The Quantum Revolution: The Power To Transform
Sunday May 20 at 5:30
Dr. Michael Wayne, Ph.D., L.Ac.

There is a quiet revolution going on right now, one that has the power to transform the world. Over the course of the coming years, this revolution is going to get louder, until the forces of change beckon it to become a tidal wave. This revolution will encompass change from the bottom up and top down, and from the inside out and outside in. This is the Quantum Revolution.
A Quantum Revolution is the awakening of the awesome power of heart and mind, for the betterment of the world. An awakened heart and mind allows people to vision more deeply and profoundly, a vision of what it takes to create a more peaceful, enlightened and sustainable world, and then right action can help to bring it to fruition.
If steered correctly, this could be one of the greatest social and cultural transformations in history, with the potential to create a peaceful, just, holistic, compassionate, positive, and sustainable society for a long time. This vision has been the dream of individuals and societies for millennia, and now it is within our grasp to bring it to fruition.
To find a way to this involves more wisdom and more evolved ways of seeing. Our problems can’t be solved from the level of thinking that created them. That way of thinking is limited, and the answers won’t be found in that way.
We are in need of both a revolution and an evolution—of thinking, of being, and of doing. We need to become more conscious, more aware, and more enlightened.
Welcome to the Quantum Revolution.
In this talk, presenter Dr. Michael Wayne will outline ways that can help us to move in this direction, and help us to realize a greater way of living that allows us to become more self-realized and enlightened.

Dr. Michael Wayne is a practitioner of Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine and Integrative Medicine, with offices in Saratoga Springs and Clifton Park. Best-selling authors Marianne Williamson and Dr. Larry Dossey have endorsed his work, and he is the author of three books – the most recent, "The Low Density Lifestyle," is available at Amazon.com. He is the founder of the Center for Quantum Revolution, and the founder and director of the Saratoga Integrative Medicine Education Network, or SIMEN.

Gaining Traction With Law of Attraction

Gaining Traction With Law of Attraction
Bethany Gonyea, MS
Biofeedback Specialist
We were born to feel fabulous. We are hard wired to feel good. So then…why are so many of us depressed, exhausted, and cranky?
We all know that our thoughts determine our experiences… then why do we still have so many challenges?

It is because we don’t understand the finer technical aspects of manifestation. Each month, we will be talking about refining our understanding of the law of attraction, how to think without resistance, how to use our subtle energies to manage our spirit much more effectively, how to move into theta and gamma brainwave states to interface our minds more efficiently with Source and co-create the lives we know we were meant to live. Although we will definitely be manifesting in the physical world, we will also be learning about traditional spiritual topics such as forgiveness, strength, vision, and love. If we are not transforming our lower natures into something better, we can never live from our sublime higher nature, the blissful part of us that always knows we are in communication with Source. Our higher state of consciousness is our true inheritance. Manifesting requires us to hold our vision regardless of circumstances, similar to the way Gandhi held his vision and manifested independence from British Rule without any violence. He accomplished the “impossible” only through his strict mental discipline of maintaining consistent focus during the most foreboding times. Manifesting requires impeccable honesty, technical skill, and arcane knowledge. We will be discussing all of these aspects and more each month.

This Month: The Power of Disciplined Focus We spend a lot of time learning about what to focus upon to facilitate our dreams, (vision boards, meditations, prayers ), but In this talk, we will be talking about How we are focusing . If we are not skilled at focusing, we inadvertantly make situations worse. In this talk we will be getting behind the camera so to speak, and review the power and perils of focusing. We will also discuss how if we want to walk into new frontiers in the future, we need to discipline oursevles to go to the frontiers of our mind without contaminating it with our past.

Suggested Donation $20.
Monthly Meditative Manifestation CD’s are offered on a suggested $5 donation basis

The Healing and Revealing Art of Energy Portraiture: feeling and seeing your soul journey
Leiah Bowden
Energy Portrait Artist

Through a guided visualization through the colors of the rainbow, we enter the sacred space of unencumbered love where we have ensconced the keys to our wholeness. We rise beyond our imagined limits, allow the eternal self to embrace and permeate our sense of “I,” and invite an expanded radiant being - self, imagined character, spirit guide, or beloved other - to become visible. We create a pastel-on-paper Energy Portrait of that being, and then write the message we receive from that radiant being. No previous artistic experience is necessary. Come and surprise yourself with what your open heart can bring home to you.

Donation Suggested $20
Materials fee: $3.00

Anxiety and Spiritual Awakening – Part 2

In the part 1 of this 2 part series, we dissected anxiety and it’s many components. We learned that we cause a lot of our anxiety by expecting life to “always be the same”. The law of natures demonstrates to us that everything is either growing or dying, nothing stays the same!!! We cause our own suffering when we expect life to be predictable, which stops the flow of dopamine in our brains and causes the discomfort of anxiety.

We also lightly discussed that as we learn to accept that all of life is in flux, we can focus on a constant stillpoint within ourselves that does remain constant…or “the same”. This stillness becomes our “touchstone” as we navigate through the storms of life. We learned that advanced masters always maintain an awareness of this inner stillness as they move through the busyness of life. In this class, we will discuss three successive forms of stillness, and how we can maintain even as we meet the demands of life.

An Introduction To The Book Of Ancient Wisdom: The I Ching- Book of Changes

06/24/2012 at 5:30, Clifton Park - click for directions
The I ching, or Book of Changes, comes to us from ancient China. Rooted in the Tao and the belief that the entire rhythm of the Universe is discernable and knowable, this system of thought holds that all possibilities are contained within its structure.

Perhaps better described as the Book of Transformation, it uses the chance throwing of sticks or coins to create a series of distinct scenarios, which point to where things are moving.....in the Universe and in your own personal journey. Knowing what accords with the times and seasons, we are better able to plan our actions, to wait for things to ripen, to retreat or to move ahead. The I Ching speaks of the infinite and the intimate with equal power and a certainty that is remarkable.

Transcending Polarity Thinking to Unity Consciousness

Many of us are aware of the unprecedented global transformation occurring right now and are ready to shift to a new way of engaging in the world; one that reduces suffering and enables sustainable, life-supportive growth for us as individuals as well as for our relationships, businesses, communities and planet. In the language of Polarities, we often find ourselves--often without awareness that we are doing so--aligning with a point of view that represents one side of a polarity (think: the 'right way' vs the 'wrong way', playful vs serious, conservative vs liberal). When we learn to engage BOTH sides of a polarity, a life-affirming Third way emerges. The Third Way emerges from connecting interdependent (or in quantum language, entangled) contrasting or opposing perspectives that we may perceive as separate and often use as a way to further polarize our experience of a situation. The Third Way arises from the co-creative dance of polarities, where both sides are seen as necessary for a shift to occur. The quality of “both yet neither” is present in this dance of opposites which, in itself, is a powerful act of co-creation. When we learn to consciously and skillfully engage both “sides” as a whole, without trying to resolve the creative tension that ensues, we begin to engage the mystery and unleash a force that propels a transformative leap to a new level. In order for humans to thrive in this new unfolding chapter of our history, we must be able to perceive and engage polarities as a creative whole.

In this presentation, you will:
- Gain a visceral sense of how the wholeness (Third Way) inherent in the relationship of opposites to each other, is at the core of the creation process in every aspect of life.
- Learn to engage the polarity process and “tap the mystery” of the generative third energy that emerges from the co-creative and interdependent tension of contrasting--or polarizing--perspectives.
- Appreciate how the dance of Polarities and the creation of a Third Way are replicated throughout the natural world
- Understand the link between creating-from-polarities and sustainability on every level.
- Recognize when and why polarities are often an unconscious draining force in our lives.

“Then came a wonderful morning when I woke up and knew that I would never have to descend again into the valley again. I knew that for me the struggle was over, that finally I had succeeded in giving my life, or finding inner peace. Again this is a point of no return. You can never go back into the struggle. The struggle is over now because you will do the right thing, and you don't need to be pushed into it.”
Peace Pilgram: Steps Toward Inner Peace

We learn at a certain point on our spiritual path that walking with God is the ‘only game in town.’ There is an end result to all this spiritual study and it is to be able to practice the Presence of God at all times. Two modern mystics achieved and wrote about their success in this endeavor, Brother Lawrence and Peace Pilgram, both of whom achieved this state. They prepared for years prior, but then spent 10 and 15 years of intense work respectively to finally reach this state. We too can reach an enlightened state in this life time. Just as sixteen other runners finally broke the four minute mile barrier after Roger Bannister accomplished what people thought was physically impossible in 1954 , we too, can reach enlightenment as soon or sooner than these two spiritual adherents…if we discipline our mind for it.

“The wind never blows in favor of a ship with no destination” Anonymous


There is a part of each of us that knows we are already enlightened, we just need to train our nervous system to allow this knowing to emerge. These classes will be offering highly technical skills to help retrain our nervous system to maintain constant communion with Source. We will also be studying enlightened beings, both those born with such knowing, and those who cultivated it.
