Sacramento, CA – Why do we as human beings struggle within ourselves? Why can we not just mentally resolve all of our conflicts? What does healing actually mean, and what does self-awareness have to do with it? Carrie J. Meyer has devoted much of her life to understanding the nature of internal conflict and suffering, which she has found to be fundamentally related to healing and evolving. This “mission to understand” led her through various kinds of experience and learning and helped her comprehend what holistic really means. Her path has enabled her to cultivate a broad spectrum understanding of human consciousness, which has richly resourced her to help others heal their conflicts and fulfill their evolutionary potential through the paradigm of self-awareness. Meyer is the creator of Holoflective Healing, which encompasses Holographic Energy Work, Holistic Hypnotherapy and Integrative Counseling. “As a human being I’ve experienced and deeply investigated my own fragmentation, which has allowed me to apprec

Portage, MI – When asked for an opinion, personal perception or suggestion most of us say what’s expected of us rather than having the courage to speak up and speak out. But is that enough to create the kinds of relationships that make a difference for both parties? What does it really take to be truly influential? The answer is simpler than you might expect: We need to lead with our best self, the self who is courageous, passionate, respectful, honest, trustworthy, and committed to excellence and empowering others.

Seymour, MO – The spirit is willing, but most of us don’t seem to know how to get past our stress to find the motivation to change our habits, change our food choices, and make time for exercise. We’ve become too passive. We don’t consider our health until we sense there is a problem. We don’t take proactive steps to stay healthy. Unfortunately, most of us jump at aggressive treatment choosing chemical drugs and surgery before trying natural remedies that are outcome-based and scientifically proven. There exists a perception that traditional medicine and natural medicine are in conflict, when in fact they can complement each other. If we’re not in the hospital or under a physician’s care, we should be engaging someone who empowers us to be mindful of our health at all times. Sharon Young is the founder of Heart of Health Wellness Center where she helps bridge the gap between natural and western medicine. “I love to motivate people, to see the light bulb come on,” says Sharon. “I’m not just a health coach.

Palm Beach, Fl – The author George Eliot once said, “It is never too late to be what you might have been.” After a career in education, Marcia Chellis became a New York Times and London Timesbestselling author of four books: Living With the Kennedys: The Joan Kennedy Story; Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Lives; The Girls From Winnetka; and her most recent book Love Letters in the Sand. “I write books for and about women overcoming obstacles,” says Chellis.               Chellis’s focus changed from writing for children to writing for women after a life-changing professional experience. While living in Boston, Chellis developed an unlikely friendship with her neighbor, Joan Kennedy, wife of Senator Ted Kennedy. Living With the Kennedys: The Joan Kennedy Story, published by Simon & Schuster, did not have the typical response of a biography. Chellis would learn how Joan’s story inspired women all over the country, who believed if Joan Kennedy could recover, they could too. For her next book, Chellis profiled

Bend, OR -  When we think of hypnosis often we imagine it as a mystical mind game where people are forced to do things against their will or are trapped in a deep trance. We associate it with what we’ve seen in Hollywood movies or on TV. Cynthia Crossman is a hypnotherapist, and founder of Blue Heron Hypnosis. She utilizes hypnosis to help people with a wide variety of issues, from anger management and lack of self-confidence to chronic pain and insomnia.  “Many people have misconceptions on what hypnosis really is,” says Cynthia. “When you are under hypnosis, you do not lose consciousnesses or relinquish control. In actuality, it’s a state of focused awareness and attention, and you are fully cognizant of what is being said to you and what your responses are. Hypnosis is perfectly safe.” Cynthia’s inspiration to help people began in her teen years when she had a deep desire to do something meaningful with her life. By chance she discovered hypnotherapy and the method resonated with her as a wonderful way to

Washington, DC – A church is not about a building. Ministry is not about preaching from the pulpit. It’s so much more than that. Ministry is about service.

Elgin, IL – According to recent studies, as many as 2.5 million people in the United States suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. a devastating multi-system disease that causes dysfunction of the neurological, immune, endocrine and metabolic systems. Beckie Butcher is the author of My Battle With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which chronicles her struggle with the disease. “We may not die, but our lives are taken away from us,” says Beckie. Beckie says after three years of keeping a stiff upper lip and reminding herself things could be worse, she had to step back and mourn her loss. The experience inspired her to finally sit down and process the profound change in her life. The result was My Battle With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. “It was cathartic,” says Beckie. “The more I wrote the more came out about how I handled what's going on inside of my body. I’ve come a long way but I still have a long way to go.” At least 25 percent of patients are homebound or bedbound. Beckie was both. Today, Beckie is no longer bedri
