense emotional, mental and physcial clearing and activation. Everyone helps and everyone gets their time. LM is for new paradigm leaders to come together to offer mutual support, vibrational (energetic and sound) healing, and deepening. Partipants set the tone for the day.

It's true that the Big Shift into chaos has already begun. It's a vibrational shift into the unknown. We are all on a journey toward the oneness, and no one really knows where we are going. It's a journey back to home. We instinctually know our way. Like salmon that swim up stream to get to their final destination, we too, know our way. And it's all about vibration. If you are wishing to hone your nagivational skills, plan to join us. An afternoon of vibrational healing, dialog, movement, creation. This session is a part of the Topics series that explores the very nature of vibration as a navigation tool.
