We are thrilled to be hosting an exciting evening with Ray Behan – the man who changed his brain – and Antonella Traino – the woman who had one day to live. This will take place on Thursday June 6th, from 7.30 to 9.30 p.m. in Bewley’s Café, 78/79 Grafton Street, Dublin 2.

He is also very active in promoting the practical application of quantum physics, quantum mechanics, biology, and frequently writes and speaks on quantum, human consciousness and the ‘egoic and biological self’. He has studied quantum phenomena, biology and cosmic consciousness for many years with some of the greatest educators in their field of human personal development, such as Dr. John Demartini, Jack Canfield, and Benjamin J. Harvey.
Antonella survived a near-death experience, and is now a health and mindset educator, a qualified counsellor and a trained facilitator of The Demartini Method. She has studied human behaviour, psychology and personal growth for over twenty years, and has assisted numerous people break through their self-limiting beliefs and perceptions. Antonella is passionate about mindsets, quantum physics, neuroplasticity, epigenetics, psychoneuroimmunology and stepping outside the boundaries of what mainstream culture tells us.
During this enthralling event with Ray and Antonella, we will discuss a range of topics, including:
Why the brain is just a processor of information, while ‘we’ are outside the brain.
Antonella’s healing process, the day she almost died, and how she changed her mindset so much that she now travels the world, teaching, helping and healing.
The meaning behind the phrase ‘The Indoctrination of the Imagination’.
Details from Ray’s new book (yet to be released), The Man Who Changed His Brain. In the book, he discusses how science proves the existence of God.
The connection between neurology and biology, and how your ‘biography’ becomes your ‘biology’.
How meditation truly works.

In Teal’s own words
About Raising your vibration:
“If you are dedicated to raising your vibration, you can’t afford the luxury of a negative thought. However, never resist a negative thought; just accept that you are where you are, express it in a healthy way and move in the direction to feeling better emotionally.”
About Letting go and finding our hidden positivity:
“We all want to find the key to letting go. After all, this is one of the most important steps when it comes to any form of healing. But most of us get stuck when it comes to letting go because we are missing a puzzle piece relative to what we cannot let go of. That puzzle piece is the piece that ties it all together and it is in fact, the key to letting go. The missing puzzle piece is the hidden positive intention.
Every action that is ever taken and every belief that is ever held is taken and held for one reason and one reason only; because the person taking that action, or holding that belief, is convinced that it will enable them to feel better in some way. Another way of saying this is that we only ever engage in something that we think serves us positively in some way. But often this positive intention is buried so deep that we do not have conscious awareness of it. Our healing depends on us being brave enough to uncover and be honest with ourselves about those buried positive intentions. And our ability to live in an open, compassionate way towards others depends on our ability to recognise those buried positive intentions in them.”

Miracles & Magic
Adopt a miraculous new perception.
By Stewart Pearce
Miracles occur when human discernment marries with divine reasoning. Miracles happen when we make intercession to the Source and the Angels, requesting that they intervene in our human predicament. Miracles are experienced when the magic of Divine Love is expressed, and in a trice, universal force flows, distorting the space-time continuum, providing a moment of accelerated Kairos – a fissure in time when the light of the miraculous pours through, creating magical opportunities for radical change.
Recently I was in New York, creating expansion for the Angels of Atlantis project, determining how the collective consciousness of the city could open further to these remarkable Light Beings. During this visit I was called to consult an extraordinary client, currently working for the United Nations.
Post consultation, the client invited me into the Chamber of the UN, to listen to a debate concerning Global Sustainability. The debate was intense, with notable eco-scientists, and environmentalists vociferously engaged in a nihilistic argument of how the earth is moving towards the edge of a precipice – to global destruction.
Suddenly, like a flash of super nova, a beautiful Pakistani woman rose, and in forthright tones spoke of the fact that nothing new was being introduced, and that this was not a time for rhetoric, but a time for Miracles. For ten minutes she spoke about the nature of miracles and magic, requesting that if we gave as much energy to our dreams, as to our fears, we would change Global consciousness.
This miracle radically defined, that a change of perception may revolutionise current opinion.
Being Brilliance
By Dee Wallace
This big light of mine, let it shine!
Being brilliance in this world is not possible if we have dimmed our light, because the light is who we are. And if all physical manifestation happens by lowering light into form through thought, we are the light, that chooses the thought, that creates light taking form. We are, ultimately, the light of the world. Through our focus and choice, we form the world of us, and that world is then pooled into the collective whole and affects the whole. Wow. Big responsibility.
Or big blessing. It all depends on your perspective and your choice about how you want to look at it. And even in this choice, we are forming the light that somehow affects our world, and ultimately the rest of the world too.
I like to think of the light that I am as being a blessing. Hmmmm. I am a blessing to this world. That thought certainly encourages my light to get a little bigger, a little brighter. It feels good and empowering to know we light up life, and, like a child encouraged with love to create his achievement, we want to expand and light up our lives even more.
I can feel when my light turns down because someone frightens me, hurts me, ridicules me, embarrasses me or somehow disrespects me in some way. I become smaller, I suppose to protect myself. I guard my heart and shrink, or close my heart in retaliation and anger. It doesn’t feel good. I can’t feel the love and the bliss and the high I feel when I live as the authentic light that I am; then I feel….big. In a good way; big and expansive and sure. Sure that I am secure and blossoming in this world. And that is the experience of my life that I choose. I surmise that the C word is the greatest factor in creating the brilliance of us. Choice. It really is all about choice. It is the greatest single action that creates the brilliance of us. The choice to choose, regardless of who or what affects us. Remember, the light is the very basis of creation itself. Without the light and focus and choice, creation doesn’t happen. So we might as well be the ones choosing what to focus the light on. Because it will be focused: if we don’t create ourselves, we become the created upon.
So why wouldn’t we automatically choose to do that? Because we have been taught to be small. Some people have called it humble. Being small certainly doesn’t threaten people, and we all know who gets the rewards: the meek. They told us so.
They were wrong. And we all know it. The brighter we shine the more grace of power we can be in this world. Let’s choose to turn up, shout out and send out the biggest, bawdiest, most brilliant light that we are. Let’s choose to shine our authentic selves so brightly that the darkness simply does not have a chance. Let’s love ourselves enough to be the light of the world. In joy. In grace. And in the power of the light.
Dee Wallace has worked as an author, teacher, dancer and actress in film, television and the stage for over 30 years (E.T., Cujo, The Howling). Her book, Bright Light, tells that tale, and shares the spiritual lessons she has learned from a life in acting.
By Trevor Neilson
A little noticed piece of news emerged in the world of philanthropy in February. A dozen new billionaires signed onto the Buffett-Gates Giving Pledge. The Pledge, established in 2010 by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, encourages the world’s wealthiest individuals to give at least half of their wealth to charity rather than passing it on to their children. With the addition of these signatories, 105 billionaires have now committed a total of $500 billion to philanthropy.
This news is important for a few key reasons. First, Gates and Buffett have done a great job of engaging people around the world to donate their wealth to charity. Most people never thought the Pledge would succeed given the entrenched tradition of passing wealth along to one’s children. Even in a country like the U.S. that prides itself upon equality of opportunity, inheritances have historically comprised about 20-50% of wealth accumulation – a tradition that stifles ambition and innovation. The fact that 105 billionaires have signed on, including the latest Pledgers who represent 8 different countries, is an encouraging indicator that the culture of wealth is shifting.
As we look to the future, we have reason to hope that this increased commitment to charitable giving will become the social norm. Imagine a society in which extreme giving is the new status symbol for the wealthy. The Pledge could evolve into a giving competition and eventually a Global Philanthropy Award on par with the Nobel Prize.
We’ve already seen the concept take shape through the X Prize, which promotes technological innovations for the benefit of humanity. This model of incentivizing philanthropy through competition and peer pressure has proven successful. If we can leverage it further, we stand to change the landscape of philanthropy worldwide.
Audio Interview with Louise L. Hay for Positive Life
Louise L. Hay is known as one of the founders of the self-help movement. Her first book, Heal Your Body, was published in 1976, before it was fashionable to discuss the connection between the mind and body. Through Louise’s healing techniques and positive philosophy, millions have learned how to create more of what they want in their lives, including more wellness in their bodies, minds, and spirits.
Her next book, published in 1984 and titled, You Can Heal Your Life, reached the New York Times bestseller list, remaining there for 13 consecutive weeks. Twenty years later, due to her appearances on the Oprah Winfrey Show, You Can Heal Your Life was again on the New York Times bestseller list.
Louise now heads Hay House, a successful publishing company. Hay also continues to lecture around the world, recently returning from trips to Great Britain, Australia and Canada.
