&lt;p&gt;      The two workshops this Sunday will be the last Transcendent Voyage&lt;br /&gt;workshops for several months. To prepare for the beginning of spring&lt;br /&gt;and a new year, I&amp;#39;ve scheduled two workshops on reaching your goals&lt;br /&gt;and guiding you towards your life purpose. Both are new workshops&lt;br /&gt;with practical exercises to assist you with making your best choices&lt;br /&gt;and achieving the life you want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These monthly workshops occur the last Sunday of the month from 11:30&lt;br /&gt;to 1:00 (first workshop) and 3:00 to 4:30 (second workshop) in&lt;br /&gt;Washington, DC. For a $10 donation each, they include a 1- to 1 1/2-&lt;br /&gt;hour lecture on issues related to self discovery and personal&lt;br /&gt;development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RSVP by 5:00 p.m. this Friday, March 23 to &lt;a href="mailto:vicki@transcendentvoyage.com"&gt;vicki@transcendentvoyage.com&lt;/a&gt; if you will be attending. I will send address/directions at that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m considering starting teleclasses once per month with similar&lt;br /&gt;material to the workshops, but by telephone. Please let me know if&lt;br /&gt;this is something you might be interested in participating in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*******************************************************************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sunday Spiritual Salon Series Workshops Sunday, March 25--Empowerment&lt;br /&gt;Day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Discovering Your Life Purpose (11:30 to 1:00)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Understand the difference and connection between life purpose and&lt;br /&gt;soul purpose, vocation/job/career, and legacy.&lt;br /&gt;*Clarify your passions, values, and talents.&lt;br /&gt;*See an image of your ideal self and how to make that vision a&lt;br /&gt;reality.&lt;br /&gt;*Create your Life Purpose Statement to use as a framework for your&lt;br /&gt;future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Goal Tending: How to Create a Balanced, Fulfilled, Successful Life&lt;br /&gt;(3:00 to 4:30)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Identify your current satisfaction with all areas of your life.&lt;br /&gt;*Specify what you desire to change in the areas of your life where&lt;br /&gt;you are unsatisfied.&lt;br /&gt;*Write an outline of how you&amp;#39;re accomplishing your goal.&lt;br /&gt;*Plan an activity schedule for achieving and maintaining whole-life&lt;br /&gt;balance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vicki Mattingly&lt;br /&gt;Self Discovery/Development/Evolution Specialist&lt;br /&gt;Transcendent Voyage&lt;br /&gt;Discover ~ Develop~ Evolve / Personality ~ Purpose ~ Potential&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.transcendentvoyage.com/"&gt;www.transcendentvoyage.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:vicki@transcendentvoyage.com"&gt;vicki@transcendentvoyage.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
