			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="fbPhotoSnowboxAuthorName"><a href="http://www.dreamstime.com/free-image.php?imageid=2670481" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-116" title="Photo credit: Lex Schmidt | Dreamstime.com" src="http://touchingthetruth.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/algarve-cave-dreamstimefree_2670481-lex-schmidt-800w.jpg?w=630&#038;h=419" alt="Photo credit: Lex Schmidt | Dreamstime.com" width="630" height="419" /></a></p>
<p>For many years now, I have been working with and assisting in birthing the energies of our new dawn of consciousness. As is always the case, I started the work on myself which then rippled out and became about humanity as a whole.</p>
<p>These are amazing times to be living in. Even if you cannot relate to what I am saying, on a subtle level you cannot fail to feel these changes taking place inside of you. It has been a strange journey at times filled with uncertainty, trepidation and fear. At other times a sense that I may be finally &#8220;losing it&#8221;! But in every step of the way, a sense that whatever it is I do, must be done. I do not have a faith as such, or a place to worship in the traditional sense and I do not have a deity to bow before and honour. What I do have, however, is an inner and outer knowing that there is an essence so powerful, so pure and so very True that informs me, guides me and leads the way to the next step and the next one after that with a quietness that is not demanding or condemning and therefore frees me to choose what is right for me.</p>
<p>Back in February of 2011, my friend Annie and I holidayed in Portugal. We slept, ate, drank, karaoked and mused whilst walking on the beach. The perfect rest and relaxation. We had done this three years earlier, a few months after the death of my mother. This time, I was looking to have some fun and chill out… but things turned out so very different. Our lives were to be changed forever.</p>
<p>We experienced a paradigm shift of such magnificent proportions that life would never be the same again. We had catapulted to another space and time.</p>
<p>It is to this space that we want to take others, those who are ready to experience the unexperienced! Touching the Truth has been set up to share this amazing experience with all who are ready to shift. At the moment, it is for women (only due to logistics); but soon it will also be open to men.</p>
<p>Come and share our experience of shifting in our sacred journey at Touching the Truth. Now is the time for all to answer the call of ascension, to birth the new energies and assist in bringing the new dawn.</p>

<p>At the beginning of 2011, Jacqui Cullen and Annie Zed went to Portugal for a holiday. Being completely in the moment, guided by signs and following intuition, they experienced greater life clarity than it is possible to articulate.</p>
<p><img src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033489-water-fb.jpg?w=540&#038;h=405" alt="" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>The year since has brought deeper connection and alignment with that which we truly are. Now, Jacqui and Annie are offering a nurturing space in which others can also experience this astounding shift into clarity.</p>
<h2>Touching the Truth is about total acceptance of the moment:<br />
who, where and what you are NOW in the context of the Universe.</h2>
<p>Spend 7 days as a member of our Clarity Tribe in Praia da Rocha on the Algarve in Portugal.</p>
<p><img src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033494-beach-sand-ripples-fb.jpg?w=540&#038;h=405" alt="" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>There is no itinerary, there is no map. Together, we will flow harmoniously with nature&#8217;s signals as ancient tribes have always done.</p>
<p><img title="" src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033518-water-swirls-photo-by-annie-zalezsak-800w.jpg?w=540&#038;h=147" alt="" width="540" height="147" /></p>
<p>We will reconnect with the True Essence of our BEing. There is no work, and nothing that must be done. It is staying present to the moment and authentically sitting with what feels most right.</p>
<p><img src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033546-rocks-fb.jpg?w=540&#038;h=405" alt="" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>Stay in a 4 star hotel with indoor spa and pool.</p>
<p><img src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033551-hotel-jupiter-forecourt-fb.jpg?w=540&#038;h=405" alt="" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>Walk with us on pristine beaches and feel the freedom shine.</p>
<p><img title="" src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033612-freedom-fb.jpg?w=540&#038;h=405" alt="" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>Join us, Annie Zed and Jacqui Cullen.</p>
<p><img title="Annie Zalezsak and Jacqui Cullen" src="http://claritytribe.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/img_3540-annie-zalezsak-jacqui-cullen-800w.jpg?w=540&#038;h=359" alt="Annie Zalezsak and Jacqui Cullen" width="540" height="359" /></p>
<p>The cost is £525 per person for 7 nights at a 4 star hotel a short distance from the beach and main strip. There will be 2 people sharing a twin bed room, and for this reason, this trip is open to women only. The hotel provides breakfast. Flights from London Stansted to Faro, 1 standard hold and 1 carry on baggage, and transfers to Praia da Rocha are also included. We depart Saturday the 3rd of March 2012 and return Saturday the 10th. Lunch and dinner are not included, so you will need additional spending money for this and any other purchases you may choose to make.</p>
<p>Although you may spend your time as you wish (on your own or with the group), we do feel you would get a much better experience in a group situation. </p>
<p>There are 6 places available. (We are keeping the group to a total of 8 including ourselves.) Contact Jacqui on 0208 502 3169 to book your place as soon as possible. Full payment is required by Sunday the 8th of January.</p>
<p>Early bird special. Book now and pay by 11th of December to receive a £100 discount. Pay only £425.</p>

<address>— Henry David Thoreau</address>
<p>On our trip to the Algarve in 2008, Annie bought a djembe drum.<br />
We took turns playing it, just for fun.</p>

<p>On our return trip to the Algarve in 2011, we learned to listen to the drum-like beats of our inner hearts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the end of February 2011, Jacqui Cullen and Annie Zed went on a week&#8217;s holiday to Praia da Rocha on the Algarve in Portugal.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6" title="Jacqui and Annie arrive in Praia da Rocha" src="http://touchingthetruth.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/s1033455-jacqui-cullen-annie-zalezsak-in-praia-da-rocha-2011.jpg?w=630&#038;h=389" alt="Jacqui and Annie arrive in Praia da Rocha" width="630" height="389" /></p>
<p>Jacqui usually holidays with her husband, and Annie mainly travels to visit family and friends in her Canadian homeland. Back in 2008, they decided to do a simple, relaxing holiday away from it all, and chose Praia da Rocha by so-called &#8216;random chance&#8217;. They had a blast, and in 2011 decided to do a repeat. But this time, the trip evolved very, very differently – in an unexpected and astonishing way!</p>
