I Can Do It -- Hay House Conference

Over the weekend I attended the Hay House, "I Can Do It Conference" in Tampa, and my head is still spinning! The speakers were fabulous!

My friends and I started out on Friday night with keynote speaker, Wayne Dyer, who spoke about his new movie, "The Shift" and about his diagnosis of Leukemia. I must say he looked good and was quiet energetic. Even though after almost 3 hours in one seat, most people were restless and ready for a good stretch, we remained spell bound hanging on to every word.

Saturday morning started with Louise Hay herself, founder of Hay House and author of the famous You Can Heal Your Life! What an inspiration, especially when she announced that she recently had a birthday, turning 84! She introduced Marianne Williamson, the morning keynote speaker, who spoke about her new book, A Course in Weight Loss which sounds like a good resource for anyone who needs to lose anything, whether it is extra pounds or something else that may be 'weighing us down'. One of my friends bought her book and is excited to get started in the course.

There were break out sessions over the course of the weekend. On Saturday we chose  Eldon Taylor who taught us about mind programming, and Cheryl Richardson who provided on the spot laser coaching to a few brave volunteers from the audience.

The Saturday afternoon speaker, Brian Weiss author of Many Lives Many Masters  led us through a guided meditation toward our past lives. The meditation seemed to last only a few minutes, most were surprised to find out that 35 minutes had past.

We spent Saturday evening with Dr. Christiane Northrup, women's health guru. She informed and amused us with her topic, "Menopause and Beyond, New Wisdom for Women".

By Sunday morning we were information over load and decided to skip the morning keynote speaker. But we did make it to the morning break out and boy oh boy were we glad we did.  Dr. Mona Lisa Schultz was the by far my favorite speaker. Through music and humor she taught us about the chakras and what they mean to both our bodies and our lives. If you ever get a chance to listen to her, DO!

In the afternoon we heard from a new speaker to the Hay House group, Alisa Vitti. She did an excellent job explaining the endocrine system and how to care for it to ensure good health.

Since we had about a 2 hour drive home we decided to skip out on the Sunday afternoon keynote.  We felt our brains could not handle any more information.

This conference was like an all you can eat buffet! Which is great one day, but after three days you feel completely stuffed!

Would I go again? Yes. I would go with the knowing of how much information would be coming at me and I would know to bring a seat cushion! Let me also mention that we stayed across the street from the convention center at the Marriot. We were that it was convenient to run to the room between sessions to freshen up and drop our bags (from all our book and CD purchases.).

I look forward to discovering how much I learned as little, by little, I incorporate all the wonderful, informative, and inspiring information into my own life and share it with my clients!
