SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Liberating the Mind From Its Stories
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nLiberating the Mind From Its Stories \nWednesday\, April 5\, 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. \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 focus for this meeting is on  studying the mind and how it creates the sense of separation. 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. 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\, unconditional welcoming of what is\, and deep connection with all of Life. \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nWednesday\, April 5\, 2022 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\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—Wise Inquiry Into Emotions
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nWise Inquiry Into Emotions \nThursday\, April 27\, 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.

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 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. \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? Please contact Gail here. \nDetails \nThursday\, April 27\, 2022 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.
