The Human Experience

We are all searching for answers to the most basic questions: Who are we? Why are we here? Do we really matter?

In a world fraught with hostility and violence, an altruistic group of young men endeavor to understand the true essence of the human spirit by visiting forgotten souls such as homeless New Yorkers, Peruvian orphans and isolated Ghanaian lepers. By spotlighting heartwarming stories from around the world, this uplifting documentary shows viewers that every single person, no matter his or her lot in life, is beautiful. Gorgeously filmed and masterfully narrated, THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE explores with depth and compassion what it means to be a human being.

Features insight and commentary from spiritual leaders and philosophers including: Anna Halpine, Dr. William Hurlbut, Rabbi Simon Jacobson, Dr. Alveda King, and Rev. Richard Neuhaus

Admissions

Admissions is a short film starring Academy Award® nominee James Cromwell that tells a transformational tale about what it takes to find lasting peace. Featuring an Israeli couple and a Palestinian, this modern parable is set in the Admissions Room for the afterlife. Its purpose is to start a conversation that heals.

Upcoming Class - Loving Yourself to Great Health!!


The Ultimate  Diet    LIVE IT!

Louise Hay has done it again!  

She has combined her valuable knowledge and 89 years of life experience into a new book called Loving Yourself to Great Health. 

Unlike any “diet” book you have read or tried to follow, this work transcends fads, trends, and dogma to bring you a simple yet profound system to heal your body, mind, and spirit by assisting you in gently changing your thoughts and becoming more aware of what you are putting into your body and mind and by tuning into your inner spirit. 

I invite you to join me as I facilitate six informative and fun filled classes based on the contents of this amazing book. 

  • For those of you who feel you already know all about loving yourself, you may find some helpful reminders in these classes. 
  • For those who feel that you already know all there is to know about nutrition, these classes may bring you some surprises and important reminders as we share our thoughts and information. 
  • For those of you who have never heard of Louise Hay, you are in for a treat.
  • For those who eat on the run, or those who don’t even consider food as important, these classes will definitely bring you new insights and “food” for “thought”. 
  • For those of you who hate the kitchen, you may begin a new love affair as you discover valuable and delicious easy healthy food preparation ideas. 
  • For those who love the kitchen, like I do, you will be delighted by new recipe options. 


Many of you might say, “I can just buy and read the book – I don’t need any help”.  Yes, that’s true you could, but it makes learning so much easier when we receive instruction; receive support; and gain clarity by sharing with others.

These classes are an investment in you - in your personal health journey.  In the end, it all boils down to two main factors – the thoughts you think and the food you eat. Louise Hay’s wisdom is enhanced as she has co-authored this book with two nutritionists, Ahlea Khadro and Heather Dane.

Give yourself an awesome gift for the New Year.  Start 2016 with an investment in your health.  You can afford it! You do have time! You are worth it!  You can do it!  

I look forward to sharing with you. 

Namaste, Sandra
