Workshops and Retreats
Together, Audri Scott Williams and Karen Hunter Watson, perhaps the first women to lead a global walk for
peace, combine the grace of original music and words from the heart to touch the lives of those who have the opportunity to
experience their presence. According to Audri, “We have journeyed around the world for peace and healing; now we begin
an even deeper journey into the hearts of humanity. Never before has so much depended on our mutual commitment to “showing
up” to affect a shift from separation consciousness to a consciousness built upon cooperation, love and truth.”
Karen adds, “There is a Divine orchestration
going on and as we come to this awareness many lives will be transformed by Grace and a loving Creator. Now is the time.”
Audri Scott Williams and Karen Hunter Watson are the
founding directors of the Quantum Leap Transformational Center (QLTC). The mission of the QLTC
is to expand the outer limits of the human experience.
Wow! I had no idea how much rest I needed following the 13 Moon Walk for Peace. It is so interesting to observe myself
wanting to push, while my body says "No, No, No!". How many of us get on the perpetual wheel of motion (for all
good reasons) and when our body, mind and spirit say enough is enough, continue to push forward anyway? Well, for once I recognized
my need to let go and give myself the time I need to balance, heal and intergrate all of the expeirences from the walk. Usually
I push forward through it all only to hit a "brick wall" and then be forced to take time to heal and restore.
I
urge all of my "driven" partners in peace to remember to take the time you need to take care of your body, mind
and spirit. You are needed here at this critical time -- not on the other side. Let us prepare to go the distance, we are
too valuable to the future of the world.
Leonard Peltier has been moved from USP-Lewisburg. At this time, he is at the Federal
Transfer Center (FTC) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This is an administrative and "holdover" facility. That means
he will be held in Oklahoma temporarily -- although "temporarily" could mean months -- after which he will be
transferred to another facility.
Please continue your efforts on Leonard's behalf. Keep calling the White House
-- 202-456-1111. Obama must free Leonard Peltier.
Keep demandng a transfer for Leonard that is within 500 miles
of his home. Tell the Federal Bureau of Prisons that the only acceptable transfer is one to a medium security facility in
close proximity to his family and Nation.

We have been made aware of Leonard being pulled from general
population and placed in solitary confinement at Lewisburg, PA,
where he is currently incarcerated. We are very concerned for him because of his health
challenges and his age.
Leonard Peltier, American Indian rights activist Leonard Peltier (born
1944) was convicted in the shooting deaths of two Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents
at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Leonard was injustly imprisoned for
a crime he did not commit for over 36 years. His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Desmond Tutu,
and Nelson Mandela are among those who have called for his release. Amnesty International calls Leonard
a political prisoner who represents how our country has mistreated indigenous peoples for
centuries and continues to do so.
Dorothy Ninham,Director of Leonard Peltier’s Defense team has
released a statement on his behalf, We are asking you to join us in expressing our concern to the
Director of The Federal Bureau of Prisons, Mr. Harley Lappin. The following is the phone number
