Bush Business Online
If I asked you as an Adult learners if Social Media, the Internet and New Technologies came naturally to you would your response be positive? The likelyhood would be NO.

Why is this so? Because todays Adult Learners were not born into this age of technology and finding the workshop to transfer this knowledge is hard to find.

The Bush Business Online program starts Adult learners off with practical, hands-on, how to workshops and finishes with online tutorials and peer to peer mentoring.

The workshop are designed to create a clear understanding of how Adult Learners, specifically small business owners, can use a viral marketing strategy to promote their small business.

The Bush Business Online program is an Australian Government funded initiative under the Small Business Online program. The program works on transferring the knowledge and expertise small business owners have about their products and services effectively onto popular, low-cost sites. This strategy will create a simple web presence that will attract customers in years to come.

The Mace Energy Method
A Free preview and talk about the Mace Energy Method(MEM),MEM Level I Basic Workshop and MEM Practitioner Certificate course.

This free talk about what is the Mace Energy Method and how can it assist you, your family, and your clients.

The Mace Energy Method (MEM) is a powerful tool used for emotional healing that is having a remarkable effect on peoples’ lives.

It permanently frees you from the emotional effects of unwanted experiences, no matter what they were, allowing you to take back charge of your life.

This simple but extraordinarily effective therapy will allow you to regain control of your life and find the real you. Not only can it put you on the path to emotional and psychological health and eliminate the stress that underlines many physical health problems, it can also lead to a marked improvement in your general health, well being and confidence.

It’s simply about removing the negatives in your life and allowing your true self to emerge. With that comes all your potential. What makes MEM unique is its simplicity, it does not involve any self disclosure and only requires one or two sessions that can also be carried out over the telephone.

Imagine your life free from hidden blocks and limitations that hold you back.

The Mace Energy Method Practitioner Certificate

Are you in the field of wholistic health and human potential looking for a non invasive and effective process,that finally eliminates the cause of your clients blockages to healing, self growth and development.

Are you a health care professional with a genuine interest in the welfare of your clients and searching for a more effective way?

Are you a life coach looking for that missing link that assists your clients in achieving their dreams and goals?

Are you looking for a career that assist people in finding their own simple answers to their own life's challenges.

There are three levels of training offered to people interested in using MEM to assist others and further, to become a certified MEM Practitioner. The only pre-requisite is to have experienced a MEM Session with an advanced practitioner. This gives the future trainee an appreciation and understanding of how MEM works, in other words they acquire a subjective reality. Reading provides objective reality, but no amount of reading will provide the essential subjective reality.

Confidence is a Choice! Reclaiming Your Power to Speak and Be Heard!
Does speaking up sometimes make you feel anxious and light-headed? Do you repress your voice and withhold your authentic feelings and point of view because you fear rejection or being misunderstood? Would you like to speak with more confidence and credibility, while commanding trust and respect? Then RealTime Speaking is for you.

In speaking, whether in a one-to-one situation, at a social or networking event, in a class or staff meeting, or on a stage in front of 5,000 people, a lack of confidence will always undermine our credibility. No one will listen to a timid, tentative speaker. Not having, or losing, confidence can sabotage anyone. There always seems to be a threshold past which we collapse inside of ourselves, crippled by anxiety, doubt, or fear. Without confidence, you won't speak up; you won't be heard. You won't participate. The opportunity of that moment is lost forever. How often has this happened in your life?

Confidence is essential and it is a choice! If you want the unshakeable confidence to say anything to anyone, anywhere and at any time - and be heard! - then register for this one day workshop. You will absolutely reclaim your power to speak and be heard!

This workshop is for everyone who wants to authentically and powerfully express themselves to others, and to be heard and considered. Participants will learn:

vulnerability is the safest strategy

how to convert judgment to opinion

how to dissolve fear-based inhibitions

to access their innate expressive power

the source of doubt and self-suppression

how to create personal and portable safety

to revise history by "pushing the bully back"
explore and experience the energy of taboos
to be comfortable in seeing and being seen
and much more!

YOU are the Message!
Speaking with Credibility, Confidence, and Connection

(Confidence is a Choice is a prerequisite to this workshop)


Making noises with our mouth is not speaking! Speaking well, both verbally and nonverbally, is a skill and art. This flagship one-day intensive learning experience gives you the philosophy, principles, and practices to help you speak in a compelling, confident, and credible manner - every time, all the time. You will learn to impact your audience consciously and purposefully with the power of your presence.

When we speak to people, we need to establish our credibility before we can influence our listeners. People want to know who you are. They want to believe in your motives, intentions, and character; in the story you tell about who you are and what you intend to do. If people do not find you credible, they will not listen to you, they will not trust you, and they will not allow you to influence them. Delivering your message in an authentic and credible manner will inspire your audiences to trust you.

"YOU Are the Message!" focuses on authenticity and credibility in self-expression, and how to make a real-time connection with your audience. You will learn to identify and use behaviors that communicate YOU and your message with clarity and power.

The themes of this intensive experience include:

the power of silence

appreciating your natural style

five RealTime Speaking principles

comfort with seeing and being seen

dissolving nervousness and stage-fright

aligning verbal and nonverbal messages

authentic connection with your audience

effective use of your speaking instrument

trusting spontaneity and thinking on your feet
and much more!

Participants have numerous opportunities to speak "on camera" and to receive expert coaching and feedback of videotaped presentations, which provides powerful learning and immediate improvement in RealTime Speaking principles and practices.
