This event is an invitation to dedicate a whole day to deepening into the stillness of being in a field of pure\, unconditional love alongside like-minded community. The day will consist of guided and silent meditations as well as Q&A sessions where you will have the opportunity to explore whatever arises for you in the moment. \nLouise will support you to rest your attention as the aware witness while consciously including and feeling the experience of the body as alive sensations. This practice\, which Louise calls ‘Embodied Awareness\,’ supports the direct recognition of one’s true nature through self-inquiry as well as the integration of unprocessed energies and emotions held in the body. When employed with consistency this practice allows one to live fully in presence in an integrated way and to become a vessel through which higher consciousness can flow more freely\, bringing joy to every aspect of life. \nYou will be supported to surrender fully into the now\, dis-identify from the conceptual self and open up to your true nature\, pure consciousness\, to discover an ever-present dimension of peace. \nWhatever emotions or sensations arise in the body will be met with unconditional love under Louise’s gentle guidance\, allowing for deep healing and transformation to take place on the level of form. \nLouise Kay was born in the UK. After graduating from university she worked as an English teacher for 15 years\, and during this time began to question the deeper meaning of life. This led her to the path of spirituality\, where she found a strong resonance with the teachings of non-duality. \nIn her early thirties Louise felt a strong call to visit India\, where she experienced a profound spiritual awakening. In the years that followed she experienced a deepening and integration of her initial spiritual awakening and as she opened more to this dimension of being a new form of expression revealed itself from deep within her heart. \nLouise is passionate about supporting people to live a life of presence and unconditional love. Her greatest joy is to sit together in presence and gently hold space for all emotions\, all sensations and all experiences which arise in the moment in order to support the integration of unresolved energies and allow the unfolding of the divine in all who feel the call.\nExplorations are usually focused around self-inquiry\, the release of limiting beliefs and the integration of unprocessed emotions and energies. \nMore about Louise: www.louisekay.net \nThe meeting will be from 10:30am to 4:30pm\, with a break for lunch.\nBring your own lunch\, or feel free to eat out or pickup prepared food (various places nearby). \nPre-registration is NOT required for In-Person Attendance.\nPlenty of space at this venue.
