SELF-DEVELOPMENT COURSES
Our powerful self-development courses are designed to provide the tools to expand consciousness, leverage universal energy to live a life of choice, and to embrace as possible that which previously seemed impossible! In other words, each course gives students the tools, as well as the support and guidance, to help them move from their current belief systems, to embrace a life of greater possibilities. Meditation, visioning, affirmative prayer, experiential exercises and many other spiritual practices are included in each class.
One thing is for sure -- you’ll feel more alive and alert than you’ve felt for years! You’ll find life more exciting and rewarding and you’ll find yourself living more on-purpose with a greater sense of love, compassion and inner peace. And, for those wishing to progress beyond the individual self-development classes, some of which are listed below, we offer practitioner (instructor) training and ministerial and leadership studies. Please select the SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP tab.

SUCCESSFUL LIVING
How do you cope with life’s problems? Do you sometimes feel that you’re living in the middle of a storm and that everything possible is going wrong? Perhaps it’s a severe health challenge or a financial problem. Are you feeling fulfilled? How do you deal with things such as rejection, fear or anger?

These are the constituent elements of successful living and on this journey, we’ll be looking at a whole range of issues which affect our everyday lives.

PROSPEROUS LIVING
Many people think of prosperity as money, but it’s so much more than that! To start with, money and things are manifestations of our prosperous thinking.
So .... when we understand that, we can see that our prosperity begins with us because it’s our thinking, our feeling, the state of our consciousness, which attracts our prosperity, or lack of it. We need to constantly remind ourselves that we’re living in a world that’s a reflection of our consciousness, that we’re all living magnets attracting to ourselves the things, people, riches and circumstances that are in total agreement with our thoughts, feelings and beliefs.
In this ground-breaking course we learn to be the living magnet for greater prosperity. As well, we look at a whole range of issues associated with prosperous living -- following our dreams, the essence of prosperity, the cause of wealth, fitting in, the cause of lack, eliminating fears and barriers to our good, and living a life of bliss.
Remember, what comes from us (what we say, do and express) is a reflection of what’s going on inside of us -- our beliefs, thoughts, feelings, emotions and acceptances.

YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE
In this course we reach a greater understanding of the connection between our mind and our body and the important part that consciousness plays in the healing process. A whole range of topics related to health and well-being are considered such as how emotional states influence our body, beliefs regarding diseases and illnesses, the Spiritual healing of a physical condition, the connection between spirit-soul-body, and who we really are, as opposed to who we think we are. The course involves 24 hours discussion and classroom work spread over 8 classes. Louise Hay’s work is used as the basis for discussion periods.
FINANCIAL FREEDOM
One of our most popular courses, FINANCIAL FREEDOM helps us to develop the feeling of freedom so that we can experience and express ourselves without the limitations or restraint of worry about money. We deepen our relationship with prosperity, look at our beliefs about money, and come to understand that financial freedom means order, balance and abundance in our financial affairs. It doesn’t mean just having enough money to barely scrape through life with! The information provided during the 24 hours of this 8-class course will change your life forever.
THE POWER OF YOUR WORD
How much power and influence do our words and thoughts have? Would it surprise you to know that everything in our life - including the things we say we don’t want, are the result of our believing thoughts? How do we change our thinking and how do we choose words that are affirmative and will attract what we do want, rather than what we don’t want? That is the essence of this 7-class (21 hours in total) course in which we look at the wonderful writings of Florence Scovel Shinn.
HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS
How do you get on with other people? Perhaps more importantly, how do you get on with yourself? Do you lump people into groups of those you LIKE, don’t like, can’t stand, or find irritating?
We can't escape relationships, nor would we want to – they’re essential ingredients of our human experience. We’re always in a relationship of some type regardless of whether we’re conscious of it or not. In these classes we learn the art of effective relationship-building by first considering the most important relationship we’ll ever have in our life – the one we have with ourselves 24/7. And it’s here that we learn to realise, grow and express our self-respect, self-esteem and self-love.
We’ll also look at our connection with other people – family, friends and those with whom we interact at work or in a social setting. How can we improve these relationships? How can we learn to make them more fulfilling, freeing and empowering? These are the types of things that we’ll investigate in this course.

SCIENCE & RELIGION
In this unique series of 10 classes (30 hours in total) we’ll enter the world of Quantum Mechanics, investigate the works of Stephen Hawking and Richard Dawkins, and study the 6 main religions (Buddhism, Christianity, Daoism, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism) as well as the historic religions of the aboriginal peoples of Australia, Asia and Africa.
SELF - MASTERY
Are you achieving your true potential? Are you happy with every aspect of your life? Do you feel secure, confident and successful 24/7?
If you answered "no" to any of the above, consider this extensive 8-class course which provides a detailed overview of life to understand how things get to be the way they are. We learn to take control of our lives by exploring consciousness (thought, emotion, feeling, ego, etc.), relationships, self-esteem, faith and commitment, before learning how to integrate self-mastery into all areas of living.

THOMAS TROWARD – THE EDINBURGH LECTURES
In 1859, Charles Darwin challenged conventional wisdom with his landmark and controversial book ON THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES. And then 45 years later, in 1904, Thomas Troward again challenged popular thinking through a series of lectures at Queen Street Hall, Edinburgh; lectures which would have a profound effect on the way we view the interaction between our thinking and what happens in our lives.
In this series of 8 classes we’ll look at Troward’s rationale for distinguishing between Spirit and matter, achieve a greater understanding of the unity of Spirit, and look at the two functions of mind and the law of growth. In the words of Thomas Troward, “We are accustomed to judge only by external appearances and by certain limited significances which we attach to words; but when we being to inquire into the real meaning of our words and to analyse the causes which give rise to the appearances, we find our old notions gradually falling off from us until at last we wake up to the fact that we are living in an entirely different world to that which we formerly recognised.”
