The Secrets of Joy Workshop - Nov 3 – 5, 20010 - Eagle Crest Resort - Bend, Oregon

Why is joy and happiness important?

Medicine today tends to focus primarily on: drugs, surgery, genes, germs, microbes, and molecules. However, there isn’t any other factor in medicine – not diet, not smoking, not exercise, not stress, not genetics, not drugs, not surgery – that has a greater impact on our quality of life, incidence of illness and premature death from all causes than loneliness and isolation. Most people do not know what to do about it, WE DO!

Numerous studies demonstrates that changes in lifestyle can change our health. There are four areas these studies are concern with:

1. Diet
2. Exercise
3. Stress Management
4. Love & Intimacy

Diet, Exercise, and Stress Management are things you can accomplish on you own.

Love & Intimacy involves OTHER PEOPLE.

You cannot do it alone.

You have to learn to work with other people.

There is very little information how to do this, how to have more Intimacy, how to be connected, how to be satisfied with life, how to have a meaning life,or a sense of well being that is not religious base.

This is why the divorce rate would not be over 50%.

We do not know how to have the things we want the most - Love & Intimacy.

Our workshop will demonstrate how to do it.

Our Workshop is not about Diet or Exerice, it is 6 days of understand how to have more Love and Intimacy in your life.

Any kind of intimacy can heal. It's a basic human need that often goes unfulfilled in our culture. It matters not only in the quality of life, but in the quantity. It's a need as basic as eating and breathing and sleeping. When we don't know that, there are serious consequences that threaten not only our well-being, but also our survival. Studies show that people who feel isolated are three to five times more likely to die prematurely and get sick than those who don't.

This web site is about on how to increase your Love & Intimacy and improve your life satisfaction.

Have you ever wondered from makes you tick?

Why are some people always happy and other always sad? Why are some people are very agreeable and other like to argue.

For sake of argument, we call the patterns people have – Temperaments. You can call it what ever you want. Your life’s strategy, your style, your way, your nature or “just the way you are.”. It makes no difference what you call it, it exists and we can define nine Temperaments Types.

Would it surprise you to learn that you were born that way? You were born with a fixed Temperament Type. It is in your genes. You inherited your Temperament Type from your ancestors. Yes, your Temperament is fixed as you were conceived, before you even started your life’s process. It is nearly impossible to change your fixed Temperament Type, but you can learn to “manage it.”

The research from Positive Philosophy shows that 50% of your happiness is determined by your Temperament Type. That means that 50% of being loved, having Intimacy, being connected, being satisfied with life, having a meaning life, and a sense of well being is a function of your genes you were born with. But:

1. The better you “manage” your Temperament, the happier you can be.
2. The better you “manage” your Temperament, the better you will understand yourself, your family, your friends, your customers, and the culture in you live.
3. The better you “manage” your Temperament, the more successful you have with money, marriage, family, health and the society in which you.

Our genes may determine our Temperament, but they do not control our Fate. Connection is the root of sickness and health. It is what makes us well, what causes sadness and what brings happiness, what makes us suffer and what leads to healing. If a new drug had the same impact, virtually every doctor in the country would be recommending it for his or her patients. It would be malpractice not to prescribe it -- yet, with few exceptions, doctors do not learn much about the healing power of love, intimacy, and transformation in our medical training.

The question is how to have more connections? How do increase your love and intimacy? If you alreadyknew how, you would have already done it. Attendance at our Workshop will give you new methods and proven techinque to help you. The methods and techinques were developed from the research from Positive Philosophy.
