03 July - Xtraordinary Women: Somerset West Networking Event

TOPIC: Completion as a Way of Life

We constantly hear that for our businesses to be successful, we need to have a vision. However for this, we require our attention to be freed up so that we can recognize and "see". When our attention is fixed, then seeing becomes very difficult, almost impossible. It also becomes more complicated to have our attention freed up for anything else.

Networking No-No's: Never Do These 3 Things, Ever BY CHRIS HEIVLY

Networking. Don’t you hate networking? Just the sound of the word makes my skin crawl. If you think networking can feel forced and insincere you aren't alone. But for many, it's a necessary evil.

Join us for a demonstration of healing and learning with Tanya Harris, a visionary Healer and Teacher of Life Alignment.  

Come and experience for yourself the uplifting, restorative effects of energy medicine!

Everything we need to heal, is within us.  Our Higher Self knows the stories we hold in our subconscious library, where they are buried in our body and when we are ready to let them go.  By utilising the Life Alignment energy healing system, Tanya Harris will demonstrate how to tap into this higher consciousness to identify and shift the root cause of blockages in your Body, Relationships, Home & Business to sustain new energy flow in your life. 

The time has come to manifest our highest dreams of Love, Peace and Fulfillment for all Beings on this beautiful Planet.  We are in a time of immense change, as old structures are breaking down before our eyes.   It is vital for each of us to clear out our old pains and to reclaim our personal power. 

About our Guest Speaker:

Tanya Harris has trained with Dr. Levin and is an International Life Alignment Teacher, Practitioner & Speaker, with 10 years experience as an energy consultant. 

As Life Alignment’s head Teacher and Coordinator in Cape Town, she facilitates many workshops, groups and courses in the area of personal growth and self awareness.  Tanya’s wisdom and understanding is a culmination of many years of study and practice.  Her sessions are aimed at removing blockages regarding belief in one's self, reclaiming personal power and achieving wellbeing & success in all areas of life.

“I am passionate about what I do, to the very best interest of my clients (individuals, groups, families or businesses).  I have a non-intrusive approach and believe that aiding the growth and success of individuals and organisations bring about a positive change for all parties involved, ultimately serving the collective good.”

HOW TO MASTER THE FINE ART OF SMALL TALK

MOVE BEYOND THE WEATHER TO MAKE SMALL TALK LESS PAINFUL AND MORE PRODUCTIVE. HERE ARE FIVE THINGS THAT GREAT CONVERSATIONALISTS KNOW.

Small talk gets a bad reputation. To avoid this allegedly meaningless drivel, people skip networking events. Or, almost as bad, they attend, but talk to the three people they already know.

My motto is ‘every conversation is an opportunity for success.’” Here’s how to do small talk better:
