You are invited to a satsang with Beth Miller where we will explore spiritual awakening and vulnerability.
Together, let’s dive into what we know in our essence . . . opening to an ever-deepening realization that what we are in the truest sense is an inside job – an inward surrendering of anything and everything that is in the way of knowing, living, being and expressing our true nature of loving being-ness.

Gail Brenner ~ Who Are You? The Essential Question for Healing and Awakening (In-Person)
The essential question in nondual inquiry is: “Who am I?” At the root of personal suffering lies the belief that who we are is a person with a history, story, preferences, fears, and a sense of lack. As long as we identify as this core belief, we will view ourselves, others, and situations through the lens of these limited filters.
Suffering subsides when our identity disconnects from the contents of our minds. We lose interest in our habits of thinking. We stop going to our familiar stories to know who we are or how to act. And we can feel the emotions in our bodies so they begin to soften their grip......

When we know that we are no thing, we are free to be as we are – both as spacious, loving awareness and as unique, individuated being. Through silent and guided meditations, a talk, meditative inquiry, and experiential conversations in community, we will explore seeing and feeling through who we have mis-taken our self to be and discovering what remains.

The heart holds a doorway that can help us to embody truth, know the deeper intimacy of non-separation, and open into a clarity that is felt as much as it is seen.
What the traditions call divine love is not merely a feeling that arises in awakening. It is the welcoming aliveness of our very nature.
In this gathering, Sarah Taylor explores the heart as fulcrum: the place where insight can be found, deepened, and lived. Where loving awareness, brought openly to what is here, completes something that clear seeing alone leaves unfinished..... LEARN MORE HERE

Peter Russell ~ Enjoying Meditation: Having It Be a Delight Rather than a Chore (In-Person)
For many beginners, meditation can feel like an uphill battle — a never-ending struggle to quiet the thinking mind and focus the attention. It’s easy to walk away discouraged, convinced that meditation demands more effort and discipline than you can muster.
In Peter’s approach, we don’t need to control the mind or try to remain present. Instead he offers practices and insights that allow the mind to settle down naturally. Meditation then becomes not only easier and more effective, but also more enjoyable........ LEARN MORE HERE
