Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

That's a beautiful song and I don't think the songwriter was thinking of smoke from wildfires. I was in L.A. this past weekend attending Alexandria Brown's last ever Online Success Blueprint Workshop. It was a hoot with designer port 'o potties included and sessions lasted into the night so venturing outside after 6-6:30 pm in unknown territory was not advised. When I turned on the T.V. the local coverage was soley on the wildfires. With our incredible technology, they were up close and personal with satellite views of the dense clouds of smoke. By Friday, the smell of smoke was in the hotel hallways and by Saturday night it made it's way into the room. Looking outside it looked like a scene out of mystery thriller on a dense fog shrouded London day. The devastation was massive and the good in people outshined the few scavengers that were caught. I'll write more later in the week.

I also wanted to remind you of the special complimentary interview I'm facilitating tomorrow on The Spirit of Mo**ney/What's Your Mo**ney Story? with Marianna Olszweski of Madison Financial Management. Here is the registration link again:

A Good time Was had By All!!

That's me at my live Discover & Connect with Your Passions-the Effortless Path to Living Your Life Purpose Seminar held this past Saturday. We all had a great and challenging time uncovering what we were most passionate about. During the 3 hour seminar, the participants unlocked their top 5 passions and crafted markers to align themselves along the way.
As one participant said,"This is challenging". There were some AhAh moments. The results were clarity on what to focus our time,
energy and resources.

Yesterday marked the first interview in the 2008 Fall Consciously Living Green Teleseminar and Interview Series with Lindianne Sarno of the Sonoran Kitchen Gardens speaking on The Best in Things in Life Are Green. Below are some resources Lindianne shared along with her Starter Kit of Ideas to begin living more consciously green. Were you on the call or did you register to receive the audio? It was awesome. I took 4 pages of notes.

FR^EE The Best Things in Life Are Green Teleseminar

The Best Things in Life Are Green Teleclass & Interview with Lindianne Sarno, AB
Monday, October 20 from 1-2 PST
Tuition: no charge.
Led by: Colleen M. Crook, M.A., Certified Life Coach www.consciouslivingconnection.com

Join me and Lindianne Sarno, Co-Executive Director of Sonoran Kitchen Gardens on The Best Things in Life Are Green in this interview of the 2008 Fall Consciously Living Green Teleseminar Interview Series. She'll be talking abut food security, urban gardening, food storage, and more. This is so NOW! After Lindianne said “yes” to this interview, I read an article in Body & Soul on this exact topic. Lindianne will share her knowledge and give us a Starter Kit of Ideas so we can become more self-reliant and community connected to increase our own self-reliance and empower us in connecting more deeply with the Spirit of our Natural World. Actually, Lindianne will re-introduce us to habits and practices that our grandparents and even parents are probably very familiar with.
