A woman called the other day and said, “Nothing is working and I don’t understand it. Why is everything in my life so difficult?”

This is a being, I thought to myself, who has lost her source perspective. Metaphorically, she built her house, locked herself in it, and then lost the key. I call that ‘being trapped in your own creation.’

Many people have lost their source perspective. They perceive themselves as trapped in circumstances that they’re unable to change.

Avatar is a return to source. It’s a return to the viewpoint of source…source of the conditions and circumstances we find ourselves in.

This awakening of a ‘source perspective’ occurs on the Avatar Course. Finding one’s way back to source is a journey that every being can take to recover control of...

Do you have a “junk drawer”? Most people do. You know, the place where you put stuff when you don’t know where to put it. Could be a box, could be a shelf in your closet, could be a drawer, it doesn’t matter. It’s that place where, when you don’t know where to put something, but you don’t want to throw it away, and you don’t want to give it too much significance – that’s right, into the junk drawer!

For a short while you’re able to keep track of things in the drawer, but as life goes on you find more things that you don’t know where to put – so you put them in your junk drawer, and suddenly you can’t find anything.

Has it happened to you?

When the drawer gets too full and unmanageable then you have to deal with it – which isn’t easy at that point….

Are you wanting to evolve and make changes in your life, but don’t know where to begin? Are you searching for a self-improvement course, but have questions about what will work?

Why I did Avatar…

Okay, so, truth is, I did Avatar because my husband did it. Not very original, right? But it’s true. He was always the spiritual leader in our family of 2, and whatever he did, I tagged along. But, this was different.

Something really magical happened when Rich came home from the Avatar Course 28 years ago. He’d been away for a week doing Avatar and strangely, I felt different. Isn’t that curious? He had been off in Vermont for 8 days doing ‘I didn’t know what,’ and when he came home, I noticed that I felt different around him. There was this “space” where I could...

Are you looking for a way to make positive changes in your life – a personal growth course that feels right for you? Have you heard of Avatar?

Many people ask us, “What is Avatar?” and I always find it challenging to answer. Everyone experiences Avatar differently… because the course is about YOU. And, all YOU’s are unique.

But, I’ve discovered an answer that speaks to everyone. It’s right from the horse’s mouth. Do you want to hear it?

Listen to the “West Coast Tour” audiotape. The speaker is Harry Palmer… yes, the founder of Avatar. He recorded this live in 1987, speaking to a group of Avatar prospects in a living room in Southern California.

What I love, love, love! about this tape is that Harry describes all of the tools you learn in the Avatar Course. He...

Shakespeare has a line in his play, “Taming of the Shrew”, about “killing with kindness”, meaning to be overly kind to the point of being obnoxious. It’s a funny juxtaposition, isn’t it? It’s quite an oxymoron, to be so kind to someone that you might kill them…

Now don’t get me wrong, kindness is a powerful energy in consciousness, it’s a catalyst for our caring and connected actions.

But “killing with kindness” seems a little extreme to me. So how about if we update the phrase; maybe “hassle with kindness” – or “aggravate with kindness”? Maybe…

So let’s definitely be kind. Let’s be overly kind, let’s be overwhelmingly kind. Kindness matters…

There are so very many ways to be kind, and every single one makes an enormous difference. Let’s just leave out the...

Is it possible…

“The Avatar Course is nothing more or less than an escape from a mind trap, which you’ve been caught in for so long that you have forgotten what freedom feels like.”

Harry Palmer, The Avatar Path: The Way We Came

Is that possible? Really? Is it possible that your mind has totally trapped you — and you don’t know it? Hmm…what do you think?

Is it possible that you’ve been dreaming through this lifetime, and you haven’t even known you’re asleep?

Is it possible that there’s something more than just the world of physical objects and words and thinking, is it possible that there’s a powerful, expanded consciousness that’s available to all of us, a way to create peace and harmony in the world, but we just haven’t known where to look?

Well,...

What Is Compassion?

According to the Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, compassion is “a sympathetic consciousness of others’ distress, together with a desire to alleviate it.”

That’s interesting, but true compassion runs much broader and deeper than a dictionary can convey. Here are some quotes about compassion from people you may have heard of:

“Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.” -Dalai Lama

“Compassion is the ultimate expression of your highest self.” – Russell Simmons

“Compassion isn’t about solutions. It’s about giving all the love that you’ve got.” – Cheryl Strayed.

“When you have learned compassion for yourself, compassion for others is automatic.” – Henepola Gunaratana

Are you interested in improving the world?

The Avatar® Course puts you in the driver’s seat in life.

That may seem an unusual way to express it, but many of us (most of us), have been letting someone else drive.

We buy certain clothes because our friends wear them. We buy certain cars because our parents did. We enjoy certain music, we like certain types of people, we think certain kinds of thoughts, because…we’re copying someone else.

The copy may be interesting or fun or entertaining — but it’s still a copy.

It’s not YOU…

Have you ever noticed how two people can follow the same set of instructions but get different outcomes? One is extremely successful, while the other is failing. How can that be? Shouldn’t a good strategy work no matter what? Do this and you are sure to succeed; do something else and won’t?

What’s going on here?

If your actions aren’t producing the results you intended to create, you may need a software update. That’s right, a software update for your consciousness.

You are the hardware. Your consciousness (meaning your mind and your beliefs) is the software. Beliefs can be assistive at one time in your life, but then became antiquated as time and circumstances change and evolve. If you’re not running the latest operating system, life can get very confusing.

Many of us are interested in changing, evolving, helping others, improving our lives and improving the world. The question most people ask is, “How can I do that?” The answer is don’t wait for things to change on their own, YOU must take action steps to effect the change you want.

The next question is, “How can I do that?”

The answer is The Avatar Course.

Avatar teaches the behind-the-scenes secrets of consciousness; it shows you how to use the untapped potential you already possess to create the kind of life you want, to contribute to others, to be a force for good. Avatar teaches you powerful tools that will allow you to achieve a mastery of life that few people can claim.

Don’t get me wrong, resolutions are okay things.

It’s always good to take stock, clarify your goals and get focused.

But clarifying your goals is only the first step.

If you don’t get your thinking straight and have a plan of action, you won’t get very far.

Why? Because there’s a secret to creating effectively — both in consciousness and in the physical universe.

And the Avatar Course will teach you all the tools you’ll need to create powerfully and effectively.

I work out of my home. I’ve turned one of my spare bedrooms into a home office. It’s very convenient. I waste no time commuting to work each day. Or so you’d think.

In actuality, when I walk from my office to the kitchen, I pass through the living room. And, every time I do, which can be 50-100 times a day, I notice my decorative zen water garden that needs more water. I notice the handle on my front door that’s slightly tilted and needs tightening. If I made a mental note and then handled it before bed, I would have a different experience on my commute to the kitchen the next morning, but I don’t, and, a little bit of my attention gets stuck on those things and is not available to me to create with.

I lose just a little bit of my attention on each incomplete item, and...

Who Controls Your Mind?

Do you control it?

I mean, it is your mind. If you don’t control it, who does?

Learning to live deliberately means recovering your ability to control your own mind. From there, you’ll learn to manage your consciousness and create the life you desire.

How can you learn to live deliberately?

Reading about Avatar® is good.

Experiencing Avatar in person is amazing.

There are three good reasons why a personal experience of Avatar is like nothing else you’ve ever tried to change your life.

First – the exercises are experiential. You only get results by doing the exercises, and Avatar exercises have been tested and proven by over 100,000 people around the world for years.

Second – Avatar Masters are experts at coaching people on how to do Avatar exercises. They provide a safe, supportive environment with clear feedback and instructions on the exercises. It’s a one-on-one exploration and they make sure it’s lots of fun.

Third – you decide what you want to change. The exercises are delivered in a specific series that is proven to bring people to...

If your dog was causing trouble with the neighbors, damaging things of value, and otherwise running amok — you’d get him trained, wouldn’t you? Well, your mind is probably creating more trouble in your life than a dog ever could. That’s why we highly recommend the Avatar® Course and the incredible benefits this consciousness training offers.

Here are just a few of the benefits students regularly report:

  1. Get rid of the roadblocks and self-sabotaging beliefs that are causing you to fail.
  2. Take control of your own thinking and eliminate useless worries.
  3. Reduce stress and become more alive and aware in every moment.
  4. Free up attention that is trapped in the past.
  5. Know what you want and how to achieve it.

This talk is called “How to Make Sense Out of Life.”

That’s what a lot of people are trying to do, to make sense out of life. If you’re one of those people, I have only one thing to say —- “Good Luck!”

Really, because life doesn’t make sense. It’s not logical; it’s not linear; it’s not supposed to make sense. And if you keep trying to make sense of it, you’ll just make yourself crazy. Trust me on that.

Life isn’t meant to make sense, life is meant to be experienced.

When you “make sense” of something, you end up in your head. But if you’re “experiencing” something, that’s another story.

And that’s where the Avatar course comes in, because what you experience in life, and the quality of those experiences comes from you.

It doesn’t come from...

The last Avatar® Course of the year is coming sooner than you think.

Time is precious. Every moment of every day, each of us has the opportunity to create something amazing, to contribute something life-changing, to become someone extraordinary.

But, how? How do we set a new course, overcome obstacles, tap into our greatest potential? How do we overcome inertia, inspire ourselves (and others) into action, and leave the world in a better place?

The Avatar Course can help you find the answers.

The Avatar Course is a set of tools that will empower you to live up to your fullest potential and create reality deliberately. And yes, Avatar training will also help you make the world better.

Join us for the last Avatar Course of 2016 in Orlando, FL on October...

Today, I want to introduce you to Avatar® Mini-Course #2 entitled, “Insight: Belief Management.” (See a previous blog called “Mini Course #1” for more information about Harry Palmer’s Avatar Mini Courses).

Beliefs are the thought forms through which we interpret, interact with, and create reality. Each of us has our own unique set of beliefs that you could call a “blueprint.” This blueprint is the subject of the “Belief Management” mini-course. The exercises and readings in this mini-course will help you make the connection between your beliefs and your experiences. The expected results include new insights and an increase in personal responsibility for the conditions and circumstances of your life.

To obtain a copy of the “Insight: Belief Management” mini-course,...

Does your creating ability need a little tune–up? Are there areas of your life that you don’t feel source over? Could your will power use a boost? Are you unsure of your direction in life?

These are some of the topics addressed in Harry Palmer’s Avatar® Mini-Courses. The Avatar Mini-Courses contain ideas and exercises that will teach you new things about life and how to get the most from it.

There are seven Avatar Mini-Courses available to the general public. Each Mini-Course focuses on a different aspect of consciousness, e.g. Attention, Will, Beliefs, and Goals. The exercises contained in the Mini-Courses are experiential and self-instructive, though it is also highly effective and pleasurable to be guided through them by an experienced Avatar Master. Whichever...

Avatar is a self-evolvement course that teaches the art of living deliberately. It’s based on the simple truth that thoughts create beliefs and beliefs create reality. So, the easiest and most effective way for a person to change their reality is to get control of their thoughts and deliberately examine their beliefs. And that’s what the Avatar course is about – It’s a set of tools for exploring and changing consciousness – in order to change reality.

The aim of the course is to bring a person to an experiential awareness that they are the creator of their life experience, and teach them tools so they can create things differently if they decide to.

The Avatar Course takes place over 9 days. It’s divided into 3 sections.

Section 1 is called ReSurfacing. It’s about...

What you believe has consequences in your life. Pretty much everybody gets a sense of that — seems like it could be a useful idea.

Let’s explore some specific examples, and compare and contrast a few differing beliefs, and see what we can learn.

For instance: what if you discovered you held the belief, “life is hard”. If you have that belief, that’s the experience you’ll create in life; things really would be hard. Can you feel that?

What if instead you had the belief, “things always work out for me”. How would that feel? Interesting…

What if you had the “life is hard” belief, but you’d rather have the “things always work out for me” belief? Are you stuck with the beliefs you already have? Not if you have the Avatar tools to use. The tools are...

Most people who think about the deeper things agree that the purpose of life is to open up to a broader perspective. This is often called a “spiritual awakening”, or just “waking up”. Waking up implies that a person has moved beyond their current understanding of how life works to a bigger picture they previously weren’t aware of. So they’re “waking up” to a new level of consciousness and the possibility of new realities.

One of the most amazing results of the Avatar Course is that students actually learn how to do this; they learn a set of tools that allows them to wake up to a level of awareness beyond what they’re currently experiencing. Avatar students quickly see that their own beliefs and judgments create what they’re experiencing, that there’s not an outside unchanging...

We’ve become a culture that’s obsessed with locks, of all sorts. Safety, privacy, cyber-security; all have become a focus of attention — have you noticed? And yet, the better our locks get, the better the burglars get. The better our email security gets, the better the hackers get. The more we try to protect our personal information online, the better the cyber-thieves get. Curious…

Trying to prevent bad things from happening may be a good model in some areas of life, but not for your consciousness. Many people have the idea that they need to keep things locked away, not share anything, hold tight to their feelings and thoughts, not be real. And when they do that they appear to be frozen. Actually — they are frozen…

Your consciousness is incredibly...

The Power of Will.

Happiness is an inside job.

Do you ever find yourself wishing things were different so that you could be happy? Only a fool waits for the world to make them happy. What if you could create and experience happiness no matter what is happening? Would that interest you? Abraham Lincoln said, “Most folks are about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”

In our previous blog, we went over Action Four of the Ten Actions You Can Do Today To Start Taking Back Your Life, and today, we’re introducing Action Five which demonstrates and develops the ability to “make up your mind” deliberately.

It’s easy to get stuck in a pattern of worries and thoughts, but our Avatar workshop can help you break out.

Life is full of worries. While you can play a part in addressing some of these worries, many of them are simply out of your control, and nothing good can come out of dwelling on these kinds of worries.

Chances Are, You Do Many Things Out Of Habit Or Unconsciously.

Whether your habits are a part of your morning routine, like driving to work, making your daily cup of coffee or brushing your teeth, or you have nervous habits, like tapping your fingers, biting your nails or playing with your hair, there are probably many things that you do in life that you don’t even give a second thought to. While these unconscious behaviors aren’t always unhealthy or negative, making them deliberate instead of unconscious can help you gain insight into your life and improve your self-control.

You have magical powers.

Did you know that? I’m not kidding…

All of you – all of us – every being on the planet… magical powers.

Have you ever had a situation where you decided to really go for something and you set out to accomplish it and it happened? Didn’t that feel amazing?

I had times like that, when everything happened magically; I accomplished my goal – and I thought, now I can always create whatever I want.

Sadly, the next 3 times I tried to create the magic there was no magic — only my mind trying to find excuses for not succeeding…

What this told me was that I didn’t have the skill or knowledge to create consistently. So I set out in search of that skill and knowledge – and discovered the Avatar Course.

I searched through many...

Focus Is Rare, But It Is Incredibly Important.

This day and age, focus is a rare thing. Many of us are so busy multitasking and trying to keep up with our busy schedules that we almost never have time to really focus on anything.

Take The First Step To Taking Back Your Life.

If you can gain control of your mind, you can gain control of your life, and the Avatar Course teaches you how to do just that. The founder of Avatar, Harry Palmer, has a booklet called, “Ten Actions You Can Do Today to Start Taking Back Your Life,” and the first action is: “Take a walk, notice something and decide how you would describe it.”

The human will is an incredible tool.

When successfully employed, the will makes us victorious in our endeavors. But, from lack of use, it can get rusty and fall into a stupor. When the will is asleep, we allow (or in some cases, ask) the world around us to tell us what to do. Awakening and exercising your own will is the first step in taking back your life. Every decision you...

It’s not just “what” you believe, it’s “how” you believe that makes the difference.

What does that mean?

What you believe, what you REALLY believe, has consequences in your life. This is sometimes obvious, sometimes not; but it’s true. Your beliefs, expectations, and judgments – the ones you know about, and even the ones you don’t know about, create the experiences you have in life.

Your beliefs create a filter through which you view and interpret what’s happening. Some beliefs are helpful, meaning you like the experience they create; some beliefs are not helpful.

For instance: feel the difference between believing “life is hard” versus “everything always works out for me”.

In the ReSurfacing Workshop, the first 2 days of the Avatar Course, you will...

Are you ready to change your life?

Then you’re ready for ReSurfacing®…

ReSurfacing is a 2-day stand alone workshop by Harry Palmer that will introduce you to the Avatar® tools, and show you how to start exploring your own consciousness. It will begin to answer your questions about why you make certain “unusual” or self-sabotaging decisions, why certain situations in your life keep repeating themselves (positive and negative) and teach you how to move forward in your self-evolvement.

It’s non-confrontational, very insightful, and more fun than you can imagine. There are 2 opportunities coming very soon — and you’re invited.

Beliefs ~

Finding them, feeling them, keeping them, changing them.

What you believe has consequences in your life. What does that mean? Your beliefs, ideas, and judgments – the ones you know about, and even the ones you don’t know about, create the experience you have of life.

They also create the filter through which you view and interpret your experiences. Some beliefs are helpful, meaning you like the experience they create; some beliefs are not helpful.

But who decides which ones are helpful, and which ones are not? YOU do. The Avatar Course is about YOU…

Let’s explore some beliefs a person might have, and then let’s feel whether they’re helpful or not.

A person might believe:

We just returned from the Annual Avatar Wizard Course held in Daytona Beach, FL. For 13 days, participants from 50 countries came together to take greater responsibility for ourselves, each other, and our planetary civilization. Several thousand of us joined together to assist in moving our planet and it’s inhabitants toward greater connection, understanding, tolerance, compassion, and world peace. It was truly an enlightening adventure, full of hope for our planet. If you would like to join in and be part of the wake-up crew, I invite you to take part the Avatar Course and the Master Course this year, and then join us at the next Wizard Course in Daytona Beach, FL Jan 31, 2017.

Avatar is a self-empowerment course that awakens in people a higher level of awareness, and from that place, teaches people a set of tools for creating and dis-creating beliefs. You could call it a belief-management technology. And it’s all based on the simple truth that what you believe is what you will experience.

Since 1987, the course has been taught in 70 countries and translated into 20 languages.

I came across Avatar 25 years ago, at a time in my life when I was looking for answers. I’d been divorced, remarried, and afraid that my second marriage was going in the same direction, and I didn’t know why, or what to do about it.

So, when my husband decided to take the Avatar Course and said he’d be away a week, all my fingers and toes crossed in the hope that this...

Have you heard of Avatar?

Here’s some background: in 1987 an Educational Psychologist named Harry Palmer outlined an intriguing set of mental procedures that could be easily taught to just about anyone. The amazing thing is that when these procedures are done in a specific order, they become a combination that unlocks the secrets of human consciousness.

In the 9-day Avatar Course, you will discover the unique combination to unlock your consciousness, and you’ll learn how to use Avatar to reach your highest potential in life.

Then you’ll take the Avatar tools home with you so that you can continue to deliberately create experiences that align with your goals and life purpose – unless for some reason you don’t want to do that… (smile)

In 1986, a teacher named Harry Palmer created The Avatar Course. That same year he founded Star’s Edge International, the seminar management corporation that supervises the delivery of the Avatar Materials. Harry’s writings are a profound contribution to the growing body of knowledge, exercises, and processes directed to self-improvement. Many individuals and companies in the personal-development industry have adopted his ideas.

Harry Palmer dresses simply, lives simply, and remembers to open the door for the ladies. He looks at you steadily when you talk, and you get the feeling that he is interested in what you have to say; he is. In sharp contrast, he is also the CEO of a rapidly growing international corporation and the unexpected inheritor of a prestige that once belonged...

A belief is a filter. It’s a tuning mechanism in consciousness. And when you observe or interact with life through a particular belief filter, only certain information gets through to you — the information that’s aligned with the belief you’re looking through.

Here’s a good analogy: when you have your TV tuned to NBC, you’re just not going to observe any shows on CBS. No matter how hard you try…

You can go to therapy; you can join a support group; you can take assertiveness training; you can even buy a high-tech multi-channel satellite disk. But no matter what you do, if you don’t change the channel, you”ll still be watching NBC. No matter how frustrated or sad or angry you feel, CBS will not manifest in your universe.

The tuning and filtering mechanism in your TV...

My childhood memories include several instances in which I was scolded for a certain “willful” attitude that I displayed. The scoldings usually included the comment, “You did that deliberately, didn’t you?” The consequences for being willful and deliberate were not pleasant. I came to learn that deliberateness was not good in a “good boy”.

Of course, I didn’t stop doing the “deliberate” things. It’s just that, when questioned, I denied them. And afterwards, even though I generally enjoyed these creations, I felt bad and guilty, and took no responsibility for them.

So, as childhood continued, a trend developed. I became more analytical and thinking oriented, and began to experience less. (I spent more time in my head, and less in my heart.) I’m not saying my parents set out...

Okay, it’s time to let it out. Time to finally reveal the truth that I’ve kept hidden, locked away inside me. The truth is — the Avatar Course ruined my life. That’s right, you read correctly. It’s not a typo. Avatar ruined it all.

There I was, 39 years old, with a whole set of belief systems that had me so tightly in their grip that I couldn’t even see them — and a long, dramatic story about why life wasn’t working that I just loved to tell.

Don’t get me wrong, I was doing pretty well. I had my own company that was respected in its field; I was making lots of money; I looked pretty good, was married, owned property and other “stuff”; set and attained goals; was in touch with my spiritual nature, etc.

Most people judged me a success…maybe even a role model. But I...

Enlightenment is a word with a lot of buzz around it. My dictionary lists the synonyms for enlighten as “to educate, inspire, perfect (v), etc.”

But for those of us who’ve walked a spiritual path, enlightenment goes beyond that. That definition isn’t in the dictionary; but for me it included an intuitive knowing and speaking of the truth, and being free from ignorance and illusion. Something like that. But it went even further.

Enlightenment seemed like something that someone else bestowed upon you. You somehow meet some being who’s enlightened already, who then looks into your eyes in a certain way or whacks you with a stick or laughs in just the right way at just the moment that you’re ready! And then what? Some transcendent state of awareness occurs that catapults you...

I often forget how miserable I was before I did Avatar. No matter where I looked, things looked pretty bleak. That was in 1990. Don’t get me wrong; just because I was miserable doesn’t mean I was a failure. I was pretty successful according to worldly standards; my wife and I owned a business, made good money, had some real estate, went on trips and all that. But I felt very separate and alone, and I didn’t appreciate how good my life was. You know how some people notice a glass and see it as half-full and others see the same glass as half-empty? I’d notice that the glass was dirty or cracked, and I’d want to know who was responsible. Yes, I was quite skilled at seeing what was wrong, and very quick to point it out.

I wanted to make major changes in my life, and right from the...

Just in case you don’t know what I’m referring to, a computer virus is a ‘rogue’ program that’s covertly introduced into unsuspecting computers — and then it infects and sabotages them in some way. The damage could be anywhere from a “prank” (like a flashing joke or a strange message on your screen), to a very serious consequence (like totally crashing your system and erasing all your data). More sophisticated virus programs can even take over your email Address Book and self-replicate and send copies of themselves to all of your contacts in an email message that appears to be from...

The Associated Press recently released a survey showing that we are less patient this year than last year. In fact, our tolerance level has been steadily declining year after year since the early 1980’s. The most current data shows that 5 minutes waiting on “hold” on the phone, or 10 minutes spent waiting in a line stretches us to the limits of our patience.

Those are the survey results, but what about you? How do you feel when you’re kept waiting? Most people don’t like it. Yet ironically, at the same time that we’re becoming less patient, we’re encountering more situations than ever that call for patience.

Lines at the gas station are getting longer, traffic is moving slower, delivery times are increasingly unreliable, and repairmen no longer even give you a time, they...

“In order to make a change in the world,

we need to start changing ourselves.”

Harry Palmer

That’s what the Avatar® Course teaches, how you can make changes in your own consciousness and affect a positive outcome in the world, as well as your own life. It’s a win-win-win situation. It’s what we’re here for.

If you feel ready to explore this expanded level of consciousness, if you’re ready to accelerate your evolvement to higher awareness — the Avatar® Course is ready for you. There are a host of reasons to do Avatar®, here are just 3:

First: the Course is experiential. You get results by doing the exercises, not just reading them or thinking about them: and you will get results. The Avatar® Materials have been tested and proven to work by well over 100,000...

Before you take on the world, you need to master your own mind. The Avatar® Course will teach you how to do that. Avatar is a set of practical, effective, and powerful tools that will allow you, in a very short time, to identify and change the conclusions, decisions, and agreements that are shaping your life.

It’s not what you think, it’s how you think.

  • The Avatar Course reawakens your own natural ability to manage your consciousness by managing your beliefs. We’ll send you a Free Info Pack that will show you how to:
  • Achieve conscious awareness and gain control of your mind, and your life.
  • Experience a quiet mind, clarity of will, and focus.
  • See your beliefs for what they are, and how they are creating your current life...

Are you looking for a quick fix?

Would you choose comfort over the challenge of a stretch?

Do you like the idea of following in someone else’s footsteps?

Does being bopped on the head to achieve enlightenment appeal to you?

Do you want others to help you make decisions

and advise you on how to live your life?

Do you need someone else to be accountable to in order

to follow through on what you say?

Avatar® is NOT for You.

But,there is Hope!

Harry Palmer, author of the Avatar® Materials,

gave a talk in Orlando in October 1995.

He spoke about how a person could know

if Avatar® is right for them.

Here is what he said:

  • “Would you like to increase your understanding of life?”
  • “Would you...

Have you ever lost something?

It’s there,

But how aware are you?

Where is your attention?

This isn’t “breaking” news – but it’s timely and relevant.

It was Christmas morning and we had our traditional exchanging of gifts. As always, my husband outdid me and presented me with a beautiful pair of jade earrings, handmade by a friend.

I slipped them on and giggled with delight. We picked up the wrappings and cards that we’d strewn across the floor and headed for the kitchen to discard them. I opened a drawer to find candles to decorate the table, went back to the living room to light a fire in the fireplace, and then headed off to the bedroom to dress for the day. A few hours later, as I passed by the hallway mirror, I stopped to admire my new earrings...

“An adult is one who has lost the grace, the freeness, the innocence of the child,

who is no longer capable of feeling pure joy, who makes everything complicated,

who spreads suffering everywhere, who is afraid of being happy, and who,

because it is easier to bear, has gone back to sleep.

The wise man is a happy child.” Arnold Desjardins

The next Int’l Avatar® Course starts April 4th in Orlando, FL!

The Avatar Course will teach you to explore your consciousness and discover the beliefs you’re currently operating through. You’ll decide which ones you like, and which ones you might want to change. Then, based on your decision, the Avatar tools will allow you to create new beliefs and ‘discreate’ the ones that are limiting you.
