Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Freedom Beyond the Sense of the Separate Self
August 14, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Coming Home Together Online Gathering:
Freedom Beyond the Sense of the Separate Self
Wednesday, August 14, 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 is the laboratory as we open to the myth of the separate self, unexplored trauma patterns, and the right now experience of nondual reality.
Our focus for this meeting is on discovering how we make ourselves feel separate and limited. When we believe that we are defined by our stories and feelings, we live according to these constricted views. We’re prone to thinking about ourselves a lot, maintaining safety and protection, and taking things personally.
There is a strong sense of the inner self fueled by fear and lack and the outer world that feels unsafe. The belief in the separate self is at the root of our psychological struggles in life.
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.
In our supportive field of loving connection, we’ll explore the sense of separation so you can feel into exactly how it limits you. Then we’ll expand beyond separation into a way of being that is spacious, free and unattached. Here is where you discover aliveness, creativity, inspiration, and the joy of living. We’ll shed light on deep inner listening and surrender in the moments of daily life that lovingly replace the need for control.
You’ll practice staying grounded in your present moment experience, and from here we explore the programmed patterns that make us believe in the sense of separation.
We realize that we can’t go it alone. Our disconnection from our divine nature happened in the context of relationship so we need to practice together—in a supportive and loving community—to find our way home. Come with your fears, doubts, shame, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends.
With guided meditation, teachings, and conversation, we’ll practice creating safe space for this deep exploration. 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…”
