Odyssey Wins the 2010 COVR Award For Best Website!

For the past thirteen years I've attend a show in Denver, Colorado called the International New Age Trade Show (INATS). This is where I've had the pleasure of meeting some of the wonderful authors whose books we carry (including Ted Andrews, Silver RavenWolf, Richard Webster, Louise Hay, Doreen Virtue, Wayne Dyer, etc.). There is also an industry Association present at this show called COVR - Coalition of Visionary Retailers and each year they present Awards for the industry’s best books, music and sidelines.

This year Odyssey was presented with the award for BEST WEBSITE! This is the first time a retail store has ever been recognized with this prestigious honour (in the past it has always been given to vendors or large publishers like Llewellyn). In addition, it is also the first time a Canadian business has been chosen.

The Award would not have been possible without the skill, talent and dedication of Leila Vey of New World Media Artists. A few years ago she took on the arduous task of totally redesigning our website and adding new content, product categories, photos, and a shopping cart. In addition, Kerrie Christensen, Lawren Purvis & Emylee Cuthbertson have helped support the site with product additions and updates.

And since our Calendar of Events is such an integral part of our site (and our store) we also want to acknowledge and thank Linda Lee Purvis for her creativity and hard work in providing Odyssey with a fantastic new tabloid-size, picture-rich, full-colour format.

The Award itself is a large marble obelisk, which we will have at the store for you to see.

I want to thank you so much for being an integral part of the Odyssey community and for allowing me to share our wonderful news with you.

Rental fees are based on the retail price of the DVDs - 10% for two nights, 15% for four nights or 20% for a whole week. Late charges are $2.00 per day but we know you will have them back to us in time.

Healing Blessings for Earth & Its Inhabitants

Let us join together collectively and focus our healing energies towards the recovery of Haiti, Chile and all the areas of our wonderous planet that have been affected by disaster.

Please send your love along with white, gold and platinum light, and the healing energies with which you work to support those in need. If you use the violet flame to help transcend non-beneficial energies or are skilled at grid-work to help repair disconnected energy lines, your assistance is also required.

Let us pray that the medical experts and volunteer helpers can gain access to all areas in need; that the supplies of water, food and clothing can reach all desperate individuals; that all the monies raised worldwide will be used efficiently & effectively to rebuild healthy, livable communities; and that the people affected are blessed with hope for the future.

And may we pray for the thousands of dear souls who suffered deeply as well as to those who have passed onto the other side.

Let us pray that the countries of the world unify together to assist with whatever means they have to assist areas of the planet that have been devastated by natural disasters & mis-guided human actions. And that in this unification, all citizens will realize that what is most important is to move toward a brighter future with more love, cooperation, acceptance & respect between nations and peoples, including the unseen and those from multi-dimensional existences.
