2014 Year End Sharing

Dear friends,
To give thanks for that I receive, to celebrate life and share blessings with all those who need it, I am holding a Half-Price Christmas Sale of two of my books, Chinese Heart Songs and Via Lucis (Way of Light) for $5 each.  And $20 for any 5 books!
Also, I am pleased to offer half-day, mini-retreats on Healing and Blessings through body, art and silence from January to before Chinese New Year to continue this theme of Gratitude and Celebration of Life!
For 2015, I have been invited to present a workshop at the Spiritual Directors International (SDI) Emerging Conference in April.  I feel blessed and very grateful for this honour.
SDI is a non-for-profit organisation and they will not be covering my travel expenses to the event.  The money raised from both the book sales and retreats, I shall happily use to pay my way to Louisville, Kentucky.  This is near Thomas Merton’s home and the conference is to be held there in conjunction with the centenary of his birth.
Please email me if you would like to order these books, or to request to host a mini-retreat in your home, church or community.  Otherwise, feel free to join me at home in KL on Saturday, Feb 28 and Sunday, Mar 1st.
Please share this email with others too.  Thank you
Happy Thanksgiving and Advent BlessingsNita

What is a Life Coach or Spiritual Director?
A spiritual director, or more popular term "life-coach" is a professionally trained companion and friend who listens to your deepest desires, or just a listener to all that is going on in your life at the present moment, and helps you heal, grow and achieve your deepest desires.  A friend who walk with you, supporting you, encourages you and help you stay-on the journey to become to best YOU that you can be.

This journey begins with getting to know yourself, becoming aware of your habits, or patterns, and helping you to become more aware and awake. Life-coaching and spiritual direction is totally non-judgemental and you can come from any walk of life, any faith or cultural background.  It is about the Real You.

Spiritual direction or coaching with Nita is currently available through Skype.  Suggested love offering per session is US$60.  For further information and to book your first FREE session, please contact RunWaters@ gmail.com (all one word, no spacing)

Teachers Gifting Food and Education (2011-2012)
Dear fellow teachers and friends,
Christmas is the season of loving and sharing.  This year, I would like to focus on children and their basic needs, and would invite all of you to join me in giving a special gift this Christmas.
A good friend of mine works at a small center in Kuala Lumpur that serves as school for more than 100 Myanmar refugee children, ages 6-17.  The Malaysian government does not recognise refugee status and these children do not have the right to education here.  You may wish to visit the center’s website to better understand their needs - www.myhelpcommunity.blogspot.com.
I was inspired to raise funds for these kids this Christmas and I’m calling my project "Teachers Gifting Food and Education".  I am making it my goal to speak to at least 100 teachers of any discipline, be it Sunday school, art or taichi, and I would like to ask that each of you would in turn speak to 10 other people to help raise money for this center through the sale of my books.  Every dollar made in profit will go towards the kids.
In the current economic situation, $1 may not go very far.  But in this part of the world, for $1 a child eats for a day.  At $365, that child eats for a year.  But with $3,650 the whole school eats for a year.  So my goal is to raise US$3,650 this November and December so that we can buy food and notebooks for the kids.  
If you are thinking of buying books as Christmas presents for friends and family, please consider getting my books too.  You might wish to print out a copy of this letter to be included with the gift so that your loved ones know where the money is going.
The books are available on Amazon.com for US$3.99, and on Amazon UK for £2.90.   However, these are ebooks for Kindle: http://www.amazon.com/Nita-Ng/e/B005VAV8OG

(Note: This link does not work in East and Southeast Asia.  Alternatively please use Amazon UK - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nita-Ng/e/B005VAV8OG)
If you would like a paper copy of the books, these are available for the same price* through direct order from me.  Please send your order and cheque payable to me, Nita Ng at:No. 1, Jalan Helang Siput 3Taman Sinar Suria52100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia    (Please include your email  & phone number)
Or, email me at RunWaters @ gmail.com for electronic payment details.  Thank you.
Thank you and blessingsNitawww.RunWaters.blogspot.com
*The same price of $3.99 is applicable in Canadian and Australian dollars.  It is S$5.00 in Singapore and RM10.00 in Malaysia.  Thank you.

Love, Peace and Joy Walkabout

Dear friends,

Every year I ask myself the question, “What would I do if I only have a few more months to live?”

In view of world events in recent months, my answer to this question seems to be more encompassing and less self-focused.

This year, I would like to visit friends and family and spend time to be with them. I’m calling this roadtrip my “Walkabout”, covering Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong, England and perhaps other countries in Asia.

While visiting friends in these places, I would like to share my gifts with ALL who are interested – Body Balance, laughter, batik and meditation.

If any of you or your friends who live in the above places are interested in experiences these sessions at home, at work, school, church or their neighbourhood “rukun tetangga”, please let me know and I will be happy to come by. Everything will be done on a ‘Love Sharing’ basis--donation as a gift exchange, to help cover travel expenses so that I can continue to share with others in different places.

For more information about me, feel free to email me at YogaPark 'at' gmail.com or check my blog/website at:
www.YogaPark.blogspot.com (yoga website)
www.RunWaters.blogspot.com (art website)

Love, peace and joy to you,
Nita

I give thanks for the Abundance in my daily life!
