Other Transportation:
Taxis are available from the Lihui airport to the resort for approximately $20. The $325.00 registration fee includes transportation only for the two scheduled island tours. However, for the shoppers, several of the market places will offer free transportation to and from the condos. We will supply information to those interested, upon arrival.

Everything has to be shipped in from either the mainland or other countries. If you want to economize... go grocery shopping and eat-in several meals. For those meals out, there are plenty of scrumptious restaurants in Kauai to please any palette. .
Please Note: If you are interested in having an "ocean view" condo, we recommend you register as soon as you receive this email. All condos are close to the ocean, but for those that want to sleep next door to the sound of the waves and see the ocean constantly from their room, must call immediately. Rooms will be assigned in the order registrations are received.

Ponder This: What Do You Love Most About This Time of Year?
Right now we are on a trip with the "boys" and what a fun and blessed adventure we are having. Children remind us to be in our hearts, live in the moment, laugh at almost everything and have loads of fun. They know to not take life/things too seriously and to never stop enjoying the opportunity at hand.
George and I are experiencing playing hard and going from one fun event to the next. We are living in the "make-believe" world with our boys and have noticed how "alive" this makes us feel! Refreshing is an excellent word to describe being a child again and to be able to let the "ego" go. You know the one who has to get everything done and done right and right now, especially during the holidays!Sharing stories, receiving hugs, whipping up family recipes with our goddess-daughters, playing monopoly, adding a few last minute decorations to the tree, hanging stockings up before The Claus' arrival and taking a slow drive through the country to view the holiday lights, is what we call extraordinaire!
The high-light of the trip, so far, is the privilege of having my four grandsons joining me for a quiet time of meditation. They all four sit down around me, in the sacred space, which we have created together, centered into their hearts, for a few minutes, to connect to the Source of All Life and to be grateful for their abundant lives. This is indeed my holiday gift of all gifts, the "creme da le creme", to be able to share "sacred time and space" with four little souls, each learning the value of being centered before starting their day.

My wish is that you experience much goodness and happiness this holiday season. My prayer is that you get in touch with the holiday Spirit of Love and take time to bask in this richness that seems to be more preponderant this time of the year.
Ponder That!
Have the most peaceful and loving holiday season ever,
WisdomGoddess, Bev

Ponder This - Unwrapping Your Spiritual Gifts
Let us take time from the hustle and bustle of the holiday festivities and journey into our heart’s center to open the birth gifts that the Divine has placed inside each one of us. We often forget the true meaning of this quiet sacred time of the year and our minds get caught up with the gift giving, gift getting, delicacies, programs, parties, etc. We forget to go inside our hearts, be open to our potentiality, and ask for assistance from the Source to realize and utilize each gift. Instead of taking advantage of the still winter time of solstice, a turning point, we seem to get caught up in the hoop-da-la and forget that we could party and go inside.
If you want to evolve yourself and live a constant empowered life, here is a special time of the year to take advantage of the quiet energy that winter provides and begin unwrapping your spiritual gifts from nirvana. I recommend that you get started by creating a sacred space and time, within yourself and within your home to enjoy the true spirit of this season and to unwrap your presents from Spirit.
Spend time each day communicating with Spirit asking for assistance to better understand the reason for the season and how to unwrap your heavenly gifts, which you have been generously given. The most important thing you can do is ask for assistance. Ask for your innate gifts to be revealed to you. Ask for support to claim and celebrate your gifts. And in your sincerity, the answers will come, in a most thrilling way, and this will be the grandest holiday you have ever experienced.
Go ahead, decide to change the way you see and experience this holiday season.
Last Saturday, I had the privilege to speak to over 200 women/goddesses in the Kachmann Auditorium on “Empowered Living.” My focus was embracing the seven goddesses (attributes or wisdoms) within, which I am referring to in this article. These are the spiritual gifts, which we each need to unwrap this season.
Below I have written a brief paragraph about three of the seven goddess attributes for your read or review. Embrace and unwrap these three spiritual gifts (goddess attributes) for they will lead you to the other four and your life will truly become one of “Empowered Living”!
The Wisdom of Athena: Leadership (your spiritual gift)
Leadership is the gift that you were born with and this gift is governed by the hero-leader goddess who lives within you, whether you are male of female. Athena is your hero leader who has the courage and fearlessness to live your soul’s purpose, regardless of what others have to say. She unfolds within you diplomacy and is the business person who can create any variety of work his or her heart desires. One of Athena’s greatest gifts is her ability to appreciate her unique intelligence, which fuels her high self-esteem and self-worth. The Athena within you never apologizes for being an outrageously powerful person. (Unwrap this attribute gift)
The Wisdom of Demeter: Heart Intelligence, Everyday Wisdom (your spiritual gift)
Heart Intelligence, or everyday wisdom, is the gift that you were born with and this gift is governed by the compassionate-heart-goddess who lives within you. Demeter connects you to your heart wisdom, which daily guides you from the inside out, to live a fulfilled life. She teaches you how to live allowing your heart to guide or be in charge of your mind. See her as your “heart-mind connection.” Demeter’s wisdom helps you to understand how to “sense” or “feel” rather than to just “think” your way through life. Demeter is the mother of all goddesses, # 1, and without her heart wisdom, your life will be one of constant struggle. (Unwrap this attribute gift)
The Wisdom of Persephone: Harmony and Intuition (your spiritual gifts)
Harmony and Intuition are the gifts that you were born with and these two gifts are governed by the peaceful goddess who lives within you. Persephone is the soft voice that says, “in order to have harmony and tranquility in my life, I must be willing to let go and forgive.” She teaches us that once we release our “stuff,” we then can hear the gentle Voice of Intuition over the loud Voice of Fear. Persephone is also called the goddess of transformation and balance for once you release your “worn out” ways of living, you can begin to create a new exciting and empowered life. She reminds you not to plug into things that aren’t important or healthy, so that you may take your rightful and cooperative place in the world. (Unwrap this attribute gift)
Please visit my website: www.aboutwisdom.com to see my beautifully created WisdomDollsTM - Athena, Demeter and Persephone. Consider using my dolls in your sacred space as reminders of your innate gifts. Sometimes we need reminders of our gifts. These dolls are great tools to have around the house that say to your subconscious mind, “Wake-Up” to or unwrap your gifts! Treat yourself, your friends and family members this holiday to a WisdomDoll and our award-winning book, “Sophia and the Seven Goddesses,” to support remembering and embracing your spiritual gifts.
WisdomDolls and their book is on sale. See the special holiday price on our site or call: 260.423.3655 to place your order. Each doll and book is marked down over 30%.
Sale price for Dolls is $70.00. Regular price $99.00.
Sale price of our award-winning book is $ 14.00. Regular retail of $18.95.
Sale is over on 12.25.09.
I must thank all of you whom supported last Saturday’s “Empower Living: Embracing the Goddesses Within” event. Thank you for spreading the word. It was a grand success and over 200 women had the opportunity to empower themselves with their goddess gifts. I want to once again thank our sponsors who made this event a special one indeed:
~ Chipotle for a delicious lunch. Thank you manager Sandi Jensen.
~ Dr. and Mrs. Kachmann for the use of their amazing auditorium.
~ Crazy Sisters Coffee Roasters for the delicious coffee and tea.
~ The Mill Bread Company for the delectable assortments of breads.
~ Herrero Printing Company for printing the wonderful handouts every woman received.
~ Dash-In for the bottled water.
~ And we can’t forget the dessert provided by the Chocolate Thimble.
Please remember our sponsors this season when you are doing your holiday shopping. Thank you.
Ponder That!

Ponder This - Inner Work
There is no other way to add quality and richness to our lives unless we are willing to journey inside of ourselves, become vulnerable... and ask to see what it is we need to change and then release those things.
Transformation comes through the power of letting go or simply emptying out. As we release our “stuff,” we need to ask our Source to fill us with Light... so we may emerge anew and live the life we were intended to live the day we were born!
Ponder That!
P.S. I look forward to seeing you goddesses this Saturday the 5th at our “Empowered Living; Embracing the Goddesses Within” seminar. We have a full house of 250 women attending. Please note that we are sad that we can not provide for more women to attend this great event. Do cheer up if you missed this seminar because we already have another one planned for Spring 2010. So you may want to sign up right now by emailing info@aboutwisdom.com and ask for a ticket to be reserved in your name for the spring event.
