SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Trauma Healing and Awakening in the Body
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nTrauma Healing and Awakening in the Body \nWednesday\, March 18\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 4pm BST\non Zoom \n\nPLEASE NOTE START TIME IS ONE HOUR EARLIER THIS WEEK IN THE UK AND MAINLAND EUROPE \n\nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on the body as a gateway for healing and awakening. What is your relationship to your body? Your body image? The physical sensations and energies that arise? Numbness and dissociation? Your nervous system? \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nThere is much to be explored when we bring our attention to the physical realm of our experience. We find the root of emotions\, the residue of old habits and traumas…and the possibility for the free flow of the vibration of life as it appears through the body. We realize we can live in daily life in our bodies\, fully experiencing all that is.  \nMany of us live in our heads—without much awareness of our physicality. And when we open to experiences occurring in our bodies\, we find hidden contractions\, habitual ways of being\, and places that feel stuck or shut down. \nLet’s explore how we disconnect from life…how does the sense of separation live in our bodies and nervous systems? Then we’ll bring awareness to these body experiences to liberate them from unconsciousness and the limits of our stories. \nBecause sensation without a story is simply life energy…without interpretation\, past\, or future. We begin to enjoy this embodied aliveness! \nIn our sacred time together\, we’ll bring space\, breath\, and deep compassion to our body experiences. Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll turn toward our bodies\, holding all that arises in the infinite freedom of loving presence. We’ll discuss specific tools and practices for body awareness\, informed by wisdom traditions. \nAll are welcome as we lovingly embrace our humanness…and expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, March 18\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 4pm BST\, 5pm CET \n\nPLEASE NOTE START TIME IS ONE HOUR EARLIER THIS WEEK IN THE UK AND MAINLAND EUROPE \n\nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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. \n“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. \n“Your work is a bridge between practical daily life and Supreme Reality.” ~Henrique N. \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 \n  \n\n“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. \nIn 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…”\n~Gail \nGail Brenner\, Ph.D. is your guide on this journey. She is a clinical psychologist and lover of truth with a fire that burns brightly.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Not at Peace? Let's Explore Attachment
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nNot at Peace? Let’s Explore Attachment \nWednesday\, March 11\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 4pm BST\, 5pm CET\non Zoom \n\nPLEASE NOTE START TIME IS ONE HOUR EARLIER THIS WEEK IN THE UK AND MAINLAND EUROPE \n\nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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.. \nOur focus for this meeting is on a deep exploration of attachment. What is attachment? It’s a whole body experience of leaving the present moment. We believe our desires and expectations that tell us we need something we don’t have for our peace and happiness. We experience a loss of freedom when we’re attached to certain outcomes happening. \nWe make our inner peace dependent on things we can’t control—people\, money\, success\, possessions\, health\, circumstances\, or even life itself—and when we do\, we suffer. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\n If we stay mired in our attachments\, we’re resisting reality. It’s like living in a room filled with furniture—everywhere we turn we bump into something. We want life to be as we want it…and not how it actually is. Sound familiar? \nIn our time together\, we’ll open lovingly to an exploration of the ways we’re attached. We’ll go behind the curtain of our attachments to discover fear…of losing control\, of loss\, of not getting what we think we need. And we’ll open to the free flow of life… Can we align with—and trust—the truth of our experience\, can we practice saying “yes” to reality as it is? \nThe exploration of attachments invites us to reflect on how we meet whatever appears in the moments of our lives. We may not be able to control what happens\, but we can choose how we want to show up and relate to our present moment experience. \nAnd here is where we find where we find wonder\, potential\, inspiration\, and spontaneity. \nThrough guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll discover the potential—already in you—to be fully alive in your life\, free beyond attachments. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, March 11\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 4pm BST\, 5pm CET \n\nPLEASE NOTE START TIME IS ONE HOUR EARLIER THIS WEEK IN THE UK AND MAINLAND EUROPE \n\nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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 \n“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. \n“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. \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 \n“You radiate such warmth\, kindness\, beauty and wisdom.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Unpacking Hurt and Disappointment
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nUnpacking Hurt and Disappointment \nWednesday\, March 4\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on bringing wise inquiry to the sticky experiences of hurt and disappointment. These are longheld stories entwined with emotions that can be so painful! And they feel intensely personal. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\nIn the spirit of liberation from all contractions of separation\, we’ll open the door into these experiences and unpack them. \nBoth hurt and disappointment are fundamentally relational. We feel them in reaction to other people—what they should or shouldn’t do—and these stories can keep us stuck for a very long time. \nHolding onto them\, we project out our young needs and feel disappointed and hurt when they’re not met. These experiences take up residence in our minds\, bodies\, and nervous systems. Can you feel the tension and heaviness? \nThe medicine for hurt and disappointment is a brave and loving inner exploration. This is what brings us to clear seeing about these difficult experiences so they can soften. Together\, we’ll feel into our direct experience and offer loving attention to the young parts longing to be seen and met. \nWe’ll open to insights and tools that help to loosen the grip of our tender needs. And we’ll invite the fragments of ourselves\, still looking for love “out there\,” to be held and welcomed into the light of our unlimited capacity for loving awareness. We start to feel empowered\, spacious\, and free. \nYou are unconditionally welcome just as you are for this exploration. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, March 4\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Getting to the Core of Early Trauma Patterns
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nGetting to the Core of Early Trauma Patterns \nWednesday\, February 25\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on giving our compassionate attention to how disruption in our early relationships affects us. If we felt unsafe\, rejected\, unseen\, or disconnected early in our lives\, we develop an identity that we are unworthy\, not good enough\, or wounded beyond repair. \nPlease 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. \nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nWe haven’t had the support we need to regulate our nervous systems so we can feel balanced and grounded in ourselves and in life. \nAnd we grow up trying to figure out how to cope with the sense that something is missing. Some of the ways we do that are overachieving\, perfectionism\, people pleasing\, self-judgment\, or hiding from life. \nTogether\, we create a field of safe space to explore these tender parts of ourselves. We support each other to meet them with deep acceptance and care\, and have the space to realize there is so much more to life than our patterns! \nMany of our conditioned patterns have plagued us for years. We hear about freedom as a possibility\, but we just don’t know how to find our way there. We feel stuck in the painful sense of separation…from ourselves and the sacredness of all of Life.  \nIn our time together\, we’ll practice staying grounded in our present moment experience\, and from here we turn our attention inward to recognize our mind-made limited stories from the past that create personal suffering.  \nFinally\, 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 loving community—to find our way home. We lean into our shared being—and our shared breath—to support us.  \nOur gathering includes guided meditation\, heartfelt teachings\, practical tools\, and Q&A.  \nCome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, February 25\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Deep Listening: A Portal to Connection and Embodied Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nDeep Listening: A Portal to Connection and Embodied Freedom \nWednesday\, February 18 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on deep listening as a way to be. Do you feel lonely and disconnected? Separate from your true nature? Then consider listening as a portal into divine connection with all things. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\nHow often are we in our heads in a conversation\, not actually connected to the person in front of us. And how much do we miss out on our here-and-now experience\, when we’re not actually alive to it? \nIf we’re driven by unexplored fear or need\, we’re looking for guidance in our thoughts about how to live and be. Our programmed patterns are in charge as we get caught in endlessly trying to make decisions\, navigate our relationships\, and find our way in life. It’s stressful…and fruitless as a path to happiness… \nGreat news! There’s another completely different way to be\, which is to stop\, relax\, open\, and get curious. We listen\, not through veils of fear or lack\, but with every cell in our bodies\, with our hearts and minds wide open\, alive and receptive in the deepest place in us that trusts life’s unfolding. \nThis way invites us to shift away from our thinking minds so we’re available to all that’s here now—discovering intimate connection with each other\, the aliveness of the moment\, and life’s intelligence. \nIn our time together\, we’ll explore the practice of deep listening\, first to strengthen our connections with each other\, and then to open to knowing the truth of reality as one with life\, unity with all…clear seeing with nothing in the way. \nWhen you let fear- and need-based tendencies be\, what does life have in store for you? What is on the horizon itching to be expressed through you? What truth have you been avoiding? How intimate can your relationships be? \nThrough guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll explore the possibility of being fully available to the river of life as it’s flowing right now… \nWe lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, February 18\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Being the Healing Space of Loving Presence
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nBeing the Healing Space of Loving Presence \nWednesday\, January 28\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nPlease register here.

A sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\nOur focus for this meeting is on exploring the healing capacity of boundless loving presence. The true nature of who we are includes everything with no resistance. It offers a continual open “yes” to everything that appears as life unfolds.\n \nThis deep and natural acceptance is profoundly healing to the pain of our early trauma patterns. For many of us\, it’s what we’ve longed for our whole lives…and it invites us into our true nature—relaxed\, open\, and available to life. \nGrowing up without this loving acceptance\, we developed strategies to protect ourselves\, contracting into patterns of withdrawal\, people-pleasing\, control\, or incessant stressful thinking. We’ve been caught in strong emotions\, not knowing how to find our way to peace. \nWe looked outward toward others to find unconditional acceptance\, and sadly learned that the people around us may not have been capable of offering it. And now we can recognize that this loving presence is actually the nature of reality that has been here all along. It’s the timeless medicine that welcomes home all parts of ourselves with unconditional love. \nAs we take our stand here as this openness\, we find the loving space that holds these painful residues from the past. As the parts absorb into this ever-present love\, their tension relaxes\, and we discover the safety to be our full freedom. \nNo longer clouded by trauma patterns\, we find the capacity for true connection\, steadiness of being\, creative expression\, and utter delight in the simple pleasures of everyday life. \nAnd miraculously\, we find that we can hold this unconditional loving space for others as well. \nOur gathering offers a supportive field of safe and authentic relating. With guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll practice being the space of boundless love—for ourselves and others. \nCome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, January 28\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

A sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nWhether we feel stuck in regret for our own past actions or blame others for their actions\, keeping these stories alive now impacts our minds\, hearts\, bodies\, and sense of freedom.  \nImmersed in wanting the past to be different\, the stories repeat in our minds now along with sadness\, anger\, guilt and shame. It’s a form of secret suffering that we carry into the moments of our lives. We feel separate\, frustrated\, and unable to live fully.  \nIn our time together\, we’ll address how to come to peace with these familiar narratives. No matter what happened in the past\, the key is to take an active and empowered role in our own healing.  \nWe’ll discover that we can form a new relationship with how the events from the past live in us. Leaving the harsh reality of blame\, regret\, and wishful thinking\, we’ll open to clear seeing and compassion…for ourselves and other people.  \nFinally\, we realize we can’t go it alone. We follow the path of our indigenous ancestors of being held by community for healing and restoration of our essential wholeness. \nWe support each other—in loving community—as we illuminate our inner experience to understand exactly where we’re stuck..and find our way back home to peace\, freedom\, and all-encompassing love. \nDetails \nWednesday\, January 21\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5:00pm BST\, 6:00pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Inner Silence Is a Superpower
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nInner Silence Is a Superpower \nWednesday\, January 14\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on cultivating inner silence. Beneath the swirling mind\, beneath emotions\, beneath the pull of our reactions is a field of silence…the calm center that is always here. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nDiscover this silence just for a moment\, and it becomes a sanctuary\, a safe place to rest. Silence offers the possibility of a reset; it’s the space of awareness that gives us insight into our thinking minds and conditioned patterns instead of being absorbed in them. \nDuring my first silent meditation retreat years ago\, I discovered the well of silence beneath my thinking mind. Settling into this deep quiet led me to the shocking realization of negative thoughts running nonstop. The reason for my suffering became crystal clear—I had believed these thoughts without question and they formed my experience of my everyday reality. \nNo wonder I was unhappy! \nThis insight that changed everything for me became available only by knowing inner silence. \nIn our time together\, we’ll explore the direct experience of inner silence. We slow down…get quiet…turn our attention away from our thinking minds…and connect with the alive presence that’s here as the foundation of any moment. \nFrom this silent field\, we study how our minds work and feel into the urge to move into our conditioned patterns. And we rest in open Beingness\, free of any defined personal identity. Inner silence is presence that deepens our connection with everything and everyone. It’s the field from which awe\, joy\, and creativity flow. \nOur gatherings offer safe and loving community for guided meditation\, practical teachings\, helpful tools\, and heartfelt conversation. Together we share inner silence and our love of freedom! I look forward to being with you… \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Compassionate Inquiry: How We Avoid and Resist
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nCompassionate Inquiry: How We Avoid and Resist \nWednesday\, January 7\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \n“What you resist not only persists\, but will grow in size.”\n~Carl Jung \nOur focus for this meeting is on a compassionate investigation of the human tendency to avoid and resist our experience. \nIt’s our natural\, awakened state to resist nothing. When the illusion of separation is seen through\, there’s simply the effortless free flow of experience continually welcoming everything. \nThere is no threat\, no fear\, and no sense of a person who needs to avoid or defend. \nBut add in human reactions\, fears\, needs\, and expectations\, and the world starts to feel unsafe. We leave the peace of our true nature to defend\, control\, and avoid our own experience. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nIf you want to know the luminous peace of your true nature\, then it’s wise to know how and when you resist. \nWhat is resistance? It’s an activity of the agitated mind that says\, “no!” to our present moment experience. It’s a desire to cling to some experiences and push others away—a desire for ourselves\, others\, and the world to be different—because if things were different\, then we will finally be at peace.  \nWe recognize ways we avoid and resist with tenderness\, as they were needed at some time in the past for protection and safety. \nIn our sacred time together\, we’ll lovingly open to how and why we turn away from our own experience—and the truth of the moment. Why do we resist what is? What is the form of resistance we call spiritual bypassing? \nAnd we’ll invite in the possibility of opening to all that is with infinite openness and curiosity. We end the inner war with our experience as we relax into the peace beyond peace. \nAll are welcome as we lovingly embrace our humanness…and expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, January 7\, 2026 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \nPlease register here.

And\, as this light\, we’re invited to embody the knowing that every moment is a fresh beginning.  \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nLeaving our inner experience unexamined creates division and leads to continued suffering and isolation. \nAvoiding the pain of disconnection\, we blame others or ourselves\, which makes us feel even more disconnected. Turning away from any discomfort that arises within\, we abandon ourselves with busyness\, self-judgment\, compulsive behavior\, and seeking approval from others.  \nWe bring the past into the present and forget the absolute freshness of our present moment experience. \nOpening to everything that arises is a glorious and heartfelt practice that softens our edges and invites us into deeper connection with ourselves\, others\, and all of Life. It’s the healing balm for our human reactions of shame\, worry\, and the need to fix ourselves. \nWith the fire for freedom\, we align ourselves with awareness that\, by its very nature\, always welcomes everything. In our time together\, we’ll feel into the qualities that invite this welcoming—curiosity\, safety\, courage\, the desire for divine union. And we’ll honor the ways we stay in darkness\, turning away from the tender places in us and the fear of meeting them. \nOur gatherings offer guided meditation\, practical teachings\, helpful tools\, and heartfelt conversation. Together we share the pathless path of discovering clarity\, freedom\, and the simple joy of being alive—always fresh and available right now! \nI’m excited to be with you in this time of transition and fresh beginnings… \nQuestions?

DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nLoving Attention to the Inner Critic \nWednesday\, December 17\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living.  \n“I watched and listened to yesterday’s session today. I’m very grateful for this community. Even though I couldn’t be there in person\, I feel the strong heart connection. I so appreciate your presence and the loving compassionate space that is created. It’s a healing salve to my heart 🙏🏼💝”\n~From a recent participant \nOur focus for this meeting is on the harsh voice and false identity of the inner critic. Many of us are aware of this strong and negative habitual voice that appears in our minds. This voice can be shaming\, militant\, perfectionistic\, and demanding. \nAlthough its intention is often to protect us\, it makes us contract into a separate and limited identity\, turns us against our truth\, and traps us by its high standards. We may not realize how stressful it is to live under its control. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nIn our time together\, we’ll unpack the inner critic thought pattern with understanding and compassion. We’ll learn to identify when it has taken hold\, and feel into the fear\, grief\, anger\, and shame that lie at its core.  \nWe’ll practice untangling our attention from what it tells us so we have the space to connect with what is true and alive in us. As our attachment to this voice softens\, we’ll relax into ways of living that are kind and loving toward all that arises…and more aligned with the unity of all. \nHow do you work toward goals without the inner critic driving you? How do you function when when this critical and negative noise subsides? When the inner critic is in charge\, we’re out of touch with our vulnerability\, truth\, and deep knowing. We’ll welcome these suppressed parts of ourselves into the light of loving awareness where they can flourish\, innocent and free… \n Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll explore the freedom that’s possible\, here and now\, beyond the contraction of the inner critic. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, December 17\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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. \n“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. \n“Your work is a bridge between practical daily life and Supreme Reality.” ~Henrique N. \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 \n\n“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. \nIn 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…”\n~Gail \nGail Brenner\, Ph.D. is your guide on this journey. She is a clinical psychologist and lover of truth with a fire that burns brightly.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Who Are You? The Essential Question for Trauma Healing and Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nWho Are You? The Essential Question for Trauma Healing and Awakening \nWednesday\, November 19\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together is a safe space and loving community for trauma healing and awakened living\, informed by the deepest teachings of nondual reality.. \nOur focus for this meeting is on the essential spiritual question\, “Who am I?” and why it matters to explore it.  \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nAt the root of personal suffering lies the belief that who we are is a person with a history\, story\, needs\, preferences\, fears\, and a sense of lack. As long as we identify as this core belief\, we will view ourselves\, others\, and situations through the lens of these limited and distorted filters. \nWhat does this mean for you and your life? Say that you’ve learned to define yourself as unworthy or inadequate. This belief will lead you to override your authentic dreams and desires. Your focus is on seeking approval from others in an attempt to feel whole\, and you’ll believe that happiness and fulfillment are not meant for you.  \nThis is how it works for any fear- or lack-based belief we think defines us. If we’re attached to stories\, emotions\, and ideas about the past or future\, we’ll contract into a false sense of self that affects everything about our human experience in life. \nThe release from suffering occurs when we disconnect our identity from the contents of our minds. We no longer feed our habits of thinking. We stop going to our familiar stories to know who we are or how to act. We don’t buy into hopes\, expectations\, should’s—or any thought that limits us. \nWe take loving care of our young parts and know they don’t define us. \n This is a radical shift into freedom\, expansion\, and not knowing—and into the pure aliveness that has always been here and available.  \nAre you interested in suffering less? We come together in the sacred space of loving community to explore the nature of identity and the freedom that’s possible when you know who you are—and who you’re not. Bring all of you—your fears\, doubt\, shame\, questions—and joy. All is welcome! \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, November 19\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Discovering the Gifts of Anger
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nDiscovering the Gifts of Anger \nWednesday\, November 12\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nPlease register here.

A sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nOur focus for this meeting is on exploring anger with curiosity\, care\, and compassion.  \nWe’ll open to how the energy of anger shows up in the body and explore the actions it motivates us to take. How does anger create separation? How do we turn “others” into objects of our hate\, disappointment\, and need in our minds? We’ll explore when and how to express anger in the context of relationships. \nWe’ll also focus on how we experienced anger in our families when we were young. We’ll gently (and boldly) unearth the messages we carry and discover that we don’t have to live according to them. That’s how we begin to consciously include the enlivening energy of anger and its laser-like discernment without avoiding it or acting out on it. With this investigation\, we discover we can be fully alive and free in our lives.  \nWe only need to look around us to find numerous examples of unintegrated anger that lives in people unconsciously and gets projected onto others. Wars\, prejudice\, domination\, gun violence\, road rage…our world is filled with the emotion of anger and its accompanying stories that bring about separation. \nChange starts here—with how each one of us relates to our anger. We’ll turn toward anger and all that it brings to our experience\, inviting it out of the shadows and into the light of conscious experience to be felt and integrated. We’ll discuss wise ways to be with anger and play with letting its passion inform the deepest parts of our being. That’s how we live in the love that includes all\, rather than feeding separation. \nAwakening to our true nature leaves no stone unturned\, including the challenge of anger. Together\, we’ll open to the gifts that anger offers\, and miraculously we’ll notice a greater capacity for spaciousness and flow. \nWith guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll practice creating safe space to unpack how anger lives in us. 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! \nQuestions?

And yes\, it’s an art! We’ll open to the messiness\, confusion\, and ever present possibility for presence and heart. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nOur connections with others offer the precious opportunity for sharing the beingness of our true nature and embodying infinite compassion that welcomes all. How open can we be? \nIf we don’t feel free to be our authentic selves in our relationships\, then a conditioned pattern has taken hold. We lose our grounding in love and openness\, and we feel the pain of disconnection. \nWe’re identifying with limiting stories that tell us we’re not good enough or need to protect ourselves. Then we project our fears and needs onto others\, hoping for things to improve\, but getting familiar results such as abandonment\, rejection\, and not being seen. \nAt the same time\, others may be projecting their fears and needs onto us. That’s how we end up in a relationship dance that feels unfulfilling. \nNo wonder we feel lonely and isolated. We’re relating through patterns and not actually meeting each other for the intimate and loving connection we long for. \nWe learn about relating with others early on in our lives\, and for some of us\, the message is that we need to suppress our authenticity in order to feel safe. Instead\, we try to connect by pleasing others\, or we give up altogether and settle for disconnection. Navigating relationships can be confusing—and frustrating! \nCome and explore the invitation to see through the veils of our conditioning that appear in our relationships. We’ll turn inward to lovingly meet the tender places in us that we’re afraid to express. \nThen we’ll feel into the possibility of showing up with others—innocent and free—having the courage to inhabit what is naturally true and alive in us. \nThrough guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll explore the limiting narratives we bring to our relationships and practice how to move beyond them—into freedom and authenticity. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, November 5\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Fear\, Anxiety\, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nFear\, Anxiety\, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life \nWednesday\, October 22\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on  fear and freedom from fear. Do fear and anxiety grab you?  \nThese 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.  \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nWhen 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. \nWhen 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. \nConsider the disconnection expressed in so many ways in our world today that creates conflict\, aggression\, division\, and painful othering. Fear is at the core. \nFear 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.  \nWhen 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? \nThrough 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. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, October 22\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“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 \n“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. \n“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. \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 \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 \n\n“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. \nIn 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…”\n~Gail \nGail Brenner\, Ph.D. is your guide on this journey. She is a clinical psychologist and lover of truth with a fire that burns brightly.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together FREE Gathering—Core Practices for Peace and Happiness
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together FREE Online Gathering:\nCore Practices for Peace and Happiness\n \nEvent is free; all are welcome \nWednesday\, October 15\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThere is usually a charge for these gatherings\, but this one is free as an offering to you. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers safe space for trauma healing and awakened living\, informed by the deepest teachings of nondual reality. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \n Please register in advance for this free gathering by clicking here:\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/7edoaGqDQdqTBM9bE8ytrw  \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with information about how to join the gathering. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nOur focus for this meeting is on practices for peace and happiness in everyday life. These are the five core practices I describe in my book Suffering Is Optional. Practices give us tools to rely on when strong conditioned patterns take hold and help us to embody our deep love for freedom in the moments of our actual human lives.  \nWith practices\, we become conscious\, aware\, and loving\, feeling more connected in our relationships with ourselves and others.  \nHere are the five core practices: \n\nTurning toward your experience;\nThe safe haven of being aware;\nLosing interest in thoughts;\nWelcoming feelings; and\nThe sacred return to loving aware presence.\n\nThese practices are like breadcrumbs on the spiritual path to support you in finding your way back from the illusion of made-up\, limiting stories to the realization of the truth of your essential self. \nDo you want peace and freedom to be your living reality? Do you want to authentically connect with yourself and others? Then practice now with whatever habitual reactions appear. Let every story\, emotion\, and identity come into the light of awareness so you know exactly how you end up feeling limited and triggered. \nYou discover that who you are has always been whole\, fully alive\, and overflowing as love… You discover the freedom to be yourself fully. No longer veiled by conditioning\, you’ll expand into spaciousness\, fresh responding\, and an infinite capacity for love. \nIn our time together\, we’ll unpack these five practices so they feel accessible to all. Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll open to all that is with kindness and compassion as we find our way home.  \nCome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, October 15\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \n Please register in advance for this free gathering by clicking here:\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/7edoaGqDQdqTBM9bE8ytrw  \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with information about how to join the gathering. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Timeless Being...Always Fresh and New
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nTimeless Being…Always Fresh and New\n \nWednesday\, October 1\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living.

A sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nOur focus for this meeting is on time and timelessness. The past and future are mind-made concepts that create a sense of fear and lack. When we live in time\, we feel the weight of our past history and worries about the future as we attempt to live in presence. Our culture speaks to the benefits of being in the present moment. That’s because here is where we have the direct experience of life rather than the stories about our lives that are created in our minds. \nOur true nature as consciousness is timeless…no memory\, no past\, no time for problems to form\, no time for suffering\, no future fear…and no mind. There is just This\, the alive reality of the now\, directly experienced as it is. Thought isn’t needed\, in fact\, thinking about what’s happening takes us away from the reality of it. \nRealizing timelessness\, we know that every moment is fresh and new…so alive! There is always the opportunity to recognize wonder\, delight\, mystery\, and the unknown. There is no same-old\, same-old\, no boredom. Only This…This…This…with no resistance whatsoever. \nAs a being in human form\, the recognition of timelessness leaves us without an anchor in the known. Free of the limitation of thought\, we’re available to inspiration\, creativity\, and infinite knowing. Even if thoughts are present\, the mind is vast and open\, empty and alert. \nCome explore how time limits us in past and future and discover reality free of time. We leave the tunnel vision of old\, constricting ideas as we expand into our true home of unbounded consciousness. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nCome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, October 1\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—The Sacred Return: Awareness as a Way of Life
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nThe Sacred Return: Awareness as a Way of Life \nWednesday\, September 24\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living.  \nOur focus for this meeting is on awareness as a way of life. When we are consciously aware of our inner experience\, our whole life starts to make sense. As we lovingly turn toward the emotions\, thoughts\, and sensations and energies in the body\, we realize the direct experience of what drives our conditioned tendencies. And this awareness changes everything. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nWhen I first began the practice of inner awareness years ago\, I was shocked at what my mind was saying and how I felt—experiences I hadn’t realized were present. But once I knew\, I was able to get out of the rut of conditioning and into the world of potential for healing and opening…beyond anything I thought was possible. \n When we turn our attention inward\, we realize that we can also explore the being aware experience itself. Here we touch into the vibration of consciousness\, the formless aware alive Beingness that’s the source of all. We realize that nothing in form is separate from this aliveness\, which shifts our experience of everyone and everything toward the embodiment of compassion\, kindness\, and love. \nInner awareness as a way of life transforms everything—our interactions with “others\,” how we make choices in life\, how we relate to ourselves when we’re triggered\, our opinions\, expectations\, judgments\, and fears. \n Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll explore turning toward our inner experience\, our resistances to doing that\, and the gifts of staying consciously grounded in the here-and-now. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, September 24\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—The Spiritual Path to Inner Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nThe Spiritual Path to Inner Freedom \nWednesday\, August 27\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living.

What is the path? What are we looking for? How can we meet the twists and turns along the way? \nIn this gathering\, we will take a bird’s eye view of the spiritual path to understand what it is…and isn’t. If you are on the path of awakening\, something has lit up in your being that invites you into a deep exploration of all that is. We take our blinders off\, and bring everything that arises under the microscope of awareness\, authenticity\, and love. We’re motivated to see things clearly as they are and not clouded by the mind’s illusions.  \nThis is the path to inner freedom. \nWe call this passion for inner freedom the pathless path. We’re not getting something we don’t already have. We’re not fixing what we think might be broken in us. We’re not waiting for divine intervention.  \nThe pathless path is recognizing what is already here. Yet\, as we all know\, our attention can be pulled into familiar patterns that make us feel limited and separate. We believe our stories of inadequacy\, lack\, and fear. We feel lost in our minds and emotions and disconnected from the truth of being. How do we find our way home to the place of freedom…that we never left?   \nWhen we explore outside our familiar stories and mental patterns\, we find\, shining brilliantly\, the timeless essence of boundless peace\, freedom\, and love. This is you…who you’ve always been despite any stories that tell you otherwise. The truth was only temporarily hidden.  \nCome and explore the spiritual path to inner freedom in safe and supportive community. With guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll lovingly open to the mind’s conditioned ideas that convince us we’re not free and discover the way into the ever-present possibility of peace…the silent stillness of infinite being… \nYou are welcome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space in community with like-minded friends. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Feeling Safe: Gateway to Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nFeeling Safe: Gateway to Awakening \nWednesday\, August 20\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe Coming Home Together online gathering offers a deep dive into the practicalities of awakened living.

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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nOur focus for this meeting is on  what it means to feel safe and the role of safety in realizing our true nature. \nMany of us grow up not feeling emotionally safe in our families. The effects of this lack of safety can be far-reaching. We resort to strategies to cope and survive such as trying to figure everything out in our heads\, judging ourselves and others (the inner critic)\, people pleasing\, addiction\, and perfectionism.  \nAnd with no way of learning how to care for the emotions that naturally arise\, we disconnect from the most tender parts of our experience.  \nOver time\, we develop entrenched views of ourselves and others that are fear-based and limited. This is how we feel separate from ourselves and from life…and as we all know\, this is not a satisfying way to live. \nTrapped in these identities\, we long for wholeness\, but our search gets derailed by the inner mistrust we carry. \nThe realization of our true nature involves a shift of identification from a contracted sense of the personal self into the boundless field of alive presence. The tensions around fear and mistrust relax completely…and if they temporarily arise\, they come and go without attachment. We remain as peace.  \nIn our time together\, in loving community\, we’ll explore emotional safety. What is it? How do we find it? And how does it support the realization of who we are beyond any mind-made patterns? \nYou are welcome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space in community with like-minded friends. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Trauma Healing and Awakening in the Body
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nTrauma Healing and Awakening in the Body \nWednesday\, August 6\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on the body as a gateway for healing and awakening. What is your relationship to your body? Your body image? The physical sensations and energies that arise? Numbness and dissociation? Your nervous system? \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nThere is much to be explored when we bring our attention to the physical realm of our experience. We find the root of emotions\, the residue of old habits and traumas…and the possibility for the free flow of the vibration of life as it appears through the body. We realize we can live in daily life in our bodies\, fully experiencing all that is.  \nMany of us live in our heads—without much awareness of our physicality. And when we open to experiences occurring in our bodies\, we find hidden contractions\, habitual ways of being\, and places that feel stuck or shut down. \nLet’s explore how we disconnect from life…how does the sense of separation live in our bodies and nervous systems? Then we’ll bring awareness to these body experiences to liberate them from unconsciousness and the limits of our stories. \nBecause sensation without a story is simply life energy…without interpretation\, past\, or future. We begin to enjoy this embodied aliveness! \nIn our sacred time together\, we’ll bring space\, breath\, and deep compassion to our body experiences. Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll turn toward our bodies\, holding all that arises in the infinite freedom of loving presence. We’ll discuss specific tools and practices for body awareness\, informed by wisdom traditions. \nAll are welcome as we lovingly embrace our humanness…and expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, August 6\, 2025 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Wise Inquiry Into Emotions
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nWise Inquiry Into Emotions \nWednesday\, July 23\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on bringing wise inquiry to emotions. In the timeless formless infinite field of pure being\, what we call emotions might appear\, but presence remains undisturbed. Yet\, we all feel emotions\, and they are a normal part of the experience of being human. If you feel stuck in limitation and confusion\, emotions are probably involved. Met with care and unconditional welcoming\, they are a gateway into realizing our true nature. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nCaught in our limiting desires to protect and control\, we’re pulled to avoid our emotions. We’re afraid of being overwhelmed by them\, and we feel we don’t have the skills needed to actually turn inward and be with them. This creates an inner war that breeds anxiety and discontent. \nIn our time together\, we’ll practice inquiring into emotions. With openness and courage\, we turn toward our emotions\, and get to know how they live in our minds\, bodies\, and actions. This is the path to discovering freedom\, no matter how many times our emotions overtake us. \n We value the power of safe and loving community for this exploration because we need others for support and nervous system regulation. Resisting emotions is isolating and reinforces shame. In our time together\, in the spirit of peace and freedom\, we’ll open up to our experience of emotions. Because if we continue to be entangled in their stories\, we will continue to suffer.  \n Through guided meditation\, practical guidance\, and heartfelt conversation\, we’ll take our stand as loving aware presence and learn how to practice welcoming emotions freely\, taking our hands off the wheel and allowing their full liberation.  \nYou are unconditionally welcome just as you are. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, July 23\, 2024 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific \nStarts at noon Eastern\, 5pm BST\, 6pm CET \nRecording will be sent to everyone who registers. \nA sliding scale is offered for those with financial challenges.  \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nFriends are saying: \n\n“I am now experiencing longer moments of pure awareness and joy.

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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on finding freedom from the mind’s stories. Our exploration shows us that attachment to the contents of our minds distracts us from experiencing the aliveness of our true nature…and living day-to-day in this freedom. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\nOnce we’re no longer interested in using the mind to define ourselves and our reality\, we’re immediately present\, open to all that is\, free of mind-created fear and angst. We’re available to actually live the fullness of who we are—in our relationships with ourselves\, others\, and life as it unfolds in every moment. This is embodied freedom.  \nCompletely losing interest in the mind reveals the direct\, abiding experience of peace beyond peace…  \nIn our time together\, we’ll look at the ways the mind works\, including judgments\, opinions\, comparisons\, stories\, problem-solving\, and general nonstop commentary. What is behind the mind’s functioning? What does it have to do with feeling separate? And how do we unattach from the contents of the mind? (Hint: it’s not about making thoughts stop.) \nThrough guided meditation\, we’ll experiment with letting go of the mind’s stories and instead rest here…in open spaciousness…in pure loving awareness free of thinking…accessing the power of simply being present. \nWe move from what the mind tells us about “reality” to realize the direct experience of liberation here and now…with a radiant mind that is clear and open like the sky…lit up with wonder and delight… \nWe come together in the sacred space of loving community for this deep exploration\, including guided meditation\, teachings\, helpful tools\, and Q&A. Bring all of you—your fears\, doubt\, shame\, questions—and joy. All is welcome! \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions?

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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on turning toward our early trauma patterns—with compassionate and loving hearts—investigating how disruption in our family environments when were young creates limiting ways of being that we carry into adulthood. \nAnd we’ll shine the light of our awareness on the truth of who we are\, our essential wholeness that has never been touched by anything that’s happened… \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n  \nIf you felt unsafe\, rejected\, unseen\, or disconnected early in your life\, it’s common to develop a conditioned identity that you are not good enough or broken beyond repair. Your attention goes into your mind and away from your heart\, trying to figure out how to cope with the sense that something is wrong or missing.  \nA seed starts growing in us when we realize how much our conditioned patterns mask our happiness. Many of these patterns have plagued us for years. We hear about freedom as a possibility\, but we just don’t know how to find our way there. We feel stuck in the painful sense of separation…from ourselves\, others\, and the sacredness of all of Life. \nAs we deepen in the holy work of trauma healing\, we learn to care for the painful places that live in us. As the contractions of our trauma soften\, there’s space to blossom into ourselves. Almost like a miracle\, we begin to experience happiness\, wonder\, creativity\, and authentic relationships. \n Together\, we create a field of safe space to explore the ways we get stuck. We’ll turn toward our inner experience with compassion\, care\, and unconditional acceptance. And we’ll realize there is so much more to life than our patterns! \n Our time together includes guided meditation\, teachings\, practical tools\, and heartfelt conversation. \nFinally\, 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. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions?

We feel stuck in the painful sense of separation…from ourselves and the sacredness of all of Life.  \nIn our time together\, we’ll practice staying grounded in our present moment experience\, and from here we turn our attention inward to recognize our mind-made limited stories from the past that create personal suffering.  \nFinally\, 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 loving community—to find our way home. We lean into our shared being—and our shared breath—to support us.  \nOur gathering includes guided meditation\, heartfelt teachings\, practical tools\, and Q&A.  \nCome with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space together in community with like-minded friends. Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Fear\, Anxiety\, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nFear\, Anxiety\, and Trust in the Unfolding of Life \nWednesday\, June 25\, 9:00am – 10:30am Pacific\nNoon Eastern\, 5pm BST\non Zoom \nRecording will be available and sent to all who register. \nThe 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. \nOur focus for this meeting is on  fear and freedom from fear. Do fear and anxiety disturb you?  \nThese are essential emotions to investigate on the path of awakening. If left unexplored\, they pull our attention into our minds and a sense of separation. We forget that we can rest as Being which trusts the natural unfolding of life. \nPlease 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. \n\nChoose the amount you would like to pay.Option 1 $15.00 USDOption 2 $9.00 USDOption 3 $4.00 USD\n\n\nWhen fear and anxiety rule\, believing their stories limits us in life. Thoughts filled with worry 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. \nFear is behind the disconnection expressed in so many ways in our world today that create conflict\, aggression\, division\, and painful othering. \nFear 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.  \nWhen 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? \nThrough 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. \nTogether\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions?
