Reach Higher Ground 
We each maintain a guidebook of sorts to help us decide what behaviors and attitudes we want to adopt. For example, we might decide to be courteous and diligent. Then we sometimes fall short. We might get angry when we intended to be kind or we might skip our planned exercise because we're not in the mood. 

In this talk, Jerry Waxler will explore techniques that help us adhere
to our values and goals, so we can be the person we want to be.

Writing as a tool to enhance spirituality
If you are interested in spirituality, come to this workshop to find how writing can help you achieve your goals. Writing lets you reach inside yourself, and connect interior passages with outer ones.

We'll explore how writing enhances spirituality
-- As a tool for introspection
--Write spiritual goals into your mission
--Fantasy expands your horizons
--Share yourself with others
--Hook your affirmations up to the real world
