Viva Andraya Carson!

Just a quick shout out to one of my favorite human beings, Andraya Carson! "Soul Coach" is a category that Reality will have to create for Andraya Carson.  Combining wisdom, humor, and uncanny intuition born out of her years of study and actual practice in multitudes of disciplines, Andraya is a Shift facilitator par excellence.  Her calm and complete acceptance of me (and herself), is a contagious miracle that I've experienced time and again, as have my friends, and my daughter as well.

Thank you so much for being who you ARE, Dray.  I look forward to the day when "Andraya Carson" is a household name!

Your eternal friend, Glenn

People Unlimited Documentary 4: Selling the Documentary

The point of making a documentary is to provide an audience with a chance to learn about something they weren’t aware of. Since most people aren’t aware of the possibilities of unlimited living or physical immortality, a documentary is the perfect vehicle to tell this complex and compelling story of People Unlimited. To make our point, we would need a documentary and an audience. As we accumulated massive amounts of video shot at People Unlimited events, we worked on a number of concepts for producing the documentary, but we were not gaining much ground on the distribution end. There was a clear need for help in that area, as well as some direction for the product.

When I met Doug Collins last fall, he offered to help us produce the documentary and to help us find an audience for it. That started a series of discussions that would considerably change the scope of the project and dramatically change the course of my life.

Doug’s first recommendation was to create a trailer for the documentary that would help him find people that would buy into the project and help us sell it to the world. We brought Jim and Bernie into the studio for an interview and built the trailer around that interview, combined with video clips from their expressions at the People Unlimited center.

Did we capture the essence of Jim and Bernie and their revolutionary concepts towards life? You’ll just have to see that for yourself. So here’s a link for the trailer:

And what about changing the course of my life? We’ll take that up next time.

Documenting the Documentary Part 3

In January, 2013, when the “Immortalizing the World“ movement started, plans were made to help train people to spread the word about physical immortality. One of those plans turned into Expansion Training, a communications class conducted by the renowned (and physically immortal) Laurie Handlers. Jim Strole took the class in the spring of 2013. During the final session, held on June 27th, the participants each spoke about their intentions they had set at the beginning of the class and the progress they had made towards achieving them.

After hearing what others in the class had to say about how they had fulfilled their intentions, Jim poured out his feelings on expansion – not just the expansion of physical immortality, but the expansion of all those around him as a result of this movement. It’s great to be alive.

Documenting the documentary of People Unlimited – Part II

This is the second post in a series on the creation of a video documentary on People Unlimited’s quest to immortalize the world.

In our last episode, I edited the expressions from the People Unlimited 2013 Summer Event down to 23 minutes of material that addressed immortalizing the world. I sent a link to the video, along with my notes on the clips selected, to Jim and Joe. What with vacations and so forth, it wasn’t until September 6 that we were able to meet and discuss our next steps.

For me, the meeting was exhilarating. I had a plan in mind of how I wanted to proceed and as we talked, Jim, Bernie and Joe were coming up with ideas that were a very close match to what I had envisioned. We had created a connection that had us thinking and acting as one body. Hmmmm. It was an effortless ride, where ideas popped up and were immediately understood and expanded.

One of Joe’s ideas was to treat the project like a rock and roll documentary, depicting Bernie and Jim more as rock stars than public speakers. I would shoot some interviews and backstage scenes to help put their expressions into the proper context. He cited the example of The Last Waltz, Martin Scorsese’s classic film of The Band’s final performance in 1976. I, of course, was thinking of This is Spinal Tap, Rob Reiner’s spoof on heavy metal “rockumentaries”. Okay, so we weren’t thinking exactly as one body right at that moment, but we were close.

So our plan of action was to start shooting the backstage scenes that very night (it was a Friday) and set up a time to shoot the interviews. I arrived at the People Unlimited Center early, screwed in my wide-angle lens to accommodate the confined space of the office and found myself lurking in the lobby like a freelance paparazzi , trolling for celebrities…

What I got that night probably won’t make the final cut, but I have included it here to illustrate how ideas can turn into reality in just a few hours. And the topic of discussion did find its way into the event that night. So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, for your viewing enjoyment I give you this:

Documenting the documentary of People Unlimited - Part I

Several months ago, Jim Strole and Joe Bardin invited me to a meeting to discuss the creation of a video documentary on People Unlimited’s quest to immortalize the world. This concept has been building momentum through the course of the year with dramatic results: events held in Israel, New York and Prescott, AZ have brought physical immortality to many new people around the world. Of course the idea appealed to me so we started planning. Through the course of 2013, Jim and Bernie had been refining their program for immortalizing the world. The summer event in July was shaping up as the culmination of the year’s work to that point. People would be coming to Scottsdale from Israel, the east coast and northern Arizona to attend, and there was also a powerful new feeling of warmth, compassion and intimacy that had been growing all year. We would be taping the entire event and I was sure that we would be capturing some great moments.

I wasn’t disappointed. At the conclusion of the event, I had roughly 30 hours of video to edit and among all that were some fantastic expressions. I put together a 23 minute segment comprised of Jim, Bernie and Joe’s expressions that dealt specifically with immortalizing the world. There are many more expressions by a variety of people who bring different perspectives to bear on the theme. But this segment will serve as the foundation for the documentary.

As we work on the documentary, I’m going to post the progress here on the blog, so people can see how this comes together. So step 1 in building a documentary is to assemble as much live-action material as possible and see how much of the story gets told with that alone. I’ve taken the 23 minute segment and cut it down to just under 16 minutes for this post. I hope you enjoy watching it and tell us what you think.

To the human brain, Me is We

When I read this article a friend sent me, it reminded me of my experience when I first met Charles Brown and Bernadeane in 1968. The study states “that the brain strains to sync with others and this increases the chance of our survival for ourselves and the group”. When I heard Chuck and Bernie speak I felt: they are me.  I had never heard anyone express themselves with such a passion for the human body, for the person, or for what they called, at that time, the flesh. It was very raw and vulnerable, I felt deeply touched in my soul by them. I felt I had some kind of biological shift in my body.

After that I could never get the feeling of them out of my body. I continued on with the routine of my life, but no matter what I was doing or achieving I could not feel a sense of fulfillment. Anytime I could, I tried to go to hear them.

Through a period of personal unfolding’s I began to realize that my true desire and destiny was to help them spread this great new feeling that they had in their bodies, about the flesh never dying, and a value of human life that I had never felt before.

Charles and Bernadane and I started working together, to spread this feeling around the world, this connection of forever-ness in our bodies. In our joining together we ignited an explosive passion in each other and we began to spread that passion everywhere we went.

I call this passion today a heart feeling for one another, which is stronger than the power of sickness, ageing and death.

Chuck and Bernie birthed this unstoppable feeling of flesh in me and now, through People Unlimited, we are out to birth that in who ever will receive our passion for them to live an unlimited life.

Last week before reading this article, I expressed at the People Unlimited event that not all your feelings and thoughts are entirely your own all the time, and that you have to be able to differentiate between what are really your thoughts and what are other people's. Sometimes you can wake up in the morning feeling sad and not be sure why. You are actually picking up transmissions from people who you are connected to you, who may be in a conflict.

After reading this article I saw even more deeply how we can become neurologically wired together as human beings and how important it is that our togetherness is not just about survival, but about a connection that propels us through any limitation. I think it demonstrates how important it is to be around people who send us neurological messages that promote and stimulate unlimited life in us.

When I experienced the biological connection with Bernie and Chuck, my outlook on life changed. It was as if the light was switched on. I felt a greater level of cognitive awareness, enabling me to live a life that I really wanted, not just a life that I was born into.

I would think that the more in sync we are with people that want us to live, and want nothing but joy and abundance for ourselves, the better we are.

What are your thoughts on this?

Sincerely,

Jim Strole

Is the body programmable?

IS THE BODY PROGRAMMABLE BY WORDS AND THOUGHT?

We want to share an article that one of our members sent to us stating, "Science proves that DNA can be reprogrammed by words and frequencies"

We have known and been talking about the power of the spoken word now for many years, understanding the effect it can have on the human body.  When we first started speaking about unlimited living and physical immortality, we could see the difference in people when we gave them our words of inspiration and told them they were unlimited. Over time we could actually witness the physical differences in these people, as they began to blossom and grow more alive and vibrant in our environment. We realized forty years ago how important an environment of unlimited and uncontrolled expression coming from the soul is.

Now this article states that the human DNA, throughout the entire body, is a biological internet and is far superior in many aspects to artificial internets. The article shows that the transference of energy through the power of words can penetrate through and around the world, connecting with other like minds and bodies. We believe this energy even transmits into the universe itself.

A cell phone or Internet transmission can pierce through walls and many other kinds of barriers. You can be sitting in some kind of enclosure and still get cell phone reception most of the time, but sometimes not because of the weakness of the frequency. The human word and energy frequency is a constant that is not weakened by distance or barriers, only by how receptive the person is to taking it in.

So think about this as you are going through your day, how powerful your words and your energy are and how they can transform you and the world.

Can you actually speak and think yourself into a physically immortal life?

Sincerely,

Bernie and Jim.

Christi Christiaens -- 100% in charge of my life

Before I was with People Unlimited, I was very negatively affected by the circumstances around me and would go into a depression. Now I am 100% in charge of my life. I’ve created a positive environment around me I can thrive in and I never experience depression anymore.

Before I met Jim, Chuck and Bernie, I lived in Belgium and was raising four kids. My marriage was dysfunctional and I was constantly looking for the next class, the next seminar, the next therapy to make me feel ok with my life, which really wasn’t ok.

Until the day that a friend of mine returned from America and told me that she met three people who said they were physical immortal and immediately I was overwhelmed with a stirring feeling in every cell of my body.

Next I went to an event with Jim, Chuck and Bernie in Munich Germany. They were so passionate and so real, totally giving of themselves to us, that I was deeply impacted.  It felt like all my cells were popping open. I knew I’d found what I was really all about. I was done with desperately looking for the next workshop or therapy to give sense to my life. Ten years later I moved to Scottsdale AZ where I am living a physical immortal life with people of my own kind.

Before I was with People Unlimited I had severe back pain and other health issues. Now I am healthy and pain-free. I went from living a life of desperation to living a meaningful and exciting life. I go through intense things sometimes, but the big difference is that I always come out better and stronger.

Physical immortality is a never-ending journey of joy, untouched by tragedy

I was feeling inspired recently about how people who live physical immortality are a people who know no tragedy.  In the story of the human race, tragedy is a constantly recurring theme.  Aristotle explored it thoroughly in his Poetics, along with the another very common theme, comedy.

I moved to Scottsdale, AZ, to be in and among the People Unlimited Community.  In 2 1/2 years, I have only missed a handful of events.  What I have felt is an inspiration, joy, connection, and a free-flowing moving of energy.  I have felt this before.  But consistently? No, this is a special place.  I have been a part of independent self-growth communities that surge and then fade over time, as egos do battle, and burdens overtake inspiration.  But here, I have seen Jim Strole, Bernadeane, and the community move through many challenges with joy.  There is a theme of deep connection, and deep intimacy, growing deeper over time.  When you have that, why would you even want to die?

On the facebook group, I recently posted this video.  It begins with a quote from Alan Harrington:

 "Death has become an imposition on the human race and is no longer acceptable".

Take 3 minutes and watch it.  This is why I am here.  This is why I must be around people who feel this way about life.

Joy is a recurring theme of physical immortality.  Joy and inspiration.

Also, comedy!  And giving to others.

Recently the charitable wing of People Unlimited, People Unlimited Charities, held a fundraiser event called Womanless Beauty Pageant.  Its the 4th annual one, and it was hilarious.  To be a guy and put on a show like this for a couple of hundred people really takes some balls.  This was not a "drag" show.  This was for fun.  This was to entertain, for guys to step out of the box and explore full out human expression, and it all went to charity.  You can read all about it here:  http://peopleunlimitedcharities.org/category/womanless-beauty-pageant/

Here is a clip:

This journey keeps getting better, it's a new model for living.  Fun, connection, freedom, and intimacy.  Self-selected, and coming together on regularly to face challenges together and spark the body toward limitless self-growth and evolution.  Only when growth stops does aging begin.  The human body never needs to age.  It just needs the right environment.  Its a joy to be here.

Responding to Physical Immortality is Amazing

I was one of many enjoying our People Unlimited event last evening when a speaker, a highly admired and respected member of our community, spoke out my name, looked at me in the eyes and said that he was thinking about me and he felt it was pretty amazing that I have responded to Physical Immortality.  In that moment a warm feeling of agreement, joy, and gratitude filled my body. Because it’s true, it is amazing that I responded to Physical Immortality. What? People never to experience death?  How absurd! What a bunch of foolish people! That’s how most people respond to Physical Immortality. However, when I laid down in bed that night ready to fall asleep I thought about this; what is MORE amazing than me responding to Physical Immortality is when people who come into our midst and begin to experience who we are as a people and as a new life but don’t respond to Physical Immortality. To me, THAT is what really amazes me. Since meeting Charles Brown, Jim Strole, and Bernadeane my life has totally changed and has been uplifted and enriched beyond words. Physical Immortality is not an idea, concept, religion, or belief system. Physical Immortality is a new way of life, a new way of feeling about your person and about others. Physical Immortality is about a higher quality of life. Now that I’ve experienced a deeper, richer way to live, there is no way that I could ever go back to the mundane, superficial way of existence that used to be my reality.  What I am referring to is the ordinary, normal way of life that is out there or what people refer to as “the way it is”.

It’s been over 10 years since I first met these people and I will tell you that without my good fortune to have met them I would never have experienced what I am now experiencing as a human being. I have always been a deep person, always wanting more in life and more with people. I’ve always had a hunger to experience life at its fullest but it just seemed in that world from which I came there was not a whole lot there, no true caring or feeling for one another, only the superficial ways of going thru the motions but with no real substance behind the mask. For example, how many times in your life have you felt you had something with another person but then one day you realize that person was gone. Either they’ve moved away or they have moved on to other things or to other people in their lives. The interaction with that other person stopped. What happened to what you had with that other person?

In the world from which I came, it is a world where people aren’t 100% real. It’s a world where there is a lot of guesswork that takes place because you have to figure out if people or situations that people create are real or not. I’ve entered a world, at my own choosing, where all of that has ended. I don’t have to guess anymore because everything is clean and clear. We do not hide anything from each other, nor do we have any secrets. Everything is put on the table. As a people we have an organic sense of integrity about ourselves that is truly remarkable. This frees us from the state of survival. We are direct and honest with each other. Sometimes we have to face things with each other but we do so in a way that is very direct and nourishing that leaves the other person feeling held and warm. We have a way with each other, no matter what the situation, where people feel lifted by each other. There is a genuine feeling that we have with each other that is real. And because of the feeling and integrity that we have with each other there is a “rest in the body” so the person can really live. People in this world do not get to experience this level of human interaction on an every moment, on-going basis.

We have people from all over the world that have embraced this new life because they all hungered for something new, something fresh, something totally clean, and something totally nourishing so that the body can really thrive and can really live with joy.

Living free of mental control

Living free of mental control is a wonderful thing. The only people I have ever experienced this with are immortal. Most human beings are like ticking time-bombs. They walk around their whole lives with the unconscious knowledge that some day they are going to die. People don’t think about that much and often will dismiss you or even fight you when you try to enlighten them to their state of being, but that does not change the fact that the body feels the weight of the sentence of death every day it is alive and dulls the senses to prepare for loss of all kinds. Living with the belief system of death is very suppressive of aliveness and joy, but since most people have never known anything else it’s just accepted as the norm. No-one has really lifted the veil to explore what a human body without that limitation would be like, until now. We are the people doing this, literally going where no-one has ever been before. There are innate creative powers of the human body when freed from the daily reality of living with a death sentence and the inevitable fears that arise from that. When the body can function from somewhere more vast and inclusive than just the programmed human mind, there is a change that takes place that produces great clarity and focus of thought, feeling and action. First you have to be delivered from the mental prison. That requires a human touch from someone who has crossed over the death barrier and is moving free themselves. I wish I could convey to you the glorious rest that you will experience in your nervous system when an immortal penetrates to your soul and lifts your burden… the possibilities you will glimpse and the new hungers that will begin to squirm inside you. If I could just open a door for you right now to another world, would your natural sense of adventure and curiosity that maybe you remember from your childhood take over? Would you run through eager to explore, or would you dismiss immortality as stupid and close the door behind you?

Immortal bodies are nothing short of treasures. People that are willing to face everything and be vulnerable and intimate with themselves and others are sacred to me. People that go beyond a self-centered life to reach out and take others with them to greater heights are simply precious. They are the life-blood of this planet. Once you have tasted the sweetness and illumination of the virtue that pours from an immortal body, you are never the same. It is the genius of immortals that has realized that human nourishment is the missing ingredient and the key to living abundantly forever. Without it a person slowly or quickly dries out, shrivels up and eventually blows away.

Propelling Force for Physical Immortality

I am a propelling force for physical immortality in this world. I’m telling you this because the question was posed last weekend at our monthly event at People Unlimited. Everyone is propelling something in their lives whether consciously or not, so it’s a great question to answer. I am happy to be a propelling force for physical immortality and a new species in this world. I refuse to promote death. I love to be alive and I love the feeling of wanting others alive, therefore I have chosen to be a propelling force for our aliveness, for our physical immortality.

Sounds too simple, doesn’t it? Well, it is simple – simply wonderful – but I can tell you it takes true greatness to really live it. It requires a fluid state of being without control to be successful at being a propelling force for physical immortality. It takes openness and letting go - of the ego and all its measurements and selfish needs. You have to go big – bigger than yourself, bigger than your family, your peer-group, your race, your country. You have to stretch out and see way beyond what you have known, beyond any kind of lack or poverty of being. How do you do this, you might ask? There is no formula - but it all comes from being with other people. You have to be willing to open the self and let down the barriers. No one person can contain all there is – the wisdom comes from seeing the world through other people’s eyes and senses as well as your own. The only thing that matters is who you give yourself to, who you choose to align yourself with. If you think you can escape this by keeping to yourself, consider that not making a conscious choice for your life simply puts you in alignment by default with the death cult of billions of unconscious people following each other to the gas chambers without questioning whether escape is a possibility.

Physical immortality is a high state of being - an adventure worth jumping into. I’m excited that I searched out the best propelling force in this world to get behind. I am proud to be physically immortal. I am thrilled that I have purpose and meaning to my life and that I want to be more every day, not less. If I am not a propelling force for greatness, then what? Aging? Deterioration? Depression? Not for me – and contrary to what many people think, surrendering my separate ego in favor of the diversity of the whole has actually given me a more defining sense of self than I ever had – I have discovered more about who I really am and my individual gifts and contribution than ever before.

P.S. The weekend event was a thrilling and stirring time as always – great being with my people, having fun, going deep with living and giving to our actions to promote physical immortality and togetherness in this world that so badly needs real answers.

Samantha Orozco - The confidence to change

Through my involvement with People Unlimited, I’ve become the joyful, confident person I was born to be. I feel passion for my life and the life of others. I came to Scottsdale, Arizona 7 years ago. I was a professional person from Venezuela, a hydrology engineer. I’m a strong person, but certain experiences had traumatized me and left me with fear and insecurities.

After hearing Bernadeane, Jim Strole and Charles Brown, of People Unlimited, speak on physical immortality and attending People Unlimited events in Scottsdale, I felt in my body, "This is the life I want."

My movement involved large and profound changes, including a new culture, language, and customs. But I have continued to change and grow since then. Change is not a one-time thing; this is a day to day movement. I do not know what life will bring me tomorrow, but what I do know is that I am ready and confident in myself.

I am very grateful to Bernie, Jim and Chuck, for their clarity, passion, sweetness, inspiration and life movement. I am grateful also to all the people and for the life we are building together.

Diana Owens - Fulfilling my vision of transformation

Since connecting with People Unlimited, I have learned how to be intimate with myself, my partner, and others. I have faced judgments, criticism and low self esteem about myself and recognized all of this as irrelevant and small, and no longer let it block me from fulfilling the vision I have of myself to be a peacemaker, transforming the world through spreading love to others. I am 68 years on this planet and have spent my whole life seeking and finding growth. My career as a clinical psychotherapist, success coach and tantra facilitator has been a huge benefit to me. Everything I learned about healing others, I have been able to give to myself. Still, I have not been satisfied...I sought more. I always judged my dissatisfaction with myself and my life as a neurosis.

Through the experience and influence of Jim Strole, Bernadeane and People Unlimited, I am recognizing that my seeking is the drive of my flesh to find my greatness and to live forever. I am falling in love with my life as never before.

I have had a vision of transformation through love since I was in college. Now, through the support that my people have for me and the belief they have in my greatness, I am rising in energy and creativity and manifesting a more lucrative and fulfilling counseling practice. This includes not only counseling and psychotherapy, but my passion for yoga and dance and success coaching.

I have always been interested in health. But now, I have increased my knowledge and practice of healthy habits of living. I not only feel better physically and emotionally, I have more energy, a brighter outlook on life, and am happier.

My relationship with my partner is much happier. We are each taking full responsibility for the happiness we are creating in our relationship. We are no longer blaming each other. We are communicating more clearly and openly and we are less dependent on each other. We are focused on building each other in every way. Our forever life gives us the perspective of wanting the best for each other as well as for ourselves.

I have more energy, enthusiasm, and love of living than ever before. I have a vision of transformation for myself and the world that I am passionate about and can see happening. This vision includes physically immortalizing the world. My partner and I have a community of people that we love and that love and support us in being the greatest we can be and the happiest. I feel grateful and am looking forward to our forever life together, transforming the world through being all that we can be.

Cheryl Piatelli - Opening up to life

I am so NOT shut down any more! And the feeling is exhilarating. I allow the feelings of joy and worth to flow in my body now. I care more for people in a way that is less self-serving. And I have a deep desire to have as many people as possible experience a new way of being. I love being part of a movement that can truly make a difference. Before People Unlimited, I had stopped dreaming. I had plenty of friends and I had a career I loved. But there was an emptiness in me that said "Is this all there is?"

So in 2009 I decided to change my life. I sold 3/4 of my possessions, including my baby grand piano and took a train from Boston to Phoenix. I went to People Unlimited meetings and started to see a different way for myself.

I never liked groups even though I belonged to many. It seemed a necessary evil because I wanted to be with people, but most groups just magnified people's issues. But with People Unlimited I experienced what being cared for without conditions really felt like. It is freeing to the body. And there is an energy that gets created when people want each other to live. The feeling of being unstoppable starts to drown out the old negative messages that tell you you can’t have the life that you want.

Most of us grew up learning we have limitations and they stop us from creating what our hearts truly want. And the process of "shutting down" only gets deeper the longer we are here. Well I have reversed that process.

I have tried things I never thought I'd try: Like going beyond the pettiness with my family to heal those relationships. Like participating in a fitness contest for women over 60. Like expressing my physical immortality to my friends and accepting they might think I'm crazy.

Feeling so loved and appreciated is at the core of my transformation. I know I was loved and am loved by many people, but it seemed like there was something wrong in feeling my own specialness and uniqueness; something wrong in thinking that my presence here on this planet is important and needed. Maybe that was my Catholic upbringing. Now I know that only from that place of deserving can we be truly present for others.

Audrey Archer - Going for the more of my life

Since being involved with People Unlimited my life has totally opened up; I have opened up. I now enjoy very deep connections with people, which are nurturing, fun and intense. We constantly spur each other on to go for and enjoy what we are truly capable of, which is so much. I have been able to continuously improve myself over the past 23 years. I spent the first 17 years of my life growing up in a very small house in a village outside of Greater Manchester in the North of England. My family environment was suppressed in the sense that very little emotion of any kind was ever expressed and there was never much physical affection. Both my parents had experienced serious childhood trauma. I was excellent in school, and at the age of nine I was taken to London to test my IQ and was classified as a Gifted Child.

I put a lot of energy into my schoolwork whilst also deriving much pleasure playing piano, taking dance lessons and performing in a couple of theatre shows by the age of 13. I won a scholarship to an all girls private school. But then my parents divorced and I felt very alone, wanting to be strong for others, but getting basically zero emotional support or human touch in a very difficult time.

I gradually slipped into depression, which ran in my family. My father introduced me to Bernie, Chuck and Jim. I first heard them speak about physical immortality in Glastonbury. I still remember approaching the meeting room and hearing a woman’s voice expressing loudly and with a vehemence that I didn’t understand. Later I realized she had a huge passion for living--now that's something to shout about!

I felt welcome immediately, and loved the opportunity to express my feelings fully. I could tell these people genuinely cared. Their desire to create a new way of living based on a deeper level of human interaction excited me. I knew then I wanted to be part of the creation of this new life.

Moving to the US (and the desert) at age 20 was an intense and huge move. I was able to step out in this way because I felt in my body a new unlimited life and a connection with the people who had stirred this in me. I was a quiet, shy young woman. But with People Unlimited gatherings twice a week, I had the forum to expand. I now experience being in the best shape of my life both physically and emotionally. I have more stamina than ever before because I'm building my body FOREVER!! Negativity can no longer get a foothold in my heart or mind. I experience joy and laughter every day. I express my passion in many areas of my life. I now sing and play keyboard with two different bands, which I really love. I am a hair designer and the owner of an Aveda Salon, which I helped to design.

My life is harmonious, loving and fun....and there's always more...

Thank you Bernie, Jim and Chuck for venturing to England to find me. I love you and am with you forever.

Glenn Bourdot - Hard Times Are Over

I used to take my troubles to heartWaiting for my world just to fall apart I didn’t have the time of day to dance the Bossa Nova Then my buddy told me Hard Times Are Over I had this deep dark lack inside of me I blamed it on the bad economy Hey everybody’s got a shadow mister, I’ll tell you mine Big as Frankenstein (big ass - Frankenstein) I tried and tried to justify Pain was real and joy was no ride I rode the back seat, shame was my chauffeur Now my hand’s on the wheel and the Hard Times Are Over (instrumental)

I tried and tried to justify Life fades away by and by I’ve got no death wish, but I’m a smoker Cause my soul’s on fire and the Hard Times Are Over I couldn’t do this all by myself It takes a lot of big help, so hold on to me Inspire this fire in me I’ll set your body free We’ve got a lover’s feast In this belly of the beast Now you can take it from me, sister, or the man in the moon We’ve all got to learn to laugh too soon We don’t need serious struggling and talking forever We’ve got to drop it now or never All this back-stabbing, booty-grabbing, graveyard pipeline Playing a bit-part in a dead bloodline I’m rolling through it like a Mack bulldozer It’s a brand new day and the Hard Times Are Over Yes, I can feel forever and the Hard Times Are Over

Patrick Van Nuffelen - Feeling whole and one with myself

Life is movement! I love my body now, since getting involved with People Unlimited, because I feel whole and one with myself. I am almost constantly looking for ways to change former abusive patterns into adoring actions, changing mortal behavior into an immortal life. I believe in myself. I create what I go for. But I wasn’t like this when I first met Bernie, Chuck and Jim and People Unlimited. I had so much fear in my life. I was scared of what people would think of me if I didn’t behave the way they wanted me to. Money was another thing I was scared of. I told myself I didn’t need it or want it.

I was impairing myself in so many ways. I had family and friends, but nobody stirred me to make real changes. Also, I was stubborn and thought I knew better than everyone else. Now I am able to listen to people in my life who want the best for me.

I’m focusing on making money because I want heaps of it. I’m using it to care of myself and others and to feel good. Before, my body was not important to me. But now I love myself because I know my body is me. I’m making my life bigger, and it feels good to grow in this way. I’m no longer fighting what is best for me. What a change! I couldn’t have done it without people who continuously remind me that I’m unlimited.

Jodi Selko - Liberated from the relationship trap

The last years of my life, being a part of People Unlimited, have been the happiest and most joyful of my life! Wow, it is hard to write in words all that I have experienced since being with this amazing group of people! I realize I don't have to continue to just seek out that "one" special person in my life to share life with! I know I have many people that I can share intimate feelings, depth and daily adventures with, along with my wonderful family! Before I become a member of People Unlimited and a physically immortal body, I had a lot of ups and downs in life. Though my life was also blessed with a wonderful childhood, family, friends and wonderful jobs, I had many years of being in love with people who were not fully available to share life and love with me. I stayed stuck in this sadness and heartache off and on for many years.

Once I broke free of an unhealthy and tumultuous relationship of 7 years and fully opened myself up to experience the community of People Unlimited, my life immediately began to shift. I finally found the depth of connection and nurturing I wanted!

For the first time in my life, since I can remember, I no longer have this feeling of "I am alone" lingering in my mind and making me sad. I have so many beautiful, wonderful, deep and nurturing people to share life with! It fills me with a joy I have never imagined or experienced!

I am transforming myself moment by moment to a whole new way of thinking, feeling and living without limits, and I am connecting deeper and deeper to people that want to share life with me forever! And I am impacting people in my life everywhere, every day. Because each person has so much value to me now, I want to give them my attention and feeling of how important they are in this world!

Ilana Arzt - The strength to succeed

After years of failing relationships, I've joyfully created an intimate living and love life that is complimentary and enjoyable to me. I’ve built a very successful personal training business called Enerjoy Fitness, and I was even able to open my own fitness studio two years ago. This is something I know I would not have had the strength to do without People Unlimited. Since I've been with People Unlimited all aspects of my life have improved dramatically. It is so empowering and life-giving to be surrounded by people who really don't want you to be suppressed in any way. I lived in Israel until the age of 30. I had a good life till then, but as I matured, I felt something missing in my life. This was true, even though I experienced a lot of success, including being the Aerobics Champion of Israel. At age 27, when I met Charles Brown, Bernadeane and Jim Strole in an event on physical immortality, I realized that they were the component I was missing. I knew they were forming the environment of people that would allow me to be free to be who I really am: a physically immortal person.

I realized I was not born to die, but needed the support of human beings in order to thrive and renew myself without end in a life that did not include death. So I moved to Scottsdale AZ to participate in People Unlimited -- my life has been transforming ever since. Now I experience a freedom of living and expression I could never imagine was possible. Even in difficult times, I’ve managed to move through them quickly and come out better because I have people around me who really want me to succeed and have my heart’s desires.

Being in this environment has brought me closer to people and I’ve developed the capacity to relate to many different kinds of people. All my relationships with my family members have improved and I'm able to be around them with total ease. My health has never been better. Wow, what a great way to live!
