Your Morning Wake- up Call
Here’s a link to a 36-minute video interview in which I talk about the role of meditation in enhancing creativity as part of the Transformed Creative Show with host Shaunay Cotton.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_yAM_DeyQHSRjg0yC_jwcy9aymk4uBOP/view
The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who meditate, start with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the video.
Here’s the dial-in number for it:
563-999-1035.
You’ll then be asked for a participant code,
which is 142781 and the pound sign (#).
If you’re in front of a computer, when the time is right you can watch the video that we’ll discuss afterwards. Here’s the link to that video. The upcoming schedule follows below:

Breakthroughs at a Fraction of the Cost
Some people at the end of my classes tell me they wish that coaching would cost less. While I’ve always kept my rates very competitive with respect to other life and business coaches, I’ve come up with a form of coaching that’s so inexpensive virtually everybody can afford it. It’s called Group Coaching.
It takes place on a conference line phone call for no more than six people, and it focuses on one topic. Each person in the group will get individual coaching on each call, while everyone else listens and profits, having your relationship and communication issues repeatedly brought up by other people because we stay focused on the topic of enriching your relationships and enhancing your communication, be it with your significant other, your parents, kids, siblings, friends, bosses, co-workers, clients, neighbors, and so forth. A group consciousness also develops, enabling a synergistic effect to usher in breakthroughs for one and all.
The author of Relationships 101 and Conscious Communication, who’s been leading workshops on these subjects for the past 20 years and coaching people on them for as long, I look forward to helping you create breakthroughs in having far more satisfying and loving relationships. Prior to becoming a full-time life coach in 2001, I ran a communications company for 18 years.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 8:30—9:30 PM Eastern time and will be held on six consecutive Thursday nights:
April 16, 23, 30
May 7, 14, 21.
The program is open to the first six people who register. The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $35 per session if fewer than 6 sign up. If you’d like to guarantee your spot, call 845-664-1883.
Group Coaching on Business Building & Money
Starts June 11:

It’s called Group Coaching.
It takes place on a conference line phone call for no more than six people, and it focuses on one topic—in this case on the interrelated topics of money, business, and career. Each person in the group will get individual coaching on each call, while everyone else listens and profits, having one’s issues repeatedly brought up by other people because we stay focused on the topics of money, business, and career. A group consciousness also develops, enabling a synergistic effect to usher in breakthroughs for one and all.
The author of Prosperity Aerobics and A Course in Money Miracles, who’s been leading prosperity workshops for 30 years and coaching people on money, business, and career for 21 of those years, I look forward to helping you create financial breakthroughs.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 8:30—9:30 PM Eastern time and will be held on the following six consecutive Thursday nights:
June 11, 18, 25
July 2, 9, 16
The program is open to the first six people who register. The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $35 per session if fewer than 6 sign up. If you’d like to guarantee your spot, call 845-664-1883.
One for your Inner Child, the Other on the ‘60s
I just created two new 48-page mini-books—Meditations for your Inner Child and The ‘60s: The Decade the World Woke Up. Both publications contain 7 chapters. The former features chapters on Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus, and The Wizard of Oz, among others. The latter has essays about the political and music scene of that fabled decade, as well as the famed Woodstock festival. See covers below.
The mini-books are available for $10, plus $3 for S&H. The Inner Child publication is available at https://www.carybayer.com/product-category/coaching-products-series,
the ‘60s can be purchased at https://www.carybayer.com/product-category/the-popular-culture-series
You can also call me at (845-664-1883) to obtain either or both.





The Power of Positive Singing:
Higher Consciousness in Musical Theater
Great sages, for thousands of years, have shown mankind how to live the higher life. For thousands of months, so, too, have Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Sondheim, Bernstein, and Porter, among others. This 111-page ebook’s chapters include “The Power of Positive Singing,” “Song Realization: Falling in Love as a Glimpse of Higher Consciousness,” “Cole Porter, the Angels, & the Gods,” “The Music Man: Fake it Till You Make It,” “My Fair Language: Transformation through Speech in My Fair Lady,” and “Pure Imagination & Animation Yoga: The Wonderful World of Disney Music.” It offers insights into the transformation of consciousness expressed in the songs of so many Broadway and Hollywood musicals.
This delightful and instructive 111-page ebook sells for $14, plus $3.50 shipping & handling, but through June 30, you can get it for $9.80 without any S&H.
Advanced Meditation Technique AvailableThe basic course in Higher Self Healing Meditation is easy to learn and even easier to practice; so, too, are advanced techniques, which you can learn, that accelerate your practice. The second technique, for example, expands the benefits of your daily meditation by opening awareness to the most refined levels of inner silence. Think of it as a fertilizer to speed up your growth. This second technique also improves the mind’s ability to cognize thought at more refined levels so that action can be strengthened, increasing your ability to achieve your goals, and thereby grow in fulfillment. This happens naturally and leads to improvements in all areas of life–-physical, mental, and spiritual.
Once you’ve practiced meditation for at least a year, you’re ready to learn your next technique. The cost for this advanced method is half of the cost of the first: $250. What’s more, it can also be learned via Skype and a webcam.
If you’d like to enjoy the benefits that the second technique provides, email me at successaerobics@aol.com or call (845) 664-1883.
“The advanced technique has brought me into deeper and more profound experiences where I become much more aware of colors that tie into my chakra’s and become aware of a state of consciousness where I have no thoughts for extended periods along with no mantra and I am just aware of feelings of bliss and joy tied into the colors expanding into my awareness.”
–Justin McCarthy, Senior VP

Sometimes the environment we hear something in can make the world of difference with regard to how we react to it. Meditation is no different. Toward that end, I enjoy giving free talks on meditation in the living rooms of meditators. If you’d like to share the benefits you’re enjoying from meditation with your family, friends, and co-workers, let me know and I’d be happy to set up an hour-long introduction to the benefits of meditation and explain to those present how it works and how it differs from other programs of personal growth. To set up a living room lecture, just give me a call at (845) 664-1883.

The other day I walked down a country road near my Woodstock, New York home with an older friend who’s lived there for decades. He remembered when Irish troubadour Van Morrison came to live in town in 1969. We also talked about the legendary Woodstock concert of that same year.
That got us singing songs by the Catholic mystic. I hadn’t realized how many of his songs were spiritual, inviting both himself and others to embrace the infinite Spirit within man’s soul. As he wrote in “Into The Mystic,”
“I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
Then magnificently we will float into the mystic.”
Some song titles speak directly about higher consciousness. In “Enlightenment,” he sings in a Zen brogue:
“Chop that wood
Carry water
What’s the sound of one hand clapping?
Enlightenment”
He continues in a new age tongue:
“I’m in the here and now, and I’m meditating
Enlightenment says the world is nothing
Nothing but a dream, everything’s an illusion
And nothing is real.”
He continues, inviting us to empower our Reality.
“Good or bad baby
You can change it anyway you want
You can rearrange it.”
At times, he drank deeply from the inner spiritual well, singing in “Beautiful Vision:”
“Beautiful vision
Stay with me all of the time
Beautiful vision
Stay ever on my mind with your beautiful…
Mystical rapture
I am in ecstasy
Beautiful vision
Don’t ever separate me from your beautiful…”
Thirsty for such experiences to continue, he sometimes invokes God, sometimes the Holy Spirit, here an angel in “Dweller on the Threshold:”
“Feel the angel of the present
In the mighty crystal fire
Lift me up consume my darkness
Let me travel even higher
“I’m a dweller on the threshold
As I cross the burning ground
Let me go down to the water
Watch the great illusion drown.”
Sometimes he keeps it more new age, invoking the One in “Hymn to Silence:”
“I wanna go out in the countryside
Oh sit by the clear, cool, crystal water
Get my spirit, way back to the feeling
Deep in my soul, I wanna feel
Oh so close to the One, close to the One
Close to the One, close to the One
And that’s why, I keep on singing baby
My hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence.”
In “Foreign Window,” he sings of reincarnation:
“And if you get it right this time
You don’t have to come back again
And if you get it right this time
There’s no need to explain.”
Other times, he’s almost evangelical, like in “Whenever God Shines His Light:”
“When I reach out for him he is there
When I am lonely as I can be
I know that God shines his light on me
“If you live (if you live) the life you love (the life you love)
You get the blessing from above (from above).”
In “Give Me My Rapture,” he asks God for purification that he might enjoy exalted states again:
“Won’t you guide me through the dark night of the soul
That I may better understand your way
Let me be just and worthy to receive
All the blessings of the Lord into my life
Let me purify my thoughts and words and deeds
That I may be a vehicle for thee
Let me hold to the truth in the darkest hour
Let me sing to the glory of the Lord
Give me my rapture today.”
Other times he wonders if listeners feel the healing he sings about.
He does just that in “Did Ye Get Healed?”
“I wanna know did you get the feelin’
Did you get it down in your soul?
“I wanna know did you get the feelin’
Oh, did you get healed?
I begin to realize the magic in my life
See it manifest in oh so many ways.
Every day it’s getting better and better.
I wanna be daily walking, daily walking close.”
Speaking of walking…who’d have thought that a country walk would result in these observations from a former neighbor who’s moved so many people on so many continents?
“It is not wealth that we aim at, but the source of wealth, the state of affluence, self sufficiency and invincibility. There we find everything: Total Knowledge.. The flow and the non-flow is there, nothing and everything is there.”
—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
ISKCON, the Hari Krishna organization, feeds more than one million children in India free lunches every school day.
“Meditation is one simple technique that has made my entire life so much better in so many countless ways.”
—C.B.
Fairfield, Iowa
As many of you know, two of the greatest passions in my career are teaching meditation and coaching. And now the two have come together in a brand new method. Let me explain.
The Higher Self Healing Meditation that I founded in 2010, after teaching Transcendental Meditation for decades and training dozens of its teachers, can give you the experience of the Transcendent, the inner Being within you. When you combine the experience of the Transcendent with an advanced form of coaching you get my newest offering—Transcendental Coaching.
What makes Heaven on Earth Coaching unique is that it draws upon mankind’s ancient timeless wisdom—from the Hebrews, Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, the Vedas of India, and the native Americans of our own continent–to help coach you into the life that you were truly born to live. It incorporates deep knowledge of the way that the Universe operates, so that your life can flow in tune with the Laws of Nature. Enjoy clarity for your mind, purity for your heart, prosperity for your net worth, and spirituality for your soul. It takes into account the knowledge of Karma, the knowledge of Dharma (action in accordance with Cosmic Law), the knowledge of clearly defined higher states of consciousness, and an understanding of the nature of Enlightenment itself. This helps bring your life increasingly in tune with Nature, and to live in freedom.
The result of this attunement is more frequent experience of synchronicities (being in the right place at the right time), less struggle, less resistance to the fulfillment of your desires, and an overall greater sense of your life as a delightful flow.
The prerequisites for Heaven on Earth Coaching are the 3-day training in Higher Self Healing Meditation, and 10 hour-long coaching sessions.
When I taught Transcendental Meditation for several decades, I could only teach it in person. But since founding Higher Self Healing Meditation in 2010, I’m happy to say that the training is now available from a distance if you have a webcam on your computer. Let me know if you’d like to take advantage of this valuable stress-reducing method, even if you live far from my homes in upstate New York and south Florida.
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 meditation teacher. If you inspire someone to become my student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the course fee. That means a check for you of $50 for caring enough about the people in your life that you’d like them to live with more freedom from stress. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.” My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?
I also give you 20 percent of the revenues for any meditation course that you produce or sponsor for me. Sponsoring means finding a time and space for the free introductory lecture and the three days of hour-and-a half classes—it could be your own living room, if you like—and it can also be held on the Internet as a webinar. I would email you a flyer for the lecture, which you’d then email to the people in your life. If five people learn to meditate, for example, you would enjoy $500 for your work.
Would You Like to Receive This Free Service?
Before the advent of smart phones, we often got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually.
Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service, delivered to your email box at 5 AM, you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s about a quarter of the length of a minute.
Quite a number of people who I’ve coached over the years have asked for such a service. As a result of an overwhelming response to a recent poll, I’ve tailored it to your specific interests.
Your poll replies indicate that you’re interested in:
So I’ll be including them in “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service. Would you like to receive it? If so, respond to this email with a positive reply. I look forward to helping you wake up to the greatness that is your true nature.

The column below ran in syndication in a variety of wellness publications, including Together Arizona http://www.togetheraz.com/ in the past
Article: “Moving Van into the Mystic”
The other day I walked down a country road near my Woodstock, New York home with an older friend who’s lived there for decades. He remembered when Irish troubadour Van Morrison came to live in town in 1969. We also talked about the legendary Woodstock concert of that same year.
That got us singing songs by the Catholic mystic. I hadn’t realized how many of his songs were spiritual, inviting both himself and others to embrace the infinite Spirit within man’s soul. As he wrote in “Into The Mystic,”
“I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
Then magnificently we will float into the mystic.”
Some song titles speak directly about higher consciousness. In “Enlightenment,” he sings in a Zen brogue:
“Chop that wood
Carry water
What’s the sound of one hand clapping?
Enlightenment,”
He continues in a new age tongue:
“I’m in the here and now, and I’m meditating
Enlightenment says the world is nothing
Nothing but a dream,
everything’s an illusion And nothing is real.”
He continues, inviting us to empower our Reality.
“Good or bad baby You can change it anyway you want You can
rearrange it.”
At times, he drank deeply from the inner spiritual well, singing in “Beautiful Vision:”
“Beautiful vision
Stay with me all of the time
Beautiful vision
Stay ever on my mind with your beautiful…
Mystical rapture
I am in ecstasy
Beautiful vision
Don’t ever separate me from your beautiful…”
Thirsty for such experiences to continue, he sometimes invokes God, sometimes the Holy Spirit, here an angel in “Dweller on the Threshold:”
“Feel the angel of the present
In the mighty crystal fire
Lift me up consume my darkness
Let me travel even higher
“I’m a dweller on the threshold
As I cross the burning ground
Let me go down to the water
Watch the great illusion drown.”
Sometimes he keeps it more new age, invoking the One in “Hymn to Silence:”
“I wanna go out in the countryside
Oh sit by the clear, cool, crystal water
Get my spirit, way back to the feeling
Deep in my soul, I wanna feel
Oh so close to the One, close to the One
Close to the One, close to the One
And that’s why, I keep on singing baby
My hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence.”
In “Foreign Window,” he sings of reincarnation:
“And if you get it right this time
You don’t have to come back again
And if you get it right this time
There’s no need to explain.”
Other times, he’s almost evangelical, like in “Whenever God Shines His Light:”
“When I reach out for him he is there
When I am lonely as I can be
I know that God shines his light on me
“If you live (if you live) the life you love (the life you love)
You get the blessing from above (from above).”
In “Give Me My Rapture,” he asks God for purification that he might enjoy exalted states again:
“Won’t you guide me through the dark night of the soul
That I may better understand your way
Let me be just and worthy to receive
All the blessings of the Lord into my life
Let me purify my thoughts and words and deeds
That I may be a vehicle for thee
Let me hold to the truth in the darkest hour
Let me sing to the glory of the Lord Give me my rapture today.”
Other times he wonders if listeners feel the healing he sings about. He does just that in “Did Ye Get Healed?”
“I wanna know did you get the feelin’
Did you get it down in your soul?
“I wanna know did you get the feelin’
Oh, did you get healed?
I begin to realize
the magic in my life
See it manifest in oh so many ways.
Every day it’s getting better and better.
I wanna be daily walking, daily walking close.”
Speaking of walking…who’d have thought that a country walk would result in these observations from a former neighbor who’s moved so many people on so many continents?
Before the advent of smart phones, we got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually. Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call,” you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s less than half that length.
It features Affirmations, Inspiring Quotes, Questions to Provoke Insights, Inner Exercises to Awaken your Higher Nature, Inspiring Stories, Scripture, Prayers & Meditations, Inspiring Poetry.

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, a meditation teacher, and the writer of books for others. If you inspire someone to become a client of mine for coaching or book writing, or a meditation student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the fee that that person begins with me at. That could easily mean a check for you of $105 or $65 for coaching, for $50 for meditation, and hundreds of dollars for book publishing. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.”
My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?

Your Morning Wake- up Call
May this holiday season bring you good cheer, good health and lots of love. (And hopefully, not too many pounds.) And may 2020 be your best year yet. The office will be closed from December 24 through January 1.
Two Group Coaching Programs Start on February 20: Breakthroughs at a Fraction of the Cost
One on Spirituality & Purpose, the Other on Money/Career/Business
Some people at the end of my classes tell me they wish that coaching would cost less. While I’ve always kept my rates very competitive with respect to other life and business coaches, I’ve come up with a form of coaching that’s so inexpensive virtually everybody can afford it. It’s called Group Coaching.
It takes place on a conference line phone call for no more than six people, and it focuses on one topic—in this case on enriching the quality of your financial life. Each person in the group will get individual coaching on each call, while everyone else listens and profits, having one’s issues repeatedly brought up by other people because we stay focused on the topic of the program. A group consciousness also develops, enabling a synergistic effect to usher in breakthroughs for one and all.
The hour-long sessions will take place as follows on six consecutive Thursday nights:
February 20, 27, March 5, 12, 19, 26
7:15 PM Eastern Spirituality & Purpose
8:30—9:30 PM Eastern Money/Career/Business
The programs are open to the first six people who register. The cost for each Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $5 per session more if fewer than 6 sign up. If you’d like to guarantee your spot, call 845-664-1883.
You’ve seen Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, and Giving Tuesday. Now introducing…Coaching Wednesday. In the spirit of the holiday season, I’m running a “25 percent off sale” through December 23 on all of my products and services. That means my:

Massage therapists can see products just for them at http://www.themassagemarketingcoach.com/the-massage-coach-cary-bayers-massage-therapists-series-marketing-materials-for-success/
Each of these products and services offers you an opportunity to awaken your full potential and accelerate your evolution of consciousness. Now, as we come upon a new year, you can, for as little as $6.50, spur that growth within yourself to help you awaken a new and empowered you. Or in this holiday gift-giving season, you can, for less than the cost of a couple of slices of pizza, help inspire and empower the people who mean so much to you—your family, your friends, your clients—and anyone else you care about.
Because products at my sites are listed at their normal prices, I’ll send a 25% rebate if you buy on the site’s shopping cart. You can also place the order by email at successsaerobics@aol.com (by including your credit card information), sending a check in the mail to 1051 Hillsboro Mile, Apt. 604, Hillsboro Beach, FL 33062, or by calling (845) 664-1883.

The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who meditate, start with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the video.
Here’s the dial-in number for it:
563-999-1035.
You’ll then be asked for a participant code,
which is 142781 and the pound sign (#).
If you’re in front of a computer, when the time is right you can watch the video that we’ll discuss afterwards. Here’s the link to that video. The upcoming schedule follows below:

Hermann Hesse’s wonderful novel, A Journey to the East, helped set me on my own inner journey, leading me to adopting meditation practice as a college freshman. Now that journey is becoming geographical as well.
From January 16 through February 10, my wife and I will be taking our own journey to the East. Specifically, on a spiritual tour, with 20 others, of South India temples and ashrams. The program is run by American Veda Tours; the co-leader of the group is my old colleague Phil Goldberg, who wrote the wonderful book American Veda, which details, ever so lucidly, the influence of Indian spirituality on American consciousness.
I can’t promise that I’ll be responding to communications during that period of time.

The Power of Positive Singing:
Higher Consciousness in Musical Theater
Great sages, for thousands of years, have shown mankind how to live the higher life. For thousands of months, so, too, have Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Sondheim, Bernstein, and Porter, among others. This 111-page ebook’s chapters include “The Power of Positive Singing,” “Song Realization: Falling in Love as a Glimpse of Higher Consciousness,” “Cole Porter, the Angels, & the Gods,” “The Music Man: Fake it Till You Make It,” “My Fair Language: Transformation through Speech in My Fair Lady,” and “Pure Imagination & Animation Yoga: The Wonderful World of Disney Music.” It offers insights into the transformation of consciousness expressed in the songs of so many Broadway and Hollywood musicals.
This delightful and instructive 111-page ebook sells for $14, plus $3.50 shipping & handling, but through March 31, you can get it for $9.80 without any S&H.
The basic course in Higher Self Healing Meditation is easy to learn and even easier to practice; so, too, are advanced techniques, which you can learn, that accelerate your practice. The second technique, for example, expands the benefits of your daily meditation by opening awareness to the most refined levels of inner silence. Think of it as a fertilizer to speed up your growth. This second technique also improves the mind’s ability to cognize thought at more refined levels so that action can be strengthened, increasing your ability to achieve your goals, and thereby grow in fulfillment. This happens naturally and leads to improvements in all areas of life–-physical, mental, and spiritual.
Once you’ve practiced meditation for at least a year, you’re ready to learn your next technique. The cost for this advanced method is half of the cost of the first: $250. What’s more, it can also be learned via Skype and a webcam.
If you’d like to enjoy the benefits that the second technique provides, email me at successaerobics@aol.com or call (845) 664-1883.
“The advanced technique has brought me into deeper and more profound experiences where I become much more aware of colors that tie into my chakra’s and become aware of a state of consciousness where I have no thoughts for extended periods along with no mantra and I am just aware of feelings of bliss and joy tied into the colors expanding into my awareness.”

Sometimes the environment we hear something in can make the world of difference with regard to how we react to it. Meditation is no different. Toward that end, I enjoy giving free talks on meditation in the living rooms of meditators. If you’d like to share the benefits you’re enjoying from meditation with your family, friends, and co-workers, let me know and I’d be happy to set up an hour-long introduction to the benefits of meditation and explain to those present how it works and how it differs from other programs of personal growth. To set up a living room lecture, just give me a call at (845) 664-1883.
The other night there was a lunar eclipse in the nighttime sky. As astronomers remind us, the light from the heavens is suddenly obscured or eclipsed. This is a cosmic metaphor: The light in most people has been long eclipsed. One cause is that we’ve doubted this light’s existence. William Blake, the Romantic poet, wrote unforgettably about doubt:
“If the sun and moon should doubt,
They’d immediately go out.”
This light within you is your spiritual essence. You may have found it in meditation, perhaps scuba diving, conceiving a child, maybe in a near-death experience. If you haven’t, it’s time to end the eclipse, time to use a telescope to see into the nature of who and what you truly are.
Humanity thought the earth was the center of the solar system, until geniuses like Galileo and Copernicus created the revolution that proved that the sun was the center of our heavens. What our planet needs desperately now is a spiritual revolution to enlighten people that the center of the heavens isn’t beyond the clouds, but right there within the depth of their own being. This revolution would let humanity see that we haven’t done our job as stewards of the Earth; that we’ve polluted our water and air. The Wall Street Journal reported that one quarter of the wildlife that was alive just 40 years ago is now extinct. Such a revolution would give us compassion to care for all life forms.
The telescopes to discover this truth aren’t tucked away in the attic, they’re tools like meditation that enable you to see into the heavens within you. “Heaven lies about us in our infancy,” William Wordsworth wrote two centuries ago in “Ode Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood.” It also lies about us in our middle and golden years. Those years can be golden, lit by a golden light, when you train that inner telescope to look into your nature. But that takes discipline, not unlike the discipline it took for astronomers to understand Reality, and change the world forever. Your world can also be changed forever if you take time each day to look into the heavens within you for your inner light. You can ignore that light like the people who George Harrison referred to in his beautiful song, “The Light That Has Lighted the World.”
“So hateful of anyone that is happy or ‘free’
They live all their lives without looking to see
The light that has lighted the world.”
Or you could choose to look within and be like George himself, as he sang:
“I’m grateful to anyone that is happy or ‘free’
for giving me hope while I’m looking to see
The light that has lighted the world.”
Look up at the midday sun or the midnight moon. If you like the light that they emit, don’t forget that an even more brilliant light is within you. Are you ready to let the eclipse be eclipsed?
“What makes one luckier is the good that he has done to others. It comes back to him.”
—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Students in detention at the Robert W. Coleman Elementary School in Baltimore have the option of meditating or doing yoga as an alternative to staring at walls. Kids who are creating problems in classes go to the Mindful Moment Room. The program, which is helping children manage their emotions in a more positive manner, was developed by the Holistic Life Foundation.

As many of you know, two of the greatest passions in my career are teaching meditation and coaching. And now the two have come together in a brand new method. Let me explain.
The Higher Self Healing Meditation that I founded in 2010, after teaching Transcendental Meditation for decades and training dozens of its teachers, can give you the experience of the Transcendent, the inner Being within you. When you combine the experience of the Transcendent with an advanced form of coaching you get my newest offering—Transcendental Coaching.
What makes Heaven on Earth Coaching unique is that it draws upon mankind’s ancient timeless wisdom—from the Hebrews, Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, the Vedas of India, and the native Americans of our own continent–to help coach you into the life that you were truly born to live. It incorporates deep knowledge of the way that the Universe operates, so that your life can flow in tune with the Laws of Nature. Enjoy clarity for your mind, purity for your heart, prosperity for your net worth, and spirituality for your soul. It takes into account the knowledge of Karma, the knowledge of Dharma (action in accordance with Cosmic Law), the knowledge of clearly defined higher states of consciousness, and an understanding of the nature of Enlightenment itself. This helps bring your life increasingly in tune with Nature, and to live in freedom.
The result of this attunement is more frequent experience of synchronicities (being in the right place at the right time), less struggle, less resistance to the fulfillment of your desires, and an overall greater sense of your life as a delightful flow.
The prerequisites for Heaven on Earth Coaching are the 3-day training in Higher Self Healing Meditation, and 10 hour-long coaching sessions.
Meditation Training Available by Skype & Webcam
When I taught Transcendental Meditation for several decades, I could only teach it in person. But since founding Higher Self Healing Meditation in 2010, I’m happy to say that the training is now available from a distance if you have a webcam on your computer. Let me know if you’d like to take advantage of this valuable stress-reducing method, even if you live far from my homes in upstate New York and south Florida.
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 meditation teacher. If you inspire someone to become my student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the course fee. That means a check for you of $50 for caring enough about the people in your life that you’d like them to live with more freedom from stress. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.” My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?
I also give you 20 percent of the revenues for any meditation course that you produce or sponsor for me. Sponsoring means finding a time and space for the free introductory lecture and the three days of hour-and-a half classes—it could be your own living room, if you like—and it can also be held on the Internet as a webinar. I would email you a flyer for the lecture, which you’d then email to the people in your life. If five people learn to meditate, for example, you would enjoy $500 for your work.
Before the advent of smart phones, we often got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually.
Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service, delivered to your email box at 5 AM, you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s about a quarter of the length of a minute.
Quite a number of people who I’ve coached over the years have asked for such a service. As a result of an overwhelming response to a recent poll, I’ve tailored it to your specific interests.
Your poll replies indicate that you’re interested in:
So I’ll be including them in “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service. Would you like to receive it? If so, respond to this email with a positive reply. I look forward to helping you wake up to the greatness that is your true nature.

The column below ran in syndication in a variety of wellness publications, including Together Arizona http://www.togetheraz.com/ in the past
Article: The Music Man: Fake it Till You Make it
The Music Man, the Tony- and Oscar-award-winning Meredith Wilson show, tells a remarkable story about the transformation of a con man into a true miracle-creating hero. The fraud is one Harold Hill—a pseudonym to hide his bilking of people in other early 20th century Midwestern towns—who claims to be a professor of music but is really nothing other than a professor of lying and cheating, scheming and scamming.
The story takes place in the fictional River City, Iowa, where said “professor” embarks on an elaborate con game. He somehow frightens the townsfolk into thinking that they have a serious juvenile delinquent problem—there is nothing but a new pool table installed in the billiard parlor (“Trouble”)—that can be cured through the development of a boys’ marching band. And what band doesn’t need expensive uniforms, instruments, and instruction books, which he’ll supply despite knowing next to nothing about music. He hoodwinks just about everyone in town—he tells them, after all, that he’s a graduate of the Gary Conservatory of Music (“Gary, Indiana”) almost causing the mayor to sign up his son until he realizes that he has no son. Hill also inspires His Honor’s wife to form a dance troupe. His plan to spread music throughout River City is to woo the local music teacher; but there’s a hitch, as she’s also the librarian, and is highly skeptical of his fast-talking spiels. There’s another hitch that develops that the con man had never in a million years could have anticipated—he finds himself falling in love with her, and contemplating getting hitched.
But soon con man turns into man who can actually inspire confidence. Marian’s very young brother—devastated by his father’s death two years before, resulting in depression and a serious speech defect—has enthusiasm awakened in him to play the cornet in his brand new uniform. And he manages to speak without his embarrassing lisp when both arrive (“Wells Fargo Wagon”). The con man has become something of a miracle worker.
Knowing next to nothing about music, Hill can’t be bothered to learn how to teach it, except to use the “think system,” which enables anyone to play a melody simply by thinking about it—or so he claims. While the “method” is nothing more than sheer blarney, it does help Barney and other boys actually play something vaguely similar to the Beethoven Minuet in G that their leader has had them practice.
In time, the town learns that Hill is a fraud, courtesy of the testimony of a traveling salesman who has seen the con man’s schemes bilk one town after another. They want to tar and feather him, but it’s the shy librarian who comes to his defense—mostly because she has fallen in love with him, even though she knows that he’s a thief. Love, in Broadway and Hollywood musicals, can be blind. She also helps her neighbors realize that this con man has actually helped transform the town—boys are playing less pool and playing more music. She has fallen in love, as has he, and he admits his larceny.
If composer/lyricist Meredith Wilson had co-authored the book not with Franklin Lacey but with Aesop, the latter might have left us with a lesson from this musical fable. It might just have been that we can fake it till we make it. (The same theme is found in My Fair Lady where Professor Higgins teaches an uneducated flower seller how to become elegant by faking the speech and behavior of refined women.) That a con man can inspire confidence and even miracles, and love can turn even the worst crook into an honest romantic.
Before the advent of smart phones, we got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually. Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call,” you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s less than half that length.
It features Affirmations, Inspiring Quotes, Questions to Provoke Insights, Inner Exercises to Awaken your Higher Nature, Inspiring Stories, Scripture, Prayers & Meditations, Inspiring Poetry.

If you inspire someone to become a client of mine for coaching or book writing, or a meditation student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the fee that that person begins with me at. That could easily mean a check for you of $105 or $65 for coaching, for $50 for meditation, and hundreds of dollars for book publishing. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.”
My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?

Some people at the end of my classes tell me they wish that coaching would cost less. While I’ve always kept my rates very competitive with respect to other life and business coaches, I’ve come up with a form of coaching that’s so inexpensive virtually everybody can afford it. It’s called Group Coaching.
It takes place on a conference line phone call for no more than six people, and it focuses on one topic—in this case on enriching the quality of your relationships. Each person in the group will get individual coaching on each call, while everyone else listens and profits, having one’s issues repeatedly brought up by other people because we stay focused on relationships. A group consciousness also develops, enabling a synergistic effect to usher in breakthroughs for one and all.
The author of Relationships 101 and Conscious Communication who’s been leading relationships workshops for 20 years and coaching people on the subject for 18, I look forward to helping you create relationships breakthroughs.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 8:30—9:30 PM Eastern time and will be held on the following six consecutive Wednesday nights:
October 30, November 6, 13, 20, 27, & December 4
The program is open to the first six people who register. The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $5 per session more if fewer than 6 sign up.
If you’d like to guarantee your spot, call
845-664-1883.
Through December 23, I’m running a 50% off sale on all my ebooks.

Here is an affirmation from my series on procrastination, success, relationships, communication, and the inner journey, which are available in five ebooks and three CDs.
“I have the brains to figure out all kinds of things.”

Destiny
“Destiny is no matter of chance.
It is a matter of choice:
It is not a thing to be waited for,
it is a thing to be achieved.”
–William Jennings Bryan
Meatless burgers, once the darling of vegetarians, is now the darling of stock investors, and can be eaten at fast food chains like Burger King.
The Cosmic & The Comic
“A sense of humor is the only divine quality of man.”
–Schopenhauer
30% of single women with dogs found the man they married because of the dog.
“Group coaching classes helped me refine my vision for my arts business. It took some time to hone on it, but once I discovered the right market and vision for my work, my business took off. I learned from Cary how to take consistent and precise action steps over time, while continuing to refine the vision of my future and believe that I am not only capable but destined to fulfill it.
“The combination of practical and spiritual guidance has proven successful for me. This year, for the first time in decades, my arts business income exceeds my ‘day job’ in education.
“I am shifting to one-on-one coaching with Cary this fall to bring an even greater level of abundance and professional success that are perfectly aligned with my higher purpose.
“Thank you Cary for your great coaching!”

Article: Accentuate the Positive
“You’ve got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don’t mess with Mister In-between.”
—Johnny Mercer,
“Accentuate the Positive”
What was true in the hey-day of Broadway’s Tin Pan Alley is as true today in the new millennium. If you want a transformation in, say, your finances, remove the resistance to prosperity that festers in your Unconscious from 20,000 meals you ate growing up at home. A powerful way to transform your mind is by accentuating the positive, as the songwriter wrote, and latching on to the affirmative.
Here’s an extremely good one to latch onto: “My mind is a money magnet.” Write the affirmation, then the resistance that comes up from your subconscious mind; suppose it’s: “My mind is lazy and uncreative.” Writing the response releases it from your being. Next step: create a new affirmation to treat this resistance; a good one is: “My connection to the Higher Power of the Universe energizes my mind with creative ideas and attracts opportunities to me.” What’s powerful about this technique is that you’re releasing everything that stands in the way of the affirmation manifesting. Do this affirmation process daily for at least 10 minutes a day until it becomes your reality.
Before the advent of smart phones, we got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually. Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call,” you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s less than half that length.
It features Affirmations, Inspiring Quotes, Questions to Provoke Insights, Inner Exercises to Awaken your Higher Nature, Inspiring Stories, Scripture, Prayers & Meditations, Inspiring Poetry.
If you’d like to receive it, reply to this email.

“The purpose of Creation is the expansion of happiness.”—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
New Remote Meditation Retreats Oct. 13 & Dec. 1; Free Advanced Meditation Classes; Group Coaching Program on Relationships;
Holiday Closing Dec. 24—Jan. 2; 30% off ebook, The Power of Positive Singing: Higher Consciousness in Musical Theater; Advanced Technique Available; Living Room Lectures; Article: “Actors & the Infinite Field of Creativity Within;’ Quote of the Month; Sign of an Age of Enlightenment?; Schedule of Classes; Testimonial; Meditation Available by Skype; New Heaven on Earth Coaching; Want to Make Money from Meditation?; Your Morning Wake- up Call
For many years I’ve conducted full-day meditation retreats in different parts of the country where I happened to be for a while. These included south Florida, north Florida, and Woodstock and New Paltz in New York’s Hudson Valley. They provide a day of profound rest, renewal, and healing, in which you get a chance to take another big step toward Enlightenment. Instead of your usual twice-a-day daily meditations, you’ll get to meditate 8 times for four hours. These events were very well and good for meditators in those areas, but what about all those many meditators in other parts of the country who couldn’t make it because of geography?
Toward that end, I experimented with making a remote access retreat available for a very dedicated meditator in the Far West while I was conducting retreats in each of the above named areas. Enter technology: Recently, I expanded my experiment once again, this time making the same full-day $75 remote retreats available for two meditators separated by many hundreds of miles from each other and me. It went swimmingly. Here are their accounts, first from a veteran of more than a dozen in-person retreats in Jacksonville, FL, then from a meditator who has done a similar number of retreats, all by remote.
“On May 19 I was able to experience a Higher Self Healing Meditation Retreat with Cary and another meditator in two far away locations with telephone. I was open to the idea, as I so enjoy a day of knowledge and deep rest that was offered. I think it went well, because there were no distractions in the place I was, and I could relax without being self-conscious as in a class with other participants. Thank you for suggesting it and please notify me of our next Retreat opportunity.”
—Priscilla Gulliver
Licensed Massage Therapist
St. Augustine, FL
“Twelve months after I began practicing meditation, an invitation was offered to join a retreat via cellphone. It sounded similar to joining others from around the country for Group Coaching, in which I had been participating, and enjoying breakthroughs in my life. I’ve now done seven or eight retreats by phone, and I have truly enjoyed them all.
“Some nice things about doing this remotely, have been that I can be in my pajamas, I don’t have to travel (and that can be especially nice if I’m feeling under the weather). My cats enjoy these peaceful and mellow days, too. It has a more far-reaching affect than the usual two times a day sittings of meditation. It puts my life into a better perspective. It feels like I have friends around the country, I recognize their voices and appreciate their virtual companionship as we raise our consciousness together, and that of our communities. It’s really a lovely way to spend the day.”
–Bobbi Ingram, founder
Spirit Finders
Thermopolis, WY
As a result of the success of this remote retreat I’ve decided to augment my in-person retreats with their remote cousins. The schedule for the next series of full-day remote retreats are listed below:
Sunday October 13
Remote from 10 AM—6 PM Eastern, $75
Contact: Cary (845) 664-1883
Sunday December 1
Remote from 9 AM—5 PM Eastern, $75
Contact: Cary (845) 664-1883
The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who meditate, start with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the video.
Here’s the dial-in number for it:
563-999-1035.
You’ll then be asked for a participant code,
which is 142781 and the pound sign (#).
If you’re in front of a computer, when the time is right you can watch the video that we’ll discuss afterwards. Here’s the link to that video. The upcoming schedule follows below:

The Power of Positive Singing:
Higher Consciousness in Musical Theater
Great sages, for thousands of years, have shown mankind how to live the higher life. For thousands of months, so, too, have Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Sondheim, Bernstein, and Porter, among others. This 111-page ebook’s chapters include “The Power of Positive Singing,” “Song Realization: Falling in Love as a Glimpse of Higher Consciousness,” “Cole Porter, the Angels, & the Gods,” “The Music Man: Fake it Till You Make It,” “My Fair Language: Transformation through Speech in My Fair Lady,” and “Pure Imagination & Animation Yoga: The Wonderful World of Disney Music.” It offers insights into the transformation of consciousness expressed in the songs of so many Broadway and Hollywood musicals.
This delightful and instructive 111-page ebook sells for $14, plus $3.50 shipping & handling, but through December 23, you can get it for $9.80 without any S&H.
The basic course in Higher Self Healing Meditation is easy to learn and even easier to practice; so, too, are advanced techniques, which you can learn, that accelerate your practice. The second technique, for example, expands the benefits of your daily meditation by opening awareness to the most refined levels of inner silence. Think of it as a fertilizer to speed up your growth. This second technique also improves the mind’s ability to cognize thought at more refined levels so that action can be strengthened, increasing your ability to achieve your goals, and thereby grow in fulfillment. This happens naturally and leads to improvements in all areas of life–-physical, mental, and spiritual.
Once you’ve practiced meditation for at least a year, you’re ready to learn your next technique. The cost for this advanced method is half of the cost of the first: $250. What’s more, it can also be learned via Skype and a webcam.
If you’d like to enjoy the benefits that the second technique provides, email me at successaerobics@aol.com or call (845) 664-1883.
“The advanced technique has brought me into deeper and more profound experiences where I become much more aware of colors that tie into my chakra’s and become aware of a state of consciousness where I have no thoughts for extended periods along with no mantra and I am just aware of feelings of bliss and joy tied into the colors expanding into my awareness.”

Living Room Lectures
Sometimes the environment we hear something in can make the world of difference with regard to how we react to it. Meditation is no different. Toward that end, I enjoy giving free talks on meditation in the living rooms of meditators. If you’d like to share the benefits you’re enjoying from meditation with your family, friends, and co-workers, let me know and I’d be happy to set up an hour-long introduction to the benefits of meditation and explain to those present how it works and how it differs from other programs of personal growth. To set up a living room lecture, just give me a call at (845) 664-1883.
When I watch the Oscars presentation, it seems like the stars are treated like Olympian gods and goddesses. Stars, after all, are lights in the heavens, so the Olympian reference seems apt. We lionize actors because they perform valuable services. On the obvious level, their art lifts our spirits, opens our minds, and warms our hearts. More subtly, they sometimes portray heroes who embody life lived from full potential. They put their egos aside so their characters can take over. The very best channel many different kinds of characters from their center. We delight in watching such channeling because we yearn to find that center in ourselves, which can open vast creativity.
A Transcendental Meditation teacher for decades, and now founder of Higher Self Healing Meditation launched in 2010, I’ve given many hundreds of people the experience of that center, the higher Self within. This is a pure field of creative intelligence, a source of limitless creativity that can manifest as acting, music, art, or less “arty” fields, like gardening, managing, and virtually any human activity. True genius actors draw from within themselves a wide range of characters; I’m thinking of Meryl Streep and Dustin Hoffman, rather than Sylvester Stallone, who’s often played the same character.
Meryl, Dustin & the Cosmic Role of Actors
Meryl Streep’s oeuvre is remarkable for how many different characters have lived inside her. Perhaps the highest role she plays each time she plays a role is that she reminds us that we, too, play roles. As the transcendental Being in us manifests as human, the Universal becomes an individual. Your Being plays roles as whatever you do in the world. As Teilhard de Chardin put it, “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, but spiritual beings having a human experience.”
Meryl Streep has portrayed with pitch-perfect accuracy accents that were Polish (Sophie’s Choice), Danish (Out of Africa), Italian (The Bridges of Madison County), British (Iron Lady), Irish (Dancing at Lughnasa), Australian (A Cry in the Dark), and Chilean (The House of the Spirits), as well as American accents from the South, Midwest, and New York. She’s played women who are straight, gay, dying, even dead. That she’s won only three Oscars, while passed over the sixteen other times she was nominated, is a mystery to me.
Dustin Hoffman has played a transvestite (Tootsie) autistic savant (Rain Man), street hustler (Midnight Cowboy), 120-year-old raised by Native Americans (Little Big Man), grotesque criminal (Dick Tracy), and pirate (Hook), to name just a handful.
Naturally, Streep and Hoffman are separate from their varied roles, like your inner Self, because it’s transcendental, is separate from your body, perceptions, thoughts, feelings, and personality. Like actors who play many roles, so do you: spouse, parent, child, sibling, employee, client, rep, etc. More cosmically, as expressed in the Bhagavad Gita, the textbook of Yoga, the actor, remaining detached from the roles that he plays, is like your higher Self, which, remaining detached, has played the role of many individuals through your soul’s many lifetimes. This lifetime it’s been you, in a past life someone else, in a future one, assuming you don’t realize your higher Self in this lifetime, someone else. In the Gita, Krishna, the teacher, tells his student, “As a man casting off worn-out garments takes other new ones, so the dweller in the body casting off worn-out bodies takes others that are new.” (Maharishi Mahesh Yogi translation)
The actor detaches from who he is to let another being live through him. When you realize your true nature, you let another being live through you; not a new character but who you’ve always been. You’ll see that your personality is really a role, just like Clark Kent is a role Superman plays.
So to paraphrase the Wizard of Oz, “Pay less attention to the actor behind the dropping curtain.” Not because he’s a fraud, like the wizard, but because he represents the infinite creativity within yourself. While he might not invite you to play Hamlet, Stanley Kowalski, or Groucho’s Rufus T. Firefly, he quietly invites you to connect to the silent, yet infinitely creative source within yourself through meditation.

“Responsibility can never be given. It can only be taken.”
—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Meatless burgers, once the darling of vegetarians, is now the darling of stock investors, and can be eaten at fast food chains like Burger King.
“As I go through meditation and repeat the mantra time after time and sit in silence, I recognize that everything I need is within me already!”
— Sergio Anacleto
Network Architect
Sydney, Australia
As many of you know, two of the greatest passions in my career are teaching meditation and coaching. And now the two have come together in a brand new method. Let me explain.
The Higher Self Healing Meditation that I founded in 2010, after teaching Transcendental Meditation for decades and training dozens of its teachers, can give you the experience of the Transcendent, the inner Being within you. When you combine the experience of the Transcendent with an advanced form of coaching you get my newest offering—Transcendental Coaching.
What makes Heaven on Earth Coaching unique is that it draws upon mankind’s ancient timeless wisdom—from the Hebrews, Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, the Vedas of India, and the native Americans of our own continent–to help coach you into the life that you were truly born to live. It incorporates deep knowledge of the way that the Universe operates, so that your life can flow in tune with the Laws of Nature. Enjoy clarity for your mind, purity for your heart, prosperity for your net worth, and spirituality for your soul. It takes into account the knowledge of Karma, the knowledge of Dharma (action in accordance with Cosmic Law), the knowledge of clearly defined higher states of consciousness, and an understanding of the nature of Enlightenment itself. This helps bring your life increasingly in tune with Nature, and to live in freedom.
The result of this attunement is more frequent experience of synchronicities (being in the right place at the right time), less struggle, less resistance to the fulfillment of your desires, and an overall greater sense of your life as a delightful flow.
The prerequisites for Heaven on Earth Coaching are the 3-day training in Higher Self Healing Meditation, and 10 hour-long coaching sessions.
When I taught Transcendental Meditation for several decades, I could only teach it in person. But since founding Higher Self Healing Meditation in 2010, I’m happy to say that the training is now available from a distance if you have a webcam on your computer. Let me know if you’d like to take advantage of this valuable stress-reducing method, even if you live far from my homes in upstate New York and south Florida.
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 meditation teacher. If you inspire someone to become my student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the course fee. That means a check for you of $50 for caring enough about the people in your life that you’d like them to live with more freedom from stress. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.” My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?
I also give you 20 percent of the revenues for any meditation course that you produce or sponsor for me. Sponsoring means finding a time and space for the free introductory lecture and the three days of hour-and-a half classes—it could be your own living room, if you like—and it can also be held on the Internet as a webinar. I would email you a flyer for the lecture, which you’d then email to the people in your life. If five people learn to meditate, for example, you would enjoy $500 for your work.
Would You Like to Receive This Free Service?
Before the advent of smart phones, we often got wake-up calls from hotel desk clerks when we were away from home. Many of us physically wake up today with alarms. Others use coffee to wake up mentally, others with meditation to wake up spiritually.
Now, with “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service, delivered to your email box at 5 AM, you can receive a daily morning wake-up of your inner being in 30 seconds or less. Think of it as a kind of 1-Minute Inner Wake-up, except it’s about a quarter of the length of a minute.
Quite a number of people who I’ve coached over the years have asked for such a service. As a result of an overwhelming response to a recent poll, I’ve tailored it to your specific interests.
Your poll replies indicate that you’re interested in:
So I’ll be including them in “Your Morning Wake-up Call” service. Would you like to receive it? If so, respond to this email with a positive reply. I look forward to helping you wake up to the greatness that is your true nature.

The author of How to Overcome Procrastination Now, who’s been leading workshops on the subject for the past 18 years and coaching people on the topic for as long, I look forward to helping you create breakthroughs in overcoming this insidious and debilitating habit.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 7—8 PM Eastern time and will be held on six consecutive Thursday nights:
September 19, 26, October 3, 10, 17, 24.
The program is open to the first six people who register. The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $5 more per session if fewer than 6 sign up. If you’d like to reserve your spot, call
845-664-1883.

Article: My Cat: A Life in Purrfect Balance
In our overworked workaday world much is made by those in the medical, psychological, and spiritual communities of the importance of living a balanced life. Despite such warnings, far too many Americans still are clueless how to find a balance of work and play, and socializing and alone time. If they’re among the many millions of people blessed to have one or more of the 95.6 million pet cats (as of 2017) in the U.S., they have, right in front of their noses, a living, loving example of a life in balance. I’ll explain.
My cat Ananda (Sanskrit for bliss), named for the extraordinary speed with which she goes into purring mode (zero to 60 in a second), lives a healthy balance of her time indoors and out. She enjoys a balance of the basic life groups needed for happiness and balance: love, spirituality, exercise, sport, and time with Nature. I’ll expand on each of these.
For exercise, Ananda chases my laser pointer light whenever I shine it in her direction. She also chases her fellow cat for calorie burning. Fortunately, no one gets hurt; it’s all in fun, so there’s no harm, no foul. And I’m also fortunate she doesn’t get any of the fowl next door, as she hasn’t hunted down any of the chickens who live there. Sometimes, Ananda will also chase invisible things—invisible to us, at least, but maybe not to her heightened perception.
My little feline also gets in a healthy dose of work, although you might not see it as that on surface inspection. I’m referring to what you might think of as her sport—hunting. While she gets her three squares a day as my housemate, there’s enough instinct left in her to hunt for food—the work life of an animal in the wild. And she gets plenty of that, too, chasing down field mice, chipmunks, squirrels and birds. Fortunately for the latter two, she almost never succeeds. As for the first two, well, Nature takes over, and my huntress pet manages to capture her share of prey.
She loves to relax in Nature, also, often resting in my garden, while soaking in the vitamin D of the warm sunshine. Other times, she’ll sun bathe on our deck, right beneath our St. Francis bird feeder, just in case some robin or blue jay happens not to notice her there while they dive down for a snack.
When she wants to deepen her spirituality, she’ll sidle up next to me when I meditate. She seems to enjoy the effects of what might be referred to as second hand mantra, as she purrs her little tush off. Her bliss is quite audible and tactile, as well. I’d go so far as to say that she enjoys the taste of bliss far more than almost every two-legged being I ever met.
Other times during the day when she wants to chill out after a workout of chipmunk chasing, she might take a catnap to catch some Zs. And she never sets an alarm, content to get up when she gets up. While she leads an active life, she has no schedule. This also adds to her profound peace of mind and balanced lifestyle.
Love is hugely important to Ananda, as well; without any warning, she’ll often come up to my wife and nuzzle her nose against my wife’s finger. Or maybe she’ll just snuggle. Perhaps she’ll hop into my lap while I’m watching TV. This cat cuddling gives her warmth and companionship, to say nothing of warmth if winter temps have plummeted, or summer air conditioning has gotten too chilly for her. No agenda for Ananda, she just wants to deepen her experience of loving and being loved.
And if she wants to change her consciousness she’ll find one of the catnip toys that I have laying around the house and bite into it to release its consciousness-changing herb. Like wine in the days of Jesus, like mushrooms and plants to indigenous peoples of the American southwest, she’ll partake in this, her herb of choice. It seems to have a healing effect on her. Just think of it as a kind of medi-cat marijuana.

For many years I’ve conducted full-day meditation retreats in different parts of the country where I happened to be for a while. These included south Florida, north Florida, and Woodstock and New Paltz in New York’s Hudson Valley. They provide a day of profound rest, renewal, and healing, in which you get a chance to take another big step toward Enlightenment. Instead of your usual twice-a-day daily meditations, you’ll get to meditate 8 times for four hours. These events were very well and good for meditators in those areas, but what about all those many meditators in other parts of the country who couldn’t make it because of geography?
Toward that end, I experimented with making a remote access retreat available for a very dedicated meditator in the Far West while I was conducting retreats in each of the above named areas. Enter technology: Recently, I expanded my experiment once again, this time making the same full-day $75 remote retreats available for two meditators separated by many hundreds of miles from each other and me. It went swimmingly. Here are their accounts, first from a veteran of more than a dozen in-person retreats in Jacksonville, FL, then from a meditator who has done a similar number of retreats, all by remote.
“On May 19 I was able to experience a Higher Self Healing Meditation Retreat with Cary and another meditator in two far away locations with telephone. I was open to the idea, as I so enjoy a day of knowledge and deep rest that was offered. I think it went well, because there were no distractions in the place I was, and I could relax without being self-conscious as in a class with other participants. Thank you for suggesting it and please notify me of our next Retreat opportunity.”

“Twelve months after I began practicing meditation, an invitation was offered to join a retreat via cellphone. It sounded similar to joining others from around the country for Group Coaching, in which I had been participating, and enjoying breakthroughs in my life. I’ve now done seven or eight retreats by phone, and I have truly enjoyed them all.
“Some nice things about doing this remotely, have been that I can be in my pajamas, I don’t have to travel (and that can be especially nice if I’m feeling under the weather). My cats enjoy these peaceful and mellow days, too. It has a more far-reaching affect than the usual two times a day sittings of meditation. It puts my life into a better perspective. It feels like I have friends around the country, I recognize their voices and appreciate their virtual companionship as we raise our consciousness together, and that of our communities. It’s really a lovely way to spend the day.”

As a result of the success of this remote retreat I’ve decided to augment my in-person retreats with their remote cousins. The schedule for the next series of full-day remote retreats are listed below:
Sunday October 13
Remote from 10 AM—6 PM Eastern, $75
Contact: Cary (845) 664-1883
Some people at the end of my classes tell me they wish that coaching would cost less. While I’ve always kept my rates very competitive with respect to other life and business coaches, I’ve come up with a form of coaching that’s so inexpensive virtually everybody can afford it. It’s called Group Coaching.
It takes place on a conference line phone call for no more than six people, and it focuses on one topic. Each person in the group will get individual coaching on each call, while everyone else listens and profits, having your issues repeatedly brought up by other people because we stay focused on the topic of overcoming procrastination. A group consciousness also develops, enabling a synergistic effect to usher in breakthroughs for one and all.
The author of How to Overcome Procrastination Now, who’s been leading workshops on the subject for the past 18 years and coaching people on the topic for as long, I look forward to helping you create breakthroughs in overcoming this insidious and debilitating habit.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 7—8 PM Eastern time and will be held on six consecutive Thursday nights:
September 19, 26, October 3, 10, 17, 24.
The program is open to the first six people who register. The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people register, $5 more per session if fewer than 6 sign up. If you’d like to reserve your spot, call
845-664-1883.

The author of Prosperity Aerobics and A Course in Money Miracles, who’s been leading prosperity workshops for 30 years and coaching people on money, business, and career for 21 of those years, I look forward to helping you create financial breakthroughs.
The hour-long sessions will take place from 8:30—9:30 PM Eastern time and will be held on six Thursday and one Monday nights:
September 19, 26. October 3, 10, 17, 24.
The cost for the Group Coaching Program is $30 per session if 6 people sign up, $5 more per session if fewer than 6 do so. If you’d like to guarantee your spot,
call 845-664-1883.
The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who meditate, start with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the video.
Here’s the dial-in number for it:
563-999-1035.
You’ll then be asked for a participant code,
which is 142781 and the pound sign (#).
If you’re in front of a computer, when the time is right you can watch the video that we’ll discuss afterwards. Here’s the link to that video. The upcoming schedule follows below:


The Power of Positive Singing: Higher Consciousness in Musical Theater
Great sages, for thousands of years, have shown mankind how to live the higher life. For thousands of months, so, too, have Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Sondheim, Bernstein, and Porter, among others. This 111-page mini-book’s chapters include “The Power of Positive Singing,” “Song Realization: Falling in Love as a Glimpse of Higher Consciousness,” “Cole Porter, the Angels, & the Gods,” “The Music Man: Fake it Till You Make It,” “My Fair Language: Transformation through Speech in My Fair Lady,” and “Pure Imagination & Animation Yoga: The Wonderful World of Disney Music.” It offers insights into the transformation of consciousness expressed in the songs of so many Broadway and Hollywood musicals.
This delightful and instructive 111-page ebook sells for $14, plus $3.50 shipping & handling, but through October 31, you can get it for $8.40 without any S&H.
The basic course in Higher Self Healing Meditation is easy to learn and even easier to practice; so, too, are advanced techniques, which you can learn, that accelerate your practice. The second technique, for example, expands the benefits of your daily meditation by opening awareness to the most refined levels of inner silence. Think of it as a fertilizer to speed up your growth. This second technique also improves the mind’s ability to cognize thought at more refined levels so that action can be strengthened, increasing your ability to achieve your goals, and thereby grow in fulfillment. This happens naturally and leads to improvements in all areas of life–-physical, mental, and spiritual.
Once you’ve practiced meditation for at least a year, you’re ready to learn your next technique. The cost for this advanced method is half of the cost of the first: $250. What’s more, it can also be learned via Skype and a webcam.
If you’d like to enjoy the benefits that the second technique provides, email me at successaerobics@aol.com or call (845) 664-1883.
“The advanced technique has brought me into deeper and more profound experiences where I become much more aware of colors that tie into my chakra’s and become aware of a state of consciousness where I have no thoughts for extended periods along with no mantra and I am just aware of feelings of bliss and joy tied into the colors expanding into my awareness.”

Sometimes the environment we hear something in can make the world of difference with regard to how we react to it. Meditation is no different. Toward that end, I enjoy giving free talks on meditation in the living rooms of meditators. If you’d like to share the benefits you’re enjoying from meditation with your family, friends, and co-workers, let me know and I’d be happy to set up an hour-long introduction to the benefits of meditation and explain to those present how it works and how it differs from other programs of personal growth. To set up a living room lecture, just give me a call at (845) 664-1883.
?A number of meditators have expressed interest in deepening their experience with meditation. Toward that end, I created a one-day retreat called “A Retreat into Peace, an Advance in Knowledge.” It provides a day of profound rest, renewal, and healing, in which you get a chance to take another big step toward Enlightenment. Instead of your usual twice-a-day daily meditations, you’ll get to meditate and rest for four hours in a safe and appropriate environment. The deeper experience is complemented by profound knowledge through videos and discussion. What follows is a quote from a meditator who’s hosted many such retreats.
“I have found that meditation reduces my stress, and increases my energy, focus, and capacity for joy. Attending a full-day meditation retreat is always a day of profound rest and renewal. It is hard to describe the feelings of deep peace and contentment that follow the experience. Thank you Cary for making it all possible.”

“The purpose of Creation is the expansion of happiness.”–Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
The advanced meditation webinars, held for those who’ve learned Transcendental Meditation or Higher Self Healing Meditation on Thursday nights at 7 PM eastern time, start off with me opening the “floor” to questions about your meditation practice and/or understanding of the path of evolution of consciousness. Then, I’ll do a group meditation check. After that, I’ll direct you to a link for a talk by Maharishi, which each meditator can play on his or her computer. Lastly, I’ll take questions, and lead a discussion about the video.
If you’d like to attend, please let me know ahead of time and I’ll give you the link to the video we’ll be watching.
You need to call in advance, as I won’t answer the phone once the webinar begins.
The schedule follows below:
A UCLA study that was published in Journal of Instructional Psychology, and was conducted among at-risk minority high school kids who began Transcendental Meditation, showed a 36 percent reduction in overall psychological distress during a four-month period.
Substantial decreases were found in trait anxiety and symptoms of depression. A total of 106 students–68 who meditated, 38 who didn’t–participated in the study. Eighty percent of the kids were racial and ethnic minorities.
When I taught Transcendental Meditation for several decades, I could only teach it in person. But since founding Higher Self Healing Meditation in 2010, I’m happy to say that the training is now available from a distance if you have a webcam on your computer. Let me know if you’d like to take advantage of this valuable stress-reducing method, even if you live far from my homes in upstate New York and south Florida.
Your Suspension System, Your Nervous System, & Self Realization
I bought my first car when I was 22, and running the Transcendental Meditation center in Springfield, Ohio. It was anything but a smooth driving machine. This was especially true when I took to the road when it snowed days earlier, and potholes replaced the snow on the ground. I’d hit every bump on the road-and with each one, I’d wonder how long those beat-up shock absorbers would last. (That’s assuming there were shock absorbers in that car. Perhaps they’d left for warmer climes, like automotive after-parts snowbirds).
One day, I was a passenger in the car of an affluent Buckeye, whom I’d taught to meditate –a middle-aged woman driving the latest model Mercedes Benz. It was the first time I’d ever rode in a German luxury car, and was amazed at how peaceful the ride was. It was as if the same potholes that had shaken up my Ford hunk of tin so drastically the day before didn’t exist anymore. In the new Mercedes, the quantity of potholes hit was far fewer than in the antique Ford, and the impact was far less intense, as well. I almost called Peter, Paul and Marry to see if they’d record my song, “Where Have All the Potholes Gone?”
This story communicates, by analogy, how the nervous system changes with the practice of Higher Self Healing Meditation. The average nervous system is beat up, like that old Ford pile of junk. As one begins to meditate regularly, the nervous system becomes freed of stress, and begins to function more resiliently, picking up less stress each day than it used to prior to starting meditation. As we drive down life’s highway over the years, the meditator’s nervous system becomes transformed, evolving, as it were, into a more modern car, with a healthier suspension system.
As we evolve through meditation over the years, the nervous system becomes freed of all stress and begins to act like the best Mercedes that rolls out of the factory. There are varying degrees of liberation available to the human being; and so the nervous system can continue to evolve from a Mercedes into a Rolls-Royce.
In such elevated states of consciousness, with the nervous system freed of the impediments of stress, you still hit some of the bumps in life–you can still get sick, pets and people you love die, natural disasters occur, and so on-but none of this is felt in anywhere near the same intense way that it was felt before.
This resilience of the nervous system and peace of mind are not achieved through a mood. A person isn’t telling himself while hitting life’s bumps that they aren’t real–or that one shouldn’t let them be so bothersome because, after all, you’re a spiritual being having a human experience. It’s much more natural than all that–it’s like that ride I took in that Mercedes all those years ago; those bumps just aren’t there.
Problems
“The answer to every problem is that there is no problem. Let a man perceive this truth and then he is without problems.”-Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Oregon’s Dept. of Corrections and Dr. Sanford Nidich at Maharishi University of Management studied the use of Transcendental Meditation on high-risk inmates. Within a year and a half, 93 inmates and 16 correctional staff members, including a prison superintendent, chief medical officer, research manager, and prison chaplain, had learned the technique–with reports from staff and inmates all glowing.
Previous studies in Massachusetts at Walpole State Prison, and in California at Folsom Prison, had documented significant reductions in violence and rules infractions among meditating inmates compared to controls–as well as a 33-43% reduction in recidivism, after release. The Oregon study, which expands this earlier research, utilized standard tests to measure meditation’s impact on inmate psychological stress, criminal thinking, spiritual well-being, and symptoms of trauma.
“Since learning meditation, I enjoy much greater clarity of thinking and a lot more focus about what’s important. When I dealt with cancer years ago, I required a daily nap. Since starting meditation, I don’t need these naps anymore, and I’m stronger, healthier, and more confident. I wholeheartedly recommend meditation to anyone who wants more quality of life.” –Candis Whitney, Founder, Whitney’s Marine, Orange Park, FL
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 meditation teacher. If you inspire someone to become my student, you’ll receive 10 percent of the course fee. That means a check for you of $50 for caring enough about the people in your life that you’d like them to live with more freedom from stress. It’s my way of saying, “thanks.” My thought is simple–who couldn’t use a piece of unexpected income?
I also give you 20 percent of the revenues for any meditation course that you produce or sponsor for me. Sponsoring means finding a time and space for the free introductory lecture and the three days of hour-and-a half classes-it could be your own living room, if you like-and it can also be held on the Internet as a webinar. I would email you a flyer for the lecture, which you’d then email to the people in your life. If five people learn to meditate, for example, you would enjoy $500 for your work.
