Theater Arts

Dance, music, theater -- the Arts are a universal language among diverse people worldwide. We learn so much more when we put words to song, or emotions to dance. Children embody the essence of the arts. They teach us to "dance as if no one were watching, sing as if no one were listening, and live every day as if it were your last." I love the arts, and believe that we achieve joy through their beauty. When we can laugh and play as a child, we can be healed.

Animals & Nature

Wildlife and natural places bring a sense of wonder and connectedness into our lives. We realize that we are not alone. The beauty of Nature is a balm to the soul. These natural places and creatures can bring balance to our urban lifestyles, and be great teachers on the inter-relatedness of us all. This balance and spiritual balm is what we seek when we visit an urban zoological park or a wild tropical jungle.

Spiritual Connections

Spirit is universal. We are connected like the drops which make up the ocean. The unity that we are striving to achieve is found when we recognize that all peoples, places, and things are spiritual energy. All healing (business, personal relationship, environmental) can be achieved by healing our spirit -- by bringing into our lives what we want, and by taking our what no longer serves us.

Choosing & Creating Peace

Peace is always present, but we must choose to see and acknowledge it. Tourism For Peace (TFP) is a program designed to engage tourists and host country tourism professionals & residents in creating and promoting peace -- between cultures, religions, languages, and economic strata. Peace & prayer ceremonies bring acknowledgement that we can be the spiritual peacemakers needed to create a unified world.
