Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Fear, Anxiety, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life
October 22, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Coming Home Together Online Gathering:
Fear, Anxiety, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life
Wednesday, October 22, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific
Noon Eastern, 5pm BST
on Zoom
Recording will be available and sent to all who register.
The Coming Home Together online gathering is a safe space and loving community for trauma healing and awakened living, informed by the deepest teachings of nondual reality.
Our focus for this meeting is on fear and freedom from fear. Do fear and anxiety grab you?
These are essential emotions to investigate on the path of awakening. Because if left unexplored, they pull our attention into our spinning minds and create a sense of separation from ourselves, each other, and the natural unfolding of 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.
When taken over by fear, we forget that we can rest as Being. Rather than trusting the effortless flow of all things, we worry, control, and judge. And we lose compassion for ourselves and others.
When fear and anxiety rule, believing their stories limits us in life. Thoughts filled with stress and negativity will be our living experience. We dwell in our heads—while we unknowingly overlook the here-and-now presence of infinite peace and love.
Consider the disconnection expressed in so many ways in our world today that creates conflict, aggression, division, and painful othering. Fear is at the core.
Fear is a survival mechanism that is built into the human brain and nervous system. Yet, the realization of our true nature invites us to explore beyond its protective voice. In our gathering together, we’ll explore how fear, and its cousin anxiety, show up in the body and the stories they tell us that keep us rattled.
When we believe what anxious thoughts tell us, we’re living in a fear-fueled fantasy in our minds, disconnected from aliveness, awareness, and truth here and now. We’ll investigate to see if these stories we live by are actually true. How do we live if we’re not guided by fear and anxiety? Who are we in this boundless freedom?
Through guided meditation, practical guidance, and heartfelt conversation, you’ll discover the potential—already in you—to be fully alive in your life, free beyond the limits of fear.
Together, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation, vibrant joy, and deep connection with all of Life.

Friends are saying:
“What you’re pointing to is so difficult to talk about in words, but you describe it so brilliantly and give such practical, actionable steps to follow that I truly, deeply get it. I just cannot express to you how transformative your approach has been for me. I am inhabiting my life with so much more peace and openness, flow and freedom.” ~Sandra Joseph, Broadway star and author of Unmasking What Matters
“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.
“I felt bathed in presence on the retreat. Your clarity and presentation style was lovely. I found the guided meditations to be very helpful. I appreciate how relatable you are in the group, how you don’t set yourself apart.” ~Denis N.
“Thank you so much for your teachings and for all the compassion and love you transmit to me, and so many others. Your teachings are a gift of grace and love.” ~Pat Brown
“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…”
