Be The Cause of Your Life Series
Your Journey to BE THE CAUSE OF YOUR LIFE starts here.
I teach with an open hand rather than a closed fist. You are free to use these lessons in whatever way you choose. You may use them simply to improve the quality of your life; or, you may use them to teach your own class or write your own book. I invite you to take what you want from these lessons and pass it on. The purpose is to empower as many people as possible, not to act as if this material is "mine." All my great teachers, Parker J Palmer, Colleen Benzy, Davis Taylor, His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Gesha Sopa have all taught with an open hand. In each teaching I will give "my take" on certain dynamics and approaches. For example, the first segment has "my take on visualization exercises." The quintessential intention for all my work is to empower others and to challenge any language, practices or methods that disempower us. So to be the cause of our life and not the effect means: there is nothing to cling to as mine and that we all sit in a seat of personal authority.
Each segment with its lessons stand on its own. I recommend that you take the full course (12 segments), where you work on each segment for one month and then move on to the next segment. But try the first one on for size and see how the lessons fit and improves your life. You will have personal interaction with me, Julie Tallard Johnson, as I will respond to your explorations and journaling for each segment. You will also have one 20 minute consultation with each segment (we can use Zoom or phone).
All segments in the BE THE CAUSE OF YOUR LIFE Series are taken from a year-long course I took in the early 1990’s, subsequently updated, and then went on to teach for a couple decades. I also based a couple books on this material. I now want to offer this material to you. This class is based on the best psychology class I have taken in over 4 decades as a student, author, social worker, educator and explorer of the psychology of living a full and meaningful life. This course gives you the tools you need to move in the world with healthy boundaries and sense of self. My work with this material has resulted in 11 books and a successful private practice. Applying the material in my own life has helped me to avoid false shamans, trust my experience, know when someone is trying to con me, and finally, a way to have a direct line of communication to my inner teacher and Higher Power. This material showed me the way to be the cause of my life.
And this all started here, with these lessons.
There will be recommended readings, some from my books, some from other authors. I recommend you purchase, The Zero Point Agreement, as I will refer to some practices in this book. But it’s not necessary to have this or any other material other than the lessons offered here. Also, I recommend you give yourself time to focus on this material, meaning, setting time aside to read and practice this material, as well as not commit to other similar programs (at the same time). Such focus and attention brings rewards.
There is a total of 12 segments with at least 3 lessons in each segment. Starting anytime. You will sign up for each (or any segment) independently and I will send you the material and lessons via email. SIGN UP HERE
