Falun Gong or Falun Dafa is an Chinese spiritual practice founded by Mr. Li Hongzhi, that is good for health, mind and body. Its teachings are of the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, which help practitioners improve themselves from the inside out. Such a beautiful practice has benefited over 400 million people in 85 countries around the world, yet in China, its place of origin, it is being violently persecuted by the Chinese Communist Government.
Right now in China, hundreds of thousands Falun Dafa practitioners are being brutally persecuted. Thousands have already died at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Those who survived the detention camps have brought their stories to the public; stories of horrifying torture, physical and mental abuse, and worst of all, live organ harvesting.
The CCP is making a profit from taking the organs from live practitioners and selling them to hospitals for transplant patients. After the bodies are harvested of all useful organs the bodies are then burned to rid of any evidence.
One of the most devastating facts about the situation is that the people of China do not even know what is going on. Because the CCP has such a control over every aspect of China, including the media, they have lied to their people, calling Falun Dafa an "evil cult". Because we have freedom of speech and press in our countries, it is our duty to expose one of the most evil persecutions in history.

20 Temmuz 1999 yılında Çin’deki iktidar partisi olan ÇKP bu ülkede çok sevilen Falun Dafa isimli Taichi benzeri bir tür Çin Yogası olan uygulamayı hiç bir geçerli sebep göstermeden yasakladı fakat sadece yasaklamakla kalmadı. İnsanların ORGANLARI ÇIKARTILIP SATILIYOR. Bu konu hakkında sağlıklı bilgi sahibi olmanız çok önemli. Yasal olarak hiçbir suç işlememiş olan bu sivil insanlardan zorla çıkarılan kornea, kalp, böbrek, karaciğer gibi organlar fahiş fiyatlara gizli bir şekilde satılıyor. Kanadalı ünlü araştırmacı David Kilgour ve dünyanın en ünlü insan hakları avukatı David Mataas hazırladıkları ve tüm dünyaya sundukları çok detaylı bir rapor ile, bu organ ticaretinin varlığını maalesef ortaya çıkardı. Bu rapor şu anda tüm dünya ülkelerinin en önemli gündeminden biri durumunda ve bu konu ile ilgili tüm ilgili kurumlar yoğun bir şekilde çalışıyor. Çok üzücü de olsa şu anda dünyada kaçak yolla satılan organların %75’inin Çin’de çalışma kamplarında zorla tutulan Falun Dafa uygulayıcılarından çıkarılan organlar olduğu tespit edildi. Bu vahşete iştirak ettiği belirlenen tüm ÇKP yetkilileri hakkında neredeyse tüm dünya ülkelerinde soykırım suçundan davalar açıldı. Bu insanlık dışı işlenen suçlar Uluslararası Af Örgütü, İnsan Hakları İzleme Komitesi, Dünya Psikiyatri Birliği, Birleşmiş Milletler İnsan Hakları İzleme Komisyonu raporları ve dünya çapındaki medya organizasyonları tarafından belgelenmiş durumda. 20 Temmuz 1999'dan bu yana hamile kadınlar, yaşlılar ve küçük çocuklar da dahil olmak üzere Falun Dafa uygulama sistemini yapan insanlar hiç bir yargılamadan geçmeden çalışma kamplarına gönderiliyor; binlercesi kanunu hiçe sayarak en uzun süreli hapis cezalarına çarptırılıyor, binlerce kişi tutuklanıp alıkoyuluyor ve neredeyse tamamı insanlık dışı muamele görüyor. Şaşırtıcı bir şekilde insanlara, akıl hastanelerinde sinir sistemini harap eden ilaçlarla işkence ediliyor. Binlerce insan gözetim altında hayatını kaybediyor ve sayısını dahi bilmediğimiz insanın akıbeti meçhul. Şu anda çok sayıda insan organları çıkarıldıktan sonra yakılma tehlikesi altında.

The Sleight of Mind Set Workshops | MindSways - April 2013
SEEING THROUGH ILLUSIONS

Hi,
The Sleight of Mind Set Workshop is a one day, intimate learning experience where we will guide you through a number of principles. You'll learn the Principles of Mind Magic, the Framework of Mind Magic; we'll Explore Why and How Illusions Work, look at the role of MMI's (Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction & Insight) and Thinking Fallacies. Most importantly though, you will Learn And Be Given a Number of Easy and Practical Tricks (with supporting materials) that you can take away with you and start performing and adding to your delivery the next day.
We wanted to make sure you'd get the best out of the one day experience, so we've packed months of one-to-one training sessions and years of our own experience into the day. The themes of the day are Innovation & Creativity, Practically Applied Advantage, Emotional Engagement, Show, Not Tell and the importance of Mystery, Magic and Surprise. For more information on the day, please see mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at mindsways.com/SMS/#Brochure
TAPPING INTO POPULARITY
On the day we talk about the enduring allure and popularity that mystery, the paranormal and Mind Magic has. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown filling theatres and drawing large TV audiences. Part of the popularity is down to the fact that it "May just be real". This is also shown by the new blockbuster film, Now You See Me.
This new film is based on the premise of what if the impossible was real. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, the film shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. It also gives us an insight into how popular magic is, and a fascinating glimpse into what it would be like to have real powers. To see more about the film, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/#NowYouSeeMe.
Today, to stand out we need the personal touch and the sleight of mind set workshop is about tapping into this popularity of mind magic and adding value through your delivery and the personal touch.
Our aim is to make day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity (just how was that done)
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Something to impress others with
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people, tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the personal touch and firing off the silent questions. On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies.
By delivering these tricks, you can evoke the making of the extraordinary. By combining the tricks with the energy of your words, your message and your personality, you make yourself stand out, stimulate fascination and create interest in you. This is when the real magic happens, in the theatre of the minds.
In communications theory the saying "it's not us, its them" has great importance. Likewise in Psychological Artistry and in our Sleight of Mind Set workshops these take on a very important role. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
THE FEEDBACK - What People Say
The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people (from last weeks workshops) saying things like:
"It really was most enjoyable and enlightening"
"Fantastic day... a great eye opener!"
"Another great course, with plenty to think about and over"
The workshops have been enjoyed and shown to be beneficial to many people over the past year. The events have been attended and proved to be relevant to people from a wide range of backgrounds including entrepreneurs, business consultants, health professionals, coaches of life, performance and sports, therapists, hypnotherapists, trainers etc.
This is an unorthodox approach to understanding human behaviour, illustrating and promoting our messages, and this is where the real power lies. As Marty Neumeier says in ZAG " Be Different - NO Really Different". For more on what people say, please see mindsways.com/WPS/
THEATRE OF THE MIND - Tricks on 3 Levels
On the workshop we uncover tricks, look at making a trick into an effect and making the effect into a piece that works for you. The three levels we work on are:
Effect of a trick - triggers "how did you do that?"
Analysis of a trick - triggers "why does this trick work? Why does the effect happen?"
Practicality of a trick - explores how you can use the tricks
This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic. The principles and lessons are useful in understanding our belief systems, how we think and act. It is in our minds that we experience emotions, thoughts and actions. These are in turn determined by the silent questions we ask ourselves.
We use Mind Magic effects as a reflection of how the mind works. We use the 3 levels above as a lens to increase our understanding how our minds control our actions, emotions and thoughts. It is through this that our minds tell us stories that justify our actions. For more on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
Psychological Artistry is the blending of the science of how we think, and the combination of:
Creating connection, rapport and emotions
Telling stories
Gaining and holding attention
Producing insights
Displaying human nature
Cognition
Show, Not Tell
Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction and Insights (MMI's)
to create a method for successful communication. Therefore, Psychological Artistry is where science and art meet Mind Magic.

Born in Victoria, BC, Canada in July of 1965, Warren is a pioneer of highly detailed comic art.
He has adhered to fine art sculpting principles throughout his long career and is considered the most consistently representative comic sculpture in the world.
As a youth in the Fairfield area of Victoria, Warren was encouraged by a number of mentors and teachers to sculpt in the free-standing form, a practice he has never strayed from. One of his funniest memories was when he was a young and impressionable teenager in an advanced sculpting class. Warren was enthusiastic when the teacher said they were going to sculpt a live model one evening. He was not quite prepared as the beautiful woman completely disrobed on the stage in front of the students. Being the shy, youngest member of the class he quickly turned around and sculptured a very long haired woman rising out of a rock at the waist. The model was not pleased with his work but the teacher loved it!
warren stratford Warren soon began to concern himself with his lifelong objective: portraying the variations of humor and atmosphere brought on by comical things he thinks about. Rather than copy others as was the traditional practice of young artists, Warren learned from people around him, from the landscape itself, and from the works of his older contemporaries. Warren’s representation of humor are based on his observations of people he meets and interviews.
He often shows natural color by breaking it down into its different components as a prism does. Eliminating dull and boring from his palette, Warren rejected entirely the academic approach to comic sculpting.
Warren gIn the Signature Series Warren allows his vision of light to dissolve the real structures of his subjects. To do this he chose simple subjects, making several humorous studies of the same subject at different occupations or activities.
Warren shares his time between Asia and his home town Victoria. Look for more Signature Series as Warren is always finding humor wherever he goes.
Warren’s work is particularly well represented in shops around the world. It is also included in many famous private collections.
