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 working with our conditioned patterns in the sacred space of our relationships. \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 explore the patterns we bring to relationships that create a sense of separation—from ourselves\, others\, and all of life. We learn about relationships from our first connections with our caregivers early on in life. These are fear-based programmed ways of being that left us feeling unsafe\, rejected\, unseen\, or disconnected. \nWe haven’t experienced the possibility of intimate relationship and don’t know how to bring this possibility into our interactions now.   \nPeople-pleasing\, withdrawal\, needing to be right\, holding grudges\, inflating or deflating ourselves in comparison to others\, defensiveness… These are signs of unexamined contractions that are ripe for liberation. \nUntying the knots that lie at the core of our relationship struggles brings openness\, ease\, and space for new and authentic ways of being. We learn the most important practical skill\, which is to meet the tender places in ourselves with deep acceptance and love. This is what helps us navigate challenging interactions. Then we have the space to open with compassion to the struggles others might be experiencing as well. \nThe intimate connection we all long for unfolds when energy flows freely…and offers a portal into the deepest knowing of infinite oneness beyond our personal identities. \nWith 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. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, September 13\, 2023 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.

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.

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. \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 \nYet\, 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. \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. \n\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. 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?

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 human tendency to take things personally and the clarity that sets you free.\n \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\nAs young children\, our minds are self-centered\, meaning that we attribute things going on around us as our responsibility or fault. This is a normal phase of human development. \nIf we felt mistreated by a parent\, for example\, it’s natural for us to think that the cause is something negative about ourselves. This is the source of conditioned patterns such as feelings of inadequacy\, people pleasing\, self-judgment\, and shame. \nIn our time together\, we’ll untangle this tendency to take things personally by bringing understanding and compassion to others and ourselves. We’ll embody the discovery that\, even as children\, we were not responsible for the behavior of our caregivers. \nAnd we’ll go further to inquire into the identity of the one who seems to take things personally. Bringing the light of awareness to our direct experience\, we find no separate entity\, only thoughts and body sensations arising in an infinite field of formless energy completely at peace with itself. \nThrough guided meditation\, teachings\, and Q&A\, we’ll discover the unlimited space of aliveness beyond our personal stories. Come with your fears\, doubts\, shame\, and questions—and simply to share sacred space in community with like-minded friends. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions?

Rather than needing to fix and control\, we get out of our heads and rest effortlessly as the Being that we are\, loving whatever appears. \nEven if we’ve only had a taste of this knowing\, it serves to contemplate how to bring this truth into the moments of our everyday lives. \nOur true nature is present when we’re driving\, working\, interacting with others\, complaining about the weather\, zoning out on Netflix\, and planning the day. It’s here when we’re happy and when we’re feeling frustrated and stressed. \nLet’s gather in loving community to explore viewing everyday life through the eyes of love rather than fear and resistance. How can we embody a deep acceptance of all that is in the activities of our daily lives? How can we\, more and more\, step into our full magnificence as we were meant to be? \nTo the mind\, everyday life may look repetitive and unsatisfying. But to consciousness\, the seemingly ordinary is an expression of aliveness\, clear seeing\, and love. \nIn our time together\, we’ll get practical to discover a fresh way of being in the moments of daily life\, aligned with our natural essence as whole\, peaceful\, primed for joy\, and lacking nothing. Through guided meditation\, teachings\, and Q&A\, we’ll discover space for the living reality of intimacy with all that is….and the realization of the sacredness of all of Life. \nQuestions?

What false ideas are you believing—about yourself\, others\, and the world—that aren’t actually true? \nIn our time together\, we’ll turn toward our conditioned patterns with compassion and understanding—and explore beyond them\, lifting the veils so we can see reality as it is. We’ll feel into what it’s like to rest in the space of non-division free of stories…just pure perception that is timeless\, loving\, and infinitely fresh. \nWe come together in the sacred space of loving community for this deep exploration\, including teachings\, conversation\, and Q&A.

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. \nIn our sacred time together\, we’ll bring space and breath 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. \nAll are welcome as we lovingly embrace our humanness…and expand into overflowing appreciation\, vibrant joy\, and deep connection with all of Life.

These are fear-based programmed ways of being that we learned early in our lives and left us feeling unsafe\, rejected\, unseen\, or disconnected. \nPeople-pleasing\, withdrawal\, needing to be right\, holding grudges\, defensiveness… These are signs of unexamined contractions that are ripe for liberation. \nUntying the knots that lie at the core of our relationship struggles brings openness\, ease\, and space for new and authentic ways of being. We discover we can meet the tender places in ourselves with deep acceptance and care. Then we have the space to open with compassion to the struggles others might be experiencing as well. \nThe intimate connection we all long for unfolds when energy flows freely…and offers a portal into the deepest knowing of infinite oneness beyond our personal identities. \nWith guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll practice creating safe space for deepening connection.

Being attached is part of the human experience. We believe what our thoughts tell us about what should and shouldn’t happen…we want things unfold in life according to our desires and expectations. \nWe make our peace and happiness dependent on things we can’t control—people\, money\, success\, possessions\, health\, circumstances\, or even life itself—and when we do\, we suffer. \nIf 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 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?

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 again 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 even more 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 even more 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.

How can we know the freedom of our true nature\, even when anger is present? What are the gifts that anger offers us? \nAnger is a challenging reaction for many of us—because its energy can be strong. We’re scared of anger and suppress it\, or it bursts out and wreaks havoc on ourselves and our relationships. \nHow does anger live in your system? Hidden in fear\, shutting you down\, ready to explode\, a seething slow burn\, in judgment and sarcasm? \nAwakened consciousness is naturally open to everything. In our gathering together\, we’ll bring anger out of the shadows and into the light of conscious awareness—because if anger is present it’s here to be seen\, felt and known. We’ll explore the story it tells and tune into its enlivening energy that comes through the body. And we’ll include what you learned about anger when you were young. \nWith great compassion\, we’ll give anger space to be\, acknowledging the power that it can offer us. \n Through guided meditation\, teachings\, and Q&A\, we’ll address ways to express this sometimes confusing emotion with authenticity and care and explore self-care practices that support its integration.

If we want to live from a place of spaciousness\, openness\, and unity with all\, we need to know what prevents us from doing so. In the times when we can rest in a place of Being\, then there’s nothing to do but flow with life’s unfolding…celebrating…steeped in love… \nBut when we feel contracted\, stuck\, and separate from others and the world\, we’re asked to investigate what has taken hold in our minds and emotions. \n Once we’re aware of the patterns that rise up\, we have the opportunity to step into freedom from them. In our time together\, we’ll look directly at our thoughts\, emotions\, and actions to shed light on how these would shift if we weren’t caught in the patterns. What does freedom look and feel like in our human lives? We’ll explore: \n\n Slowing everything down so we can know what’s arising;\n Losing interest in familiar and limiting thoughts;\n Embodying presence beyond any emotions that appear;\n Reflecting on the actions that arise naturally from the spaciousness that remains.\n\nWe’ll bring this understanding into the moments of our everyday lives and practice new ways of being\, infused with freedom and love. \n We come together in the sacred space of loving community for this deep exploration\, including teachings\, conversation\, and Q&A. Bring all of you—your fears\, shame\, questions\, confusion—and joy. All is welcome unconditionally! \n Together\, 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 fear and freedom from fear. Fear is an essential emotion to investigate on the path of awakening…because any remaining belief in the separate self is fueled by fear. If fear rules\, it will limit you in life\, and you’ll find that you’re living a fraction of what is possible for you. You’ll be contracted into thoughts filled with worry and negativity—and miss out on the realization of infinite peace and love. \nPlease register here.

Yet\, the realization of our true nature invites us to turn away from its protective voice. In our gathering together\, we’ll explore how fear shows up in the body and the stories it tells us that limit our expression in life. We’ll investigate to see if the stories that fear tells us are actually true. And if not\, how do we live if we’re not guided by fear? 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?

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. \nThere 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. \nIn 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. \nYou’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. \nWe 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. \nWith 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! \nQuestions?

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. \nThe 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. \n 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? \n 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. \n 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. \nWith 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! \nQuestions?

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. \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. 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?

This is an essential exploration to undertake…because attachment to the contents of our minds distracts us from experiencing the aliveness of our true nature. \nOnce we’re no longer interested in using the mind to define our reality\, we’re immediately present\, open to all that is\, free of mind-created fear and angst. \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… \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 teachings\, conversation\, and Q&A.

And 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’ll learn how to turn toward our experience with acceptance\, compassion\, and care. And we’ll discover the space to realize there is so much more to life than our patterns! \nOur time together includes guided meditation\, teachings\, practical tools\, and heartfelt conversation. We turn our attention inward to find our way through the mind-made limits and the stories that create personal suffering. And discover practical ways to return home to the ground of being…to freedom and liberation… \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?

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\, 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 our 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?

When we take our stand as the essential vibration of life\, we notice two things. First\, a natural overflowing of generosity\, joy\, love\, and expansion we might call bliss. And second\, the edges of the heart that may feel bruised\, scared\, or not ready to trust. \nWe encounter the very human experience of longing for the boundless love that we are and the fear of actually knowing and living it. \nWe gather together in safe and supportive community to courageously explore our innate and infinite capacity for love. We’ll marinate together in the endless field of aliveness that is eternally welcoming of all. And we’ll make space to lovingly turn toward the fears that separate us from this openness. \nMany of us have somehow learned that it’s not safe to love. We turn away from the fulfillment that’s possible and live in stress and contraction.

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 all blinders off\, and bring everything that arises under the microscope of awareness\, integrity\, and truth. 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. You’re not getting something you don’t already have. You’re not fixing what you think might be broken within you. You’re not waiting for divine intervention. \nThe pathless path means that your attention turns inward\, over and over\, opening to all of your inner experience so you can discover that what you’re looking for is already here. When you go beyond the familiar stories and mental patterns\, you find\, shining brilliantly\, the timeless essence of peace\, freedom\, and boundless love. This is you…who you’ve always been despite any beliefs that tell you otherwise. \nCome and explore the pathless path to inner freedom in safe and supportive community. With guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll lovingly open to the mind’s structures that convince you you’re not free and the ever-present possibility of the deepest peace beyond imagination. \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.

We’re open to life\, rather than resisting it. \nOur gathering offers a supportive field of loving connection. Together\, we’ll get curious about what it’s like to live with our minds and hearts unclouded and wide open\, receptive to all that is. With guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll explore the everyday practical possibility of being in love with life. \nAnd we’ll bring our infinite capacity for love and care to the tender and fearful places inside that still need to contract\, hide\, and control. \nCome 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.

These are fear-based programmed ways of being that we learned early in our lives and left us feeling unsafe\, rejected\, unseen\, or disconnected. \nPeople-pleasing\, withdrawal\, needing to be right\, holding grudges\, defensiveness… These are signs of unexamined contractions that are ripe for liberation. \nUntying the knots that lie at the core of our relationship struggles brings openness\, ease\, and space for new and authentic ways of being. We discover we can meet the tender places in ourselves with deep acceptance and care. Then we have the space to open with compassion to the struggles others might be experiencing as well. \nThe intimate connection we all long for unfolds when energy flows freely…and offers a portal into the deepest knowing of infinite oneness beyond our personal identities. \nWith guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll practice creating safe space for deepening connection.

Our natural state\, unclouded by any conditioning\, is infinitely open\, fully free\, and attached to nothing. It’s the pure free-flow of life in which all objects come and go\, with no stickiness whatsoever. \nKnowing this reality\, we live as openness\, available to everything\, with no need for familiar fear-based survival strategies. There’s an open portal beyond separation to wonder\, creativity\, inspired living\, and love. \nYet\, as humans we have the experience of feeling stuck. We believe that we need to keep ourselves safe\, avoid painful feelings\, and limit the ways we express ourselves in life. And these ways of being keeps us locked into habitual reactions that affect our relationships\, our feelings about ourselves\, and the simple enjoyment of everyday life. We wonder if this is all that life has to offer. \nAt our gathering together\, we’ll explore how we end up feeling stuck and ways to be with that feeling. We’ll practice the direct route to freedom by landing squarely in the knowing that we are the open spaciousness in which the mind-made stories that grip us arise—and not the stories themselves. \nAnd we’ll open with curiosity as we turn toward the experience of feeling stuck to discover the treasures it holds and meet all that arises with compassion and deep acceptance. \nWith guided meditation\, teachings\, and conversation\, we’ll illuminate what it’s like to feel stuck…and to be free… Together\, we lovingly embrace our humanness as we expand beyond the known into freedom\, flow\, and deep connection with all of Life.
