Happiness is the consequence of personal effort...You have to participate
relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings.
Elizabeth Gilbert
Count Your Blessings
Let's take a day to count our blessings. They come in all forms and not always in the ways we think they should. Step into the attitude of gratitude and use that positive energy to move you forward! Using meditation, the workbook, group energy and sharing we will shift our negative thoughts to positive ones. You will look at the world differently when you step out the door. This will change your relationships for the better as well!
The secret of happiness is to count your blessings while others are adding up their troubles.– William Penn
Attendees also receive the bonus of a half hour personal follow up coaching session with Sharia to be scheduled 2-4 weeks after the class.

Experiencing The Divine Feminine
Bringing Out Your Goddess Self
Come together as women and celebrate your divine qualities. This is the time to honor that part of our selves that is innately beautiful. No matter what we look like on the outside, what kind of jobs we hold in the "real" world, or what we have been told about ourselves, We Are Divine! So for two days let us explore that softer, gentler, kinder self and allow our selves to know that this is not just a man's world. Stand firm and whole as a woman. Let yourself say, "I Love being Me!" We will explore the Divine Feminine through mediation, movement and creativity. What ever creative outlet you are drawn to we will try to provide - drawing, painting, sculpture, etc.

I Come From ... A Look Inside
We are all influenced by a lifetime of experiences, now is the time to choose which ones we will allow to continue our further shaping. This is a two day retreat in which we will look deep within ourselves seeking out patterns as well as our mental and emotional processes to find what makes us tick. Once we dig them up, we will sort them out and decide what to keep and what to let go of. This all starts with remembering where you come from; the answers may surprise you! You will leave this weekend with tools you didn't know you had. We show you where they were hiding all along.

Dancing With Your Soul... And Getting Comfortable With Your Body!
Everyone can dance! All you have to do is feel the urge. Share in a day of getting comfortable in your body: stretching, free movement, lots of great music and lots of fun! Awaken to the power of breath as an important element of movement and comfort. Together we will breathe through resistance and into joy. Be as energetic or as slow and internal as you want. This is your day to dance with your soul. Sharia will use meditation to start off the morning and afternoon sessions. Then the fun truly begins! And guess what, size doesn't matter!
(Sharia has taught Ballroom and Country Western dancing and has danced with and attended workshops with students of Ruth St. Denis. Ms. Ruth was the first person to teach sacred dancing, linking religion and spirit to movement for religious and spiritual services. Ms. Ruth also toured the world presenting sacred dance. Ms. Ruth is one of the best known Modern Dancers of the early 20th century. Sharia has also studied Swing, Salsa and did Contra dancing for many years. She has done the Dances of Universal Peace for over 30 years. Dance is personal to Sharia and she has incorporated it into her everyday life and using movement as her own spiritual practice.)

Sexual Healing ~ Exploring The Pain, Shame and Blame
This is a two day gathering for those who have been hurt through the methods of sexual assault. There is a way out of the patterning it has created in your life. No, you will never be the same, but you can heal yourself. This is an opportunity to see what is next in your life. You will find a safe place to look at what happened and to know that you are not alone. Let's learn from each other and heal within, so that we can go on living. Being ashamed is no way to live. Know that you are worthy of love and respect and that you did nothing wrong.

(Sharia has experienced sexual abuse starting at age 3 and continuing until age 18. Molested by relatives and later kidnapped by an unknown assailant she lived her early life in fear and pain. She is now happy with good relationships and surrounded by wonderful friends. Over the years she has heard many similar stories from males, females, adults and children. For some she was the first person they told; sometimes 30 years after the events. Sharia knows what it is like to be treated differently by those who know what happened to you. In some ways it can be a good thing, garnering more support, in others it can be stifling especially if people around you take an over protective stance. While many people don't understand at all and may encourage silence. Not bothering anyone with your experiences. Nothing is what you think it will be but you can still be a whole person, as she knows from personal experience.)
