JAMES ALLEN- THE WAY OF PEACE. Cash in on meditation.
 
Many people are familiar with James Allen and his work, AS A MAN THINKETH, but he wrote a lot of stuff. I have a copy of THE WAY OF PEACE, a book on Meditation. Interesting thing about the "book", an 8.5 X 11" 38 page book with a cover, a glued spine. NO copyright. In fact, no publisher.

If you know how to read the CPSIA info, you can find out where and when it was published. Anyhow...

It his work on meditation.

So, here is a story in the HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/fe...nxiety-1127792

About the new age of anxiety, and in the article is a blurb about Tal Rabinowitz, a former NBC staffer, who left the industry and opened a place to meditate.

It looks like she has a hit.

Here are a few articles, not much needed, some space, could probably get started in a church basement or empty storefront.

The above link on how to start a meditation biz with LLC,

Another story on UNPLUG:

Then, the FRANCHISE:

Heck, you could use the public domain The Way of Peace as a course.

With anxiety on the rise, unlike ever before (what could it be??)...maybe you peaceful souls might want to help others to destress and why not cash in while doing it?

Cheaper than a trip to BALI, (although mine might have a Bali theme, if Dien will send me a few grains of sand, ha!)

Take a deep breath, and relax.

Nice scenarios, guess this thing went really widespread back in the 60' with the Beatles and hippies. Combined with Dien's ideas about business in Bali this should be a good combo :)

WE children of the 60's may have embraced some of the ideas, but today, the Millenialls, especially at the upper end 35ish, are STRESSED out. Many over student loan debt they have been paying on for years.

I remember when David Letterman had his heart surgery, then during his recovery embraced meditation. As did many of the people of the 90s, and into the 21st century.

What I like about the idea, is you need a room. Get a room (as the saying goes) and you can do a lot with it.

In fact I'm meeting with one of the guys with a room for lease, to see what restrictions he has, or if he'd prefer a JV. I know I could get him 50% more from his lease, IF he pieces and parcels it out.

A room with a nice hardwood floor, can serve a lot of purposes, bring your own mat for meditation, yoga, exercise, no equip pilates, dance, add a few mats for judo, karate, self-defense, a few tables for knitting, jewelry making...

An empty room has a lot of potential, especially if it is shared.
