What’s important to me is helping people transcend the obstacles that seem to rob them of personal peace. To that end, I design retreats, classes and workshops aimed at giving you hands on tools to restore, protect & sustain your personal peace. If you have a group you would like me to design a private retreat for, let me know. And, if you have an idea for a retreat or class topic, don’t be shy. Share.

Discover Your Heart’s Message 2010 Mini-Tele-Retreat
In many spiritual traditions, seekers benefit from contemplating aphorisms aimed at illuminating divine wisdom in support of spiritual growth. As a seeker contemplates a single message, aphorism or sutra for an extended period of time, something alchemical happens. With deeper and deeper reflection, the message teaches and reveals more and more Truth.
On this mini-retreat, you will be ushered into the territory of your heart – - – an experience where you can discern a message from YOUR heart – - – a sutra from your soul.
Join me, along with other like minded people, and access your heart’s intelligence to discover your soul’s wisdom for guiding your journey through the upcoming year, 2010.

Hey Melanie! Thanks for the email – I love your site. I am very interested in the meditation classes, especially those that will include the Zpoint process. What can I do to find out more about dates and times?
Thanks,
Elizabeth
Hey Elizabeth,
Thanks for reading! If you sign up for my newsletter on the sidebar, you’ll be notified about classes. The next class using ZPoint will be on August 11. Be sure to sign up. Here’s a link to the sign up page: http://www.illuminedlife.com/Illumined_Life/Z_Point_Stress.html
Soon, I’ll be offering a class, “Make Peace with WHO You Are.” I’ll share more details on that in the next week or so.
Hi Melanie; I would like to take the Telecourse; can I do it from my cell phone? I have an appointment that ends at noon, so would be away from home and maybe joining the call a few minutes late.
Love,
Karuna
Hi Karuna,
Sometimes cell phones cause a little problem on the line so I say, let’s give it a whirl. If it doesn’t work, the call will be recorded or you can join later.
Hi Melanie,
What is the zpoint process and how long will each call of the 3-part series starting on Aug. 28th last?
Thanks,
Susan
Enjoyed meeting you at the EWomen Networking conference.
Hi Susan,
The ZPoint Process is an amazing and easy to use tool to release stress and clear old patterns and ways of being. If you signed up for my free tele-class, I introduced Z Point there. Sometime today or tomorrow I’ll be sending a link to that free class to everyone who signed up. If you don’t receive that email, just let me know and I’d be happy to make sure you receive a link to the recording.
Each class will last about 1 hour. We may spill over a few minutes until 1:15 on the first class. And, each class will be recorded and you will receive a copy of the recording.
Finally, I so enjoyed meeting you as well.
Take care!
Melanie, I am not too e-mail savy but I did want to down load the call and thr ebook, however I don’t find a link in the email or on your web site. Help
Hi Shirley, I believe my VA sent you a link to the call. Please pop me an email (melanie@peacefruit.com) if you’ve not yet received it.
