Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:: it enables me to do some service,to contribute in a way to society and be grateful to God for whatever i have got

What I'd most like to receive:: "Whatever you put attention on will start manifesting in your life.Intention,attention,manifestation;that is how the universe works." SriSri
So here i am making a list of what i want to receive:
1) want to reach out to more and more people sharing with them the magic of Sudarshan Kriya i.e. to take more courses
2) material growth so that i can fulfil all demands of my son (they are never-ending though!)
3) happiness and abundance in all areas of my life...and did i mention,meeting someone special would be great too!

How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?: Read the book 29 gifts and fell in love with the idea...we do some acts of kindness but doing this with awareness would be great!

About me:: I am an artist at living - my work of art is my life !

I checked out Robin Sharma's website and spent a good deal of time there, and on Amazon reading portions of his book. Clearly I need to read the entire book....thanks for the introduction!...

This is why I love this website so much, there is such a fantastic opportunity for personal growth, in sharing inspiration, input, stories. Look forward to more of your posts ~ Best, GALfriend
