Take the Brakes Off! - Get the life you want - feeling your new life - By Marion Nixon

Sixth of Six Thursday Evening Workshops – The cost listed is for all six workshops facilitated by Marion Nixon. Should you not wish to attend all six workshops, they can be payed for individually. The cost for this would be R250.00 per workshop.
About the course:
Are you feeling trapped, stuck in a life that’s too small? You know there is more to life, except you never seem to get there. There’s more that you could do, more that you could be… life should have more meaning and less struggle. Perhaps you’re not sure what ‘more’ would look like. I lived for many years with that inner dissatisfaction and after much frustration and struggle I found how to take the brakes off my life. Now I love showing others how to set themselves free.
In this course you will learn to release the blocks that hold you back from being fully yourself and from living life the way you want to.
Week six: Living what you want – feeling your new life
Don’t think of a green car. So what picture did your mind give you? A green car, because your brain is showing you what to avoid! Whether you focus on what you want or what you don’t want, your brain will show it to you because there’s a part of the brain that filters what we perceive according to what we tell it is important to us. Our subconscious brain does 95% of our thinking so it is a strong influence on this filter. When we focus both our conscious and our subconscious minds on what we want, we see many more opportunities that can lead us there.

The workshops are practical, interactive, and can be done as a course (to really change your life) or individually.

Creative Field Transformation Circles
​What is the Creative Field ?

A Global network of people committed to the evolution of consciousness.
A Field of collective awareness of the transforming, healing spirit of Love which is inherent to all people.
A context for engaging with other people in our individual awakening, learning and service.

The Opportunity :-

– to connect with people who are about this work globally
– to explore how The Creative Field works in human awareness and experience
– to offer and receive support for the service we each offer to other people
– to extend the profound healing influence of the universal spirit of love.
– to change your experience – change the world !

The programme is structured so that people may participate at various levls. The key element, at whatever level a persons participates, is intention. The intention of The Creative Field is to create and participate in an ever-expanding field of love. Our premise is that this dynamic is the most potent factor in the evolution of human consciousness and in the future of our planet. We do not pretend to know how the world should transform. But we know that this world, and all its inhabitants, has the greatest opportunity for fulfillment as there are people who welcome their own core spirit of universal love which is the core spirit of Planet Earth. So we follow this spiritual formula : Let love radiate without concern for results.

At our most elemental, we are not a chemical reaction, but an energetic charge. Human beings and all living things are a coalescence of energy in a field of energy connected to every other thing in the world. Lynne McTaggart. The Field.

Howard Goodman
Having awakened to the power, purpose and work of true identity, Howard’s mission is to assist individuals and groups embrace true identity and awaken to the wisdom and intelligence of Universal Being in everyday living.

Fifth of Six Thursday Evening Workshops – The cost listed is for all six workshops facilitated by Marion Nixon. Should you not wish to attend all six workshops, they can be payed for individually. The cost for this would be R250.00 per workshop.

In this course you will learn to release the blocks that hold you back from being fully yourself and from living life the way you want to.

Week five: Response-ability: releasing the brakes on thriving
Responsibility is the ability to respond. Taking responsibility for our lives is not about taking on blame, shame, or guilt. It is about accepting what is so we can be free to change it to what we want instead. Without acceptance it is hard to move ahead because we keep playing the blame- shame- guilt game of excuses about why we don’t have the life we want. Response-ability enables us to take the action needed to move forward.
Week six: Living what you want – feeling your new life
The workshops are practical, interactive, and can be done as a course (to really change your life) or individually.

Week four: Inner self-care makes you unstoppable
If we don’t believe in ourselves, who will? What do you say to yourself? How often do you praise yourself? Most of us can do with increasing our self-esteem with positive self-talk and other forms of self-care. When we like, respect, and believe in ourselves, we can take action to move our lives forward with confidence.

Week three: Who said? Retraining your critical voice to build your confidence
Our inner critic often undermines our confidence and keeps us stuck in feeling not good enough, or not ready to try something new. It is time to re-programme your inner voice to encourage and support you. When your inner critic is on your side, it is easier to deal with external criticism with confidence.

Meditation the ‘Portal’ to inner worlds - By Diana Smith

For Personal Development Programme bookings at The Novalis Ubuntu Institute please email Blessing Makumbe at blessing@novalis.org.za or telephone 021 797 1857.
The Third of Three Tuesday Evening Workshops – The cost listed is a single evening.
Meditation the ‘Portal’ to inner worlds

The classes take place on Tuesday 3rd, 10th & 17th October, 2017 from 7 – 9pm
Do you suffer from any of the following?
Worry? Anxiety? Anger? Rage? Indecisiveness? Addictions? Depression? Insomnia? Low Self Esteem? Poor Concentration? Ill Health? Pain? Difficulty in Attracting Relationships? Negative Thoughts?
Meditation can alleviate all of these conditions and so much more.
Come and learn simple and effective techniques to create your best life ever.
Just 15 minutes per day over a period of time will change your perception of your outer world. Meditation is an accumulative effect, so the more you practice, the more profound the experience. The anxiety and fear of living in this 3 dimensional world will dissipate as your vibration rises and the mundane things that got you down in the past will not impact you nearly as severely as they did prior to starting a daily meditation practice.
The benefits of meditation are manifold. A calm mind, good concentration, clarity of perception, improvement in communication, blossoming of skills and talents, unshakeable inner strength, healing, the ability to connect to an inner source of energy, relaxation, rejuvenation and good luck are all natural results of meditating regularly.
Each week, we will talk about the benefits of meditation, listen to stories and gain a deeper understanding and importance of the breath-work. We will then do a guided mediation to practice the techniques and you will start to access and awaken your Pineal Gland (Third Eye), your Portal to Inner Worlds. Only through experiencing the energy, will you be able to understand the power of these practices and its positive impact on your life.

Almost 20 years ago I began formal training in Metaphysics, Meditation, Energy Healing, Reiki, Chakra Balancing, Bodywork, Metaphysics, Earthmagik, Space Clearing, Colour Therapy, Enneagram, I-Ching, Channeling, Tarot, Soul Retrieval, Past Life Regression, HiddenMind and Bio Energy.

In this course you will learn to release the blocks that hold you back from being fully yourself and from living life the way you want to.

Week two: Clarity sets you free from anxiety and uncertainty
In the process of getting the life we want, we need to clear the stories that keep us anxious and stressed about life. If we keep reminding ourselves of the things that could go wrong – or did go wrong in the past – we’ll stay stuck. When we get clear on what we want and what we need to get there, we change our focus and can release anxiety and uncertainty about the future.
Week three: Who said? Retraining your critical voice to build your confidence

Week five: Response-ability: releasing the brakes on thriving

Just 15 minutes per day over a period of time will change your perception of your outer world. Meditation is an accumulative effect, so the more you practice, the more profound the experience. The anxiety and fear of living in this 3 dimensional world will dissipate as your vibration rises and the mundane things that got you down in the past will not impact you nearly as severely as they did prior to starting a daily meditation practice.
The benefits of meditation are manifold. A calm mind, good concentration, clarity of perception, improvement in communication, blossoming of skills and talents, unshakeable inner strength, healing, the ability to connect to an inner source of energy, relaxation, rejuvenation and good luck are all natural results of meditating regularly.
Each week, we will talk about the benefits of meditation, listen to stories and gain a deeper understanding and importance of the breath-work. We will then do a guided mediation to practice the techniques and you will start to access and awaken your Pineal Gland (Third Eye), your Portal to Inner Worlds. Only through experiencing the energy, will you be able to understand the power of these practices and its positive impact on your life.

Take the Brakes Off! - Is it true? The Stories we tell ourselves? - By Marion Nixon
2017-10-05 19:00 - 21:00 | The Novalis Ubuntu Institute – Art Room, Rosmead Avenue, Wynbgerg, Cape Town
For Personal Development Programme bookings at The Novalis Ubuntu Institute please email Blessing Makumbe at blessing@novalis.org.za or telephone 021 797 1857.
First of Six Thursday Evening Workshops – The cost listed is for all six workshops facilitated by Marion Nixon. Should you not wish to attend all six workshops, they can be payed for individually. The cost for this would be R250.00 per workshop.
About the course:
Are you feeling trapped, stuck in a life that’s too small? You know there is more to life, except you never seem to get there. There’s more that you could do, more that you could be… life should have more meaning and less struggle. Perhaps you’re not sure what ‘more’ would look like. I lived for many years with that inner dissatisfaction and after much frustration and struggle I found how to take the brakes off my life. Now I love showing others how to set themselves free.
In this course you will learn to release the blocks that hold you back from being fully yourself and from living life the way you want to.

Week one: Is it true? The stories we tell ourselves
We all live busy lives, with many things that stress us out. We build up stories in our heads about ourselves, the people in our lives, what is, isn’t, should, shouldn’t be happening. Until we clear this and the way it makes us feel, it is hard to get clarity on what we want. To get the life we want, we have to know what it looks and feels like. Step one is recognising our stories as stories so we can focus on what we want instead of what we don’t want.
Week two: Clarity sets you free from anxiety and uncertainty
Week three: Who said? Retraining your critical voice to build your confidence
Week four: Inner self-care makes you unstoppable
Week five: Response-ability: releasing the brakes on thriving
Week six: Living what you want – feeling your new life
The workshops are practical, interactive, and can be done as a course (to really change your life) or individually.

Intergenerational Dialogues
2017-07-26 10:00 - 15:30 | The Novalis Ubuntu Institute, Rosmead Avenue, Wynberg, Cape Town, Western Cape, 7700, South Africa
The Intergenerational Dialogues Project seeks to create space for reflection, for listening and for exchange across generations. The methods used during the workshops ensure that each generation has the opportunity to express themselves, reflect on their own views and reach agreement on working together.
The Intergenerational Dialogue Project has operated without funding for the past four years. Despite this, the impact has clearly demonstrated that there is a need for dialogue between generations. The Intergenerational Dialogues Project as a model could be successfully transferred to other regions and countries on the African continent.
The Intergenerational Dialogues Project can offer creative solutions toward addressing transformation and bringing community resilience through intimate conversations as experienced by generations.
The Novalis Ubuntu Institute will host the fifth Intergenerational Dialogues Mini Conference on Wednesday, June 14th, 2017. The event times are 10:00-15:30. Registration R75.00. Refreshments and lunch are included. The Intergenerational Dialogues Mini Conference is open to the public.
