In our time together, we’ll bring conscious awareness to how we show up in the sacred space of our relationships.
We’ll explore the patterns we bring to relationships that create a sense of separation—from ourselves, others, and all of life. People-pleasing, putting up walls, needing to be right, holding grudges, defensiveness… These are signs of unexamined contractions that are ripe for liberation.
Untying the knots that lie at the core of our relationship struggles brings openness, ease, and space for new ways of being. We discover we can meet the tender places in ourselves with deep acceptance and care. Then we can open with compassion for all…
We discover the possibility of intimate and authentic connection…and a portal into the deepest knowing of infinite oneness beyond our personal identities.
With guided meditation, teachings, and conversation, we’ll practice creating safe space for deepening connection. Together, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand beyond the known into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life.
