Description: Tradition and modernity from the Romanesque to today.

In 1755 Maria Theresa commissioned the conversion of the Gothic Hofburg into a monumental late baroque residence, which was completed by Constantine in 1770. The former imperial state rooms have largely been preserved in their original state with frescoes, wall paintings, pictures and furniture from different eras. The giant hall is considered to be the most splendid festival and ceremonial hall in the Alpine region.

The Imperial Hofburg is currently undergoing a careful renovation and revitalization of the entire Hofburg as well as the construction of the entrance area to the museum. For this it has already received the “Golden Wheelchair” award and has been nominated for the State Prize for Revitalization. The Burghauptmannschaft Österreich was ultimately unable to rank among the award winners because this award is not awarded to state-owned companies. The work should be completed by the beginning of May 2010.

By exposing filled-in areas, e.g. Along the Romanesque city wall, connecting corridors between the entrance areas in Hofgasse and that in Herrengasse were created in today’s basement. This corridor also connects the baroque cellar with the Gothic cellar. Both can now serve as special event areas, but also as an extension of the museum.

Three passage rooms (guard room, giant room, Lorraine room) create a stylish rococo ambience for events. The Gothic hall in the basement offers a unique space connection through its cross-ridge vault with exposed brickwork. The connection of historical building fabric with modern infrastructure enables a gentle, responsible use of the building.

Perhaps you are wondering: “What is personal autonomy?”

Simply put, empowerment is freeing itself from the limits or life miserable and full responsibility for everything in your life to take. This should stop making excuses for things not going well in your life and do something about changing them! Choices, choices you make every day in every aspect of your life. It is being put in charge of what they allow in their lives, which is related to what you read, what you see on TV and in movies, with their mentor, what music you listen to, what you eat, etc. Why did the election is very important to allow … Your choice of literally.

General definition: empowerment is a process that helps people get control over their own lives.

Therefore, training is about learning there are many options you have the right to be happy and healthy today. The past is past and can not be changed, because the focus is on what you can do at this time. You can make the choice to have the power now. When you use your options and responsibilities and take action, you will gain control over their lives. I have a million reasons for everything that is terrible in my life. I blame my addiction even cigarettes, drugs and alcohol to others. I blame everyone for everything, for allowing me to justify in my mind that’s fine. I was slowly killing me to not face the problem that caused my accuracy problem for the decisions I make. It is a vicious circle, but empowerment can change!

This is a small list, but as you can see the list describe the qualities that can not be outside of ourselves as empowerment comes from within. I’m looking outside myself. That is where I went wrong and that millions of people is also wrong. When you activate this power within us to have the strength and courage to make decisions and act on important issues that define us as. These problems may be associated with any and all areas of our lives – relationships, finances, personal, spiritual and physical. It is very important to understand that empowerment is a multidimensional process that covers all levels of our being: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual, and must each region for the balance.

You can enable the process to facilitate and support through external sources, such as using the help of someone skilled in the life of training, learning the techniques of energy healing and mind, self-help groups attending seminars, courses at home, reading books, etc. This is very important to teach you the program and information about how to do things independently of his own after you complete the program. Without seeking independence in the system of co-dependency, and that empowerment is a process that develops as we work through. It is impossible to get into the empowerment of life waiting for a change. This should be the road, travel, lifestyle or way of life for complete freedom from all pain and suffering.

I “attract wealth” from the real life story. I learned to overcome poverty, addiction and abuse to create the world when they think it is quite impossible for me to have. I am also a possibility, because I dare to believe, and I just heard, with power in! I guess what I’ve done since I learned the secrets of self-mastery and empowerment? I am now a successful entrepreneur, published author, an international life coach, energy healer and specialized training. Not bad for a while is “high school dropout, sexual and physical abuse, drug addicts, alcoholics cases, well-being”, huh? That’s what enabled! He made decisions that improve the quality of your life.

With empowerment comes wisdom and the wisdom I do not mean knowledge of the facts and the ability to feel and understand the facts and the judge acted properly in-depth and in all matters relating to the world. Wisdom is the power to understand the truth, and the ability to make the best knowledge of the truth.

With balance comes wisdom, and power to think, to control and guide their thoughts, and the difficulties that arise from avoiding wrong thinking. With the wisdom that you will be able to choose the right program for your particular needs and guided by all means get the best results.

The beauty of empowering the domino effect. Through personal empowerment is the means through good teaching example for those around you to empower themselves as well! Not only did they managed to transform himself, but also help change the lives of the child’s family, and friends. You have the ability to break the chains of poverty, drug abuse, and suffering in their own families. You can show them the place before they have the power they can gain control over your entire life to improve the situation by accepting full responsibility and act on their own mastery. It will show what can be done, because you are! A good example and their children learn and repeat what they teach. Guidelines for empowerment.
