Life is, in all it's manifestations
in every animate force, creative
force in action; and is the love of expression-or expressing
that life; truth becoming a result of life's love expressed. For, these are
but names-unless experienced in the consciousness of each soul. Edgar
Cayce reading 262-46
This experience is intended to assist the participant in forming the most joyous and fulfilling life experience possible. We will examine why we came to this incarnation and what we hope to accomplish during this lifetime. We will then review the attitudinal and emotional components that could possibly hinder us from reaching the life we wish. We will work with Universal Laws which are the unbreakable, unchangeable, irrevocable principles of life that operate everywhere, all the time. We will examine our lives to see if we are using the Laws to our best benefit. Lastly, we will go about the actual creation of our most precious life.
First Week-
We come into this world as very complex packages. We have our starting line to deal with - the set of circumstances we were born into. Our nationality, sex, religion, affluence, family structure, and the good and bad examples that our parents provide for us. But we also come in with a complex package of our very own. We are born with our own particular set of drives, passions, and personality traits. When we take into account what we brought into this life and what circumstances we landed in when we got here, we're very complicated indeed. With all these variables, each individual is unique, totally unlike any other person on Earth. So there is no "one size fits all" plan; we all need an individualized plan that speaks to our individual needs. We will use the Three Excellent Exercises to get to know the fascinating person you spend all of your time with from beginning to end.
Second Week -
Some of the biggest roadblocks in our way as we try to create our best
possible lives are our negative attitudes and emotions. If the way you
feel always dictates the way you act-especially if the way you feel is
negative-this is a clue that you may be bound by your emotions. Sometimes
attitudes and emotions are so enmeshed with our thought processes we
hardly realize that they exist or that they may be causing problems for
us. These negative attitudes and emotions are patterns and habits that
have become part of us through those "old tapes" in our subconscious
minds. Think of the body as directly connected with our subconscious
minds. A new field emerging in medicine called Psychoneuroimmunology
(PNI) researches the link between the immune system and brain and how
they are affected by stress, mood, and thought... So watching our attitudes
and emotions is more than just "having a nice day." It can be vital to
our continued health and vitality. In this week we will be using a variety
of exercises to evaluate our attitudes and emotions.
Third Week -
Universal Laws were put in place by divine love and they are unchangeable
and irrevocable. As you come to know them and use them, you can begin to
live so as to create more peace, joy, abundance, and understand in your life.
You come to understand how - through these laws - you make or break your
relationships, your career, your finances, and your life. As you work in
accord with them your life will become fulfilling, because your actions will
be in accord with the ways of the universe and of life. This week we will
employ techniques to ensure we are in harmony with the Universal Laws.
Fourth Week -
By now we've come to know ourselves a little better, we've examined our attitudes, and learned about the laws of the universe. With these tools we have found ways to improve our lives and to receive and utilize guidance that will help us in living our very precious life. Now we'll take a look at the technique of Creative Visualization and accompanying exercises, which will give us the skills to create our lives exactly the way we want them to be. We're creating our lives all the time without realizing it, so we might as well consciously be creating our lives. The trick is to clearly establish what we want and then apply ourselves at creating just that.
Learning Methods during the eGroup:
- Online lessons. Each week there will be a lesson written by Sherry Kulakowski about the concepts and principles to be explored during the week.
- Journaling: You will be asked to keep a journal to record the exercises assigned each week and for you to record any physical, mental, and emotional changes that take place as you do the exercises. Also you will be doing additional creative work during the last week of the course.
- Audio presentations: Some weeks there will be at least one audio-streamed guided visualization to experience.
- Instructions and diagrams: Step-by-step instructions for many of the processes will be available for downloading. There will also be diagrams to accompany the instructions in one or more of the weeks.
- Discussion board postings about your own experience: You can decide each week how much you would like to share about your experiences and what changes may be taking place for you as a result. You can also post questions that you would like Sherry to respond to or that you would like to pose to the entire eGroup community.

What's An eGroup?Your A.R.E. eGroup will meet on an Internet discussion board. This discussion board has been created especially for A.R.E. by BulletinBoards.com, a secure Internet site that makes learning online interactive and easy. In Internet terms, your eGroup is called a "discussion board", a virtual meeting room where you will join with other like-minded people and your mentor, Sherry Kulakowski, in an interactive discussion on creating your dream life.
In the virtual meeting room, you will have access to the written and audio materials prepared for you by Sherry. Every Wednesday, Sherry will post a lesson along with exercises for you to practice during the week. Posting is very similar to sending an e-mail, except that all the e-mails are viewed within your virtual meeting room. You may post your thoughts, questions, and experiences on the site for Sherry and the other participants to read and respond to. In this way, everyone will benefit from one another's experiences and insights and the coaching offered by Sherry to individuals.
Once you register for your A.R.E. eGroup, we will send you an e-mail from eGroups@edgarcayce.org
detailing how to access and navigate our discussion board for the eGroup Creating
the Life of Your Dreams. Then, you're in! You will be able to visit
your eGroup any time you desire. The meeting room is accessible 24 hours a day/
7 days a week and you may participate at your convenience from anywhere in the
world. There are no specified times that you have to be in the room. You decide
when and how often you wish to participate.
If you would like more information or to be
notified when a group is forming,
please e-mail us at egroups@edgarcayce.org.
