Greetings!
As many of you know, November takes Don and I to the Beauty and Magic of Peru for about half of the month. There, we will experience the culture, visit an orphange, hike the Inca Trail, absorb the richness of Machu Picchu and find more of ourselves then we know now. As a result of the scheduling of that trip, we are moving our regularly scheduled Brookfield Mary One Half Day Workshop at YogAsylum up one week to November 10th. Our good friend, Keith Varnum will also be in town that weekend offering his three day workshop with an opening evening Free Sound Healing Concert also being conducted at YogAsylum on Friday, November 9th. Don will be contributing to Keith's opening evening with the soul catalyzing sounds from his didgeridoo. So, if you really want to blast off and bliss out, join us Friday evening, for Keith's Sound Healing Concert and again on Saturday morning for a life transforming conversation with Mary at our Half Day Workshop as we wrap up the series on "Experiencing Ourselves as Creators" in Brookfield.
In December, we are very excited to be hosted by Ginny Erlandsson in her home for a Private Evening with Mary on Friday, December 14th followed by the launching of our new series, "Attaining Self Mastery" a One Half Day Workshop, also to be held in the warmth and wonder and grace of Ginny's home on Saturday, December 15th.
Other places you can find us and Mary in November and December are:
November 2 - Moon Willow Center for Tai Chi &
Wellness Arts - Crystal Lake, IL
November 7 - Abundance Center and Gallery
Glen Ellyn, IL
December 1 - Natural Path Center - Madison, WI |

Meet Ginny Erlandsson - TIV Member, Entrepreneur, Visionary, Horse (and all around animal) Lover
|
|
Bring this amazing soul to mind and your whole heart fills with love. If you don't know Ginny Erlandsson, you are missing out on one of the great wonders of the world. She is truly one of the most extraordinary people we know.
We first met Ginny at an introductory evening with Mary in Elm Grove. She walked in very gingerly and sat down as if it would save her life to do so. She sat in a crowded room throughout the evening patiently waiting for her opportunity to ask Mary a question. What we learned later, is that it was in that exchange with Mary, that Ginny completely reconnected with her belief that she was going to live and live fabulously in the richness of life and not in the illness that was pulsating through her body. In every encounter we have had with Ginny since, no matter how she is moving with challenges within her body, we are met first...in the middle...and last with her sparkling life force emanating through her eyes, her smile and her words. She lights the room with belief and possibility.
Visionary
Ginny is currently...
Ginny's vision and life is keeping her so busy that she has not had the time to articulate it for us to share with you yet. So this article is "to be continued"...
Make sure to catch our next issue to get "the rest of the story".

The Inner Vortex Membership Opportunity
|
 Excerpts from letters from Members...
I am grateful for the opportunity to give a little of my inspiration regarding the Membership and Master Mind Group.
I focus first on the wonderful Nebula pendant that I wear which is a constant reminder of the connection I have with everyone in the group. The spiral shape of the pendant reminds me that I am always protected and never alone - that I have the whole universe at my immediate call if a need arises. The Master Mind calls remind me that I am more than just human (my personality) and to see my reflection in the essence of all of life. The Master Mind sessions for me are to realize the brilliance of my whole being, the mind, the body, and the soul, and to constantly be grateful for their beauty and perfection...
Love, Trish
...I thoroughly enjoy the support of the group on the calls once per month and the messages every morning that keep me focused and remind me that this is MY life!!! I really appreciate the CD's and listen to them over and over in my car. And then there are the occasional interchanges with Mary when she writes back to answer our questions - It is ALL good!! I also LOVE my pendent. I feel very blessed to be a part of this co-creation.
YUMMMMM!!!
Pat

Exploring with Mary
|
|
Hello Dear Friends,
It is with such divine pleasure that we connect with you through this delightful venue today. The life within you that we meet with this visit is so wonderfully pure and full and ready. Immense joy is whirling it's familiar path with possibility and love. Yes, right there within you...all of the sights and sounds and pleasures of human potential and delicious satisfaction. What will you do with them? Will you give them your attention or your denial? We are knowing that these are potentially either attractive or distressing questions for you depending on how you are finding yourself in this moment. Or perhaps they are activating your curiosity. What are you curious about? What triggers your desire to explore, to stretch, to expand your current state of being? Curiosity is such a magnificent aspect. When called on...It can show up quietly, gently nudging you to pay attention, look a little deeper, listen a little more closely and discover. Or it can come in fiercely with passionate drive to open all of the doors and windows, cracks and crevices to fully realize what all there is to know, to seize, in any given moment. How often do you utilize your curiosity to open your life? Internally and Externally. Yes, indeed, first be curious about yourself. Notice what stimulates you and what leaves you disinterested and go a little deeper to learn why. Why is one matched or important to you and why is the other not? Remember, "I don't know" is not a fulfilling answer to any of the questions you create for yourself in this process. Use your curiosity (your inner investigator) and your willingness (your yes) to look behind any "I don't know" to truly know yourself well. You may be asking, "Why, Mary...why do I need to know myself well?" And we say to you, it is so you may know life and all of the opportunities and ways to move in it well. Ways that match your desires - your clearly known and passion fed desires. We would say, that is worth a few trips inward with curiosity and willingness, wouldn't you? Let us explore your willingness - your "yes" - a bit further shall we. Where do you find your "yes" most often. Is it right there at the forefront or do you, with frequency, have to find your way to it? You know, dig out a bit of debris, reach behind doubt and mistrust and RESISTANCE to find it. Do you lean on what is familiar or do you open to exploration? Remember, this discovery mission is internal first. Where are your automatic yes's and where are your automatic resistances? We are not suggesting that you say "yes" to everything. We are merely suggesting that you know why you say "yes" to some things and "no" to others. That it become a decision, clearly guided by you, instead of a reaction. And, that you come into intimate knowledge with yourself in the knowing that sometimes your "no" to something outside of you is a huge "yes" to something within you. And vise versa. This all becomes very clear when you learn the why of your yes's and no's.
Travel Well. We'll keep a light on for you.
Mary

Wow! Another year is already heading very speedingly to a close. Can you believe it? We have had so much fun this year! Looking back over the adventures, encounters, growth, new awareness, life expanding ideas, new friends and new knowing of deeply seeded friends that we have encountered kind of makes our heads spin. It also makes us very excited for what is to come!
Thank you so much for what you have brought and continue to bring to our lives and our work with Mary.
Delicious Love,
Don, Jacque, & Mary at The Inner Vortex
