Presentation
Our Professional Development Speakers for the May 2010 Meeting
were Bernice and Yoni Werzberger who spoke brilliantly on
Psych-K and using it to create prosperity in your life. Bernice
& Yonie Werzberger are 2 of only 48 certified PSYCH-K®
Instructors in the world.
They discussed the need in these challenging economic times
for aligning subconscious beliefs with conscious goals and
how crucial to success this is. They emphasized that if your
life doesn't reflect your conscious goals about prosperity,
you probably lack subconscious support for your goals. Psych-K
can help beautifully with this.
They showed how:
- Your beliefs affect all areas of your life
- Your subconscious determines 95-98% of your conclusions
and is, by far, the most powerful part of your mind.
- To effect lasting change, the subconscious mind is best
approached in a "whole brain" way.
During this lecture-demo, the Werzberger's showed you how
to uncover limiting subconscious beliefs about prosperity
and rapidly change them using the "whole brain"
methods of PSYCH-K®. You also learned of a special opportunity
to benefit both yourselves and the NGHGA at the same time.

Our Professional Development Speaker for the April 2010 Meeting
was Dr. Arden Rayne, PhD who spoke eloquently on Mind-Body
Healing. What a great presentation! She held everyone in awe
during the entire evening. She talked about the importance
of holding a mind state of more than neutrality during healing
sessions.
She explained the relationship between spiritual karma versus
physical karma and the mind and body's influence on each other
within this karmic dynamic. Allowing the universe to offer,
and you to receive the tools, guidance and information that
it has for you. She showed us how to practice an exercise
of slowing down the mind's thought processes and learning
to hold a thought for healing work. The mind versus the transcendental
mind was explored. It was an wonderful evening of hearing
something new and being able to understand and hold the highest
healing space for your clients and allowing the highest flow
of energy and information.
Dr. Rayne discussed understanding the difference between the
ego's information and divine information. She focused on trusting
divine information and accepting that everything is in perfect
order. Entertaining the thought that everything is dictated
by the universal loving mind and what do you really have control
over and what is and where is YOUR focus. Following your true
nature and accepting that which is given or not given by the
Absolute and allowing that Anything is Possible.
