Wondrous Intent focuses on life contracts and how to amend them, recovering true self , inspiring original intention, purpose, and heartfelt service. In today’s world, it is no longer sufficient to consider one’s own desire as separate from the whole. We are now aware that our thoughts and intentions already affect our environment and other living creatures. Our desires are requested to take this into consideration.
 
Desire and Purpose: Your purpose, and your soul, call you with great love to attract and pull you towards what only you are here to enjoy, demonstrate, and create. Living one’s personal passion takes focus, discipline, and cooperation on different levels. In this workshop, you will discover this calling, and will have the needed guidance on how to live it. We are asked to take a quantum leap from wishful thinking to manifest reality.
 
The “Field of Dreams” Approach: Learn to link your unconscious with collective and sacred through symbols, deep listening, initiations, and multi-layered class exercises. Harmonize your gifts and talents inwardly, and mobilize them with integrity. (Walk your talk!)
 
Nurturing, Play, and (shhh…the “e” word!*):
 
Pleasure is one of the greatest healers. When we are enjoying, laughing, relaxing, and loving, there is not much space for anything else in our being. Loving and caring for ourselves and others expands our ability: to be fully ourselves, to be grateful for what we have, and for who we are. In this mode, we can even welcome irrational thought and random expression to shake up tedious viewpoints and patterns. In this exalted state, we can even examine our beliefs, and update them to ones that better support us. I call this state theo-erotic,* as Spirit is present and pleasure can be felt throughout our flesh and blood.
 
My belief is that God or divine presence can most easily be felt throughout our physical senses in pleasure filled activity. Prayer becomes an outpouring of this physical sense of wellbeing through communication, recognizing that in the doing itself, the future is already engaged in response to our prayers.
 
“The Universe is constantly saying ‘yes’ to us. It only says ‘yes’ It is our task to discover what within us it is saying ‘yes’ to.− Lenedra J. Carroll
 
Next Workshop Schedule: Generally, the class is made up of 10 classes, that are between two and four hours long, each. Days are needed between the classes to have the time to complete the home exercises, and to allow a realistic flow and process.
 
Workshop Hours: The workshop is 30 hours (10 meetings) to completion, and it is essential to attend all classes unless there is a personal/medical crisis or emergency.

You may have heard that it has magically transformed it’s participants lives (for the better) over the years, and has a 98% success rate. This kind of change can cause immediate alterations, and part of the interview process
is for us to determine together if it is the right time for you to enter into that change.
