Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Being Fully Ourselves in Our Relationships
May 10, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Coming Home Together Online Gathering:
Being Fully Ourselves in Our Relationships
Wednesday, May 10, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific
Noon Eastern, 5pm BST, 6pm CET
on Zoom
Recording will be available and sent to all who register.
The Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living. Your everyday human life will be the laboratory as we explore the myth of the separate self, unexplored trauma patterns, and everyday living of the deepest teachings of nondual reality.
Please register here. Once you register, you will be directed to the zoom link—and you will receive it by email one hour prior to our meeting. A sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.
Our focus for this meeting is on how we can be fully ourselves in our relationships. Many of us struggle with finding healthy boundaries with others. We override our inner knowing as we put up with mistreatment, can’t say no, feel taken advantage of, and don’t get our needs met.
The root of this confusion lies in experiences we had early on in life where we needed to leave ourselves in order to stay connected to those around us. We then lose the capacity to trust ourselves, especially when our very survival is at stake.
If this pattern lives in us unexplored, we find ourselves challenged in our adult relationships. How do we stay rooted in ourselves when we’re in connection with others? How do we honor what is true and authentic in us—and still be kind, loving, and open?
In the spirit of freedom, we’ll fearlessly study how we end up feeling disempowered in our relationships. We’ll meet our frozenness and pain with love, care, and unconditional acceptance. And we’ll look beyond our programmed patterns to begin to trust the movements arising in us. Our focus is on our relationship to our own experience.
Staying attuned inside, we find openness, clarity, and the willingness to risk being ourselves fully. Untying the inner knots that lie at the core of our relationship struggles brings freshness, ease, and space for new and authentic ways of being.
With guided meditation, teachings, and conversation, we’ll practice creating safe space to meet ourselves intimately. Together, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand beyond the known into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you!

Friends are saying:
“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy. No longer a slave to external circumstances and inner chatter. Loving life the way it is.” ~Susan R.
“I liked the sense of trust, profound acceptance, safety, unconditional love and support that Gail brought to us. The course made me realize the importance of being involved in a community of people dedicated to the most important thing to me, Healing and Awakening. I just cannot do it alone!” ~Aline B.
“Your work is a bridge between practical daily life and Supreme Reality.” ~Henrique N.
“You radiate such warmth, kindness, beauty and wisdom. I had been stuck for so long and by listening to your sage advice, am finally starting to see and feel the light. Your light helps us to shine our own.” ~Julie Desmarais
“At any moment, within the field of your own experience, there is an inner sanctuary of presence and stillness. You access this space by shifting your attention away from the jumble of thoughts, feelings, stories, fears, and external input such as others’ opinions. You simply turn inward—beyond all mind movement—and be.
In no time at all, you find the ground of being, the light of living vibration that’s here in every moment. It’s timeless, which means it’s eternally present, and all-embracing as the unity of all. Don’t be afraid of this vast love. Fall into its arms…”
