SUMMARY:Shakti Caterina Maggi ~ You and I\, Identity and Relationship from Silence
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to participate in this intensive seminar where we will explore the authentic nature of our identity as unitary consciousness and the modalities of relating to others from this perspective. We will use perception as a means of inquiry\, and Satsang with dialogues and Q&As to deepen and comprehend fully what we will have discovered through experience. \nShakti Caterina Maggi has been sharing a message of awakening to our true nature as One Consciousness since 2003. Her approach to Self-Realization is very contemporary and accessible\, and is profoundly in tune with Advaita and the non-dual Tantric traditions. She reveals the real possibility of seeing what we truly are\, and embodying it in our everyday lives with clarity\, wisdom\, and humor. \nShe was recently asked to contribute to the anthology On the Mystery of Being: Contemporary Insights into the Convergence of Science and Spirituality edited by Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo\, the founders of the Science and Non-Duality (SAND) Conference. She teaches in Europe\, Canada and the USA\, offering satsang\, seminars and retreats. \n“The true Heart is the space in which we can deeply meet ourselves and the entire world. The way to the Heart is an embodied Consciousness\, in which we are divinely human.” \nwww.shakticaterinamaggi.com \nSunday\, Feb. 23rd\, 10:00am – 5:00 pm\nSliding Scale: $60 – $120 (cash or check)\nNo pre-registration.\nNo one turned away for lack of funds. \nLunch Break:\nWelcome to bring your lunch\, and there are also various places near the Berkeley venue\, to go out to eat.\nNote: Per venue policy\, only vegetarian food is allowed on premises at Chochmat HaLev

SUMMARY:Lynn Marie Lumiere\, MFT  ~ If the Buddha had Trauma: Being Present with Stress Activation
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the history of spirituality\, very little has been taught about how to be present with stress activation in our nervous system. In Buddha’s day that was not even considered. In fact\, it is only in recent decades that this has been understood at all. At this time\, life on planet Earth is stressful for everyone\, and most of us have experienced trauma in greater or lesser degrees. This can make both our meditation practice and our awakening/embodiment process more challenging. \nNondual wisdom teaches us that awakening involves being present with “what is.” However\, when it comes to stress and trauma that may require additional\, skillful support\, which will be discussed and demonstrated. This webinar is also an introduction to a 4 week course\, “Awakening with Trauma\,” that Lynn Marie is teaching beginning February 24th. The course will go into more depth about trauma and how to be with that as we awaken. This webinar will be primarily focused on working with the participants experientially.  \nLynn Marie Lumiere\, MFT is a nondual psychotherapist\, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner\, and author. She is the co-author of The Awakening West and is a contributing author to The Sacred Mirror\, as well as the author of Awakened Relating: A Guide to Embodying Undivided Love in Intimate Relationships. Lynn Marie has been a student of Adyashanti for over 20 years.
