I came to love you. Love

St. Germain:

"My Dear Beloved Children of the Light! We are so grateful to find an opportunity to voice to you that which is within the Heart of Light; for if you have not thought of it in this way, do so now. Remember your Heart, while to the human sense seems physical, is really a Heart of Light! My Heart – every Ascended Master’s Heart, is a Heart of Light in Reality. Yours is a Heart of Light in It’s Expansion!

You will grow as a CLCS member each month as you:

infuse new creativity into the major areas of your life (i.e., spirituality, mental focus, physical wellbeing, prosperity, relationship fulfillment, positive belief systems...),

gain expertise with an dynamic set of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual tools from which to choose on a daily or as needed basis,

receive feedback and guidance from veteran trainers and healers in their fields, 

strengthen confidence from the support of and bonding with a like-intended local and an international community 

definitively upgrade the quality of your life. 


CLCS provides the foundational principles of breathwork training and hours apply directly to TI electives required for Level 3 Certification.



Goals for the CLS are to:

  • Infuse CREATIVE THINKING into major areas of life purpose through heart centered analysis, mental mastery and effective goal setting, 
  • Understand and MASTER THE BODY as an energy conducting system, means of communication and product of one's thoughts,  
  • Work effectively with prosperity principles including earning, spending, saving and investing, LIVING WITH ABUNDANCE in all you do. 
  • Recognize major psychological and emotional PATTERNS IN RELATIONSHIPS and apply creative thought principles to change, 
  • Address psychological factors which undermine SPIRITUAL FULFILLMENT including birth trauma, parental disapproval syndrome and the unconscious death urge.


How it works:

  1. We meet once a month with our local group (2 hours) and our international group (2 hours) immersing ourselves in the highest quality life changing work on a specific topic.
  2. We do experiential exercises and learn new tools each seminar for life change.
  3. We have an optional Mid-Month Meeting (2 hours between Sunday meetings) for review the monthly topic and doing group breathwork.
  4. We form partnerships, small interest groups or use a WhatsApp group to share progress with our life work.
  5. We acknowledge the positive changes we have made and quality of affirming relationships we have gained through keeping this commitment to ourselves and our planet.
