The Grief Retreat Is On May 15th & 16th
The Grief Retreat is a celebration of life. Instead of adding another layer to your experiences, this training subtracts invisible beliefs, assumptions, and false appearances that no longer work for you. Truth be told, the invisible beliefs, assumptions, and false appearances act as saboteurs any time you attempt to move forward, regardless of the endeavor. Special thanks go to all members who are using their influence with companion tickets. While some adventurers are excited to learn about this type of retreat, others are wary and default to kids, schedules, not seeing the need, etc. Share the opportunity; don’t attempt to use force. A gentle nudge is all that is necessary from a high-consciousness person, especially with people in serious trouble. I have a saying that many are familiar with: I’d sacrifice a friendship any day to save a life.
Love Has No Color
What we know at present is that we will be in Poplar, and Vernice will be our point of contact. She knows everything that is going on with the Fort Peck Reservation. We don’t have a date yet, but it will be the first or second week of August. Wednesday will be the travel day to the Reservation; Thursday and Friday will be the Fun Days; Saturday will be the community service day; and we will return home on Sunday. Williston, ND, will be the airport that we will fly to. As far as pods or activities go, it’s wide open. As most of you know, make it simple and fun. And remember, the objective is to have fun, not so much learning or teaching. Rules and too many pieces ruin the fun. It’s a celebration of love and kindness for the kids.
From the Mind of Miyagi
In past articles, we have spoken about the genius for adapting to change. The paradox that most people don’t understand is that on one side of the coin is the need for things to remain constant, and on the other side of the coin is the need for change. Change is inevitable in the world of appearance. We are in the business of making and keeping relationships, and things will change between the doctor and the practice member, especially when we put other entities, like insurance or the government, into the cauldron. We know the feeling when a practice member puts pressure on us to do the impossible, and they know the feeling of being asked for commitment when they want to be rescued or saved by somebody. Ahh, the fun of being in relationships when their life is at risk: strangers, like insurance or the government, will negatively influence their relationship with someone who can help. As if it’s not hard enough to heal without such a toxic influence.
I always say, you can’t do their part, and they can’t do yours. Entering and exiting relationships is what life is made of. This ability is greatly influenced by each person's consciousness. A person with a higher consciousness doesn’t just quit or fall off the face of the earth; they let you know, preferably face-to-face. A person with less consciousness will text or email at 2:00 a.m., and an unconscious person will ghost. Don’t take it personally; it is most often on their end. Things came up that have nothing to do with you or the care you provide.
The easier you make it for practice members by lowering recommendations, removing boundaries, doing bogus paperwork, etc., the more you actually make it difficult to experience deep, quality relationships of trust. Think about online dating here, and you will see the connection. In healing, both the practice member and the doctor must join in a relationship of trust to get the job done. In the world of appearance, everything is being thrown at you to substitute for this inconvenient truth. From AI to spam calls on your phone, they all ignore the human element, and as a result, are fatally flawed.
Miracle Training
In the superficial world of appearance, you smile at people you don’t care to, or you pretend everything is ok when it’s not. Approval and people-pleasing get high marks in the corporate world, where they need referees known as human relationship puppets who tie people up in double-tongue and siphon profits. In the world of the 4 Ds, friendship is something that has to be earned; it’s not given away to play nice or get an unearned participation ribbon. You have a job to do (saving a life), and friendship is a fuel that proves to be expensive and rare. Friendship is wonderful, but saving a life is the focus. You have little control over what comes after that, nor would you want to.
At a social gathering this past weekend, an extended family member asked me about a former Miracle Training client. He was surprised when I told him I hadn’t heard from the former client, but that’s not a bad thing. He has the compass and tools; he will bloom wherever he’s planted. I don’t walk behind Miracle Training graduates like they need propping up or training wheels; I don’t tell them how to live or make decisions for them, etc. It’s all about freedom, free will, and a whole new life. For the majority, Miracle Training is catch-and-release. It’s giving people a hard-earned treasure they can choose to use however they want. They have a second chance at life and can choose what to do with it.
DCME Confidential
Question 1: Can I bring my DCME to the Grief Retreat?
Answer: It all depends on the circumstances. There is no babysitting at the Grief Retreat, and they have to be responsible for themselves, as you are also having your own private experience. I’ll talk to you about this.
Question 2: Can I bring my father to the Grief Retreat?
Answer: Refer to the previous query. If they could do it themselves without you in attendance, then the answer is yes. The Grief Retreat is not a touristy, buy-a-tee-shirt affair. Past attendees have included people in the clutches of life and death struggles. Others are in financial or relationship peril.
