You have the opportunity to make 2012 the single best year of your life, at work and personally. To help you truly make a difference in your life in this year, we’ve put together a list of Big Ideas that will help you.

Here’s to a fabulous 2012!

1. Risk living your dreams…dive into your life, into life itself, without wearing a lifebelt.
2. Give what you hope to receive. Smile, love and risk acts of riotous kindness.
3. Open into your emotions, all of them, even those you have forgotten, even those you have hidden so well, and fall deep into the heart of them all…and notice what you find there.
4. Listen to music that inspires you
5. Forgive everyone and everything, not least yourself. True forgiveness is one of the most healing releasing, and freeing gifts we give to ourselves.
6. Listen deeply…more to the heart than to words. Breathe and let people speak all they need to say to you.
7. Don’t take things personally. Let others empty out and love them for it.
8. Dream big, dream GINORMOUS! Live your life as if your dreams are already manifest right now, right here.
9. Go to events that inspire you

If you have ever wondered about roots of The Journey and the background of Brandon Bays, you will want to meet this man. He was Brandon’s most beloved teacher and one of the greatest inspirations of her life.

His core teaching was that the Self is already enlightened and free, which is the foundation of the Journey work. The Journey process peels away the layers of story upon story and shows us experientially the freedom and the enlightenment is already there within each of us.

Meet the man who is the main reason why Brandon takes a group of Journey practitioners on a very special pilgrimage to India every other year. It’s also why, for the very first time,  she is offering seminars, events and Journey Intensives in India in 2012.

When I was asked to give an interview about my healing from Lupus, I felt fear.

See, though I had completely healed from Lupus using the Journeywork, it had a legacy. Part of me – although less and less so still believed that if I speak of my healing I will become ill again. I noticed how the old belief system came up and the familiar words appeared in my head ‘you dare to talk of your healing and the illness is back’.

Healing physically from Lupus or any other serious disease is one thing – and healing from the energetic legacy of this disease is another. This healing requires opening into essences that are more subtle, hidden and rooted, essences that have become part of your being.

If you have a serious disease, then healing of the physical body is just the first layer of your healing. The second layer of the healing is exploring, revealing and meeting the deeper energetic legacy of the Lupus. This work is still going on. It’s a privilege, and I thank my body for the trust it has in me and my commitment.

We’ve just arrived in India where we will be spending our Christmas and New Year holidays with our beloved practitioners on our bi-annual sacred pilgrimage to the ‘spiritually charged hot-spots’ of Mother India.

This year there is additional excitement, for our team will be staying in India for a full three months (Yikes! – Yeah!) offering the Journey Intensive, for the first time ever, to a country sorely in need of liberation and healing.

So I wanted to wish you the happiest, most joyous, effortless and healing of holiday seasons.

Always when this time of the year rolls around I find I am extra thankful for Journeywork. It has healed my family relationships, opened my heart to forgiveness in a way I never dreamt possible and it allows an atmosphere of love and acceptance to be the embrace the holidays take place in – during a time which previously had been fraught with stress. So I heartily encourage you to take time to do some Journey process work so you can experience the holidays as a time of open hearted connection, warmth and effortless ease.

Many of you have heard about the healing power of forgiveness, the fastest way to release suppressed negative emotions and experience physical and emotional healing. But something not everyone knows is that true forgiveness has the power to heal much more than our own beings… 

When Israeli Jew Avi Har-Tuv travelled to a Journey Intensive in Germany (quite something in itself) he had no idea of the depth of forgiveness he would open into there…the forgiveness of a whole nation.

In this spellbinding video Avi describes, onstage to Brandon, how he forgives the Germans. This unique video allows you to experience the extraordinary power of profound forgiveness.

Have you ever thought that your inner peace is directly influencing the outer peace? That YOU – and what’s going on inside of you – is literally creating a world of peace or conflict?

Brandon was invited to address the audience in the closing ceremony of the U.N. Peace Day Celebration in Ireland. You have a chance to join the event through this exclusive video, where she explains the radical key to true peace.

You’ll learn her key lessons about forgiveness and the huge role it has in establishing, maintaining and promoting peace. The video includes her speaking very movingly about Jewish participants in a recent Journey Intensive who came to forgive the Germans and Hitler for the holocaust.

We want – we really really want! – your healing stories…

…please take a few minutes to send them to us

It’s hugely inspirational to hear about the impact The Journey has on your and other people’s lives. We absolutely love to receive these healing stories and share them with other people. We can’t get enough of them.

Sometimes these stories can seem relatively modest and sometimes they can seem absolutely spectacular – miraculous even if you judge them by mainstream beliefs. The thing is, whether they appear modest or spectacular, their impact is usually profound and very often completely life changing. It is this impact that we are most interested in, it is this that inspires us all.

So we urgently want your stories…now!

From now on we intend to share at least one of your healing stories in each of our newsletter. And not only the most spectacular ones, although do please send these in. Sometimes, though, it’s the apparently less spectacular changes that have the biggest impact.

Inspired by The Journey, Samantha Koshare Edouardes has just launched A Thousand Grandparents, a website full of healing stories to inspire children and young people…and, well, you. There are links to two wonderful stories told by Brandon and Kevin, the first stories recorded for the site

******************************************************

From my first amazing experience of the Journey I couldn’t stop talking about it. I suddenly had the tools I needed to drop my own story of suffering and let go to the great healing story, the story we all share.

In my excitement I told everyone I met about The Journey and tried to ‘convert’ them and persuade them onto the practitioner training. I bought Brandon’s book for many people in the hope it would nudge – shove – them towards the door of freedom and happiness. The truth is I was too pushy, preachy and intense about it all.

My path became clearer when a Native American Indian Chief I met asked, “How are you going to take all of the wonderful healing you’ve experienced and share it with people on a global scale in your own unique way?”

I found the answer on a vision quest – entertainment, the perfect way to reach a mass audience in a safe, non-threatening and joyous way. And so my foundation (soon to be a charity) Delight Makers was born, with a mission to bring enlightenment through joy, celebration and participation in beautiful projects… no preaching required.

A Thousand Grandparents

The first Delight Makers project, which is just launched, was created for young people and children – A Thousand Grandparents. I discovered the project within a simple question: “What gift would you give to the orphans of the world, not just those orphaned by actual physical loss, but also those orphaned culturally, emotionally, spiritually?”

We consistently refine and extend our range of products and seminars to support you in your healing journey, and our latest product Stop the Food Fight is no exception. This exciting interactive seminar has been created by Kevin Billett and focuses on something close to most of our hearts – food!

What’s more we are about to launch the Stop the Food Fight event in the UK and you are entitled to a massive £100 discount on the seminar price. Click here to claim your £100 off

So many of us struggle with maintaining a healthy weight for our size that we often use food as a comfort or crutch – from over eating and constant snacking, to junk food issues and binge drinking.

Kevin addresses all these issues and more in the seminar and – to get you started – he has also made a sneak-preview video so he can already share with you some of the seminar content. In the recording Kevin explains why the choices we make around food have little to do with nourishing our bodies and more to do with satisfying deep-seated and ultimately unhealthy emotional needs.

I want to share with you this deeply powerful, intimate story of Lisa McCorrie, who healed her life using The Journey Method. Her story is so naked and so rawly exposed that you may find yourself tearing up several times while reading it as you lived through each downfall, each challenge and ultimately each triumph, as the human soul overcomes almost impossible-seeming life circumstances.

Coming from a wrecking divorce and years of emotional abuse, Lisa’s life changed in April 2004, when she booked onto her first Journey seminar.
