The Chinese do not have a word for crisis. Instead, they merge two characters: danger plus opportunity.

We read the above symbol as: a crisis is a dangerous opportunity. What better way to describe the times we are living in. Critical? Yes. An Opportunity? Most certainly.

But in order to see opportunity, we need to know currently reality. Where we are. And, how do we move beyond the thinking that created the current crisis in the first place?

This is our focus.

As consultants we supplement your rational, well-developed high-tech abilities with high-concept aptitudes that: involve the ability to

• see current reality,
• be creative,

• detect unseen patterns and opportunities,

• use a different way of thinking to move beyond problem solving,

• in order to create new ways of living and being on the planet.

We see the relationship between intuition and the intellect as a dance. In the space between the two, an energy emerges, this is the creative force necessary for wholeness. Without the intellect, intuition has no way of expressing itself, there is no action. Without honoring and acknowledging intuition there is no music to dance to.

Our work is based on the belief that:

• The abilities that were necessary for success in the past two hundred years (logical, analytical, reasoning) are no longer sufficient for the modern world. They are still necessary, but they cannot stand alone. The abilities necessary today are those that help us see the big picture, not just a piece of the whole. As Daniel Pink states in his forthcoming book, A Whole New Mind: Moving From the Information Age to the Conceptual Age, we have to master abilities that we have overlooked and undervalued.
• There are non- ordinary states of consciousness in which the past or future is glimpsed.
• Our universe is not static, it consists not of things, but of possibilities.
• We are intimately related to everything that exists.
• Our belief systems and thoughts cause us to feel and act the way we do.
• Our mind and habits will create either barriers or bridges to a better future.
• It is important to know what we believe (our paradigms) because we live our lives according to them.

Whether we are working with an organization or an individual, we start with the premise that:

• Change is inevitable. It occurs everywhere . . .in business, education, and our personal lives. Change is also necessary for growth.
• It is possible to get a sense of upcoming change, to create and facilitate change rather than be surprised by it.
• All information . . .new ideas that are unfolding, a perception about the future, the solution to any situation, is available.
• The "whole" is more than the sum of its parts. Several members of an organization can bring forth more creative / original ideas than any one single individual. Then we have a mental launching pad to work with.

Using the Socratic method, we ask the client/groups questions (in order to bring out the information that is within them) after, or during, deep relaxation.

Our training is specifically designed to balance the intellect with the intuitive. The informal format includes guided imagery, lecture, story-telling, and video.

Participants are asked to:

• Evaluate their beliefs, and, in some instances, suspend current beliefs in favor of allowing new (Creative) ideas to emerge.
• Be creative: bring something new and original into existence.
• Understand the difference between creativity and problem-solving, which deals with pre-existing materials and circumstances.
• Practice simple exercises in subtle energy as a way of accessing intuitive information.
• Enter into a state of deep relaxation. Through natural sounds, music and guided imagery exercises participants will be asked to uncover "hidden" connections in life; discover the creative images, feelings, thoughts, and inner workings of their mind; and to develop sensitivity to their Spiritual nature.
• Recover as much of these connections and images as possible through journaling, sharing, drawing.
• Attempt to decipher what at first may appear to be their random thoughts,
• Apply the results in their life (or that of their client)
• And most importantly, discover and honor their uniqueness in this process.

Objectives: At the end of our seminars, participants will:

• Recognize paradigms that presently get in the way of their decision-making.
• Learn to expand their five senses by focused awareness.
• Find their strongest sense, discover the language of their intuition. Personal imagery and kinesthetic ability supports the decision-making process.
• Apply the tools they learn for decision-making, personally and professionally.

As facilitators, our goal is to create and nurture the atmosphere that fosters creativity and originality, and guide participants to get in touch with their own intuitive abilities. Each of us is unique. (There is only one of us in all of time.) Each of us has a purpose for being here.

When we find our purpose, and are able to express our uniqueness, we are living our potential.
