December 4, 2011 As many of you know, we have spent the last few weeks considering what is next for us. We are still in the process of developing our new direction, but several things are becoming clear. For the moment, we have decided we will remain in Berlin, and are in the process of looking for a new house we can take possession of in February or March. We are still open to what this house will look like, where it will be, and the possibility of a joint venture. These are choices we will make over the next few months. Our book, Deep Living: A practical path to happiness and fulfillment through honesty, courage, consciousness, and self-responsibility, is finished, at the printer, and should be available next week. Sarah is going to shift some of her focus to marketing the book, has many ideas, and is excited by this new direction. I enjoyed the process of writing the book and was constantly making decisions to not include things so the book did not become overly long. I feel drawn to continue writing. I feel I have several more books in me, and that it is time to write them, so we will continue to make time for me to write a priority. You can look forward to an announcement when the book is available for sale. Our feeling is that the book will change many things for us. I have spent much time explaining what is covered in the book to people, and I am looking forward to not having to do this as much in the future. This will immediately affect the way I give sessions. We will ask new clients who would like a session to read the book first, so they understand the context in which I work. I am also shortening my sessions from 80 to 60 minutes anticipating that I will spend less time explaining why we are doing what we are doing and getting right down to doing it. Through writing the book I have come to appreciate the importance of self-responsibility even more, and this will be reflected in how I work with people in the future. As well, we are considering putting more of a focus on shorter phone or Skype sessions to support those using the book for a personal practice who feel they need clarification or support. We have opened up a new block of time for giving sessions. We are making appointments for sessions between December 21, 2011 and January 28, 2012. If you are interested in booking a session during these dates please contact Sarah at sarah@jamesswank.org or 030 40 9999 30. We are also looking at what we want to do as far as future groups are concerned. Sarah is no longer as interested in translating for groups and sessions. We are considering using other translators, and also offering less events with translation. Our feeling is that the way we approach groups will change, and Sarah is still considering what role she wants to play in whatever groups we do. We have decided to not plan any groups until after we have found our new house, but we feel we will probably offer a training in the first half of 2012. There is an exception to this that I will describe in a moment. First I want to mention that I feel drawn to put more focus on my personal practice. Through focusing on supporting others and getting the book out, I have not put much focus on myself recently. I feel drawn to dive back into my personal practice, and I feel excited to explore where I can take it and what developments are possible. At the same time, as I have been considering what I want to focus on, my attraction to being part of a team and exploring what is possible when a group of people come together and learn to work together closely is very present in me. I have decided to create an ongoing group whose goal will be to train people to be part of such a team. I will be starting this group early next year and am, with this announcement, offering the opportunity to participate in this group. As I said, this will be an ongoing group. It is for people who have a strong commitment to their personal growth and development and who also want to develop the ability to line their energy up with others and become something larger than themselves. This group will require a major time commitment, a relatively minor financial commitment, and a willingness to work very closely with me and the other participants in the group. If personal growth and the ability to function extraordinarily well with others is a top priority in your life, this group is an incredible opportunity. Participation in this group will be limited to a select few. If you are interested in this group and would like more details, you can contact me directly at james@jamesswank.org. Thank you for your attention. We look forward to what develops. With love, James. ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ |
