The course is structured around several powerful concepts designed to give attendees an "edge" in the workplace. ***Get to learn...*** * **Management by the Seven Rays**: Based on the esoteric teaching that seven energies govern creation, you will learn to understand human archetypes. This provides deep insights into your own personality and those of your colleagues, helping to improve professional relationships and team dynamics. * **The Science of Life Cycles (Right Timing)**: You will be taught how to identify and leverage the natural cycles that govern life and nature. By understanding this rhythm, you can discern the right timing for actions and initiatives to align with natural energies for greater success. * **Stress & Energy Management through Meditation**: Practical, simple meditation and breathing techniques are core to the curriculum. These tools are designed to rapidly recharge the physical body and mind, dissolve stress, and maintain a sense of calm and sharp mental clarity—even when under pressure and needing to make critical decisions. * **Productivity & Efficiency**: Learn systematic ways to prioritize activities and practice "one-pointedness" to increase efficiency . The goal is to achieve more in less time with greater output. * **Personal Empowerment**: You will develop stronger leadership skills that inspire confidence. The spiritual empowerment from the practices is said to result in increased strength, clarity of goals, and dynamism to handle any business situation. * **Harmonious Work Environment**: The course provides techniques to bridge the gap between management and the workforce. By fostering mutual respect and creating a positive organizational environment, you can boost overall employee productivity and return on investment and much, much more! While the teachings are rooted in ancient spiritual wisdom, this workshop is highly practical and structured for the modern world. Participants would be able to apply what they learn with tangible outcomes that can benefit both their professional and personal lives! **👉🏻 [Register with us Today!](https://pci.jotform.com/form/261174309398464)**

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
