Upcoming Events › Online Event

Coming together in a space that is slow, curious, generous and kind, we will explore the nature of flow and ourselves, learning by contrasting in our own experience what coherence is and isn't, what hinders and augments it.  We will engage processes that augment access to coherent fields at various levels of being, becoming and belonging.

Join us in a series of 3 facilitated experiential conversations to examine flow/coherence at 3 levels of field: self, shared and universal, to strengthen your capacity to access it at will.

Each call will build on the last while also standing alone as a wholesome offering in itself.

As much as attending the whole series is beneficial, you are welcome to register for any number of calls, even if you haven't joined the previous ones.

Part 1: Inner Coherence: authenticity, self-alignment, how I am being (May 15th)

Part 2: Relational Coherence: mutuality, how we are being, within and between us. (June 10th)

Part 3: Universal Coherence: interconnectedness, synchronization with the rhythm of the whole. (July 1st)

Join like-hearted others to play with friendly curiosity in a field of shared intent.

ON EACH CALL WE WILL:

• Explore contrast between discordance and coherence, learning from our own experience.
• Practice an experiential somatic meditation.
• Experience the healing power of inner and group coherence.
• Have space to share, ask questions.
• Learn about deeper upcoming offerings to engage and answer your inner call to coherence.

In times of accelerated growth, communities of care are balm for the soul. And a community is formed when we come together with authenticity, openness and respect. This will be a series of such calls.

Join Pamela and your fellow sages for a four part satsang retreat.

We will invite any tension between the opposites within to balance and self adjust by meeting them respectfully and inviting them to know themselves. Only realization resolves human conditioning back to healthy balance and stability. Even perceived threat, habitual opposition, stress and separation can root and return to natural clarity and relaxation.

When we function as the sage we are, everything self liberates and balances. Allowing us to live as wise love, flow, peace and ease.

Pamela Wilson evokes through dialogue, inquiry and her very presence the qualities of unconditional love and radical acceptance. She is celebrated for her ability to open the heart and create a space in which long-cherished struggles and notions about one’s identity relax. Featured in the book Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Wisdom, Pamela is at her best in heart-felt dialogue, so please bring your questions!

In Rumi’s field, ‘beyond ideas of wrong doing of right doing’, prior to concepts and convictions, (however luminous and spiritual), the Tantric Kashmir approach invites us to listen to our felt experience without any aims or objectives. Here we simply recognize the geography of separation, taste the contour of our limits, see the positions of security, the lines of physical and psychological defences expressed in our convictions and mirrored in the tension held in our body.

This listening becomes a burning altar to which thoughts and resistances are offered as they arise. Tactile sensitivity gently blossoms. Emotions unfold fully as life’s waves, delivering their energetic message whilst burning away the agendas and leaving the body awash with sensitivity and availability.

About Ellen:
Ellen’s deepest intuition was confirmed when she met her teacher in the non-dual tradition, Francis Lucille. Hearing his words, she recognised the eternal, limitless and universal nature of our shared reality. Over the years, this understanding has continued to unfold and to touch all levels of experience.

At the very same time, Ellen has never ceased to delve into the depths of her human experience, seen and unseen, thirsting for a wholeness and connectedness which appeared to be lost or obscured. This unstoppable quest brought her to therapy, Jungian workshops (and later Jungian analysis), Dream Work, Authentic Movement and creative writing.

More and more, she senses that each of our lives is a journey of revelation and integration, including its darker crossings, through which the face of truth can shine uniquely and anew, wedding us to our direct experience and connecting us to the great family of creation.

Join Jeannie and friends for a special Father’s Day call to explore the symbolism and actuality of father – from God the Father to our own dads and all the beauties and challenges of all that!

Jeannie’s gift for inviting people to join her in resting and rooted presence evokes a deep meeting with oneself and reality. Within that, Jeannie’s humor and iconoclasm serve to bring people into an understanding that is beyond the intellectual. Through silent and guided meditation, spontaneous talks and exchange with participants, Jeannie will host a space of clarity and warmth where the richness of relating can be explored safely and your innermost questions met fully.

Jeannie Zandi is the director of Living as Love, a nonprofit organization dedicated to seeding a culture of the Heart on the planet, inspiring, teaching and supporting people to live from their essence as Love. A year before the birth of her daughter, Jeannie was plunged into a dark night of the soul that culminated in a radical shift of consciousness. She is known for her fearless clarity, tender mercy toward humanness, and a juicy, poetic and often humorous style that draws from Advaita Vedanta, Sufism, Christian mysticism and the ongoing revelation of fully engaged living.

What if we inquired into our common perceptions and attitudes of suffering. What if we stop trying to fix, get rid of or heal suffering. Could suffering itself be a doorway to greater intimacy with life, each other and ourselves. How would it be for us to come together in gentleness and yield to our precious human lives. In this 2 hour meeting we will have a short meditation, a talk on suffering and an opportunity for exchanges. Come settle in this compassionate space and unfold with us.

Chesaray offers courses, sessions, and retreats based in non-duality, embodied awakening, and the healing arts. Chesaray's search for “What is Real?” began as early as she can remember. Life has always been her greatest teacher. Experiences as a teen drove her into an unavoidable contemplation of grief, God, and death. Her university studies in Philosophy of Mind and Buddhism led her to study abroad in India, where she set her heart on embodying freedom. She was gifted with a non-dual awakening at 22 with Jon Bernie that lifted a tremendous amount of unconscious suffering from her shoulders, and has since experienced the fire of that opening guiding her life. Exploration of the psyche, soul, and soma has led her into ongoing training and practice in meditation, conscious movement, bodywork, psycho-therapeutic modalities and a devotion to learning from life experience. She descended into a dark night of the Soul for many years and she is left with an abiding experience of the heart of Being and a gift of healing Grace.

Everybody contains inside of them an inner spiritual guidance system, which when aligned with, helps orient one to following the path that best serves your awakening. Learning how to open in trust to your inner knowing, is much of what the spiritual journey is about.
