Discover the deeper meaning of networking in this focused, interactive presentation. Martin Brossman truly understands the art and science of building a powerful network of mutually-supportive allies, and he will show you how networking from the heart will enhance your personal mission now and in the future!

Many people think of networking as merely handing out business cards and brochures. Yet, there is a greater dimension of connecting where we can create lasting benefit for all. Martin believes in building alliances and friendships that will support your whole life. Here, he helps you acquire the ability to identify the best people who will represent you well.

For example, you can develop a connection with other business people who have clients who are similar to yours, facilitating referals to one another. Simultaneously you can build your equally important personal network made up of people who keep you motivated (rather than just make you feel good). Overall, this presentation will help you to create a dynamic, supportive, caring network structure while giving you valuable tips on developing your networking skills in a way that is natural--and beneficial--for you!

Healing Sounds Meditation
with
Denise Gregory

This month's early meditation will be led by Denise Gregory, a Reiki Master-Teacher in the Tibetan Diamond Path tradition. She has done energy work for over 10 years beginning as a certified healer with the Institute for Spiritual Development in New Jersey. Her meditations include healing sound work that grounds, balances and harmonizes.

She works with a sacred instrument, a 28" Tibetan gong which she uses for clearing and setting energy in spaces as well as working with individuals or groups. The gong has a wide range of over-and under-tones that bring depth and richness to meditation practice. Her special brand of work has now evolved into using all the tools she has been taught and given to aid individuals in facilitating their own healing. Denise is also a minister/priestess with the Madonna Ministry.

The early meditation begins at 6:30 PM. Please arrive on time to optimize the energetics of the group body.

______________________

The early meditation is held in the Ralph Waldo Emerson room of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Raleigh.

This is in the same building (Peace Hall) as the Clara Barton room, but the Emerson room is on the lower level.

If coming from the front parking lot, go down the steps between the two buildings. There's an entry door on the right side of Peace Hall. Go in this door and down the hall, and the Ralph Waldo Emerson room is on the left at the end.

If coming from the back parking lot, go up the steps between the main building, which houses the sanctuary in front and Fellowship Hall in the rear, and Peace Hall, the building to the left. Entry door will be on the left a short distance up the stairs.

Please be on time so as not to disturb the energy of the channeled meditation.
