As you are aware, we feel compelled to do whatever we can to energize the John Kerry Campaign. With that in mind, we have given music to Senator Kerry’s acceptance speech. You can download this song, “Won” (or No-W) by going to our web site at: http://www.lifeinbalancemusic.com and clicking the MP3 link on the home page. Feel free to download this song, make copies and pass it on in anyway that you can. The goal is to keep John Kerry’s positive view of America’s future fresh in our minds. This is national sound healing from the heart. We will also be uploading very special web only music over the next few days and weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------- Greetings Everyone, You can see by October’s schedule that Life In Balance is spending more time on the road and will continue to do so in the coming months/years. We are, however, booking venues in the Tri-State area (PA, OH, WV) for this December/January. Some have expressed an interest in having Life In Balance perform for their Holiday Events, please e-mail us as soon as possible. We will be on tour all of November and are arranging for December’s schedule now. Life In Balance music uplifts the spirit and heals the soul. We add an especially significant and refreshing element to the coming Holiday season. We plan to set the New Year Vibration at the Unity Church of Indianapolis at their “Burning Bowl Celebration”. Steve has always said in our meditations that “everything you need is inside of you”, and so, we are delighted to participate in an exquisite healing event in Pittsburgh the second weekend in October -- “The Healing Seminar”, Deepening the Connection and Awakening Intuitive Awareness with Brazilian Healer Edemir Rossi at The Priory City Inn, Pittsburgh, PA. God is inside you. Happiness is inside you. Love is inside you. Harmony is inside you. Everything you need is inside you. We can find God with training and meditation. When we do, we will find Him both deep within ourselves and manifesting continually outside of ourselves. -- Edemir Rossi Program Overview: In a naturally sacred setting that was once the home of Benedictine monks, we will work with Edemir on our individual and collective spiritual journeys. Through various lectures, discussions, exercises, meditations and experiential insights, we will awaken and deepen our intuition, spiritual intelligence and higher wisdom. Some highlights of the program include: Expansion of Consciousness and the Astral Field Understanding the Chakras from a New Standpoint and Utilizing this Newfound Knowledge for Spiritual Transcendence Working on Our Future; Manifesting Our Dreams Co-Creation as a Way to Rebuild and Reframe the Future Relating Energetics to the Physical Body A Silent Walking Meditation Transformational Music by “Life in Balance” Sunrise Yoga with Dan Heasley Friday Evening Chant with Ingrid Mundari For information call: 412-231-3338 or 724-316-4751 We begin a tour of New York this month, the first of many such trips.

The following evening on Wed. 13th, we’ll have our first ever session on New York soil at the Mountain View Studio in Woodstock, NY.

Whispering Winds believes preventive maintenance for your body mind and spirit needs to be looked at not as a luxury – but as a necessity! You will be given “tools” to handle the challenges of everyday. Each of the services at Whispering Winds Stables and Retreat are designed to create long lasting balance. Through educational and experiential workshops we promote spiritual growth in conjunction with the arts. We like to be viewed as a small window for you to see and feel therapeutic benefits of nature, art, music and spiritual growth. Art promotes responsibility and tolerance, while enhancing communication. Nature provides a calming ambiance, speaking instinctively to our spirit. Our Rocky Mountain Horses are the perfect complement to your experience. The August Reiki Exchange with live music from Life In Balance at the Sama Kara Wellness Center was so very powerful, We return on the 27th and we have decided to make it an on-going event. Sama Kara is the perfect venue for deep healing to occur. All the Reiki Folk out there, DON’T MISS THIS. See details below. We then leave for a Florida Tour and complete details will follow in two weeks. We’re looking forward to helping restore some balance to this hurricane-whipped state. We actually step foot on Florida soil on Election Day! In other news: We have started a Life In Balance Yahoo Group.
