Breakthrough to Success Seminar by Jack Canfield Works!

Just like an engine, we need to tune and rev up our lives for it to work at its optimum, best condition. Life’s distractions often cause us to lose sight of our goals and move away from our dreams – and some stay long forgotten.

Even as a speaker and author, I make sure that I learn from the best mentors. Last year, I attended Jack Canfield’s Breakthrough to Success Seminar in Scottsdale, Arizona. Did my breakthrough came? A 100% YES! As long as I stay tuned to my goals and apply the learnings I gained from the seminar, nothing is impossible to achieve.

Here’s my personal testimonial on Jack Canfield’s AWESOME BTS program. To know more, visit https://ctg.infusionsoft.com/go/BTS2011/Jhet/. A registration page to the August 14-20, 2011 Seminar is also available.

10 Days of Silence: My Vipassana Meditation Retreat

Jhet van Ruyven meditating

“Everyone seeks peace and harmony, because this is what we lack in our lives… Unhappiness permeates the atmosphere around someone who is miserable, and those who come in contact with such a person also become affected. Certainly this is not a skillful way to live.”

The Art of Living – Vipassana Meditation

“When you meditate, the silence of the senses illumines the presence of God within.”

- Gurumayi Chidvilasananda

As you are reading this, I am already off to a 10-day silence retreat at the Dhama Meditation Center in Onalaska, Washington, USA. After waiting for two years hoping my name will be selected, I felt blessed to receive an email from the non-profit organization informing me that I have been enlisted  to experience this free course.

My purpose is to get my mind clear, to focus on my purpose, to feel my spirit. In the process, I am also channeling my energy on what I should like to write on my second book.

No computer, no phone, no TV, no outside world distractions. My routine, as sent by our coordinator, will be as follows:

4:00 am Morning wake-up bell
4:30-6:30 am Meditate in the hall or in your room

About Vipassana

Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India’s most ancient techniques of meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, i.e., an Art of Living. For those who are not familiar with Vipassana Meditation, an Introduction to Vipassana by Mr. Goenka and Questions & Answers about Vipassana are available. The technique of Vipassana Meditation is taught at ten-day residential courses during which participants learn the basics of the method, and practice sufficiently to experience its beneficial results.

There are no charges for the courses – not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by donations from people who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the opportunity to also benefit.* (http://www.dhama.org)

I’ll be back in 10-days!
