Finding The Teacher Within

Be still and listen… quiet the mind… breathe deeply and tune in to your own beautiful and powerful healing life force.

Lady Guru was born of the desire to meld art and mindfulness. I believe there lives a Guru in ALL of us. My passion is to reach out with positive affirmations that I, myself, live and breathe by. Life is hectic, filled with distractions and commercialism that pull us away from our own inner truth and wisdom. We forget to honor the “Guru”, that innate teacher, in us all. Lady Guru is a small reminder that there is “more” within, and that “more” is there for the taking, all we have to do is remember.

WELCOME to the premiere of Lady Guru :: Developing A Translucent Business. My hope is that, here, a group of like minded individuals will each play an integral role in the shape and development of the Lady Guru Mission: To inspire people to find compassion, acceptance and peace within themselves and others and to support various organizations around the world that are contributing to the healing of our planet and people.

Lady Guru will fulfill her mission through the artistic means of inspirational quotes and artwork. The execution of this vision will encompass an organized and strategic business development plan beginning with a specific line of environmentally correct products.

What I hope to gain and offer here is a venue to brainstorm and share information that will aid in the growth of a viable business that contributes to a growing market while setting up a business model that supports a higher global consciousness.

Perhaps like many of you, I haven’t always been good at asking for help. But, as I have learned to step away from my ego and fears long enough, I have seen the benefit of bringing strong minds together and the strong outcomes that can result. Along this journey of waking up I have been fortunate to encounter the hearts and minds of many brilliant people who have also been waking up. I am inviting all who have been so supportive, into my life and dreams - asking for your help and drawing upon your wisdom, and at the same time, offering the opportunity to share your knowledge and help others through the means of this expanding global village.

I believe by banding together in support, we CAN change the world and better the future for Earth and Humanity.

Namaste!
Karen Heil

Hello Lady Guru! Count me in. I'd love to share what I know about transculent business and marketing via the internet. I also look forward to the comments of others. Thanks, Robin

thanks, Robin! i can't wait to hear your comments and feedback. i welcome your shamanic presence as well as your words of wisdom regarding internet marketing. and, i know you'll help keep the focus tuned towards the feminine energy, which, i feel, will really play a strong role in moving this process along. i feel if we're going to make an impact, it's time for a shift back towards the feminine to gain a better global equilibrium.

That last line...you said it, sister! And I mean sister in the both literal and abstract, of course.

I'm not sure how I can help, but I'll be sure to visit and pitch in as often as I can...I know I'm sure to gain a lot just from hanging around with you two and anyone else who stops by. Yet another brilliant and creative idea. And thanks so much for starting this!

Hi Karen,

Congratulations! The blog format, the online diary can be very powerful. I wish you well and you definitely have a great message and philosophy to communicate. That aside, I greatly respect anyone who maintains a blog. I started mine last week and have already fallen behind. Oy!

Cheers to you and your translucent community. We all need more of that!

thanks Anne-Marie. i'll be doing my best to stay tuned in regularly. it's the very least i can do after asking all of you to show up!

i would like to introduce Anne-Marie Kovacs who has a wonderful, feminine oriented artist/craftsman site at http://www.thesucculentwife.com/. her aim is to tell the artist's story while supporting their talents. and let me tell you, she's got it happening on that site - there's a ton of talent there with something for everyone!

thanks again for clicking in Anne-Marie!

Hi Karen ~ I love Lady Guru and wish you luck in the land of translucence, hailing as I am from the land of bricks, steel, and oil.

Lady Guru said...

thanks to all of you!

i would love to get some banter going... let me explain to you all where i am at this point in time:
Trade Mark registration is approved!
i currently have about 50 affirmations (some still need tweaking). i have 25 LG yoga postures complete. for starters, i am in the process of designing an affirmation deck of fifty cards; a cohesive line of greeting cards; a calendar; a poster; and 8x10's for framing. all products will be printed on recycled paper with soy inks.

the product ideas for the illustrations are endless but, my main focus right now is to keep the message with the artwork before tagging LG's cute little face all over various products. it's really important to me that her voice is heard before her face can go it alone.

i'm working on redo-ing the website where people can place orders once the products are produced and photos are uploaded to the site. when this is in place, a marketing and PR plan will be rolled out.

please, feel free to post suggestions or ideas. and remember, if any this information aids others who are looking for help in building a translucent business, then we're really making things happen! sat nam!
