| Welcome |
Hi ,
I have a special request. As I was thinking about the new Gracework program last week and about personal growth in general I realized that I had been treating it much the same way as my Chiropractic practice. My approach has been mostly a "fix the pain or dysfunction of the moment" protocol. The problem with this approach is that it does not really fit the way we grow. I think of a person's life much like a thousand piece puzzle. You have spent your life placing all the pieces to create the picture that is your life this moment. Some parts of the picture you like and other parts you would like to change. What people don't see is that all the pieces fit together in a certain harmonious manner which I call tone. That harmonious manner means that whatever we do in one area of our life we do in all areas. All parts of our life are tied together with a common tone or vibration of beingness. To think of that in analogy consider that when you put a puzzle together all the pieces are on the same table surface. You don't put some pieces higher and others lower. All the pieces share a common height - the height of the table, so they will all fit together.
Well, personal growth is like trying to take some of your pieces and raising them higher than the rest of the puzzle. To create a change in some piece of your life you have to change the tone - the subconscious beliefs, expectations, feeling reactions, and desires, in order to get different results. As you can imagine, this is hard to do. Even harder is to hold on to that change since it is different from the tone of the rest of you. All the other parts of your puzzle will try to pull those pieces back into the harmony of the same old tone. If you want to change one area of your life you essentially have to change the tone of all areas of your life. Change is a global process. It takes time and consistent effort. It is like going to a personal growth college to grow up into a new and happier life. This is not something that can realistically happen over a weekend or a coulpe of weeks. A powerful weekend seminar can change your beliefs about what is possible and give you hope, but the actual power of change is a complex process; because you are complex.
I believe Gracework is the most powerfully focused growth process on the planet because it relies on the innate wisdom of your own body to know what to do when. And even though the patient study I reported on last newsletter showed some amazing changes in a very short period of time, real lasting change takes a greater commitment than one month. To stand in truth and give people a real chance at lasting change I am creating Gracework University. A university is a place of highest learning. It creates the appropriate mindset for personal growth. Your goal is to get a bachelors, masters, or PhD in the highest manifestation of YOU. It is about learning the skills of happiness, ease, empowerment, connection, understanding, and personal meaning. That means aquiring new information and applying it daily to learn these new skills, beliefs, expectations, and feeling perspectives. It is going back to school - a school of YOU.
So now to my request. I wanted to create an attractive extension to the name Gracework University such as School of something something I played with a thesaurus for over an hour to find words that would convey the feeling of lifting up one's consciousness to produce a more joyus life, but concluded that I have no idea what folks would actually be attracted to. So I am requesting your help. I have put down 2 lists of several words. Please tell me what word combinations appeal to you the most. If you could give me three combinations it will help me tally what is most popular.
So here we go:
School of Advanced
Elevated
Energized
Enhanced
Enriched
Evolved
Exalted
Expanded
Increased
Inspired
Optimal
Unfolded
Uplifted
One of the above combined with one of the below:
Living
Happiness
Fulfillment
Potential
Purpose
Consciousness
It will look like this:
School of ____________ ____________
Please send your three combinations to:
david@fairoakshealth.com
Thanks, I really appreciate it
P.S. If you have some other great word combinations send them along also.
The Gracework process will be in place to begin starting Wednesday October 1st. I am also starting work on classes to go along with the process. If you have thoughts or ideas on subjects that are relevant to you please send them along.
Good journey,
David

This article has some really clever ways to improve your focus and build more effective ways of tackling problems. If you pick up on even just a couple of these 'rules' it will make a difference in your life.
I have just finished a book that shows you how to shift yourself out of unhappiness, sadness, fear, etc by simply asking yourself five simple questions. Many of the thoughts parallel my own and I highly recommend reading the book. The workbook may be even better for practical applications. I will be reviewing it shortly. Learn more here...
Here is an online television station I found last week that specializes in talks by various teachers on spiritual and self help concerns. This may be fun or useful.
