SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Compassionate Inquiry Into Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nCompassionate Inquiry Into Resistance \nThursday\, January 2\, 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. \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 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 get to know how and when you resist. \nWhat is resistance? It’s an activity of the agitated mind that says a resounding\, “NO!” to your present moment experience. It’s a desire to cling to some experiences and push others away—a desire for things to be different than they are. \nWe hold strategies of resistance with tenderness and care\, 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 \nThursday\, January 2\, 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.  \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\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. She brings to this work years of experience with individuals and groups and is known for creating the safety and trust needed for this deeper exploration. \nimage

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—Resting in Being

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 resting in being… \nBy cultural norms and conditioning\, this time of transitioning to a new year prompts a reflection of the past and a view into the future. Yet\, past and future are created intervals of time that exist only in the mind. \nNo matter what the calendar says\, there is only this moment\, now\, free and uncaused\, completely fresh and new\, emerging from and infused with love. In any moment\, we can turn away from our minds to experience the full aliveness of our true nature…and rest 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\nIn our time together we’ll explore: how do you know this deepest truth? What gets in the way of knowing it? \nWe’ll simply be together. Whether we meditate\, explore within\, or share in conversation\, we’ll recognize the powerful presence of pure being…infinitely aware…eternally free…the source of all… \nCome with your questions\, reports\, and curiosity. What remains when attachment to the material reality of time and space falls away? Discover the deepest silence… \nAll are welcome to join this deep and heartfelt investigation. I look forward to being with you! \nQuestions? Please contact Gail here. \nPlease register here.

SUMMARY:Coming Home Together Online Gathering—The Art of Intimate and Authentic Relationships
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home Together Online Gathering:\nThe Art of Intimate and Authentic Relationships \nWednesday\, January 15\, 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 the art of intimate and authentic connecting in our relationships. And yes\, it’s an art! We’ll open to the messiness\, confusion\, and ever present opportunity for presence and heart. \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 the limiting story that tells us we’re not good enough or need to be in control. 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. \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 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\, January 15\, 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.

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 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.

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\, January 29\, 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 what’s present—emotions\, thought patterns\, sensations and energies in the body—we become aware of 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—I had no idea those experiences 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 Inner awareness as a way of life transforms everything—your relationships\, how you make choices in life\, how you show up with yourself when you’re triggered\, how you relate to your early history\, your knowing of freedom from the sense of the separate self. \n And 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. The boundary between inner and outer falls away\, as everything just is. We return here over and over. \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\, January 29\, 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.
