What is your definition of a “reality” show? Do these programs reflect the health and wellbeing that is needed in our world today? Would you rather watch a transformational program that has the ability to not only create “passion magnets” in millions of viewers but also create a new “real” world?
What if together we could create a new reality in which we help people discover their passion and share their gifts with the world? Sounds wonderful, doesn’t it?
Here is your chance. We are so excited to have the opportunity to make this happen, but we need your help.
Can you imagine a TV talk show based on The Passion Test? Chris and I can, and that’s what we’re hoping to accomplish in our video submission for the Oprah Winfrey Network’s competition series, Your OWN Show: Oprah's Search for the Next TV Star. Oprah producers are looking for a new talk show concept, and we can’t think of a better way to get people involved in the Global Passion Initiative, and live the life of their dreams!

| Reply Thanks to The Passion Test, I've been following my passions and have had amazing things happen, including funding my own music label, traveling the world, profound spiritual development and much more! Thank you Janet! I have hoped you and Oprah would work together in some way and I look forward to seeing it happen!
In a previous post, “Using the Passion Test to Create Your Ideal Career”, we talked about our journey of teaching. When we first began taking people through the Passion Test, our main goal was to enrich their lives by helping them find their purpose in life. What we learned along the way was that not only did it create many incredible miracles in so many lives, but also by teaching the Passion Test principles, our own lives spontaneously came to life even more fully. They say if you ever want to become an expert on a subject, commit to teaching it to someone else. What we have found is that the more we teach the process, the more we find ourselves unable to do anything other than live our passions.
The same has been true for one of our Certified Facilitators. Here is her story…
Dear Chris and Janet,
About a year ago I presented The Passion Test to my staff at a Fortune 500 company. I told my Human Resources department about it and they invited Janet and me to present it to a corporate conference inOregon. From there, I got several invitations to do other staff workshops.
I proceeded to take people through The Passion Test within one of the corporation’s cultural organizations, which resulted in another staff workshop and an article being written in that group’s world-wide e-newsletter. Shortly after that publication was distributed, I was invited to speak to that group’s California division. I had officially taken my show on the road!
How can I be sure that my passions will continue to stay in my life as others come into my life? They may not totally agree with my passions.
Answer:
Your passions are like breadcrumbs, leading you to discover who you really are. As your life changes and you learn more about yourself, your passions will shift as well. That is why we recommend that you take The Passion Test at least every six months because each time you will discover more about yourself. As you peel back more of these layers you will find all of the natural talents and joys you have to offer to others.
Thad, Perth, Australia, June 29, 2010 at 1:03 AM
| Reply Absolutely agree! It's a process, and I love the analogy of peeling back the layers because it's not a one-off thing... it's a constant adventure of discovering ourselves and what brings us closer to who we really are.
I believe that connecting to our passions, and truly expressing who we are and what sets us on fire, that's the only way to truly be considered ALIVE.
That's what the people around us - in our families, in our communities and in our circles of influence - need: people who are really living and giving of the best of themselves with passion!
Keep on sharing your phenomenal message with the world!

Your inspiration is contagious and it has touched my life in so many ways. Whenever I'm told I can't, I think of the interview you did a while back,(I remember the pointers you spoke of) and that gets me back on track. With much appreciation,
Lori Wada, Pahoa, Hawaii USA, June 1, 2010 at 8:09 PM
| Reply Much Mahalo for spreading the message of how connecting to our passion, our heart, constantly leads us to our joy that expands outward, and allows us to grow along with it's journey. There is great peace and freedom when we stop trying to fly against the wind and learn to soar with it! ...It is my intention to connect with as many people as possible who have made the path of passion their journey, and to spread the love and joy that is found in it's center. I look forward to meeting you along the journey...
How do I let go of my doubting mind to allow myself to see ideas beyond what I know?
Answer:
Your doubting mind arises from beliefs you hold. As we say in The Passion Test book, there are only three things that prevent anyone from living their passions: false beliefs, false concepts and false ideas.
Often these beliefs are tied to low self-esteem.
In coaching thousands of people on The Passion Test, the one thing we can be sure we will find when someone is having a hard time believing they could fulfill their passions (or in your case, see great ideas) is a case of low self-esteem. This is nothing to be embarrassed about because it is common and it is manageable.
Wil, San Diego, June 10, 2010 at 12:31 PM
| Reply Money Is Energy!
As Einstein stated "Everything from what we consider matter is ENERGY!"
When you keep thinking about "debt" you will vibrate that energy and become a magnet for the things you DON'T want.
Also, when people try to reprogram their minds they start by "active thinking" instead of "passive reprogramming".
Trying to change your mind through repetition works but it like trying to save a drowning man by giving him a glass of water.
It's NOT effect - and the evidence in that is all the failed attempts at change by people who really desire a better life.
The core of your beliefs are also the primary place for your own "resonating" energy.
Change that energy - and change will follow.
Hope this helps all who seek it!

| Reply Janet,(also my wife's name),I am more than double your age, I know the area, Santa Clara Valley, you live in, I took the EST training in April 1977, in San Jose, before that I had done SIMS, I also did 6 months of marriage counseling, read many self help books, had family counseling, these things I did came from having a really bad marriage, 5 kids, and no way out. 3 years after the EST training, I met woman who didn't care if I had a wife and 5 kids, so a month later the new woman and I moved in together, with her two kids. She is Jan, and we are still together after 30 years, and happy to be together. I'm not real happy here in Arizona, because the summer heat keeps us indoors all day. Our new house is worth less than when we bought it, and taking all our money with it. Money has been the big downfall for me, without money to do things, and cool weather, we're just stagnant, Jan doesn't seem to mind, she is just happy to be where I am. So you see, I am past most of the things you are espousing. things may be changing for us soon, my dad died recently, and we will be getting a little money, this will help to make my passions come true - they do take money !

| Reply Greetings Bill!
Your comment resonated with me. Money! We should create a seminar together with our combined learnings on how to stay poor permanenty! Remember what Janet did in the intro video? She burned her bridges. She had a 'cool, money-generating' job where she didn't/couldn't deliver. So she burned that job. Next point. False beliefs and non-serving programs are totally convincing - I certainly believe and defend all of my lunatic decisions! So - meant in a spirit of love and sharing - I invite you to look at your beliefs too. You state the summer heat in Arizona prevents you from being all you can be (in Janet/Chris lingo 'living your passions'). I have never been to Arizona, however I am prepared to bet that not everyone in AZ fails to thrive financially due to heat. Either the belief you hold is false, or the place is toxic to you so you choose to go. Burn the bridge, Bill. Looks to me as if you know your passions, so you have your intention. Next step is Attention to manifest your intention. Chris said "What you put your attention on grows stronger in your life. To create, take action because action engages attention." You and I know this to be true. My mistake has been to justify my inactions and I make such convincing arguments that even I (especially I) believe them. Result: ongoing focus on poverty. I have quite a few false beliefs to burn - if you look east tonight you may even see the flames - I lit a 'lies' bonfire three days ago and it is still burning! I wish you the courage to make the decisions which will bring you passion, ease and joy! Adieu de la belle France! Claire

| Reply Hi Claire,
your post was very open and self critical and honest. I am sure many people who have read it will agree that you just stated what so many of us "suffer" from. Self doubt, it creeps in for me and messes up my day. I have been staying focused fabulously for days and bang there it comes....But the best part of your message is burning the bridges...that's where I am right now and I have burned quite a few, one measly bridge is still intact and I am feeling the fear throughout my body. I am constantly picking myself up, refocus and remind myself that there is no other option for me than "Always choosing in favor of my passion".
Similar to Bill, I have told myself that I can't function properly, hence live a passionate life in the humid summer heat of Cairns. That's bull... I know now. I won't run away..I rather change my belief about it. Thank you Claire.
You have made my day, simply by knowing that others are also struggling with it, but keep on walking in the right direction.
Living a passionate life truly is a journey and it won't happen magically overnight.
I yell out across the ocean..."Never loose focus Claire and always choose in favor of your passion, no matter how scary..
Thank you for your uplifting post!!

| Reply More than self doubt I will add Poor SELF TALK and POOR SELF VISION
How can I stay focused on my pursuit of the ideal life to work smarter not harder?
Answer:
Often times when we find ourselves working harder and not smarter it is a result of a lack of focus. When we are clear about what we need to accomplish and the initial steps we need to take we accomplish tasks in an efficient way.
“When you are clear, what you want will show up in your life, and only to the extent that you are clear.”
Dr. Andrew Newberg and Mark Waldman explain that the brain can only prioritize a few ideas and goals at any one time. “The clearer you become about what you truly love and desire, the stronger your conscious intention becomes, and this helps the rest of your brain respond in an organized way.”
It is not that I have a lack of passion, but how do I integrate it into my life so that I have it all?
Answer:
In our attempts to have it all, we can sometimes find ourselves shifting our focus from one thing to another, dedicating spurts of energy and effort on certain areas of our lives at a time. We may work a great deal and not pay as much attention to our family, or work on our physical wellness while not taking time for spiritual growth. The great thing about finding your five passions is that you can create a way of living that keeps you focused on those top five easily. As we often say…
We get many similar questions from our tele-class participants about how to make a career out of following their passions. Often times what we learn about these individuals is they all have a common passion to help others have more fulfilling and successful lives. What they are not sure about is where to start, what to teach and how to create an income from their passions.
When we first began taking people through the Passion Test our main goal was to enrich their lives by helping them find their purpose in life. What we learned along the way was that not only did it create many incredible miracles in so many lives, put also by teaching the Passion Test principles, our own lives spontaneously came to life even more fully. They say if you ever want to become an expert on a subject, commit to teaching it to someone else. What we have found is that the more we teach the process, the more we find ourselves unable to do anything other than live our passions.

My life seems great all week long when I get up and go to work but seems to fall apart on the weekend. It is very easy to do nothing. How do I achieve a purposeful life outside of work?
Answer:
It appears that there are a couple of factors working, or not working here, so let’s break it down and deal with them separately. Then we’ll show you how they are related.
There are times when our focus goes to the current state of our government, employment and economic issues. It seems difficult to avoid the news stories and not feel affected by what they could mean for our lives personally. So how do you continue to live a passionate life when your mind gets stuck on negative situations or fearful thoughts distract you from a joyful life experience?
What you put your attention on grows stronger in your life.
In The Passion Test book we shared feedback we’ve received from Dr. Andrew Newberg and Mark Waldman, leading neuroscientists, as they describe how the neural connections in our brain are affected when we give attention to a particular belief.
“Putting attention on negative beliefs about yourself or your environment will result in stronger neural connections, and those beliefs, in turn will become more and more true for you. It literally becomes your inner reality, and that, of course, is going to influence the outer reality as well.”
Where Passion is Primary and Joy and Fulfillment are Everyday Experiences
The world is changing. Have you noticed?
Following your passions is no longer a luxury.
It's not only the path to success and a fulfilling life. It's necessary to compete in today's flat world.
The Passion Test is a simple, yet powerful way for anyone to discover what matters most to them in their life. When you consistently choose in favor of those things, your passions, you will find yourself filled with a sense of purpose.
This site is filled with information and tools to help you live your passions and effortlessly discover your destiny. Explore it and begin living the life you were meant to live.

Amazon Rainforest Journey - A Soul Stirring, Life Changing Experience
There are many ways to participate in the powerful work the Pachamama Alliance is doing to preserve our rainforests and to create a sustainable world for all of us. One of the most fun is to participate in one of the journeys to the Amazon that the Alliance sponsors each year.
You'll travel to the very cradle of creation, the Amazon Rainforest, and become one of a handful of people to experience a direct, intimate encounter with the Achuar — an ancient people in the early stages of their relationship with the modern world.
You’ll experience the soul stirring awe of being in the heart of one of the largest untouched stands of primary rainforests in the world. You’ll learn what it's like to live in harmony with the Earth directly from the elders and shamans of one of the world's oldest and most intact remaining dream cultures.
To be able to meet and participate in partnership with such a remarkable people, in such a miraculous place, is a rare and profound opportunity. This will be an unforgettable and life-changing adventure.
Kapawi Lodge is the result of a unique business partnership between the Achuar and a visionary Ecuadorian tour company. Built in traditional Achuar style and located in the heart of their remote rainforest territory, Kapawi is one of the most awe-inspiring lodges on earth. It was designed to enable travelers from the modern world to visit one of the most remote and biologically diverse regions of the world, while enjoying the comfort and safety of an award-winning ecotourism facility, recognized for setting new standards for environmental and cultural sensitivity. After 12 years of successful operation and training, Kapawi Lodge has been transferred into the full ownership and operation of the Achuar people according to the original vision.
The Andes
Several days before and after our time in the rainforest will be spent in the majestic Andean mountain highlands. Here we will immerse ourselves in the charm, culture, and scenery of the Andes, spending our time exploring, hiking, soaking in volcanic-fed hot springs, visiting colorful outdoor marketplaces, and meeting with renowned Quechua shamans noted for their healing powers.

The Healthiest (and most comfortable) Bed in the World
Your Choice – Indoor or Outdoor Floating Bed
What if you could actually have The Bed Of Your Dreams?
Now You can! It’s The Floating Bed - a better way to sleep, relax and recuperate.
How is your sleep? 70 million Americans have chronic sleep problems, and few are getting ideal rest.
If you are sleeping like the “average American,” your health and well-being are compromised. Modern life, stress - many things contribute to the epidemic of unhealthy sleep. But good sleep is highly important.
Poor sleep causes physical and psychological problems which you may not be aware of. Studies show that people who are not well rested are more likely to have accidents, be irritable & argumentative, have problems learning and at work, and succumb to diseases.
Better sleep can dramatically improve your health, & help you become more successful.
So how can your sleep be more beneficial, and enjoyable too?
Even better, what if your bed could actively contribute to your health, not just lie there?
As it turns out, nature solved the problem a long time ago. It’s called Omni-Pendulum or “Floating Motion.” This is a major, scientifically proven sleep & health breakthrough.
This patented technoplogy provides better sleep & relaxation than other beds. This is why the Floating Bed hangs from one central overhead point. It was designed from a blank slate, not just for looks, but for maximum benefits. And it feels great too - you feel almost weightless, as if you are floating.
What does Floating Motion do? There are many benefits.
First, it is a proven, natural sleep aid. Why? It is the same safe motion that we felt, gently floating in our mother’s womb. Nature selected this motion for its calming effect. It has positive effects on the limbic, circulatory, and other systems. It activates a deep, powerful relaxation response. Mothers intuitively rock babies from head to toe, using this same floating motion. Every mother knows that rocking is good for a baby. But science has found that this motion is equally beneficial for adults too.
Rocking increases blood and most importantly, lymphatic circulation. This motion decreases back pressure in the circulatory system, and noticeably reduces soreness, aches, back pain, and swelling throughout the body, in minutes. Reducing swelling is a fundamental principle of healing.
Why is Omni-Pendulum “Floating” Motion best?
Our bed arcs slowly, gently, smoothly up as it swings, to hold you perfectly in place (just like your mother’s arms). This is the only motion that does not cause “waves” in your Vestibular System (inner ear). Because you are not tossed about, this is the only “safe” motion, & your body instantly recognizes it. You automatically relax in a way that you will not with any other motion.
However, reading about it is not the same as feeling it. After a night (or even a few minutes) of this gentle motion, your body will understand it much better! Everyone has this “ah-ha” experience on The Floating Bed. Even if you do not understand why, you instantly, deeply, relax.
Where can I put it?
People are putting them indoors in the bedroom, living room, guest room, etc. They are wonderful on the porch, or in the yard as an outdoor bed, or as an extra “room.” They can be used as a main bed, as a sofa, occasional bed, guest bed, or nap bed. This is one of the most practical pieces of furniture you can own.
Testimonials
“The finishing touch on this magical place however, was the Floating Bed. It was like being rocked to sleep in the arms of God.” - A.L, guest at Ojai Secret Garden Hotel.
“So what is your favorite part of your home makover?” - Senator Diane Feinstein.
“My Floating Bed!” - Ashley (on ABC’s Extreme Makover, Home Edition).
“My deck is now the most popular room in our home. I was just buying a bed, but we got a sofa, babysitting device, and created a guest bedroom too. It also helps my restless leg syndrome, and I sleep much better. What a bargain!” - Q. W.

Mantras in Motion - Deva Premal & Miten 2010
Musically, Deva Premal and Miten come from two very different worlds. Deva, German-born, classically trained, grew up in an environment imbued with eastern spirituality, where mantras were chanted as bedtime lullabies.
Miten, from England, spent the 60’s and 70s as a singer/songwriter in the heady world of rock ‘n roll, recording with The Kinks, and touring with Fleetwood Mac, Ry Cooder, Lou Reed, and others.
They met in India in 1990 at the ashram of the controversial mystic, Osho. Two decades later, their shared journey into mantra, meditation and love, has taken them from yoga studios to audiences of thousands, in concert halls, cathedrals and music festivals worldwide. At the time of writing, their CDs have sold almost 1,000,000 copies.
The Deva Premal and Miten World-Mantra Tour 2010 includes over 60 concerts, with visits to New Zealand, Australia, Scotland, England, Germany, Netherlands, Greece, France, Poland, Slovenia, Hungary, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Latvia, Switzerland, Russia, Czech Republic—and a whirlwind North American tour, co-headlining with fellow chant master Krishna Das, that took them to major theatres in 15 cities in 22 days.
They have received accolades from such luminaries as best-selling author Eckhart Tolle, who calls their music “pure magic.” Hollywood icon Cher cites Deva’s album, “The Essence.” as “My favourite CD to do yoga to.” His Holiness the Dalai Lama is reported to listen to their music during his private time and, when hearing Deva & Miten chant his favourite mantra at a private audience, exclaimed, “Beautiful music, beautiful…!” Motivation guru, Anthony Robbins describes their music as “Passionate and powerful.”

The Maharishi Ayurveda approach focuses on identifying imbalances in the body and mind, and restoring balance to support the innate healing and self repair process within the body. The vaidya (Ayurvedic doctor) will employ the Ayurvedic technique of nadivigyan (pulse assessment) to detect imbalances before they develop into more significant concerns. With three fingers on the pulse, the Ayurvedic expert can read a detailed story of your physiology.
Acknowledged by the World Health Organization, this technique has been used as a vehicle for early detection of imbalance and plays an important role in the prevention of disease.
Maharishi Ayurveda (MAPI) is an ancient, integrated system of natural and effective health care. We provide a wide range of authentic herbal formulas and other modalities for achieving perfect health. By combining the best of modern science and the purity of the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, MAPI offers profound health solutions for general well being and rejuvenation for men and women as well as addressing special health concerns associated with emotional balance, sleep, allergies, digestion, the heart, joints and muscles, to name a few.
One unique aspect of Maharishi Ayurveda is the application of an age-old diagnostic technique by specially trained ayurvedic physicians called Vaidyas. MAPI Vaidyas employ the technique of pulse diagnosis to evaluate physiological imbalances and to prescribe diet and herbal formulas that improve the quality of life and health.

Nature's Most Beneficial, Rejuvenating Water Alkalize, Mineralize and Energize your LIFETM
When life began, streams of water flowing over rocky surfaces caused an interaction of life forces now known as ionization. LIFE Ionizers recreates this scientific ionization phenomenon to form nature's perfect water.
Electrolysis is created by sending an electrical current through the platinum coated titanium plates, which causes the water ions to split into two distinct acidic & alkaline streams as it passes through the system.
This water is naturally oxygenated and energized into powerful super-hydrating micro-clustered water molecules. Ionized water is fortified with age-defying, mineralized anti-oxidants to boost metabolism and speed the release of harmful heavy metals, toxins and fat cells from the body. Ionized alkaline water also neutralizes excess acids to balance the body's pH.
Alkalize & feel alive, refreshed and renewed • Super-Hydrating • Feel More energy • Eliminate toxins • Neutralize acids • Balance your pH • Mineralize nutrients
Find out how Ionized water can make a huge difference in your life. Nature's most beneficial, rejuvenating water flows right from your tap. Let the fountain of LIFE™ flow from your faucet.
We believe so highly that alkaline ionized water will change your life, that we are giving away a Free E-Book written by medical professionals who recognize the growing epidemic of acidosis—and how alkaline water can help to reverse those toxic conditions. By reading this book, you will begin to learn about the wonderful health benefits of alkaline foods and LIFE Ionizer's™ empowered alkaline water immediately!
From this informative book you'll gain insight into how maintaining an alkaline body returns your body to the proper pH balance that it needs to function normally. Alkaline cell conditions reduce the need to retain pockets of fat and cholesterol within the cells to protect the body from damaging acids.
That is just one example of how living the alkaline lifestyle will change your life. Request the Free EBook, "The Benefits of Alkaline Water" today, and discover the miracle for yourself!
Some more examples of the amazing insights you'll gain from the e-book include:
