When you have children, your life becomes less about you and more about them. Your Facebook page is a constant display of their pictures, from the day they were born and possibly every minute after. You give your very best to them – the best clothing, shoes, food, school – every time and any way possible. Every detail of your live evolves around them.
Naturally these display of affection may be enough to earn us the title as “best mom and dad” but it is also important to be aware that there is more to it than just material things and that creating a deeper, stronger emotional bond with your child beats everything else. Creating that deep emotional bond starts with effectively communicating your thougths and actions in an understandable manner to your child so that your intentions may not be misunderstood or taken for granted.
HeartWorks is pleased to have Diana Kubilos, a social worker and health educator who specialize in women’s health and family life education to give a talk on how to develop stronger and deeper communication techniques with your child. This FREE 2 hour talk will give you some tips you can bring home to work on creating better relationships with your children.
Some of the topics that are covered are:
• Determining Challenges and Setting Goals
• Emotional Intelligence and Raising “Thinking Kids”
• Empathetic listening : One of human’s greatest needs
• Standing Back : Observing without evaluating
• Transforming your anger into learning messages
• Taking Responsibility of our feelings
• How to Request, with connection and empowerment
• Expressing Appreciation deeply and compassionately
and many more…

It’s already the end of the first week of the New Year and time is just flying. I’m sure I am not the only one experiencing the hours and days just passing us by in a blink of an eye and this will become more apparent as we move head first into higher consciousness.
So what is this higher consciousness or vibration that everyone seems to be talking about? It’s not as drastic as the movie 2012 where a fancier version of Noah’s Ark comes to save a few elite and the world gets wipped out, but rather it’s the death of old consciousness rebirthing into new ones.
The old thinking patters of violence, greed, adultery, evil, self-centeredness is replaced by unconditional love, peace, kindness, sharing and caring for each other. A tall order you may say, but more and more people are seeking true meaning to life, wanting a change for the better and I personally see these two extremes happening everyday.
I urge you to jump on the bandwagon, ride the waves of change. Start exploring inwards, things that will make you happy, at peace, give more meaning to life and do it soon.
The Universal energies have a funny way to kick start things for you should you decide wait. Instead of a gentle nudge you will get a steady shove. Things in your life will come crumbling down and that’s when you will ask the question we all will at some point in time – “Why Am I here?” or “Is there more to life than this?”
So what to do? Start exploring!
It may be in the form of a book (my personal favourite is The Alchemist) goggled articles; attending talks that creates a better you, taking better care of your health, going for a personal reading, starting a simple daily meditation exercise of just join one of ours and learn to quiet that mind and relax. And in time a course or even retreats to expand that beautiful consciousness of yours.
HeartWorks will undertake this 2012 to conduct more activities to help you kick start this new wave of unconditional love, peace and fulfillment in you, develop the ultimate relationship of all – the one with yourself.
So stay tuned! Subscribed to our newsletters, check out our events page and ride the wave with us!

I’m sure I’m not the first person to tell you that relationships are hard work, yet many people neglect to put in more effort to keep the bond strong and healthy for a lasting relationship. We all admire the old couples walking on the streets still holding hands and in love. So how does one imitate what they have into our own lives?
Here is 3 steps you can immediately use to enrich your relationships.
One: Communicate
Yes it’s true when they say communication is the key to all great relationships. It’s more than just the usual how was your day conversations but more of getting to know the person you are with in greater depth that involves asking meaningful questions and being attentive to the answers. Find out what makes your partner tick and what does not. Questions like, “What actions can I take to make you feel more secure” or “How would you like me to show you that I love you. Is it by touch, by words or by actions”. That is the kind of question that would really help you understand each other better.
Two: Respect
Respect really comes from within. When you respect your partner enough to not abuse the person in anyway at all, you have got most of your arguments sorted out. Imagine someone you truly respected. Like your Father or the prime minster or even your boss. You wouldn’t for a second hurl any obscenities at him nor would you degrade or make a mockery out of him or her. Likewise do this and keep in mind the love that you have for each other and respect that person as you would respect yourself.
Three: Trust
A relationship really cannot work if you don’t trust your partner whole-heartedly. Many find this very hard to do if they had a past that lead to betrayal. But do remember that not everyone you meet is the same or has the same qualities of someone in the past. You cannot truly love if you cannot trust. If you did have bad experiences before, its best to work on it, release that part of the emotion and let it go. Let love fill your life instead of doubts. It also helps if you did choose a compatible partner in the beginning but that’s another story for another day.
So give these 3 ideas a try and you will be surprise how much more fulfilling your relationships can be.

We instinctively go for a massage when we are tired, stressed or have some muscles that needs unknotting. Now there is another more effective way for you to release stress and all those pent up stubborn emotions to facilitate deep relaxation and healing – the Raindrop Technique.
A therapy that uses therapeutic grade essential oils on your feet and your spine so that it will be absorbed through the skin and travel down through the dermis levels into the interstitial fluids that run within our bodies. This therapy addresses spinal alignment issues, helped bring relief to chronic pain sufferers and has produced visible improvement in scoliosis. Often many types of spinal problems and misalignments are caused by bacteria and viruses hibernating along the length of the spine. The use of essential oils helps to dispose of these viruses within the spine, helping its structure return to normal.
It enhances immunity, cleanses the body of toxins, unwinds tight and sore muscles, tendons, and ligaments, balances and harmonizes the energy and structural systems of the body, soothes the nervous system, boosts stamina & increases energy, promotes overall health, vitality & longevity.
Try raindrop, Feel the oils and Learn about Health and Wellness
Participants in this experiential class will have the opportunity to learn about the 7 single essential oils (Oregano, Thyme, Basil, Wintergreen, Marjoram, Cypress, and Peppermint) and 1 blend (Valor) used in Raindrop Technique. These specific oils support the body’s immune function in a delightfully relaxing manner. In this session, we will be applying the oils to our feet and experiencing the effects while learning about the properties, so please dress accordingly.
Our invited guests from Singapore – Hong Chua and Shuli will share this special technique with us on the 11 November at 8pm followed by an Integration and Manifestation Meditation inline with the 11.11.11 special day.

Raindrop Technique – so much more than just a massage!
Imagine the sensation of sinking into a deep and blissful state of rest, as someone does the ancient Tibetan version of reflexology on your feet. As you slowly (even reluctantly) come back to your body and roll over, you experience the gentle splashes as therapeutic grade essential oils are applied up your spine and to your tired muscles. These oils are then “feathered in” using a spine-tingling technique inspired by the Native Americans, combined with massage. You can’t get more pampered than this!

Detoxification is a natural and constant process that our body does naturally. Our body knows how to continuously eliminate toxins through our sweat, digestive system, urine, circulatory, respiratory, and lymphatic systems.
While our body is designed to handle some toxins, it can go into overload when it needs to process too much processed food, pollutants and parasites we expose it to daily and these will really affect our body. We will be tired, stressed, constipated, hormone imbalanced, moody, suffer from low immunity that can cause us to be ill from time to time.
Detoxification usually includes one or more of: dieting, fasting, or avoiding specific foods, colon cleansing and others. Another way of detox is through the use of essential oils. When used in conjunction with a dietary and herbal detoxification, essential oils complement the natural cleaning process. Entering the bloodstream through the pores of the skin, essential oils are carried to all parts of the body via the circulatory and lymphatic systems.
Come October, Hong from Singapore will introduce you to the wonderful ways of detoxing with essential oils. Come share your health issues or problems and try on different essential oils during this 2 hour workshop and learn new and exciting ways of clearing and cleansing your body, mind and soul.
