Ajaya Sommers ~ Awake Attachment™ Intimacy as a Path of Embodiment and Awakening
A 2-hour experiential introduction with Ajaya Sommers
When the separate self dissolves - and awakens to ones innate self, in deep meditation, in nature, in love - what remains is not emptiness. It is intimacy. With everything.
What we long for most - a holy, primal intimacy with life itself, with ourselves, with other humans, with the more-than-human world - is also what we subconsciously fear most. And the very places we feel most broken, most defended, most disconnected, are not obstacles to that intimacy. They can be the doorway into it....... LEARN MORE HERE

Awakening reveals what we are beneath and beyond the separate, conditioned self. Yet over time, many of us discover a deeper invitation: allowing the fullness of our humanity to belong within what has been realized.
In this experiential gathering, we’ll explore the transformative power of resting in a welcoming heart. As resistance softens, more of our experience is welcomed into loving presence, including the aspects we’ve struggled to accept, as well as the deeper gifts and aliveness waiting to be lived......

Ishita Sharma ~ The Feminine Mystical Path – Homecoming (women only)
The feminine and masculine paths illuminate and engage different aspects of energy, attention and anatomy in remembering Wholeness. A man's body and a woman's body are designed differently, and that has ramifications on the maturation of our mystical paths. Popular wisdom traditions are skewed by a primarily masculine lens.
Together we will explore what embodiment beyond awakening entails uniquely for our feminine incarnations, learning from and honoring the female mystics who have walked before us, while mining the gold hidden in our own unique blueprints.
This one is just for women, join us to explore the fullness of your expression with a group that will invite and receive it as such..... LEARN MORE HERE

The power to heal lies within the embodied presence of our own Being. That, and only that, can transform and free our fixed and distorted identity that causes our mental and physical health issues. The false identity cannot change itself. True healing comes from something beyond that, but not separate. It is in the meeting of our infinite being and our finite humanness that the alchemy of true healing takes place.
This healing can include changing our lifestyle, relationships, diet, taking medication, therapy, etc. What is important is we are moved from the infinite wisdom of Presence, not from the separate identity trying to fix it. We rely on the Presence of Being to inform our body mind and to meet our mental, emotional and physical pain without resistance. This is how we embody the Presence and heal our human wounding.....

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.
John Prendergast, Ph.D is a spiritual teacher, retired psychotherapist, and retired Adjunct Professor of Psychology at CIIS, well known for his pioneering work in integrating non-dual wisdom and psychotherapy...... LEARN MORE HERE
