What are you doing for New Year’s Eve. We’d love to have you join us in person or by zoom to chant and drum in your highest intentions for 2025 with our annual NEW YEARS EVE SHAMANIC INTENTION SETTING CEREMONY in person or by zoom with Dr. Elder Patrick J. Harbula & Corina Harbula. 

NEW YEARS EVE SHAMANIC INTENTION SETTING CEREMONY

This ceremony was given to me by a powerful Shaman 35 years ago, and I have been doing it every year since, and inviting others to our home for the last 22 years to share in the powerful fun! 
The ceremony is for releasing the old and bringing in the new. This is a very powerful ceremony that will change your life, so be careful what you ask for. Bring a drum or percussion instrument, and we have plenty of extras if you don’t have one.

You must reserve a spot to attend, and we are keeping it to a maximum of 20 people for the in-person event at our home and 20 for the zoom meeting as well. The zoom is only for non-local people and we can make a few exceptions for locals if transportation is not possible. If you’re local, we want your lovely self here in person! 🙂

To reserve, please send your payment through venmo.com @Corina-Villeda-1 (preferred) or Zelle to 805-469-9847. Please include with your payment your email, zip, and cell number and whether you are attending virtually at 3 p.m. PST (for non-locals) or in person at 7 p.m. PST with your payment. 

WHAT TO EXPECT: The ceremony involves each participant writing, speaking, and burning in 4 separate rounds:

  • For what we are grateful for from the past year
  • For what we are releasing that no longer serves us
  • Our intentions for the new year
  • Our prayers for the world.

Past participants in this ceremony have reported powerful manifestations in the coming months following the ritual. Here is a quote from a previous attendee: “We’re so excited about the New Year’s Ceremony! We had a huge rate of return from a previous ceremony. One item after another manifested itself – and we still have a month to go!” Eric Shapiro, Director, Writer, Actor.

EXISTENTIAL KINK: UNMASKK YOUR SHADOW AND EMBRACE YOUR POWER
I’m so excited to be teaching this class for the third time based on a fun and radical book: “Existential Kink: Unmask Your Shadow and Embrace Your Power” by Carolyn Elliot. To give you more of an idea of the theme, the byline is “A method for getting what you want by getting off on what you don’t.”

 8 Sundays beginning 1/25, 3:30 to 6 p.m. PDT by Zoom

Because of the intimate nature of this work, we are limiting the class to 20 max.

Cost: $250 for 8 weeks. We will have limited partial scholarships. Just ask!
$200 early bird price if paid for by 1/18/26

To register, send $50 deposit or full amount (include email and phone) by Venmo to @Corina-Villeda-1 or Zelle to 805-469-9847.

For more info: 805-469-9847 www.livingpurposeinstiute.com/calendar.

  • Learn why “having” = “wanting” at a deep subconscious level.  
  • Practice manifesting what you want by getting off on what you don’t!
  • Find out how easy and fun shadow work can be with this teaching.
  • Create the life of your highest visions with grace and ease!
  • Learn how shadow work can actually be an orgasmic experience!

I highly recommend using the audible as well as the paperback edition for the class. Her playful sarcasm and humor come across really well in audio, and you will need the print edition for the exercises. You can get the audible with a free trial subscription through www.audiobooks.com or of course from amazon.com. 

This is the most progressive, radical, fun, and easy shadow work I’ve ever experienced, and I’ve been facilitating shadow work for over 30 years. This is only the 3rd book I’ve gotten really excited about in the last 15 years. The other two are “Busting Loose from the Money Game” And Byron Katie’s “A Mind at Home With Itself,” (and I love all her books). I’ve taught the latter a few times and the former many. This teaching is an extension of both those teachings. If you have taken Busting Loose from me, or are familiar with the book, it’s taking a deeper dive into those limiting eggs (belief patterns), or in this case, unconscious desires, in order to claim back power. If you’ve done Busting Loose or any kind of law of attraction work and still aren’t manifesting what you want, this teaching is the answer. 

I will warn you it’s not for everyone. If you have misgivings about diving deep into your lower unconscious to discover and heal what’s there, this isn’t for you. If you have hang-ups about sexuality, the presentation will challenge you. Much of the language is definitely not PG rated, so if you are put off by that, this also may not be for you. It is recommended that you don’t do EK work if you are currently depressed. I highly recommend the audible (I’m on my 5th listening). Her playful sarcasm and humor enhance the fun of the presentation in the audio version. 

One way I see this teaching is this: Most of our spiritual work (including shadow work) is approached through upper chakras—heart, head, etc. And certainly, a good dose of solar plexus in shadow work although less common in basic new thought and self-help. This teaching brings it down to the lower chakras especially emphasizing the sacral or sexual center. We’d love to have you join us on this journey of deep healing and transformation!

Testimonial

Sage Publications is a world-renowned academic publisher that has grown from a 32-million dollar company to over 100 million in 15 years.

I fully believe that we could not have accomplished the success in our organizational goals that we have realized without the guidance and leadership from Patrick Harbula.

A valuable day of focus and encouragement. Since the LPI training, my position at the job I already loved has completely shifted to come into alignment with my clearer sense of purpose.

Learning that what was missing in my childhood is a gift that contributes to my life purpose, helped me identify how to change some of my patterns. I got my money's worth by lunchtime!

Patrick Harbula's appearance at our Center was a phenomenal success. It was the largest turnout and MOST PROFITABLE we have had for a workshop since I have been the minister here. We had standing room only for the Sunday service and 78 participants in the paid workshop. Patrick also dropped in and co-facilitated the class we were doing on his book The Magic of the Soul, and the students raved about the experience. Patrick's office secured a lot of publicity on their own including a national radio show that brought many new people to the center. Six months later people are still talking about their experiences with Patrick.

We had Patrick Harbula at the Center for Spiritul Living Princeton, and my community loved him and his workshop. He spoke at my service, and he was warm and welcoming. His workshop later that day was extremely well attended and financially very profitable! In his workshop, he focused on one's Divine Purpose and gave wonderful tools for everyone to continue working on their purpose and goal-setting. Patrick is also VERY generous.

I am offering the former ICSL accredited course, Magic of the Soul, using Patrick's book and curriculum next term, and his workshop was a great kick-off for that class. I may have to add an additional class (for the first time) because the interest in that class is so strong. In short, I highly recommend Patrick to come to you, both as a speaker, workshop facilitator, and a wonderful colleague. He is a dear man and friend.

I was so excited when I first heard that Patrick Harbula had given his consent for ICSL to use The Magic of the Soul as part of our 200 series for Science of Mind classes. I found the curriculum well suited to bring out the best in a group. It is inspiring and fun for both teacher and students. My class particularly appreciated the guided exercises on the accompanying CD.

Patrick Harbula was a delight to have at our Center. A total professional but with the graces that go beyond the requirement. He created rapport with my congregation the moment he opened his mouth. His teaching was clear and my congregation responded beautifully to him, his workshop and his Sunday lesson. Great reviews did come from his workshop. Thank you Patrick for the work that you are doing. And to the field, inviting this man in to your Center is a great idea. Patarick has a beautiful consciousness and is a man of Principle and demonstration.

We had the Rev. Patrick Harbula at our Center last month for his workshop "Busting Loose From The Money Game". He did a NorthEast tour and taught at several Centers in the area. It was a great event. Patrick is clear, authentic, inspiring and open hearted. He brought something fresh and new and yet, deeply steeped in our teaching. I felt inspired by his presentation. I highly recommend him for an event at your centers.

Patrick brings a unique energy to his presentations, workshops, and meditations, and I always receive the highest praise for from our misters, practitioners, and congregants. Patrick has a certain magnetism that inspires and draws people to receive the wisdom gained from his vast experience in metaphysical studies, the ministry, and corporate success. His Busting Loose from the Money Game class last year was the second largest class we had for the year at our Center. I heartily endorse him for any spiritual community looking to create a positive spiritual experience for its members.

. . . . I have had the opportunity to see the benefits of his work when he has presented his seminars at OneSpirit Center for Conscious Living on several occasions. . . . Patrick has a rich background of training in New Thought, meditation, spiritual psychology, and corporate success. I consider him to be a selfless mystic who extends himself from his heart. By my observation, that’s Patrick’s strongest quality—he has the ability to open people’s hearts at a deep and most authentic level. His lectures are strongly based on New Thought principles and his workshops are a place where healings happen. I am honored to know Patrick, consider him a friend, and am especially pleased to be one of the facilitators in the Life Coaching Certification Program through his organization, The Living Purpose Institute.
