Chanting and Meditation on Wednesday, December 2, 16,
2009 7:00PM-8:30PM at the Manorville Center, 1 Marilyn
Street, Manorville, NY 11949. We have the inherent
ability to find peace and contentment within ourselves. We
must realize that lasting contentment is not derived from
our short lived associations or possessions. We also must
realize that we all have that potential to find lasting and
stable happiness. It is said that all happiness, ordinary
and sublime, is achieved by the understanding and
transforming our own minds. The methods for achieving this
can be practiced by anyone, anywhere, in any life style. It
is possible for anyone who practices meditation, even for a
short time every day, to achieve happiness. Meditation is an
activity of mental consciousness which can take many forms.
You can meditate through prayer; by communicating with your
inner wisdom; or by concentrating on a single-pointed mantra
or object. Each technique has a specific function and
benefit, and each is part of the framework that can bring
our mind to a realistic view of the world with judgment.
A Meditation Session
• Theme - I pick a theme for every session (often channeled
to me)
• Creating of Oneness - Open with simple chants to bring
everyone into a vibration of oneness
• Positioning the Body - Each person finds the most
comfortable position, sitting or prone, that allows for the
spine to be straight
• Breathing - Through breathing techniques we bring the mind
and body together
• Guided Relaxation - First starting at the feet then moving
through the body we focus on relaxing each muscle group
through the body to bring about a state of deep relaxation
• Mantra - A Mantra is recited with each breath to help
block out the mind chatter
• Guided Meditation - Once focused, I then lead the group
through the meditation using the theme
• Close - The Meditation is closed with a chant
Everyone is encouraged to bring this good experience into
their daily life. To watch their mind carefully, be aware
and try to deal more skillfully with lives issues. For more
information and/or to register please call Rita at
631-878-8228 or reply at

Ten Behaviors of Managers Who Excel In Tough Times
Presented By HSC Workshops on Monday, December 14, 2009
8:30AM-3:00PM (Lunch 12:00PM-1:00PM) at the Holiday Inn,
3845 Veterans Memorial Parkway, Ronkonkoma, NY 11779. A
conference to strengthen the effectiveness of managers &
supervisors who work in non-profit organizations. A dynamic
course filled with practical, realistic strategies you can
use immediately. Management is a demanding job under the
best circumstances. During these tough economic times, the
tasks of management are especially difficult, particularly
for those working in the non-profit sector. With fewer and
fewer resources, the role of management can seem
overwhelming, requiring you to juggle multiple priorities
and demands. You must be able to help staff deal with
constant changes, budget cuts, staff reductions and wage
freezes. This is in addition to the normal responsibilities
of performance management, delegation, team development,
coaching and conflict resolution. You balance the roles of
leader, coach, cheerleader and score keeper. And do all this
in the midst of constant changes and shifting priorities.
You may feel overwhelmed as a supervisor or manager. Perhaps
you have had little or no training in how to be a successful
manager. Maybe you want a refresher course on management
covering all the latest information on essential management
strategies. Join us and let us help you learn to excel as a
manager. This one-day, fast-paced, comprehensive seminar
will provide you with the knowledge and, most importantly,
the skills to improve the productive work of your staff. We
will emphasize how we accomplish the same job, or even more,

Chanting and Meditation on Wednesday, December 16, 2009
7:00PM-8:30PM at the Manorville Center, 1 Marilyn Street,
Manorville, NY 11949. We have the inherent ability to
find peace and contentment within ourselves. We must realize
that lasting contentment is not derived from our short lived
associations or possessions. We also must realize that we
all have that potential to find lasting and stable
happiness. It is said that all happiness, ordinary and
sublime, is achieved by the understanding and transforming
our own minds. The methods for achieving this can be
practiced by anyone, anywhere, in any life style. It is
possible for anyone who practices meditation, even for a
short time every day, to achieve happiness. Meditation is an
activity of mental consciousness which can take many forms.
You can meditate through prayer; by communicating with your
inner wisdom; or by concentrating on a single-pointed mantra
or object. Each technique has a specific function and
benefit, and each is part of the framework that can bring
our mind to a realistic view of the world with judgment.
A Meditation Session
• Theme - I pick a theme for every session (often channeled
to me)
• Creating of Oneness - Open with simple chants to bring
everyone into a vibration of oneness
• Positioning the Body - Each person finds the most
comfortable position, sitting or prone, that allows for the
spine to be straight
• Breathing - Through breathing techniques we bring the mind
and body together
• Guided Relaxation - First starting at the feet then moving
through the body we focus on relaxing each muscle group
through the body to bring about a state of deep relaxation
• Mantra - A Mantra is recited with each breath to help
block out the mind chatter
• Guided Meditation - Once focused, I then lead the group
through the meditation using the theme
• Close - The Meditation is closed with a chant
Everyone is encouraged to bring this good experience into
their daily life. To watch their mind carefully, be aware
and try to deal more skillfully with lives issues. For more
information and/or to register please call Rita at
