The greatest thing you will do in your life is learn to wrap yourself in the warmth of your suffering.

This Sunday you have that opportunity. Each of our 1,000 folded paper cranes can become 1,000 griefs set free. 1,000 failures celebrated. I urge you to bring that loving intention with you, whether it's with a list of things you have been carrying, or just making your body available to reveal where you have been wearing unresolved tension. 

The selection of paper, each folded crease, the very way your fingers touch the life you are creating, hold them with the lens of loving transformation. If dealing with a crippling disease or death of a loved one, you may need to fold several (SEVERAL) cranes to finally find some gratitude and authentic loving respect for what has formerly created such pain in your mind and body. 

But remember, it's the process, not the product that transforms us. So release your expectations and let this ancient tradition bring lightness and ease to your soul. 

Happy New Year!

As a reminder, our fees are changing as of January 1. Because of the holiday, I have been delayed getting to some of your accounts, but I will get there! Remember, we have a couple coupons to use once January 1 rolls around. Please reply to this email if you would like some assistance.

If you want to make the edits yourself from home, 
you can use the coupon code NEWDEAL15 to receive 15% off ANY ONE membership or package when you check out. Any of them. Just type it in the "coupon code" box before paying.

And if you want to stock up on several months worth at a discount, you can use the coupon code GETAHEAD10 for 10% off any quantity of monthly memberships or packages. (So, for example, you could pre-pay for 4, 5-class packages with a 10% discount! I can help you make sure the expiration dates spread out.)


BOTH OF THESE COUPONS ARE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY BUT WILL EXPIRE FEBRUARY 1ST.
 PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU SIGN UP FOR A NEW PLAN BEFORE YOUR OLD ONE EXPIRES, YOU WILL BE DOUBLE BILLED.
Do not fear, I can help you.

Final Thought:

As Sam and I were flying home from Oklahoma this week, we gazed out over the woods of North Carolina, the buildings and houses and rivers that have carved into the sweet earth. I asked Sam, "What do you think it's all about? Why do you think we're here?" After just a moment she answered,  "to dance."

I smiled and said, "I think I have to agree with you there, kiddo."
