2008

Hello everyone!
 
rhapsolaughingTo say I feel blessed is an understatement! This month isn't even over and I'm already excited about all of the fun events I've been a part of and all the great resources and great stuff I've come across! So I'm passing the ABUNDANCE on to you!
 
In this month's newsletter please check out new info such as NEW video clips of my live performances! And mark your calendars for two great shows I will be a part of in the coming month!
 
I also just returned from the "I Got Soul" Conference in Dallas! Check out pics below and read my BLOG to hear about all of my
adventures and the wonderful artists I met like Yahzarah, Marva King, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Rahbi, Carmen Rodgers and so many more!
 
Oh! and because I've been out and about more lately I have LOTS to share with you in the Rhaps Tested, Rhaps Approved section! You know there is a NEW use for the "N" word?...and it's on a t-shirt! Or how about a great new CD "Asking for Richer Ground" that goes deeper than The Secret to get folks to believe in ABUNDANCE!
 
And finally a new episode of my podcast The Feel Good Flow featuring artists who sang their hearts out at the I got Soul Conference (including yours truly).
 
See?! Lots to check out! I'm feeling blessed so I'm pouring on the good stuff! 
 
Happy Reading!

THE NEW "N" WORD (Dallas,TX & Worldwide)
 
thenewnwordlogoWho likes new stuff? I do! I do! Especially when it's new stuff that takes the place of bad, negative and unprogressive stuff. Last year so much attention was drawn to one particular negative N word thenewnwordthat I thought we had run out of good N words! But not so! While at the I Got Soul Conference I came across a vendor's table who had decided to take matters into his own creative hands. Brian's new t-shirt line, The New N Word, features positive N words we all thenewnwordtshirtscan be happy to wear. Everyone is picking up on the trend including other artists such as Malcolm-Jamal Warner and I picked up my shirt too! I'll be sporting my new N word at an upcoming performance! You can get a head start on ordering yours by checking for the launch on the website. I usually wait until everything is set to go...but I like giving folks a head start on the good stuff! 
NEW CD: ASKING FOR RICHER GROUND
 
"A refreshing conversation that discusses what's necessary to cultivate a lifestyle that yields greater results. It will awaken your spirit to once again: desire, ask for, and more importantly, to know that it's okay to want and expect more from your life."
 
asking for richer groundWhen I first discovered this audiobook by author and speaker Pennie Murray, I had not yet been made aware of the "laws of attraction"...My concept of abundance at that time was based simply on the biblical verse "Ask and ye shall receive." But I admit, I didn't really know what went into the asking, and to be honest, many times I felt that I was totally undeserving of abundance. After listening to this CD not only was I prepared to ask for richer ground, I actually believed I could have it! (And I have...) It changed the way I perceived blessings and abundance. And so now i'm sharing it with you. I know there are a lot of books and CDs out there that offer similar concepts, and I encourage you to explore as many as you desire in the spirit of abundance and to add this one to your collection as well! I am constanly surprised by the number of people I meet who have given up on their dreams or who believe dreams are really unrealized fantasies. I encourage you to get this CD and get your hope, and belief in abundance back! ASK!
