10 years in the USA....6 days in Switzerland
It has been 3 busy months ...I have been going to the recording studio "factory underground" in Norwalk, CT, with Audrey and Cara where we are recording our songs with Kenny Cash (producer). I was interviewed on CT channel 8 for CT Style with Desiree Fontaine, who is lovely and was certainly interested in doing the Avatar Course.
And ...last week, my family and I moved to Switzerland.
We are now in a small village of 3000 people, but next door are the schools, the bakery, grocery shopping, pizzeria, a dance school and a consciousness training center! what a coincidence.
When we arrived at the airport my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law where holding Welcome balloons. When we arrived at our new place, there was a big sign of welcome on our door with a typical bread from Switzerland, called 'breads' homemade by my mother's cousin, who lives in the same town.
I noticed a couple of things that are soooo different than in the USA.
The first one are the garbage bags:
You have to buy special garbage bags from your town, with a stamp on them, and they are $3 a bag...and guess what, it's great! this means the polluter/non-recycler will pay more. The $3 price is to encourage or enforce recycling, which is made very easy, next to every building or house, there is a place with trash/compost/recycling containers. and the $3 includes the taxes to get rid or burn the trash we make. Clever no?
Another I noticed was at the local beautiful public swimming pool, how women are so not self-conscious about nudity...well that's another subject...
We spent about a week here exploring in the Swiss-German part and tomorrow we are going to Geneva(French speaking part), where my family lives.
It is said that moving is one of the hardest thing to do, and I must say that I thank Harry P. every day for having created the Avatar tools. I use them everyday, to keep grounded and happy.
When I moved to the USA 10 years ago I did not have these tools and for a whole month I was crying every morning for about 1hour before I could do anything. It's like I was in chock.A friend told me about the Avatar course after a year in New York, and it saved my life.
This time around, I feel stable and I feel like I am creating exactly what I'd like to create right now.
I am preparing for the July International Avatar Course and will fly to Florida on July 1st. My girls will stay with my husband, their cousins and my parents for 12 days. They will have fun for sure!
If you want to join me and many others on the adventure of the Avatar Course, get the set of tools that makes everything so much easier, then contact an Avatar Master near you. or email me. let's chat my friend! be bold!
love you

Music Songs Recycling
It started a couple of weeks ago, when one of my students, Natascia, at the Ariane Studio, told me about the new Disney project "Send It On", a new song, a few young artists, and it's a hit. Disney is giving out a million dollars to help clean the Earth, and you can vote when you have pledged and taken action. Mmm, I thought "that's a great idea, a great purpose and I would love to help and be part of it".
I always have been the "green" type of girl as long as I can remember.
When I was 11 or 12, living in Switzerland, I was "educating" my parents about not trowing paper in the trash, or batteries or aluminum. On the street, I would go in delivery trucks that would let their engine on, and turn them off...oh well I was bold, and I still am in a different way. I tried to make wise choices and in regard to the whole picture.
For example I waited for Nicolas Hayek (creator of the Swiss Company Swatch) to realize his environment friendly car to buy it, but then he gave up...sold his project to Mercedes and that Smart Green Car never came out. So I gave up too, and I bought at 23 (yes I waited all these years) my first car. Now that they came out with Hybrid, I of course bought one when I had to change my vehicle, I drive a Prius.
So here I am at the Ariane Singing and Avatar® Studio (Avatar is a self-empowerment course, go onto arianeavatarstudio.brightegg.com or email if you are curious) and I have a bunch of great talented singer and songwriter, we write, play and record music, we could associate ourself with the Disney project, but we probably are much too small, but we can do something. So I started.
On December 19 2009, the Ariane Studio (located in Hamden, CT) has a concert in New York city, where the singers showcase their talents, the work of the year with originals and covers.
At the occasion and until then, I decided to raise money for a Green Purpose, to also raise awareness in my community and beyond about what we can do.
In the past week, here what happened: I talked at my little daughter's school and they are now on the way to recycle in the classrooms, something they were not doing.
I bought a compost bin in my town for $20 and installed it, we already were composting at my house, but the slow way, this way will be more efficient to create organic soil for the garden. Also I bought an extra one and will donate it to my older daughter's school, go at their green committee and get the process going.
ACTION:
You too, you can do it, check if your town sells those compost bin with a little container for the kitchen. You collect veggies, fruits, eggs shell and you create more soil for your garden, and you avoid taxes and trash.
I talked with the Recycling coordinator in my town, we are going to meet and prepare a project we will support and create. The singers are excited to have a purpose.
If you don't know what to do: Help Someone!!
And raise your own awareness by doing the Avatar® Course.
I'll be back soon with more actions and steps to take to make our earth clean and stop global warming. Every little action counts! Every action counts!
Find your voice within and do what's right for the whole!
love, light
