Heal Your Life ® Workshop: Getting Started


How are you feeling about your life?  I affirm that it is everything you dreamed!  What’s that .... your don’t dream anymore...too disappointing? ...life has gotten in the way of your dreams? ...dreams don’t come true for you?

Do you have one evening to start dreaming again? Can you give yourself an evening for just you - to begin to remember your joy, your love, your optimism?

If you are willing to give this to yourself - this Heal Your Life ® Workshop: Getting Started Workshop IS for you!!  For those of you who may not be familiar with Louise Hay, this is her philosophy and it truly transforms people. Practical WooWoo™’s CEO, Nancy Pabers, has found it to be so helpful with her own life and her practice with One-on-One clients, that she has become a licensed Heal Your Life ® instructor so that she may reach many people through the workshop media. Nancy offers evening, 1 day, 2 day, and weekly programs.  She will also be offering a 6 week teleclass starting in the New Year.

In this introductory workshop you will:
  1. Discover what beliefs are driving you...what are your beliefs about money, relationships, career & health?


  2. Begin to connect with the power of your own mind & begin to leverage this power to make positive changes in your life.



  3. Learn how you beliefs about “what your deserve” can shift your ability to attract what you want in your life.



  4. Leverage the power of the group; the exchanges that occur in this setting help everyone take their knowledge to the next level!!

Waiting for the Great Pumpkin!


Sure, it all fun and games until you dress up your dog as a biker and have her sit on the front porch waiting for the great pumpkin! 

Yes, this is our wonderful canine, Pele, who graciously indulges my husband and I each Halloween by not ripping to shreds the costume we pick for her.  (There is a small part of me that wants to believe she actually looks forward this this.)  This biker costume was from a few years ago; last year she was a nun in full habit; years before - a fairy with large wings, Superdog, and yes even Blues Clues.  If nothing else, the kids who are trick or treating love to see her. (I, once again, rationalize that this alone makes any indignation that she may endure, all worth while.)

This year, Pele is going Wild West.  Our big issue will be to find her a toy six shooter and holster.  You would be amazed that they really are not that easy to find any more. Not to worry - my husband is determined that he will find one. What would a cowboy/girl/dog of the wild west be without a six shooter?  I can’t imagine it either.

Halloween may be a costume hunt for some, a time of embarrassment for some canines and their adult counterparts alike. But, whether you’ll be giving out treats, receiving tricks or parading your pet in costume, remember there is a chance no matter how small that you will find your own Great Pumpkin.  Crazy maybe --- but I’m with Linus on this one!

Heal Your LIfe ® Workshop in Pacific Beach

We had our first Heal Your Life ® Workshop on September 24, 2009, and it was an amazing success! The specific topic of the evening was Change Your Thoughts...Change Your Life; people of all different backgrounds and ages, from the far reaches of San Diego County came to participate in the workshop. Some had heard of the teachings of Louise Hay and some had not. Everyone left with learning something new about themselves - something they could immediately begin to use or build upon in their everyday life! We got to cover a lot in just a few hours.

Here is what Ann Gladys of San Diego had to say about the workshop:
"Nancy Pabers' Louise Hay Workshop is incredible! I attended the workshop and found Nancy's talent to connect with all of us to be than I could have ever expected. Her natural ability to respect the good in each of us was more than impressive. The workshop exercises enabled me to begin to envision going beyond my self-imposed limits and see more of what is possible in my life. They took my thoughts about success and achievement to a higher level. Kudos to Nancy for an outstanding workshop and an outstanding experience!!!"

Nancy Pabers, CEO/President of Practical WooWoo™, is a licensed
Heal Your Life ® Workshop/Seminar Leader and continues to offer an array of 3 hour, 1/2 day, 1 day and 2 day Heal Your Life Workshops that address the teachings and philosophy principles of Louise Hay. She is home-based in San Diego, CA. ; she also travels around the country to conduct these workshops.

Pondering on Costa Rica...Good for Your Soul & Good for Your Web site!

Just this past January, I had the great fortune to participate in a workshop in the heart of the rain forest at a resort known as Sueno Azul. I fell in love with the many colors of green and the opportunity to see “wet” in a whole new light.

Any one who knows me, knows that one of my least favorite things to be when hiking or camping is wet; this is only surpassed by being cold and wet. There in Costa Rica in the Plains of Northern Sarapiqui my idea of what a “dry season” rainforest trip would be challenged.

My “bff”, Rebecca and I decided at the turn of the New Year that it had been way too long since we got together on a “girl’s trip”. We decided that Costa Rica was the destination and after a successful last minute renewal of my US Passport we were on our way to a writer’s conference lead by a western shaman of sorts. Believe it or not the topic of the conference was not as important to us as the destination. That being said, it was after all a writer’s conference and Rebecca was working on a book and the leader of the workshop was a shaman and I am the Practical WooWoo. So by and by everything had its universal order.

We arrived on a Saturday after an hour and a half bus ride through towns and a national rainforest park; it was some of the most beautiful scenery I had seen.

There was not much time to waste as the workshop started on Sunday with a mix of half days and full days of workshop that were complemented by eco tours of the area. We settled-in and began exploring. The resort, the food, the service, the tours were all exceptional.

The weather turned wet --rReality TV wet. The first two days were sunny and bright with a shower here and there. The remaining five days were showers broken-up by torrential downpours. As workshop participants, we went from writing how lovely the rain was and tenderness of the drops to pleading for whatever it would take to make the rain stop.

The beauty of all of it was that we continued-on. We continued-on with the workshop - each of us making it our own, whether we were furthering a book, developing poetry, or creating a healing experience, we continued-on. We continued-on with the eco-tours - the horseback riding, the zip-lining, the swimming at the swimming hole -- all in the pouring rain.

And much to my "I hate to be wet" self's surprise, it was fun; it was great fun! The forest the resort - everything was so alive. All your senses were enlivened. You could feel the humidity to your core and felt that you would never again be completely dry. You could almost taste the smells of the forest for their aroma lingered in the heaviness of the air -- the richness of the dirt and the green of the trees were no longer just treasures for the eyes to behold. Not only were there more colors of green that I have ever seen but they were just so pleasing against the grays of the rain-filled skies. The sounds once so unfamiliar - the constant patter of rain on the tin roof, the call of the holler monkeys, who sounded more like dogs, and songs of the forest became an orchestra for restful sleep.

I met some truly amazing people there. And, for me it turned out to be the beginning of a healing - a healing that I had been longing for for a very time. So much so that the inspiration for the layout, color palette, and photos used in the new and hopefully improved Practical WooWoo Web site is Costa Rica.

I hope you enjoy the Web site with all the delicious lushness of Costa Rica.

IWCC Conference

The first annual International Wellness Coordinator's Conference (IWCC) was a great success. Practitioners, Wellness Coordinators and members of the Business Community attended the many sessions offered over the 3 day conference.

MBSConnect, one of the key sponsors, was there in force helping the practitioners and attendees with all their needs. The location was wonderful and the weather great! The atmosphere was very collaborative -- practitioners supporting not only the wellness directors but the other practitioners as well. Many ideas were offered and shared among all participants.

Workshop topics included all levels of wellness from physical body work to meditation, from diet and exercise to simple energy tools. The workshop was well worth the trip.

Practical WooWoo was delighted to be a speaker and looks forward to next year's conference.

Practical WooWoo goes to Phoenix






Yes, it is true; next Wednesday I will travel to the Scottsdale Cottonwood Resort near Phoenix and present my workshop "Mind-Body-Spirit Tools...Don't Leave Home Without Them!". My workshop is actually scheduled for March 12, in the afternoon.

This workshop is part of the 1st Annual International Wellness Coordinators Conference and has been developed by MBS Connect - an organization that is in its first year of start-up. MBS Connect connects Wellness practitioners with the Wellness Directors, the Wellness Coordinators and the Human Resource personnel of Corporate America. I love that this is organization is finally here in the US! There are over 900 practitioners all over the US for Corporate America to be able to reach out an touch.

My workshop is going to focus on having the attendees learn and use very basic Mind-Body-Spirit Tools which that can be used in the workplace to reduce stress. The tools are very straightforward and yet very powerful.

I will also provide a business case for why these tools can and should be used in Corporate America as part of an overall Wellness Program.
