SUMMARY:Jeannie Zandi ~ Love's Wild Heart: When Human Meets Divine (In-Person & Livestream)
DESCRIPTION:A Year to Love: Claiming What You’re Really Here For and Living It\nJanuary 2025 Bay Area Events with Jeannie Zandi\nJoin spiritual teacher Jeannie Zandi for a series of Bay Area gatherings (in-person and livestream) exploring how to unite our humanity and divinity\, becoming love’s instrument in an aching world.

What if 2025 was the year you stopped running from your humanness and discovered it as the very gateway to your essence? As the familiar structures of our world shake and shift\, we’re called to embody a love that can hold it all–our messiness and our majesty\, our limitations and our limitlessness. We’ll explore practical ways to heal the ancient split between humanness and divinity\, discovering how our very humanity\, fully embraced\, reveals itself as love’s perfect instrument. This is the time we’ve been preparing for–to live as the marriage of heaven and earth\, right here\, right now. \nThe world doesn’t need more spiritual bypassing or human perfection – it needs your whole heart\, where human and divine unite in love’s endless dance. Let 2025 be the year you come all the way home to who you really are. \nJeannie Zandi is a spiritual teacher who supports people to integrate awakening into every aspect of human experience and to bring their heart’s offering to life. Known for her potent blend of spiritual mastery and grounded humanness\, she creates transformational spaces with fierce tenderness\, irreverent wisdom\, and unwavering presence\, inspiring students to embody their deepest truth in everyday life. \nHer gift for inviting people into resting\, rooted presence evokes a deep meeting with oneself and reality. Her disarming humor and directness invite us beyond mere intellectual understanding into direct experience. Through silent and guided meditation\, spontaneous talks\, and authentic dialogue\, Jeannie hosts a space of clarity and warmth where the richness of experience can be explored safely and innermost questions met fully. \nAt the heart of her teaching is the recognition that life itself is the ground through which we are purified as vessels for divine expression. She guides students to embrace every moment—from mundane to challenging—as fuel for awakening\, transforming daily life into a practice of embodied truth. Her work bridges the mystical with the practical\, moving beyond abstract concepts into fully embodied awakening. Jeannie calls students to mature into capable\, authentic expressions of love and truth\, serving the whole with wisdom and courage. This devotional path invites alignment with the divine\, where life’s challenges become opportunities to manifest love in action. \nwww.jeanniezandi.com \nFor January 15th\nSuggested donation: $15 to $30\nNo one turned away for lack of funds.\nPre-registration for In-Person attandance closes at Midnight on Jan. 14 (the night before event)\nPre-registration is encouraged\, but you can also just show up & pay at door.
