PS to the 31-Day Challenge16:46
This "P.S." video is a fun bonus to the course! It offers a quick recap of all 31 lessons -- everything you have learned and experienced in the course, while giving you additional insights and bonuses straight from the instructor: me, Barb Shelton!
Do you know -- can you think of -- someone who would enjoy this course? If so, this 16-minute video is a GREAT introduction to it! It covers all 31 days of the challenge and gives a good, short-but-sweet synopsis of everything covered in the course!
Also, if you know a few gals who would enjoy going through this course with me, one on one, in a Facebook group, I would LOOOOOVE to do this with you!!! And at NO extra charge! You'll get personal input from me, Facebook Lives, bonuses, and more! We'd just need 5 gals who would want to do this! Message me at "Barb Edtl Shelton" on Facebook, and we'll get your own private group set up and going!
By the way, ALL of the resources mentioned in this video are available throughout the course, in the sections they are mentioned in.
But there is ONE thing I mentioned that I said I would give you the link to, and that's my YouTube video on how to make a 3"x3" mini-book. The link is in the Resources.

(Disclaimer from Barb: There is an odd little reflection that appears alllllllll through the video, most often on my face. That was/is not visible in my editing program! So I have NO idea where it came from! The only way to get rid of it would be to totally re-record the video and then re-edit it -- which would take many hours -- hours I simply do not have. So I can only ask -- beg -- that you find a way to disregard and forgive its irritating appearance in the video!)

Requirements

Absolutely NO pre-requisites! Just come as you are!
Okay, maybe there's ONE: Come with a heart to learn and grow and be blessed.

Description

In this 31-day challenge course, you'll be introduced to - and will actually DO - something new and different each day in one of several areas: enhancing your creativity, healing your heart, cultivating gratefulness, nurturing your own heart and others' too, plowing past hurdles, halting procrastination, and organizing something that's been in a nagging state of disorder!

So this is not just one area, but many life-enriching, possibly even life-changing ones!

On each of the 31 days, there are things to read and/or watch and/or process or do in your own life, home, and relationships! You will get to the end of this course with your creativity stretched, your mind sharpened, and relationships sweetened! You'll easily add to your skills repertoire, and enhance your environment!

You will:

try things you never even thought of, and maybe never thought you could do!
do a fun and simple “before and after,”
create a place to store all the recipes you've gathered,
increase your conversational skills and connect more deeply with people,
go back and thank someone who has contributed to and blessed your life,
tackle a task or project that has felt overwhelming,
do a few things to bless others in fun, easy, unique, creative ways,
get tools to deal with and overcome some anxieties and hurdles,
organize a few things in your life, little and big,
and have more PEACE!

You’ll receive a plethora of printables created to help you actually DO and implement these creative ideas and projects!

Barb is a master at bringing people along, one step at a time, and making it easy, fun and doable!

By the end of the 31 lessons, you will have learned and tried many new skills in a variety of areas, and will have accomplished things you've been putting off!

The timing of this is totally flexible! You can do it in 31 days - most of the activities are not time-consuming - or you can stretch it out to 2 months, 4 months, or more, if you prefer to go at a slower pace.

You can also do this on your own, or you can gather a few friends and do it with them!

Who this course is for:

for those who are stuck in a rut, coming up against walls, in need of some new sparks and sparkles in their mind and heart!
for those who want to create a larger Comfort Zone that they're comfortable in and enjoy
for those wanting to increase their tools for dealing with pesky-to-difficult areas of their lives
for those who'd like to try some new things but would enjoy having clear, easy help doing so
