MindScape Workshop

MindScape is a weekend workshop that teaches participants techniques to tap into the powerful latent intuitive abilities of the mind, to enhance both personal development and work performance.

The brain is the most complex device known to man. How well we accomplish everything in our lives - whether simple or complicated physical or mental acts - depends on how well we use our minds.

The human brain has so-called "left brain functions" (logical thought, computation, analysis) and so-called "right brain functions" (creativity, imagination, intuition). Over the years, our society and its educational systems have focused primarily on activities that enhance the left brain functions, and thus today most people spend almost their entire waking lives using the left brain - and only rarely do they employ the more powerful right brain functions. Therefore, most people will never realize their true potential.

The goal of the MindScape workshop is to teach people how to harness the power of their remarkable right brain faculties, so they are using the "whole" brain effectively.

Once learned, MindScape techniques can be used for any application as required. Over time, through regular practice, the techniques become increasingly integrated into the users' daily lives, thus increasing their performance in areas important to them, for the rest of their lives. The secret of success is in the mind!

Benefits of MindScape include:

• Enhanced creativity and balanced thinking.
• Heightened intuition and awareness.
• Improved performance in sports, work, studies, and the arts.
• Engaging your subconscious to work for you to achieve your dreams.
• Increased mental strength and problem-solving skills
• Stronger concentration, memory and learning abilities.
• Stress reduction and relaxation.
• Better access to information and ideas.
• Offering an effective way for therapists, such as BodyTalk Practitioners, to work on clients at a distance.

Individuals, work and sports teams, and corporations could all benefit from the potent mental techniques learned during MindScape trainings. Regardless of activity, the training may provide the winning edge!

This workshop is open to all people who want to expand their minds' abilities. It is taught to public audiences as well as specialized groups such as therapists, artists, students, athletes, and business people.

How Sylvia Uses MindScape Every Day

Sylvia has used MindScape every day since she learned this form of developing the mind and accessing its power. She has accumulated considerable experience in employing the MindScape technique in a variety of applications.

As a Certified BodyTalk Practitioner, she uses MindScape in all her in-person and distance treatments. When she is working with clients, she enters into the alpha mind state and conducts the sessions simultaneously in her MindScape "healing room" and in her real-life treatment room. This approach adds depth and insight to the links that the client's innate wisdom is able to make.

Distance treatments are always conducted via MindScape. Really exciting results happen when clients are also trained to go into their alpha mind states during treatment sessions. (Some have used Sylvia's "Journey to the Magical Healing Place" CD to learn how to do this - see below.) The common experiences confirm the universal consciousness that unites us all.

Sylvia also uses MindScape to gain greater understanding in situations of a personal nature in her life. For example, when a conflict arises with another person, she invites the person into her MindScape "living room" to investigate the issues and obtain a different perspective on the problem. She is always amazed at the insights she receives, what a change it makes in her response and, more incredibly, what a positive change it seems to make in the relationship.

Another way Sylvia uses MindScape is to prepare for her many lectures and workshops. She uses her MindScape "classroom" to test out new approaches to present material and to help her fine tune her delivery. During these rehearsals, creative ideas and insights often appear. Used in this way, MindScape has proved to be an invaluable tool.

Sylvia's life is not only about work, and sometimes she uses MindScape just to relax and unwind, to refresh herself and recharge her batteries.

Sylvia is convinced that her regular use of MindScape has been instrumental to the happiness, balance and success she has achieved in her personal and professional life.

Early Bird Registration

Sylvia offers incentives of discounted training fees (if persons register and pay in full by the posted early bird deadlines) to encourage people to sign up early. Knowing the number of participants well ahead of time facilitates planning and decision-making (e.g., related to venue selection, the ordering of training materials, arranging for massage tables) - particularly important when Sylvia has to travel long distances to her training destinations. That's why she rewards people who commit early with a fee discount.

Sometimes classes are full by the early bird deadline, so even auditors/monitors may want to register early. In some cases where classroom space and/or student numbers are limiting factors, there may be a cut-off date after which auditors will no longer be accepted.

Also, for people who require accommodations during the trainings, it is a good idea to book at least a month ahead to ensure that a room is set aside for you.

Note: In exceptional circumstances, the early bird deadline may be extended for some trainings. Please enquire with the coordinator.

Cost of Training

For the regular fees and early bird deadlines and fees for Canadian trainings, please refer to the registration form that can be accessed in the "Registration" section below.

The monitoring/auditing fee, for registrants who have previously taken the training with Sylvia or another instructor, is 25% of the posted regular fee (before early bird discounts are applied).

Method of payment:

• Money order or draft (made payable to Innate Healing Inc.)
• Credit Cards (VISA, MasterCard, AMEX)

Note: Personal cheques will be accepted from Canadians, but only if the fee is paid prior to the early bird date.

Cancellation Policy

Anyone canceling registration for trainings prior to the early bird date will receive a full refund; anyone canceling after the early bird date will receive a full refund LESS a $150 admin fee.

Journey to the Magical Healing Place CD

The mind is a powerful healing tool that you can learn to harness. The Journey to the Magical Healing Place CD gives you the means to access that incredible healing power. You will be amazed at how your body and mind will respond to using the technique on a regular basis.

Through music and visualizations, the CD leads you into your alpha state of mind-a deep relaxation between sleeping and waking.

While in the alpha state, you create a magical healing place in your mind, a place where you can engage your healing process. There are numerous ways for you to accomplish this. For example, you can invite in the healer best suited to help you now and have that person conduct a treatment session on you-or, if you are a BodyTalk Practitioner, you may want to invite a client into your healing space.

The healing place can also be converted into a creative or problem-solving place, just by adding the appropriate tools for the challenge and/or inviting in the right person or persons. For example, a writer could bring in a comfortable couch on which to interview his characters before their story is written, or a mother could ask in a quarrelsome daughter or her own mother. The possibilities for this technique are endless for artists, athletes, business people, or for individuals who want to deal with personal problems.

Once you are familiar with the steps of the basic technique, you can progress to the CD's music only track. The music cues will help you go through the process on your own. With practice, the amount of time needed to access your healing place will decrease substantially, eventually to less than a minute. You will be able to enter this state at will whenever you need to utilize the full potential of your mind. Or, at times, you may simply want to enjoy Stephen's tranquil music, to help your mind relax your body.

Experience the incredible power of your mind starting today!

Testimonials

"I use the CD when I really need to re-focus Ð because it's guided and plays for a specific period of time, I can give myself up to it and get further into that elusive MindScape of my mind. I love it and think it's a great tool, especially for people just beginning to explore the depths of their own minds. If you don't have it - get it, get it, get it!"
