Australian Aboriginal Painting Workshop is Deeply Spiritual
Australian Aboriginal Painting Workshop is Deeply Spiritual
Hillsborough, NC (Vocus) October 27, 2009
In recent years, Australian Aboriginal paintings have had an important impact on the global art market. The bright, saturated colors and hypnotic designs reflect a people’s culture while resonating with intense spiritual power. Now anyone can learn this technique themselves with Laine Cunningham’s Dot-Dot Dreaming workshops and seminars.
During the seminar, Cunningham outlines the evolution of the Papunya-Tulu or Western Desert style. In 1970, a teacher on the Papunya reservation saw that as the Aboriginal elders died, the stories that preserved the Dreaming laws were lost. Since the lifestyle left little opportunity for elders to pass these stories on to the next generation, the entire system of values and cultural information was disappearing.
The men still created ground paintings of significant cultural stories. These installations use seeds, leaves and bird down to draw symbols on the ground. The men began replicating the ground paintings on large sheets of bark and the Western Desert style was born.
“Although originally embedded in a culture, the art form is so accessible people from any background can create their own paintings,” Cunningham says.
The swirling patterns of dots represent the seeds and stones that would have been used in the ground painting. This resulted in the form’s popular name, the dot-dot style. Since the ground paintings were viewed from above, the Western Desert images are also designed as if seen from above. Traditional symbols for waterholes, spears and digging sticks are commonly included.
The art form has since become a valued commodity worldwide. Since artists traditionally sang songs related to the story they were painting while they worked, the artwork can be imbued with extraordinary emotional and spiritual power. Viewing these paintings in person is always a moving experience.
Cunningham sets up her workshops and seminars so that creating the dot-dot painting becomes transformational. She introduces the participants to Australian stories, music and art, including live performances of the didgeridoo.
“Participants paint an important story from their own lives to help them celebrate important milestones, move through grief, or recognize an important life transition,” she says.
The paintings can be done on a board to mimic the bark on which these paintings were often done. Nowadays Aboriginal artists are opting for canvas, so Cunningham’s longer programs will often use canvas. When facilities and time allow, she helps groups create a ground painting with locally available seeds and plant material. The process can be used for team building, to dedicate a church or spiritual group more deeply to its purpose, or to heal a wound when a member of a community is lost.
Even when the classes consist of individuals who had no contact ahead of time, participants often say they are changed by the workshop. “The experience is often deeply meaningful and provides a visual reminder of their spiritual growth,” Cunningham says.
For over ten years, Cunningham has made the cultural wisdom and spiritual beliefs of native cultures like Australia’s Aboriginal tribes accessible to people from all nations. Her interest in Australia began some years ago. “The six months I spent camping alone in the Australian outback was a transformational experience that informs these workshops,” she says.
The programs she offers based on the Western Desert or dot-dot painting style include an hour-long presentation, two- to four-hour workshops, and weekend seminars. She also offers a workshop called Tjuringa: Spirit Boards and Sacred Objects. In this program, participants learn about and create their own Aboriginal spirit board, click sticks and bullroarer.
Cunningham’s Native American programs include the Four Winds workshops, a series of transformational seminars based on the seven sacred directions, half-day workshops on medicine bundles and medicine bags, using the dreamcatcher to fulfill lifelong goals, and programs that honor active duty soldiers and veterans.
She also offers sessions based on Huna, the Hawaiian system of spiritual beliefs. The most popular is The Three Hawaiian Minds, which teaches people how to consciously and deliberately generate abundance in all areas of their lives. She also offers healing touch workshops, seven elements seminars, and sea crystal (seashell) workshops.
These programs have been highly rated by a multicultural women’s foundation on White Earth reservation as well as churches, spiritual organizations and arts organizations. College, university, and public and private school students talk about her visits for years. Cunningham also offers inspirational and motivational keynotes and presentations.
Her work has garnered extensive attention. In the last year alone, she has appeared on MSNBC’s The Well-Mannered Traveler, the Sydney Morning Herald, USA Today, Psychology Today, Awareness magazine, New Age Journal, radio shows in three countries, several TV programs and subscription podcasts. She has discussed dating and relationships, abundance, grief and chronic illness, fulfilling life dreams, the native take on the swine flu, and women’s issues.
For more information, visit the Workshops page of her website http://www.lainecunningham.com. Visitors can also sign up for her free email bulletin The Spiritual Messenger. She is available on short notice and can be reached at 336-267-6572.
Cunningham’s upcoming book, Seven Sisters, pairs Australian Aboriginal stories with essays that address modern problems. Her first novel was published early this year. Message Stick focuses on modern Australian Aboriginal spiritual beliefs and won two national awards. The book was also included in a celebrity swag bag. Read about both on her book page.

Hypno-Lite: Free Workshop on Easy Weight Release
Hypno-Lite: Free Workshop on Easy Weight Release
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 22, 2009
Pssst. Want the secret of getting thin while eating whatever you want? It sounds like another diet scam, but this time the presenter isn’t claiming to suspend the laws of physics or metabolics. Instead, Stephanie Voss reverses our basic premise about weight. Overweight people don’t need to deny themselves enjoyable treats – they need to treat themselves to joy!
Taste a sample of the latest in mind/body techniques at a free workshop offered May 3rd by Voss Hypnotics.
As brain science catches up with meditation and hypnosis, more doctors are referring people to hypnotherapy for pain relief and habit control. To make this safe and effective practice more accessible, Medical Hypnotherapist Stephanie Voss is offering a powerful, free introduction to her new group plan.
“In hypnotherapy,” Voss says, “we use a comfortable, dreamy state to reach your deep inner mind. That’s where feelings have gotten linked to events and images.”
“When you change the way you feel about food and about yourself, your behavior changes automatically,” Voss said. “One of my clients told me recently, ‘Food is no longer a vice.’ Skinny people eat what they want to eat, and with a little shift in attitude, so can you.”
Hypno-Lite takes place Sunday, May 3, 2009, from 10:30 am to noon at the Voss Hypnotics office, 7470 N. Figueroa St., 1st floor, Los Angeles, CA 90041. Guests will experience a soothing guided imagery session as well as an introduction to hypnosis for health and success. More information is available at http://www.VossHypnotics.com.
Door prizes will include relaxation recordings and a copy of hypnotist Dr. Paul McKenna’s bestselling book, “I Can Make You Thin”. Reservations may be made at (323) 478-1920.

Introducing the ‘How To Talk To Republicans When You Want To Be Heard and Understood’ Workshop
Introducing the ‘How To Talk To Republicans When You Want To Be Heard and Understood’ Workshop
Denver, CO (PRWEB) October 25, 2006
Paul Sterling and Kristin Denton of the Language of Peace are pleased to announce a new, two-hour workshop designed specifically for activists: “Across the Great Divide.”
This workshop covers how to communicate effectively with people who oppose our values—to communicate in a way that models the peaceful world we would all like to live in. Learn to discuss issues like war, abortion rights, immigration, the environment and gay marriage
in a way that will change the other person’s mind at a visceral level. Yes, this is possible!
Learn how to use the 4 Steps to Social Change, based on the work of Dr. Marshall Rosenberg (http://www.cnvc.org): 1. Heal thyself, 2. Give empathy to the ‘enemy’, 3. Make a clear and present request, and 4. Give appreciation. These four steps the participants to achieve the following:
Get the other person to want to listen
Keep the conversation open and alive, instead of shut off and angry
Let the other person know you understand, even if you don’t agree
Avoid attacking or being defensive
The class is taught by dynamic communications coaches Paul Sterling and Kristin Denton of ‘The Language of Peace.’ Kristin and Paul provide compassionate coaching in communication and relationship skills with the intent of creating harmony in relationships and communities for this and generations to come.
Paul Sterling previously served as the U.S. delegate to the Soviet American citizen Summit and Peace Dialogue in Moscow. After a career as a commercial fisherman in Alaska, he has spent 20 years studying and teaching communication skills in government, business and private practice. Paul developed his method of The Language of Peace after studying the work of Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, Nonviolent Communication. He blended NVC with systems theory, neuro-linguistic programming, and Ericsonian hypnosis to create an incredibly effective way to compassionately connect with oneself and others. His website is
http://www.MagicRrelationship.com .
Kristin Denton has been an instructor of language, literature and communication for the last 17 years in factory, service industry, and public school settings. She is trained in second language acquisition theory and instructional design. She is Paul’s life partner and joins him in presenting his communication method. Her website is http://www.HarmonicInteractions.com .
This workshop was presented to the Estes Park Patriots for Peace during the “Declaration of Peace” campaign. This is a national effort by dozens of religious and social justice groups to end the war in Iraq. The president of the Patriots for Peace, Mary Ellen Garrett, remarked about the workshop, “Our group has really benefited from the ‘Language of Peace’ training that Kristin and Paul gave us. At every event since this training, people are mentioning how we are using what we learned to listen and communicate with more empathy.
Kristin and Paul have a real gift for teaching skills that we need for peacemaking.” In addition, the training was a vehicle for creating dialogue around what exactly the group wanted to request from the people with whom they interacted. Did they want people to sign a petition, read a flier, vote a certain way? This discussion helps clarify the intent of the group in their activities.
The workshop was also presented at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church and Buddhist Christian Interfaith Community in Denver. This is a group of local citizens who, as Rev. Cook explains, “…gather together from differing faith perspectives (Buddhist, Christian, and various others). We remain rooted in our own traditions without the compulsion to force common ground. Without the need to defend our own turf, we are profoundly challenged by one another’s wisdom, delighting in mutual enhancement.” For more information on the Interfaith Community and Reverend Toni Cook’s work, visit http://www.St.PaulDenver.com.
