ANNOUNCING LYNNE'S NEW PRIVATE AND SEMI-PRIVATE WORKSHOPS BY APPOINTMENT IN PARK CITY, UTAH
These transformational workshops include: 1) Calming the rush of thoughts - a meditation sampler to find a meditation practice just right for you; 2) Dream interpretation and dream journeying; 3) Mental and spiritual techniques for overcoming pain without drugs; and 4) How to create new realities and overcome limiting beliefs.

The goal of all of Lynne's workshops is to help participants tap into their inner power and realize that they are unlimited - and to have fun! Lynne shows us how to connect with the power within - the power of the universe. She combines motivational, psychological, and spiritual techniques with the beauty of nature, quantum physics, and ancient mystical secrets to provide a transformational experience.

Shorter presentations are primarily lectures, using overhead projections, handouts, and a few short exercises. Longer workshops include a variety of experiential exercises and meditations. A series of workshops can be scheduled on consecutive days or one each week or month.

Sponsors have obtained continuing education credit for Lynne's workshops attended by these professionals: licensed therapists, psychologists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, school counselors, teachers, nurses, and attorneys.

SAMPLE EMPOWERMENT WORKSHOPS

Dream Journeying and Interpretation
Dreams are gifts from our source. They prepare us to make wiser life choices, giving us information about our health, relationships, and future. The Iroquois and other cultures believe the real world is the dream world. Dreams are a passage from the known to the unknown, a passage to a different reality from the little mind to the big mind.
In this workshop, we experience exciting dream journeys, entering the dream state and travelling to other realms while awake - in meditative states. We learn to use dreamgates and other techniques to embark on fascinating dream journey adventures. In dream journeys, we can ask for a particular dream or for specific guidance, visit a loved one, and travel to other realms and dimensions. We can meet our guides, read books in ancient libraries, and become other people and animals. We can even dream for the benefit of others. Best of all, dream journeying is fun. It allows us to play, use our imaginations, increase our creativity, embark on exciting inner adventures to fascinating new realms, and create new realities in our daily lives.
Dreams provide information to help us in our daily lives, as well as life-and-death warnings about future possibilities. They offer advice about living more fulfilling lives, healing physical and psychological problems, and avoiding health problems before symptoms appear. During dreams, we can travel to various planes of reality and receive spiritual guidance and creative inspiration. We can resolve nightmares and even change our futures by re-entering dreams and changing them.
This class also provides various ways of remembering and interpreting dreams based on psychology, spirituality, and ancient shamanic wisdom. We will also learn Yoga Nidra (Yogic sleep), a state of consciousness and powerful technique used by yogis and yoginis, Hindus, and Tibetan Buddhists, and Westerners. We will practice conscious dreaming to become aware of our dreams while dreaming, so we can change them during sleep. We will learn to reenter dreams in a waking state and find the messages in nightmares.
This workshop is a minimum of three two-hour sessions or longer.

Windows to the Light - Enlightenment, Transcending Terror, and Seeing Miracles. This workshop combines readings from Lynne's new book with a discussion and presentation of specific techniques for creating new realities, overcoming fear and pain, and experiencing the miracles that surround us.

So many people commented favorably on the workshops and your book. We appreciate your staying afterwards to answer individual questions. Your sensitivity and concern for each person was obvious and much appreciated. Several people commented that they could have listened to you all night; a couple of others mentioned being surprised and pleased that you appeared to be such a 'regular person' despite your growing fame. Your visit touched the lives of many people in our community." Dallas County Department of Human Resources, under a State of Alabama grant.

"Thank you for your wonderful keynote presentation. We had absolutely terrific responses to your presentation; some people felt they had to add additional numbers to the scale so that we could really see how high they wanted to rate you. It was very generous of you to stay for so long afterward because so many people had individual questions and comments. I was very impressed with how you responded to each and every one of them. You never appeared to be rushing anyone through, but took the time to give each of them a very thorough answer." State of Utah Department of Human Services
