One Voice

Life has become an extreme sport. One moment hope takes hold - the next we’re crushed under a mountain of fear and doubt. We are seemingly whipsawed by forces beyond our influence. Job loss, foreclosure, homelessness, banking disasters, credit card abuse, corporate and government corruption, terrorist attacks, war, violence and environmental disasters. Any one of these events will cause sleepless nights and gut-wrenching, hand-wringing days, but now we’re juggling the mother load of extreme experiences.

Humanity is being forced to wake up. The heat has been cranked up passed the boiling point because earlier, less abrasive nudges went unnoticed. Time is of the essence. With every challenge in life - there exists a miracle just waiting to be recognized.

Why are you alive at this moment? Why are you on this path of self discovery? What is it that keeps you searching for answers and hunting for direction? Whether you consciously remember it or not, you are preparing to take your role in this divine mission. Each of you is blessed with distinctive skills, talents, gifts, strengths, knowledge, courage and compassion unique to only you and desperately needed by this planet. As
individual as your outer “suit of clothes” may seem, you are a magnificent reflection of the Divine; one heart, one love and one energy. And collectively as we focus our intention, we raise One Voice to declare our
unity and willingness to co-create heaven on earth.

In every moment you are being pushed to make a positive difference. You are an inspiration To all whom come into your presence. You have the ability to raise hope in all you meet. Take action. Begin simply by smiling and extending a kindness. Look for the good in all. Be grateful for every experience in your life. During these challenging times, be kind to yourself. And share your light. It will be returned to you a thousand-fold.

You Don't Need to Suffer
Insight from the Source

Everything in our reality is being shaken up and shaken loose. We are being asked to BE MORE and abandon old ways that no longer serve us.

We are moving into a higher way of being. At the core of every physical, emotional and spiritual challenge is the Divine. Recognizing this is not easy and accepting it means that you are facing some hard realities. But the Divine stands ready to support you.

Tomorrow morning when you wake up - jump out of your mental circumstances into the true magnificent presence of who you are. The moment your eyes open and before your feet hit the ground say “thank you”. Thank the universe for all the positive attributes that exist in your life. If this seems far-fetched, reduce it to the ridiculous. Be grateful that you can still draw breath on your own. Be grateful that the sun is shining and that you hear or experience nature all around you. Be grateful for those family or friends - and name them one by one - who greet you with a smile in their eyes or gratitude in their hearts. If you have a pet, pick it up and give him or her a hug and thank the universe for the unconditional love and companionship that it provides. Start with an attitude of gratitude for the basics in your life and make a daily habit of saying thank you. At first your perception will shift little by little. Before long the way you count and “value” your blessings will shift radically. Indeed this is a powerful tool to help you recognize the countless ways the Divine shines forth in your life.

Life is a beautiful tapestry of individuals, experiences, laughter, tears, successes and challenges. God is weaving magnificent strands of color and texture throughout your work of art here on earth. Sometimes you are just too close to the pattern to see the brilliance of the overall design.

Know that you are only every moved to where you need to be - so move passed the mayhem and into the miracles. Suffer no more

Minneapolis Contacts Still Needed
We Need Your Help

“You are my inspiration,” says Panache. “Each time you step into the fullness of who you are here to be and share your light, I am inspired to reach out to so many more.”

Indeed, your help is needed now.

Panache is guided to anchor the highest energies of God’s love and protection in Minneapolis/St. Paul this summer at the 2nd Global Gathering, June 27 and 28. In preparation for this weekend gathering, Panache will make a special trip to the Minneapolis/St.Paul area on Saturday, May 16 and Sunday May 17, 2009 to create a presence in this new geographic locale.

We hope you will share your Minnesota contacts with us. We need their help in spreading the word of this upcoming visit. The willingness of our community to authentically share about this gift is the most positive resource we have. Call either JC or Jan and they will lovingly work with your friends to spread the word. (239) 649-7373.

Meet JC Carpenter

She is the loving voice you connect with each time you call the office as well as the powerhouse behind every detail masterfully juggled to ensure Panache’s tours and sessions come together flawlessly.  She is an embodiment of integrity, wisdom, caring and competence - and a blessing in Panache and Jan’s life.

JC joined the office over a year ago when she decided to balance full-time child-rearing with a deep desire to reenter the work force. She answered a Craig’s List ad for a 30-day special project and completed it in less than ten! With over 30-years as a retail executive for TJ Maxx in the Boston area, JC has honed a vast business, computer, and financial skill set that is custom made to assist us as we grow our community across this country.

A session attendee recently asked about the “significance” of her first name (JC) and the spiritual parallel to her last name (Carpenter). Pair that with the fact that she works for a Spiritual Master and we’ve got the beginnings of a fantastical story. In fact, her real name is Jan, but the office is too small to have two women with the same name. She was dubbed JC within the first 30 days - short for Jan Carpenter. 

When she does find some free time, JC enjoys relaxing near the ocean, taking pictures and is a self-proclaimed, frustrated, would-be interior decorator. She has been married to her loving husband, Charlie, for 19 years and is a full-time mother to her almost four-year-old granddaughter Alexis. 

“Working with Panache and Jan has afforded me the opportunity to do what I love, working with people from all backgrounds and walks of life,” says JC. As to what inspires her?  “Individuals that are handed difficult circumstances or challenges in life and then overcome them to rise above and go on to achieve great things.”

According to her definition, Panache and Jan would agree that JC inspires them each day.

Awakening
Panache’s Newest CD Released

One of the most frequently asked questions during sessions is “How can I sustain this feeling of joy and peace throughout my daily life?”  Panache has just released a powerful tool to support you in staying connected. AWAKENING, Panache’s second CD, includes eight guided meditations to inspire you.

“One of the most simple daily practices you can incorporate into your life is to take a brief period each morning and just sit quietly with your palms open - ready to receive,” Panache explains. “For additional support, you may wish to listen to this CD which guides you to release the energies of anger, fear and sadness - while opening your heart to healing, love and abundance.” 

When listening to Panache’s recordings, know that his message is just one of the gifts you receive. Beyond his words something miraculous is happening. The energetic gift shared in sessions is also carried as a frequency on all of his recordings. As you listen, you enter a state of awareness, a transcended place of stillness. It is in this place that profound shifts occur and lasting changes are made.

Panache is excited to offer this beautiful collection of guided meditations to support and inspire you through these challenging times. Each meditation lasts from eight to twenty minutes. Recorded with gifted composer and keyboardist Richard Shulman, Panache’s beautiful voice and message, combined with the medium of music creates an uplifting, powerful journey to the Divine.

Words to Live By
Inspiration

People are like stained glass windows – the true beauty can be seen only when there is light from within. The darker the night, the brighter the windows. We are not powerless specks of dust drifting around in the wind, blown by random destiny. We are, each of us, like beautiful snowflakes - unique, and born for a specific reason and purpose. - Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

The Latest
You’re It

Panache shares the simplicity of what spirituality was always meant to be in this video-short filmed by Jason Scholder of Reel Change Films. “Stop empowering everything outside yourself,” reminds Panache. “If you’re living in connection with yourself, your living in connection with the Divine.”

Celebrating Mother's Day in Naples
A Heartfelt Day of Special Sessions on Saturday, May 9

On Saturday, May 9, please join Panache in Naples Florida for three special sessions. These programs will honor mothers, grandmothers, sisters and nurturers and all those who so magnificently carry the divine feminine deep within their hearts and souls.

Gather for a celebration of wisdom, insight and love honoring the enduring power, inner beauty and unique passion of extraordinary women. These are women who make remarkable contributions to their partners, their families, their work and their communities. Our world is brighter because of their light and Divine presence. 

The day begins at 10:00 a.m with additional sessions at 1:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. Each session is two hours long and no two sessions are alike. Everyone is welcome.  If there is someone near to your heart whom you would like blessed, but they can’t be present on this special day, please bring a photograph and Panache will offer special blessings.

To extend their gratitude to all who come for sessions throughout the year, the Mother’s Day programs will be offered at $69, a special, multiple-session discounted rate. It is available to those who pre-register for all three sessions. Space is limited and we expect this program to sell out.

Please click on the image above to get more information and to register for this event, or click here to listen to the flier.

To all women, take this day and receive the blessings and joy of those gathered in celebration and fellowship.

The Biggest Wake-Up
Inspirational Video

“Never judge a book by its cover,” an old adage that is finding its way into modern terminology in Panache’s sessions. He is more likely to say, “We all have divine gifts, talents, and abilities and you can never judge the “package” in which the most divine surprises may come forth. How often are you guilty of judging others based upon the “suit of clothes they choose to wear this lifetime?”

Watch this short video clip. It will serve as an inspirational reminder to remain open and vigilant to God’s rare surprises in life. Before you begin, you should know this about Susan Boyle:

She’s a homely, heavyset, 47-year old woman who lives alone with her cat.
She was teased mercilessly as a child because an accident at birth left her sounding mentally disabled. Susan also admits never having a boyfriend, and has “never even been kissed.” And when she watched the tape of her audition she said, “Oh my, I look like a garage.” Onstage, the chuckles began before she ever made it to center stage. The audience openly laughed at her, when she said her dream was “to sing in front of a large audience, maybe even to be a professional singer”...  Simon Cowel could barely contain his dismay when she poked fun at herself with a bawdy joke about her age and appearance…
