Public Zoom Course: "The Heart of the Principles in Relationships"
Join me in a newly created six-session Zoom course.
My wife Coizie and I just celebrated being married for 52 years. And we came across Sydney Banks and the Three Principles 35 years ago. Understanding the Principles has opened our hearts to greater and greater degrees of love and compassion in our relationships.
In this course I would like to share with you the lessons that I have learned that have made a profound difference in my relationships and that I know could make a big difference in your relationships as well.
The Principles are where the psychological and the spiritual meet. Deeper insight into the Principles leads to more love and healthier relationships. This course will cover:
1) The normalcy of low moods
2) How not to take personally another person’s low moods
3) Having important talks when we are at our best
4) Learning to see a person’s soul and heart, their innate well-being
5) Understanding emotional reactions and becoming resilient
6) Forgiveness
7) Less focus on our egos and more focus on kindness and what is best for everyone
Deep listening
9) The importance of being open to spiritual wisdom when looking for answers to problems or differences. Remaining open to new and fresh thinking
10) Intimacy and sex
11) Unconditional love, having an open heart
Join Dr. Dicken Bettinger for six 1 ½ hour Zoom sessions. Recordings of each session will be sent to participants following each session.
Dates/times: Tuesdays October 12, 19, 26, November 2, 9, 16 from 11am-12:30pm Pacific, 2pm-3:30pm Eastern, 7pm-8:30pm UK. ( Please check for daylight savings time changes. )

October 2019- April, 2020 Announcing a 7 month Advanced 3 Principles Program:
“Healing the World: Coming Home to the Heart of the Principles” with
Dr. Dicken Bettinger
Program Description:
Sydney Banks asserted that all true change is spiritual change. He said that the only way the world truly changes is when each of us goes “inside” and raises our level of consciousness, thereby helping to raise the overall level of consciousness in the world. In this program you will discover through your own experience and realizations how a shift in your level of consciousness brings more love and understanding into the world. Each and every one of us can help heal the world of its suffering, greed, and violence. You do not have to be someone special or do something extraordinary. You do not have to become a 3P teacher or coach. Your only qualification for being a spiritual change agent in the world is to be a human being willing to surrender into the heart of the Principles.
Who is This Program For:
Dr. Bettinger’s program is open to 1 individuals whose insights into the 3 Principles as revealed by Sydney Banks have brought more overall well being into their lives, and are now interested in helping to heal the world.
Program Objectives:

1 - Go beyond the limits of your personal thinking to a space inside where you are
free of the limitations, judgments, and distortions of your conceptual mind.
2 - Learn that when you touch this space you will discover that you are uplifted in feeling
and gain higher quality thinking.
3 – Gain a greater trust in allowing wisdom to effortlessly guide your life.
4 - Discover an unconditional love for everyone.
5 - Live with a contagious joy for life.
6 – Find out first hand what it means to bring more love and understanding into the world,
and why this helps to heal the world.
