PROFILE
OF AUTHOR & SPEAKER:
Ambassador Zara Jane Juan is a
Broadcast Journalist, Playwright, Producer, Director, Co-Author of World
History (DIWA) & Author of Wellness for Peace Education on
Climate Change (UN). She was a Former Peace Ambassador from 2011-2015 and
a Goodwill Ambassador (Binibining Pilipinas in 1993). Now she's a Convenor of
Climate Change and Peace Building 2016-2020.
As a Director & Producer, she’s
been writing modules and conducting Team Building Workshops since year 2000 and
received several citations for its timely and effective approach. But, it was
her book, the “Innovative Mind and Body” written after she miraculously
recovered from stroke that push her in the mainstream. The book started
its Tour in 2008 and amazingly well accepted and sponsored by
private companies, media, civic societies, academe and several government
agencies! With overwhelming support, she started
“Wellness Pilipinas!” and co-produce its TV show as a response to the call
of World Health Organization to combat depression by lessening the augment of
lifestyle diseases of stroke, obesity, cancer, diabetes, etc. As an
environmentalist and lover of animals, she was invited by the UN International
Day of Peace in 2010 to draft her formula for peace, to which she did; the
Module “Wellness for Peace” became the Philippine Contribution to United
Nations in 2011.
As a consecrated missionary since 2003
through the Sailing for Peace Programs, she is bound to share her spiritual
discipline by conducting holistic retreats. For every social interaction she
experienced, the author is thankful that her God given talent inspires her to
continuously write about it for human development. It is her mission to teach
how to achieve the ‘peace within’ through actual experiences. Her books are
guidelines on how to achieve the ‘unique’ peaceful personality that we like,
learn how to master it, and eventually use it in our home, schools, workplaces
and communities for peace and nation building. She maintains a very simple
life with her cats and birds, and is funding her worldwide peace
missionary programs from her personal income as Book Author & Resource
Speaker.

Let's
PRAY FOR PEACE daily every 12:00 noon
PRAYER
FOR PEACE
“God
bless your day whatever your mood maybe
May
the angels guide you and protect you from harm.
If
you are travelling, may you find the road and arrive at your destination
safely.
If
trouble comes along the way, may it turn into blessings favorable to all!
May
you meet new friends and may the old ones stay.
May
the love of our Divine Creator fill your emptiness
and
may you feel it in the vastness of the universe!
If
you get so tired today, may you find time to look up the sky,
feel
the air, recharge and rejuvenate!
And
in all the things you did today, may your faith increase.
May
you be inspired by the diversity of people’s personalities
and
be grateful that you were granted the chance to lead them…
…and
at the end of the day tonight, as your rest,
may
you be thankful for all the blessings that this day had…
and
pray to forgive those who offended you. AMEN!”
Thank
you for sharing a powerful prayer!
