Launching With Passion!
Those of you in the Vancouver and Nanaimo areas will have an opportunity to meet and speak with David and Sandey at their upcoming book launches. Monday February 6 they will be at the Vancouver Central Library, 350 West Georgia Street, in the Alma VanDusen and Peter Kaye Meeting Rooms (just below the main concourse) 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm. Making a great evening even better will be the music and heart of LoriAnn Speed, who will open the evening with her magical piano touch. If you don’t have your copy yet, not to worry Banyen Books is co-sponsoring the event, and will have copies of Living with Passion available for purchase and signing by the authors. Vancouver Island residents can join Sandey and David in launching their book Thursday February 16 at the Katz Martini Lounge 121 Bastion Street in Nanaimo. The Katz is a wonderful spot for an evening of conversation and connection, and when you add in the pleasure and stimulation of conversation and connection with David and Sandey...well, there lies all the ingredients for a great time!  And it seems like a better idea just to tell you it was absolutely amazing and show you the picture we took on the last morning (from the roof in the Phoenix Auditorium!) of PART of the entire group. A face is worth a thousand pictures! If you were here, you likely have your own collection of great stories, and if you weren’t here, you may be happy to know that many people took the time to include the spirit of absent friends like you...and to all of you, we hope you all come next time!

The Haven will again be part of this year’s Vancouver Wellness Show, Friday February 3 to Sunday 5 at “The Sails”, the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre. Given that the core of The Haven is relationship and communication, it just makes sense that we be part of opportunities for conversation! Since we began our association with the Vancouver Wellness Show in 2003, each year the response has grown. And what we like best is the conversations. The more we speak and listen with each other...the more common ground we find. The good folks who volunteer at our booth often end the day asking when they can come back. And the answer to our “why” always includes the pleasure of connection. After the 2004 show we began conversations with the Vancouver Wellness Show organizers about sponsoring a workshop series during the show. Our intention was to offer interactive sessions that would give people a more “hands-on” learning experience. Last year’s inaugural Workshop Series was the result of these conversations. This year’s presentations will be even better—a more private setting, a broader range of presenters, and best of all (from our slightly biased perspective!) there will be five presentations by members of our faculty. Carole Ames will make two presentations on The Quantum Laugh—Shifting with Humour, Friday at 1pm and Saturday at 11am; Rick Jackson’s presentation, Spiritual Intelligence: Integrating the Search for Meaning is scheduled for 2:15pm Saturday, followed at 5:15pm by Marlyn Farrell’s session based on her course Primal Whisperings. Sunday at 2pm Phil Winkelmans will present Tools for the Soul®. We would love to see you—come for the faculty sessions; drop by our booth anytime Friday February 3 through Sunday the 5th for a “conversation”, and pick up a copy of our new Spring 2006 catalogue!

The
response to David Raithby and Sandey McCartney’s new book about
Living
with Passion has been exceptional! Feedback we receive consistently
notes and appreciates their ability to translate the essence of their ideas
into impactful print. And when we consider David and Sandey’s own
passion for living, and willingness to share it with others, their success
really comes as no surprise!

January
14, the Haven Foundation Board unanimously endorsed Rick Jackson as Executive
Director. Rick’s years of association with The Haven as a member
of our core faculty and Board of Directors, blended with his 25-plus years
working with individuals and organizations to facilitate awareness and
growth, make him a natural for this new position. As Executive Director
he will oversee all aspects of The Haven.
