AORN of Middle Tennessee is a chapter of a national
organization of nurses who specialize in caring for patients post-surgery.
REBOOT Combat Recovery seeks to rehabilitate soldiers who have been traumatized
by combat. Together, the two organizations captured the hearts of those in
attendance.
The first annual fundraising gala was held at The Rosewall
in Nashville, TN. The dining room was decorated with classic black tablecloths
and unique centerpieces of rustic lanterns with moss and red floating candles
in glass bowls, which cast a warm glow throughout the room. Cory Curtis, sports
news personality of WKRN channel 2, hosted the night as the emcee. 
To begin the evening, guests sipped Alamos Wine and
cocktails as they perused the assortment of silent auction items, including an
autographed Eli Manning jersey, Blake Shelton concert tickets, fitness club
memberships, wine country getaways, Florida Georgia Line and Thompson Square
autographed guitars, autographed Taylor Swift album cover, vintage photographs
of Marilyn Monroe and KeithRichards with Mick Jagger, and many other special
items and experiences.
Dinner was composed of delicious, classic American fare: savory
prime sirloin and chicken picatta, fluffy whipped potatoes and tender parmesan
brussel sprouts. Gigi’s Cupcakes provided custom mini-cupcakes for dessert,
decorated with camo icing to celebrate Veterans Day.
After everyone ate their fill, the leaders of AORN and
REBOOT thanked guests for attending and expressed their excitement for the
evening’s program.

Both organizations shared their passion for their missions,
the contribution each makes to the community and their desire to come together
to honor one another. AORN welcomed board members to express their gratitude
and explain the role of a periOperative nurse while REBOOT gave the stage to a
soldier who has been transformed by the work of the organization.
Following dinner, guests listened to star-studded acoustic
sets from three-time Grammy award-winning blues musician Keb’ Mo’, and country
music artists Tim Rushlow and Larry Stewart joined by guest fiddle player
Donnie Reis. The trio concluded the evening with a moving rendition of “God
Bless the USA,” that led to a collective crowd sing-along and standing ovation.
LEGACY was honored to work with these two organizations to
honor these heroes. Their work does not go unnoticed.

Remember the movie Avatar?
ReplyDeleteWhere all those blue people were connected by an
“energy”?
They were able to communicate with plants and
animals?
Well, that is not just a fantasy.
It turns out that kind of “energy” is real.
Deepak Chopra wrote about a study, where scientists
saw monkeys dipping potatoes in saltwater before
eating it.
Then they saw the rest of the tribe doing it.
Pretty logical so far right?
But get this: Monkeys in different parts of the WORLD
started dipping potatoes in salt water.
There was no way they could have communicated
with each other.
The only explanation was that they communicated
through an invisible, “intelligent energy.”
The Japanese call this energy “Ki”.
It stands for “Life Force”
In fact, a man named Mikao Usui developed a
SYSTEM of healing called Reiki.
And this system of healing uses this intelligent energy
to heal people.
It is one of the most ancient, profound and
POWERFUL healing arts in the world.
Reiki masters can HEAL just by touching someone
with their hands.
They can also heal people REMOTELY using their
intention.
It’s amazing.
It USED to take YEARS and THOUSANDS of dollars
to become a Reiki master.
But this guy named Owen Coleman discovered how
to attain these healing powers rapidly.
Even in as little as 48 hours.
According to him he already had this power, but
don’t realize it. And that’s we don’t have to spend too
much time learning it.
We just need to recognize it and release it.
[Check out his presentation on Reiki here.]
Alright, till next time.
Yours Truly,
Mr Ana
P.S. - Owen is offering a special training that
won't be around forever.
He's planning on releasing his training methods on
a large scale.
But for now, it is invitation only.
So, if I were you, I'd take advantage of that as well.
Look forward to hearing from you!
