Dear Friends,

I always get excited when Linda Jacobson, one of my favorite artists, announces she is going to do a retreat! And of all places she is going to Abiquiu, New Mexico this Sept 18-24th.

Ignite the Power Within – FREE Telesummit
- Longing to step off the hamster wheel and into your own authentic power?
- Ever feel like you’re stuck on the hamster wheel of life, unable to move forward with your dreams?
- Like you’re just going round and round, with nothing ever changing or improving?
I know exactly what that’s like – I’ve been there myself! And during the fabulous (and free!) Ignite the Power Within telesummit, I’ll be explaining how I moved past that feeling of stuck-ness and into my own authentic power. I’ll also be sharing the practical tools and techniques that worked for me.
**Join me and 21 other expert speakers for an informative, inspirational, and motivational interview series that runs from June 25 to August 2. Between all of us, we’ll help you to identify and take the actions you need to transform the rest of 2013 into your best year yet!

Ready for a Personal Intensive?
Do you ever…
- Wake up wondering whose life you’re living?
- Feel like you’re lacking clarity?
- Find yourself short-tempered, frustrated or unhappy?
- Wish your relationships were more supportive and loving?
- Want to forgive and move on, but can’t?
- Crave freedom from your own life and mind?
If so – join me for a Personal Intensive. It’s a powerful experience and is a great way to jump-start your life. In my experience, the root of most people’s issues is a belief system that is sabotaging their life – rather than supporting it.
Imagine what life could be like if you were calm and centered no matter what situation you faced in life, rather than emotional and unclear!
What if you no longer took people’s actions personally? Or if forgiveness came easy to you? Or even if you never got in another argument for the rest of your life?! Believe me – it is possible.
Sheri, how will I benefit? You’ll learn to…
- Take positive action in life – regardless of anxiety or fear.
- No longer feel victimized by the people in your life.
- Deal with people openly, without taking their actions and words to heart.
- Let go of the burdens of the past, forgive and move on with gratitude and joy.
- Reclaim your self-esteem and greater life purpose.
- Replace anger with focused clarity.
- No longer fear confrontation, or be a doormat for others.
- Come to a place of self-acceptance, no matter what actions you took in the past.
- Clearly identify your limiting beliefs, their origin and true purpose – empowering you to make healthier life choices.
- Utilize specific tools to help you live courageously, boldly, and with your head held high.
If this sounds like something that you could use – I encourage you read more about the experience on the website and make an appointment to chat with me right away about your desires and goals! The summertime intensives book up early so I suggest you do take action quickly. Blessings, Sheri
OUR GUEST ARTICLE
The Miraculous Healing Power of Dolphins
Most of us have heard stories of people having profound healings from being with dolphins and whales. I’ve witnessed it numerous times and have experienced it myself. How does it happen, and do you have to physically be with them to receive the benefit of their healing energy?
In many civilizations around the world dolphins represent the pure embodiment of joy. We can almost say this feeling is universal – across cultures and languages. Just think of a dolphin, wild and free in the open ocean, and you find yourself smiling. Their energy has a very uplifting effect on all of us!
Dolphins are credited for causing all kinds of physical, emotional and spiritual healings in people. There are multiple accounts of autistic children speaking their first words after swimming with dolphins.
Ben is a more typical example of the kind of healing we witness. He struggled with depression most of his adult life, and he hadn’t had a full night’s sleep since his father’s violent death when Ben was a teenager. He came on a dolphin retreat to spend time with his sister. At the end of the week he shared that much to his surprise and delight, his depression had lifted, he felt deeply at peace, and he’d slept through the night, every night, for the first time in decades.
When planning to swim with wild dolphins, it’s best to leave your expectations at home. The problem with having too clear an idea of what we want is that we inevitably end up stepping out of the present moment to compare what we’re experiencing with our expectation. Because we’re not fully present, expectation leaves little room for things to grow and evolve.
Betty worked as a trainer for a captive dolphin program. She came out with us to meet the wild dolphins, and voiced her expectation that the wild dolphins would recognize her “specialness” and respond to her like the dolphins she worked with. She was disappointed when they didn’t immediately single her out, and she actually got back on the boat while the rest of us swam.
Anticipation on the other hand, is being excited for what is possible with an attitude of openness. It primes us for a great time and allows us to be fully present. Donna is a healer and shared that she wanted the dolphins to touch her on her right hip which was the source of much pain for her. I invited her to hold the desire loosely, so she could be with the dolphins however they chose to interact with her. One day during a swim, she let out a loud squeal of joy; one of the juvenile dolphins had come racing from behind her and, sure enough, lightly touched her with his pectoral fin directly on her right hip!
I’ve received many kinds of healings myself from the dolphins over the years. There have been so many times I have dragged my sorry butt to the sea carrying an intolerable load of worries and concerns, only to have the dolphins appearance make it all fade away.
Through their wisdom and innate love of life, the dolphins and whales have shown me that all healing is a return to love. Healing has for me, become the simple act of releasing stress and returning to a joyful view of the world. (Its hard to stay stressed when you’re around them!)
Let’s take a minute together and have some fun by inviting the energy of the dolphins to join us, right here and now. A thought or image of a living being can carry the frequency of the original. Picture a happy dolphin looking at you with love and joy in its eyes, seeing you in all your beauty and magnificence. Use your imagination, or one of the photos here. As you look at/ponder/envision this, give yourself full permission to feel all the love and joy you have inside, welcome an exuberant feeling with anticipation. The dolphin is evoking/mirroring/bringing into your awareness the love and joy that is already within you.
As you feel yourself rising in joy, take a moment and breathe this energy into your entire body. Thank your miraculous body for all it does for you. Imagine expanding this love, like a big etheric balloon, to include your surroundings, and extend it again to include the dolphins’ ocean home.
Give yourself full permission to see the ocean in all its joy and vitality, and know that the love that you are sharing is raising the vibration of joy in our world! Now take this wonderful feeling you have inside you and pass it along to someone who really needs a hug. 🙂
