July 2009 Workshops,
Group Meditations, and Programs
Dear Friends,
Golly, it’s July and we can hail the red, white, and blue but I sure LOVE the full spectrum of colors in my life. They just make life juicy and well, colorful.
Recently I was in New York for over a week. I'd like to thank all of my friends at Inner Prosperity East. I facilitated a meditation for two new groups of people — many who have never meditated before and the experiences were amazing. I also LOVED receiving clients in person (I typically work with my New York friends over the phone). Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Our latest Heal the Healers Intensive was, well, intense. So many core issues are up to be healed and thanks to all attendees for your courage to show up so fully. You Rock!
I’m excited to announce that Deb Engle and I are on YouTube talking about what Tele-Miracles can do for you. We had a lot of fun creating it. Here’s the link: A Course in Miracles Tele-Conference. It is so fun! Check it out. Pass it along to anyone whom you think would be interested. I’d like to extend a huge thank-you to Roger Routh for filming and editing it. You do fabulous work, Roger!
Blessings of Love to you ALL ways,
Rita Henry

These classes are so much fun — and because they’re recorded, you can listen as many times as you want for free! You’ll be amazed how comfortable and accepted you feel within this A Course in Miracles Community of Joy.
- Each evening, participants share stories and real-life examples of how Miracles has changed their lives.
- A meditation takes you to a place of deep relaxation and a shift in consciousness. You can make it your daily meditation if you want, simply by playing back the recorded call.
- And here’s the biggest difference between Tele-Miracles and other studies of the Course: You walk away from each class understanding the amazing concepts of the Course (if you’ve ever read it, you know that’s a challenge to do on your own) with practical ways to make your life better every single day.
- And as an added bonus … after every class, you’ll receive our Reflections on A Course in Miracles, filled with helpful tips and readings from the Course. It’s everything you need to feel supported and deepen your study of the Course in between Tele-Miracles classes.
If you want better relationships, a greater sense of well-being, more joy, and less drama in your life, join us! Tele-Miracles classes will increase the vibrancy of your life … then supersize it!

Your Magnificent Life
A fabulous meditation guided by Rita Henry
Tuesday, July 21, 2009. It’s time to super-size your life! It’s time to stop surviving and start thriving. It’s time to open your life up to abundance and prosperity.
In this fascinating meditation, Rita focuses on transforming small thinking into expansive thinking. She talks about seeing what can be — instead of just what is. She shakes things up and challenges the all-too-common tight and restrictive ways of living (or should I say, “ways of existing”?).
Who is this meditation for? It’s for anyone who wants more out of life — relationships, fun, business, career growth, and of course, more money.
Your Magnificent Life will be held on the top floor in the Inner Prosperity building, at 2708 Grand Avenue in Des Moines. But there’s a wonderful twist to this meditation: You don’t have to be present to participate because it’s also a telemeditation. This means that you can join us over the telephone. (I’m using a state-of-the-art teleconferencing bridge system.) Now you can participate in the meditation even if you live in another state or are otherwise unable to attend in person. You get to feel the live connection with people from around the country in the comfort of your own home or office. Wow!
I also record the meditation so that you can listen to it (for the next thirty days) as often as you want.
The date of the Your Magnificent Life meditation is Tuesday, July 21st. We will meet from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. If you are joining us over the telephone, the phone meditation will be from 6:30 p.m. to approximately 7:30 p.m. (After you sign up, you will receive the phone numbers and code for the conference calls.)
It’s $35. (Please see refund policy at the bottom of this page.)
To reserve your spot for the workshop, please call (515) 313-1156. Or email us at InnerProsperity@gmail.com — please include the event you wish to attend, your name, and your phone number. We will email you a confirmation of your registration.
Then, please make checks payable to Inner Prosperity, Inc., and send to Inner Prosperity, Inc., 2708 Grand Avenue, Des Moines, IA 50312. The class will be held at Inner Prosperity. Payment must be received to reserve your spot!

Ahhh Massage! Yes we have known for a long time that a massage is a decadent way to relax and unwind, but did you know that studies show that massage has many benefits?
Researchers at the Group Health Center for Health Studies in Seattle, Washington, found that massage works better than common treatments including chiropractic therapy and acupuncture. It's not clear why, but several studies show massage reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol while boosting the feel-good hormones serotonin and dopamine. Those changes slow your heart rate, reduce blood pressure, and block your nervous system's pain receptors. Massage also increases blood flow to the muscles, which may help them heal.
Massage is one of the oldest healing arts: The Ayurveda tradition which has its roots in India dating back 5,000 years speaks of the benefits of massage and self massage known as Abyanga. The benefits of massage are varied and is used for physical rehabilitation programs. Massage therapy has also been beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, fatigue, depression and more.

New! Children's Reiki I Class, Ages 5 -12
With Kevin Thoren
Saturday, July 9th, 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at 2708 Grand Avenue in Des Moines, IA. Children have been expressing an interest in Reiki so it seems the time is right to offer this level one class. The children take to this naturally and it is fun to see them grow.
Reiki is a beautiful, subtle, yet powerful energy that has a history dating back to over two thousand years and is thought to have originated in Tibet. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words — Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."
Reiki energy has several basic effects: It brings about deep relaxation, destroys energy blockages, detoxifies the system, provides new vitality in the form of healing universal life energy, and increases the vibrational frequency of the body. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows you to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve your health and enhance quality of life. If you have already taken Reiki I you can take this class for half price. CEU's (Continuing Education Credits) are available.
Your child will have a chance to practice giving and receiving this beautiful Reiki energy. It's only $35.00.
Call (515) 313-1156 to reserve your spot, or email InnerProsperity@gmail.com. The class size is limited so call now.

In a healing circle we will be using the group energies to increase the effectiveness, and to create an incredible experience for all who attend.
This gives those of us who have taken the Raymon Grace classes a chance to practice what we learned, or we could say let's hone our skills. To hone is to make more acute or effective; improve; perfect. Let us continue creating a community of healing and love. Looking forward to seeing you.

Soulular Connection
With Kevin Thoren
Sunday, July 26th from 10:00 a.m. to Noon. It's FREE! We would like to have everyone register with us just in case we need to reschedule due to the weather.
Hi, I want to invite you to an incredible event at the Old Main Library, Des Moines. For those of you who missed the opportunity to particpate in June, we will be continuing our celebration of the vortexes which is why we are choosing this location in Des Moines.
We will be celebrating our renewed sense or desire to connect with our soul as well as others. This event will be life altering as we ask that our illusions be cleared and that we remember the truth of who we are and that truth is Love. It is time my friends for forgiveness and to release judgement.
Fear, judgement, anger, resentment, or just feeling like the world is against you, causes contraction and withdrawl. Love, Joy and Happiness allow us to open to expand. Let us choose this moment to connect with our heart/soul and to share the love, to remember, to awaken.
If you have any type of musical instrument you would like to bring please do so as we will have an opening ceremony to bless the day, land, and our spirit guides. Please bring blankets, water and your favorite musical instrument.
To let us know that you're coming, email Kevin at Kevin@InnerProperity.com.

The Rhythms of Summer
With Jackie Parker
Jackie Parker is a practicing Clinical Ayurvedic and Pancha Karma Specialist who graduated from the California College of Ayurveda, and the American Institute of Vedic Studies.
As the weather shifts from warm to hot, and temperatures reach their maximum, the fire element of Pitta becomes predominant. Whether you have a lot of Pitta in your constitution or not, you need to pay attention to the fire element in the summer months.
You can recognize the signs of imbalanced Pitta if you feel: anger, jealousy, irritation, aggressive or argumentative. Also, if you are experiencing any inflammation, rashes, acne, ulcers, bursitis, heartburn, acid reflux, these are also symptoms of a heat imbalance.
Let’s look at a few ways to keep our metabolic fire balanced:
The easiest, most natural thing to do is adjust the diet.
Fruit and Greens
When it’s hot, innately we seem to crave juicy fruits and cool salads. One of my favorite summer time evening meals is a fresh fruit salad with apples, sweet oranges, cherries, mangos, mellon, coconut chunks, or whatever strikes my fancy, with a squeeze of fresh lime.
In the vegetable category, go for bitter leafy greens like chard, spinach and kale, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, peas, watercress, cucumber, lettuce, and zucchini.
Meat and other heating products
It’s important to avoid red meat, alcohol, caffeine, chili peppers and salt. If you need to take a little animal protein, chicken, turkey and fish are best.
Grains
Eat plenty of whole grains like barley, wild rice, couscous, pasta and basmati rice. Moong beans and dal are the best legumes to reduce the effects of heat. Garbanzo beans, lentils and tofu are also good choices.
Nuts
Coconut is the best choice in the nut category for summer. Generally most nuts are heating but small amounts of peeled almonds, (soak them overnight and their peels slip right off) pumpkin and sunflower are okay.
Spices
The best cooling spices are cilantro, coriander, mint, basil, turmeric, and cardamom. Avoid mayonnaise, mustard, soy sauce and vinegar.
Oils
Coconut oil and ghee are good choices for fat and always avoid margarine, crisco, or any refined oils that are chemically altered.
Drinks
Drink apple, mango or peach juices. If you have not tried Zrii, summer is the time to get hooked on this beverage. Zrii is formulated with herbs and botanicals to promote longevity and enhance immunity that also just happens to be anti-inflammatory. My body craves Zrii in the summer months! (If you have not tried it and want to, contact lovely Rita for a free sample! (515) 779-2424.)
Sweetners
Jaggery, rice syrup, maple syrup and fruit juice concentrates are the best choices for sweet taste. Avoid white sugar and too much honey.
Exercise
Exercise in the coolest parts of the day and don’t forget... Pitta peaks at noon, so plan your day to be indoors if possible during this time. Wear cool, comfortable, natural fiber clothing and sport a hat!
Relax and chill out
Let’s face it, we all work too hard! So find a beach, a hammock, or a lounge chair (in the shade of course) and put your feet up for an hour or so and chill! Little breaks throughout the day ease stress and give us a sense of renewal.
Stay cool and I’ll see you next month!
Inner Prosperity offers gorgeous gift certificates.
Along with sessions, retreats, and workshops, we have a fabulous selection of products: Jonathan Parker audio programs and meditation CD’s, books, and Himalayan rock salt lamps.

Primordial Sound Meditation
A program developed by
Deepak Chopra, MD and
offered through the Chopra Center for Well Being
Friday and Saturday, September 25th and 26th, location to be announced. Guided by Donna Miesbach, Certified Primordial Sound Instructor. Primordial Sound Meditation originates in the ancient wisdom of India. Best selling author and renowned expert on Mind Body Medicine, Dr. Deepak Chopra has revived this authentic practice and made it available in a format that can be easily learned and enjoyed.
Meditation is one of the most powerful tools there is to help us access our body's inner intelligence and restore its natural balance and harmony. In meditation, we tap into the inner silence in our mind and make it part of our daily life. Silence is the birthplace of happiness. It is where we get our bursts of inspiration, our tender feelings of compassion, our sense of love. Meditation is a journey to freedom and self-knowledge.
Discover the silence
which creates inner peace
and renews energy for the
challenges of daily living.
Primordial Sound Meditation is a very exact form of meditation. It uses specific sounds called mantras which help our awareness settle down to quieter, more peaceful levels. These individually selected mantras act as a vehicle to reconnect our lives with the universal life force or Spirit that flows through all creation.
Primordial Sounds are the basic, most essential sounds of nature, like the sound of the wind or the rain. They are sounds in their purest form. The specific sounds which are used in Primordial Sound Meditation are mantras. We use these mantras to silently take our awareness away from the busy activity of the mind, thus calming and soothing mind, body and soul.
