Through meditation\, teaching\, and group exploration\, Jeannie guides us through the ancient journey of reuniting human and divine–not as an abstract concept\, but as a lived reality. We’ll discover how to heal the primordial split between spirit and matter\, heaven and earth\, right here in our own hearts.

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 16th\nSuggested donation: $15 to $30\nNo one turned away for lack of funds.\nPre-registration for In-Person attandance closes at Midnight on Jan. 15 (the night before event)\nPre-registration is encouraged\, but you can also just show up & pay at door.
