1. Institute of HeartMath – Has given us permission to use their evidence based Heart Lock-In™ Technique For January 2015!!
It is with amazing gratitude that I write this post…As I look at each of these events, I recognize how blessed we are because I have met so many wonderful people of such wisdom and depth. You will see below that we are collaborating with amazing individuals. There is an event for almost everyone here this month, and two events will be held in beautiful outdoor places. Please scroll all the way down…all of these events support our efforts to encourage intentions for peace research. Living The Discipline of Conscious Intentionality Bethany Gonyea, NUMINOUS founder Wednesday June 1, at 7:00 PM Unity Church of Albany
More and more research is documenting that our mental intentions have real world impact. As we come to grasp the enormous implications of this research, we learn how important it becomes that we create through conscious intention rather than unconscious default. With Intention…everything counts…so we need to be brutally honest with ourselves about what intentions we are emitting at all times. We also need be aware when we are going “unconscious.” Conscious Intention only works when we are inputting the same signal into the field repeatedly, and we don’t fall asleep at the wheel.
To skillfully sculpt our lives through intention, we need to learn the discipline of keeping our desires alive while facing life’s inevitable challenges. We will discuss the concept that maintaining conscious intentions is similar to living from the peaceful eye of a storm. We may see all softs of things flying in the wind but learn not to attach to them and fly away ourselves. We will also discuss what is our role in creating our lives and how to interface skillfully with the Loving Intelligence that connects us all, to sculpt a lives of the deepest meaning and engagement.

The Jaguar Path: the Benefits of Shamanic Skills in Every Day Life – Part 1 Ray Crist, Shaman and Founder of The Jaguar Path Yoga School Wednesday June 8, at 7:00 PM Unity Church in Albany
Shamans are men and women who heal themselves an train others to cultivate their power and abilities to heal by learning to shift into “second attention” First attention includes all of the ordinary information we experience through our five senses every day. However, Shamans also access information form “Second Attention”, which means they sense the additional energy and information flowing around the filters of our five senses. A power innate to all of us. “Listen to your heart” ” Trust your gut feeling” etc.
When we train to widen our perceptual fields we can access this wealth of information along with a quite confidence and inner peace. Through the tools you will learn you will accelerate your healing and find both courage and the capacity to make the changes your heart and higher self wants you to make!
By training our minds to sense and become aware of this subtle information the way shamans do, we gain access to a whole new breadth of information that can be highly advantageous to our path. We can even start to make changes without “white knuckling” them, because we have accelerated accessing the crisp clarity required for sudden change. As we learn how to access this occluded information we gain great wisdom and discernment, and our steps become more sure.
In this class, we are happy to invite back by popular demand, Ray Crist, founder of the Jaguar Path School of Yoga and Shamanism. Ray will be offering us some practical Shamanic tools and understandings He will share with us how Shamanic training can help westerners to: – Learn tools that will help heal past traumas – develop an abiding sense of personal power, integrity and authenticity – understand your place and purpose in life – develop innate psychic impressions (second attention) and understand them as a spiritual resource – deepen creative inspiration and expression – strengthen established regular spiritual practices – deepen your understanding of your personal relationships with nature, people, and living environments – experience deep mystical states that can elevate and stabilize you morally, spiritually and emotionally
This fall, Ray will be opening a chapter of his Jaguar Path Yoga School through NUMINOUS this fall, so we will be offering similar classes so that people can get a good experience of his work, and learn whether they would like to expand their training through the comprehensive 9 month program . Ray is a grounded teacher, who loves to combine contemporary life with established primordial wisdom practices to help us live lives of greater meaning, purpose, ease and majestic wonder.

An Introduction to the Avatar Material – Living Deliberately Anna Witt. Avatar Master Wednesday June 15, at 7:00 PM Unity Church of Albany
In this class we are fortunate to have Anna Witt, master of the extremely profound Avatar materials synthesized and collected by Harry Palmer. The Avatar® Course is a set of practical, effective tools that allows people, in a very short time, to identify and change the conclusions, decisions, and agreements that are shaping their lives. Participants set new goals or revive old ones, and use their rediscovered powers, create opportunities,motivation, and the courage to pursue dreams.
“Avatar is a non – religious practice that allows a person to reconnect with their true spiritual self. And along the way, students discover the source of issues, problems and concerns, learn ways to resolve and eliminate those issues, problems and concerns, and as a consequence gain the ability to create the life they want. This is known as living deliberately.”
So, Avatar doesn’t really discuss what is consciousness per se, but it provides you with fundamentals tools on how your consciousness works.
“Allow yourself the gift of universal perspective. Wisdom will appear and your actions will be motivated by an intuitive, spontaneous, benevolent intent. There is no regret. Do useful things. Help others for the delight of helping others. Concentrate on adding value to the world rather than consuming the world.” – Harry Palmer, author of the Avatar materials

1.14.17 – Bethany Gonyea – Collective Emotion and “Global Coherence”
Please consider donating if these meditations are helpful to you. We are rapidly expanding and could really use more financial support to keep up with growth. You can donate here at: https://www.peacefulcities.org/donate/, or send a check made to Numinous, c/o Bethany Gonyea (this is important otherwise they don’t recognize the PO box) at PO Box 1322, Clifton Park, NY 12065.
Interestingly, I am finding myself having trouble finding words to write, because I am overwhelmed with unspeakable gratitude.
Thanks to everyone for participating in Albany Peace Project 2017. We asked for people to step up and become “heroes” this year, and definitely more people responded!! Whether or not we reached the tipping point is yet to be evaluated, however, approximately 125-150 more people participated each day this year! Thank you so much for hearing the call to lift the world and doing your part to facilitate Global Coherence.
As you can learn from the Institute of Heartmath’s video, gobal coherence is a very real possibility and phenomenon, and you have all heard your Hero’s call to catalyze a quickening of it. Please inspire your friends and family to do the same. I want to acknowledge you for taking personal responsibility to better your own life and others. As you continue to ‘vote with your heart’ I can tell you from personal experience, you will only continue to reap more benefits of of this historic work. I can also vouch that the benefits you reap get better as well!
The Albany Peace Project is evolving into the Resonant Peaceful Cities Project, and I am working toward having the peaceful cities “cross pollinate.” Our initial peaceful cities are Schenectady, Boston, Phoenix, Mexico City and possibly Dallas and Chicago. These cities have spontaneously emerged with only a brief one minute video tagged on at the end of a webinar last August with Dr. Joe, and we are still working hard to catch up with demand. I am confident that when we do officially launch the Resonant Peaceful Cities Project and “open for business” we will be flooded with inquiries.
At least initially, we are not charging any fees to these cities, and we are funding meeting these additional demands through Numinous. I am starting my sixth year of still working only as a volunteer for Numinous. I strongly urge you to attend Numinous events or offer a small monthly donation to help us fund this rapid expansion. You can make a small recurring donation at this link: albanypeaceproject.com/donate/
This is a unique opportunity where common ordinary citizens can “vote” with their heart and have their intentions recorded and documented!! This documentation of coherence research is going to be what is required to mitigate the current tide of relentless meaningless human suffering. We need your help to provide the documentation that this work works! Evidence based” tools are what is required to garner support, so lets continue to raise awareness and add to the current research as an independent organization to duplicate other research and give the world something to talk about….or should I say, something positive to talk about!
You have great power to positively influence history. I hope you start with participating in the Phoenix Peach Project launching this summer.
Volunteers are desperately needed. We will have our first volunteer meeting in mid March to begin planning for Albany Peace Project 2018. Please look for more information on that soon.
Thanks to Kirk Harbinger again for introducing us to the term, common coherence! Let’s make coherence a household word.
We hope to have a grand opening for the Resonant Peaceful Cities Project that will be streamed among the cities, but until then check out our new website( still under construction) at: www.PeacefulCities.org
PLEASE NOTE: Albany Peace Project 2017 will be ending this Sunday.
If you want to continue to hear about Numinous events in Albany please visit the Numinous website and enter your email in the red box on the home page; www.NuminousOnline.com
****We are trying to separate the lists from Numinous and Albany Peace Project because we know there are non-local people on the Albany Peace Project list, and we don’t want to flood non-local people with local events.

This will be an introduction to the curriculum of a ten month master class with only ten slots open.

Have you ever stepped back from the latest spiritual book you were reading and say to your self, “What the heck and I reading?”
Or better yet, put a book cover over it?
NUMINOUS invites you to sit back, relax and laugh at the spiritual life with medium and comedian, Brandon Russ. Brandon will give us an entirely different perspective on the latest spiritual book we are reading so that we smile the next time we pick it up to read.
It is well known in shamanic traditions of indigenous healers that only when we can laugh and take ourselves lightly are we capable of any spiritual mastery. It is common for shamans to be “tricksters” and set up clever situations to challenge people to lull themselves out of their dull day dreams and remind themselves of the adventure everyday life really is. So come on out this Saturday evening, and laugh yourself to heightened consciousness…all for the greater good, of course!
More information coming soon….
SAVE THE DATE: Yoga Comedy Night – “I’d rather be in Samadhi”
Saturday evening May 13, at 6:00.
Shenendehowa Adult Community Center, 6 Clifton Common Court, Clifton Park, NY
Have you ever had a yoga wardrobe malfunction exposing a little too much?
Or pretend you don’t see that happening to someone else?
Have you ever felt impossibly inflexible as you see others in what would be considered anywhere else, a “compromising’ pose.
Have you ever gone to a hot yoga class and forgotten the clothes to change into after your shower?
When people start to attend yoga classes, they often want to spontaneously break out in laughter. It is natural. Then, we tend to get used to the language, the ambiance, and the poses, and unfortunately, it is tempting to take it a little too seriously! At this first annual yoga comedy night, we are going to remember why yoga is so funny! We will be inviting several yoga studios to participate! Please reach out if you are interested!

This Friday: Special Guest Speaker from Brazil…and New events
Best Meditation in town on Friday night! Guest Speaker: Kelsie Kenefick, Official Guide for John of God
Friday September 30 at 7:00 PM Shenendehowa Adult Community Center 6 Clifton Commons Court, Clifton Park, NY 12065
Internationally renowned healer, John of God, will be at Omega Institute in October 2016. John of God has been healing people for over 55 years. He is most famous for his ability to perform physical surgeries without anesthesia or sterilization.
John of God has been on multiple television shows throughout the world, and Oprah went to visit him personally. Wayne Dyer described in his book Wishes Fulfilled, how John of God healed him of leukemia…at a distance.
Kelsie Kenefick, author of Journey to the Spirit World, and official Casa Guide of John of God’s working residence in Brazil will be at Omega in Rhinebeck to help support the work of John of God where he sees approximately 1000 people a day.
I asked Kelsie if she would come lead us to into deep transformative meditation similar to the meditations that occur at the Casa where John of God sees thousands of people a day at no cost to participants.
It is this type of meditation, referred to as “current” that provides the powerful energetic charge through which John of God performed his healings. In fact, when the “current” gets too low,(especially when he is performing a more intricate surgery, for example a heart surgery) he will ask for more meditators to come sit in current. This is a special opportunity to experience sitting in the “current” of energy of the world’s most revered spiritual healers and Kelsie is highly skilled at leading such currents.
Kelsie will talk briefly about meditative current to help explain how miracles can occur when saints and doctors from the spirit world come through to heal. This brief introduction will be followed by a powerful healing meditation.
Kelsie is an amazing person who has been traveling between the US and Brazil for the last several years, and who outlined how she personally experienced the miracles of John of God in her book “Journey To The Spirit World.” It is her greatest joy to encourage others to have the experience. She will lead us in a deep cleansing current.
This is a special opportunity to experience sitting in the “current” of energy of one of the world’s most revered spiritual healers. Kelsie is skilled at leading such currents.
$35 Donation Appreciated
Please wear white, if possible.
Feel free to bring photos of others for healing to be brought to the Casa in Brazil to receive prayer for a year.

This is a dynamic, video based 10 week program that starts Monday 3/28. It teaches a new way of living centered on spiritual practices for an abundant life. The program focuses on 10 universal laws that govern an abundant life and encouraging participants to put these laws into daily practice.
The strength for participating in a group like this one is to have the support of a mastermind group that helps you with your goals, that helps you keep motivation up and installs and maintains new thought systems and behaviors.
TESTIMONIALS FROM NUMINOUS PARTICIPANTS
– Prosperity Plus allows you to become a person of increase. During the 10 week course, I became wealthy in every aspect of my life. I reconnected with family and friends, became more financially solvent, and enjoyed every day as a brand new opportunity to allow all that I want into my life.
– Amazing. Growth enhancing. Be aware that your prosperity may come in avenues you do not expect. Welcome it.
– The Prosperity Plus class has changed my way of relating to my own thoughts and feelings, and to the world around me. Gratitude is more common in my life, and my reaction is down; I am acting upon my life now. The best gift: a group of like minded people I am blessed to be able to call my friends. I am so grateful for being given this opportunity. I’m also in for the next class!
Here are 10 key principles that we will address:
Key 1: Honor your discontent. It holds the gift of your dream. Key 2: 5 questions to test whether your dream deserves you, your time and your life energy. Key 3: Powerfully Rebut your story: “up until now it might have been true, but now I am partnering with a higher power. I and God can do anything.” Key 4: Recognize fear for what it is: the border between the known and the unknown new you. In the unknown your answers lie. We have the solution to the problems we face. Key 5: Raise your vibration: bless what you have & be an agent of increase to others. Intentioning requires an elevating emotions. Key 6: Forgiveness work of self and others. It cleans your energy, removes blocks and leaks in your energy field, which creates a vacuum in your energy field for more positive things to come through. Key 7: Get in touch with the voice of inspired insight, divine wisdom. Then act. (ALWAYS go to the edge of the light you see). Key 8: Partner with someone to support each other in your dream. All things are possible to the ones that believe….others belief in ourselves helps us when we doubt Key 9: Failure is just feedback. It allows you to know more of who you are. Choose to be better over bitter. Don’t let failure have you. Key 10: Celebrate. It is about the process, and during it you discover who you are. That is what it is all about.
The power of this class is that of having a group that comes together each week to share their successes, which enhances everyone’s success. We will have lots of fun and sharing as we learn how to create a mindset that fosters abundance in all areas of life.
The cost is $50 for the video materials plus tithing to Numinous as advised by Marry Morrisey as part of the course

Using Meditation To Eliminate Emotional and Physical Pain
Tuesday, October 13 at 7:00 PM CHANGED TO THURSDAY OCTOBER 6 AT 7:00 PM Shenendehowa Adult Community Center 6 Clifton Commons Court Clifton Park, NY 12065
Often when people start to learn meditation, they may start with a formal process and formal instruction. This cookie cutter approach of course has it’s incredibly valuable benefits, however, it often doesn’t meet the needs of people going through incredible pain, either emotional or physical. People often attend these gatherings in crises and leave saying, “I tried meditation, it did not work for me.” That is unfortunate, because meditation offers amazing tools to reduce human suffering.
As former Director of the Albany TMJ & Facial Pain Center, Bethany Gonyea worked with car accident patients teaching them how to use their pain as a biofeedback instrument to accelerate consciousness. She uses these same skills to apply to emotional pain as well. Bethany will share with you techniques and understandings that she has been cultivating for 25 years to accelerate well being. It all begins with developing an “intolerance for feeling miserable.” She will be offering her basic techniques for personalizing meditation from her new audio book, “Using Meditation To Eliminate Emotional and Physical Pain” scheduled to be available by Christmas.
Leave with a digital download of a mediation that will reiniforce skills.

New event! Violence Interrupters: Film Screening and Panel Discussion Meet Everyday Heroes that Protect Albany Streets! Saturday October 22 at Hubbard Interfaith Sanctuary College of Saint Rose 959 Madison Ave, Albany 6:00-9:00 PM
The Interrupters documentary presents unforgettable profiles in courage, as three former street criminals in Chicago place themselves in the line of fire to protect their communities. The two-hour film follows the lives of these “Violence Interrupters,” who include the charismatic daughter of one of the city’s most notorious former gang leaders, the son of a murdered father, and a man haunted by a killing he committed as a teenager. As they intervene in disputes to prevent violence, they reveal their own inspired journeys of struggle and redemption. This work is the inspiration for our local Cure Violence chapter (formerly SNUG) funded through Trinity Alliance of the Capital Region.
After the documentary, we will have a panel discussion featuring real life Cure Violence Interrupterswho work heroically to reduce violence in Albany.
Donations will be collected to support local organizations that support peace in Albany. CANCELED FOR OCTOBER – TO BE RESCHEDULED IN THE FUTURE Transformational Leadership Summit – Full Day Retreat For Peace Leaders –

Shamanism and Law of Attraction Tuesday September 20 at 6:30-8:30 PM Shenendehowa Adult Community Center 6 Clifton Common Court Clifton Park, NY 12065
Current research is demonstrating intentions and prayers have measurable effects, however, shamans have understood this phenomenon for millennia and developed technologies to transmit intentions.
Shamans view the world as a matrix of energy and tell us that we all have a magnetic field around us called the luminous field. As we walk in life, our luminous field is constantly radiating out information to the world and the electromagnetic field of the planet. We are on one hand pulsing all our hopes and dreams and on the other emanating all our fears and worries. The law of attraction says what we put out is what we draw in. In this workshop Ray, founder of the Yoga Shamanic school, The Jaguar Path, will teach shamanic techniques to clear out the energy body and allow for each one of the participants to glow out in the world with confidence and ease so what they project in the world and attract in their life’s are only their hopes and dreams.
