Cary's August newsletter is now online

Uncle Chromie

I don't have children, and both of my parents are deceased, so there are only four people in the world with whom I share a similar gene pool: my brother and his three daughters. His youngest just visited my wife and me for a week in Woodstock, and it not only deepened our bond, but also continued to unfold our genetic similarities. Our senses of humor are in synch, our openness of communication is similar; why, even the way we hit topspin forehands in tennis are eerily alike.  The deepening of our relationship has even changed the name she calls me--it's no longer Uncle Cary, but Uncle Chromie, short for chromosome.  

I loved having her around for the week, and hated to see her fly back to Texas. Fortunately, she's headed to Georgetown Law School in D.C., so she's a thousand miles closer to me when I'm in Woodstock. That means I should be seeing her on my way down to south Florida, and back up to upstate New York each year. 

Art Director Wanted

I'm in the process of finding another graphic designer to work with who can help me design covers for my mini-books and workshop flyers. Would you like to be that person or refer me to someone who might?  You can reach me by phone at (845) 679-5526 or by email.

Free Coaching

To celebrate August, the month of my wife's birthday, I'm offering a complimentary half-hour coaching session for the first three people who contact me by phone at (845) 679-5526, or
or by email. It's my way of giving thanks for the great life that I'm blessed to live.  There are only four restrictions, but please read carefully:

(1)  You haven't already received a free coaching session from me.

(2) You're not currently involved in a series of coaching sessions with me.


(3) You book the session within 3 days of winning, so if you call or email, check my response and respond in time. If you forget, your place will be taken by someone else.


(4) You take the session
before August 15.

Affirmations

Here are several affirmations from my series on money, success, relationships, communication, and the inner journey, that are available in five mini-books and three CDs.

Syndicated "Life 101" Column

The column below ran in syndication throughout a variety of wellness publications, including Arizona Together.

Karma, Mantras, Gurus & Zen:
The East & West have met

When the guru who I studied with (Maharishi Mahesh Yogi) taught me how to teach his Transcendental Meditation in the decade of the '70s, the word guru made people's eyes glaze over. I remember teaching his meditation technique from India in those early days and people would look at me as if I had four arms. Perhaps they thought I was hanging out with those Indian gods and goddesses with the four arms who they thought also used that meditation. Now you hear the word guru every single day in the media.

Today, however, so many years later, there are still many people whom I meet--who I play tennis with, etc.--who also haven't heard of what I do now: life coaching. (Note to self: You don't always have to be so ahead of your time.) Fortunately, the media is catching up: In the March 10, 2008 issue of The New Yorker two cartoons spoke to my two careers. An Edward Koren cartoon featured two of his inimitable hippie-looking middle-aged women having coffee in the kitchen of the one whose son is being fed.  Her comment to her friend: "I'm not his mom anymore--now I'm his life coach."


A couple of pages later, a Roz Chast cartoon under the title, "In the Guru District," 11 people are seated in cross-legged semi-lotus position on a mountaintop, each on his own little spot in front of his own private cave.  Boxed copy labels each one as a guru.  There's the media guru, investment guru, diet guru, sex guru, technology guru, relationships guru, fashion guru, child-care guru, car guru, wine guru, and political guru.

It's remarkable how, in a few short decades, words like guru, mantra, Zen, and karma, to name just a few from the East, have become part of our daily lexicon.  "East is east and west is west and never the twain shall meet," says the old maxim. And old it is--and outdated, too. We live in a global marketplace of ideas and words that are part of a wisdom culture--like Zen, karma, mantra and guru, among others--are now part of our lives, too. Good old southern boys, who wouldn't know their karma from their dogma (thanks to Swami Beyondananda for that one), use these words with the same ease as the words they use to talk about their hunting or fishing.  

Jon Stewart finishes each of his half-hour programs on The Daily Show on Comedy Central with "Your Moment of Zen."   Zen is also a line of high-tech video and audio consumer products; it's a starting theme for Drupal for software coding; it's a chain of health food restaurants in Manhattan; it's a fast food chain of restaurants in Austin.

Some of the most stressed-out pundits on Wall Street, guys who study computerized charts moment-by-moment and pop ant-acids and who knows what other pharmacological aids to prevent them from burning out, are routinely called investment gurus.  The Guru is a feature film, The Love Guru is a feature film; the guru is an energy drink; it's a road and triathlon bike maker in Quebec; Guru.com is an online marketplace for freelance writers and editors; Windguru is an online weather forecasting service.

Mantra is a tool for monitoring various aspects of multicast at the router level; it's a record label; it's a software programming language; it's a substitute for mission statements in corporations; it's a venture group that acquires and develops green technologies and services that reduce environmental impact of energy production and resource consumption; it's a Sonoma County winery; Mantra 986 is a restaurant in mid-town Manhattan.  Baseball players remind themselves over and over again to stay back in the batter's box and keep their eyes on the ball--this repetitive instruction is known as their mantra.  

Karma is practically everywhere--it's a song by Alicia Keys; a song by NLT; it's a hybrid plug-in manufactured by Fisker Automotive, a "green American premium sports car company," that claims to burn no fuel whatsoever for the first 50 miles of driving--producing, what we expect to be, great karma.  You can drive your Karma to the Karma Lounge restaurant in lower Manhattan.

Once there, you can use the mantra your guru gave you, or watch your breath the way your Zen roshi taught you, all in all, chilling out and sending out good karma.

Higher Self Meditation

I'm proud to announce the development of a new meditation training that's been marinating in the quietest levels of consciousness deep within my soul for a number of years.  

Its name is Higher Self Meditation, and it's as effortless as Transcendental Meditation (TM) that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi trained me to teach when I was 20 years old.

Some years back, the movement that teaches the late Maharishi's system of TM significantly changed the requirements for those who had been teaching to continue to do so.  As a result, thousands of others, including myself, no longer instruct that method.  But understanding the mechanics of how the mind transcends in meditation after teaching meditation to so many hundreds of people from southern California and Western Europe to the Caribbean and many points in between--as well as training dozens of teachers of Transcendental Meditation--I've developed a system of meditation that's as effective as TM, as easy as TM, and available at half the price that it costs to learn TM.

Have you thought about incorporating a daily stress-management system to:
  • release deep-rooted tension,
  • increase energy,
  • stimulate creativity,
  • enliven happiness, and
  • enable you to contact the inexhaustible reservoir of creativity and intelligence deep within you at the transcendental level of Being?
If so, let me know, and I can explain how easy it is to learn.  You can reach me by email or by phone at (845) 679-5526.



Blog Cabin

The blogosphere has been active for many for quite some time, so I know I'm joining the party after it's gotten well underway.  In truth, I began blogging last summer for a very short time, and then put it on hold.  But now that I'm working with SEO guru Doug Motel (to whom I gave a big rave review in my last newsletter), I have my site set up properly, and I've begun to write regularly.

If you would like to have my blog entries emailed to you, there's a place on my website where you can enter your email address.


Face to Face to Facebook

With the Internet being a much          facebook logo
faster means of transport than the Interstate highways I find myself on each month, the World Wide Web is, like rock 'n' roll, here to stay, and presumably, also will never die. That being the case, I've recently created two pages on Facebook that can help you create breakthroughs in a variety of ways.  The pages are called:

Cary Bayer Breakthrough Coaching
Why not bookmark the address?
  
And

Business Coaching for Massage Therapists
Why not bookmark the address?

Why the latter? Because, these handy (pun intended) healers comprise the largest percentage of my coaching client population.  So check your Facebook walls and let me know what you think about my posts.

By the way, if you're not yet a fan of either page, you can join up easily at either of the addresses above.

Referral Fees

When I ran my own marketing/PR firm, I loved thanking anyone who referred a new client to me by sending a check for 10 percent of the fees generated.  I have a similar policy as a life coach.  If you inspire someone to become my client, you'll receive 10 percent of the fee that that person begins coaching with me at. That could easily mean a check for you of $105 or $65.  It's my way of saying, "thanks."  My thought is simple--who couldn't use a piece of unexpected income?
