Lynn Marie Lumiere ~ Empowered Embodiment: Nondual Healing of our Human Wounding
Step into your true power and heal across all dimensions of human experience
Awakening to an infinite source of Love does not in itself resolve all our human wounding and trauma. It is through embodying that Love that we become empowered to bring about true change and healing in all dimensions of our life. This occurs as we meet our pain, hurt, and wounding in/as awakened Presence, undivided. It is that simple. Yet, our body-mind often needs skilled support to build a capacity for allowing that simple, yet powerful, nondual healing to manifest.....

Dorothy Hunt ~ Honoring the Life and Teachings of Ramana Maharshi ~ Retreat Day (In-Person)
Ramana Maharshi has been a light shining in the darkness for countless seekers of Truth. In this silent retreat day honoring his life and teachings, we will also consider ways that his method of Self-Inquiry has been misunderstood, and ways in which some seekers make “Silence” an object rather than realizing its continual presence in everyday life. Included in this day will be video clips of his life and darshan.
For Ramana, “All that is required to realize the Self is to be still.” Can we be still long enough to notice what is here when we stop trying to get “there?”....... LEARN MORE HERE

Let’s Talk about Power, Abuse and Spiritual Bypassing:
How Spirituality Can Help Us Address Harm and Create Change
An Engaged Nonduality Event
With Miranda Macpherson and Lisa Ferguson
Engaged Nonduality recognizes that awareness and response are not separate. The same ground of being that reveals our shared nature also moves as a compassionate, embodied response. In this view, the crises of our time—including racism and systemic injustice—are not distractions from awakening but invitations to live it.
We are in a moment of cultural reckoning about abuse and power. The Epstein files reveal the way power and abuse, misogyny and racism, have been part of the underlying structure of our society.
Nondual teachings could be used to avoid these topics, or to retreat from taking action. However, they also have great potential to inform how we can skillfully interrupt harm and foster cultural change that benefits us all...... LEARN MORE HERE

Ajaya Sommers ~ Being Here: From Emotional Reactivity to Embodied Intimacy
A gathering to settle the nervous system, open the heart, and deepen connection with yourself, others, and life.
....When the nervous system perceives overwhelm, it naturally organizes around protection. Attention narrows. Reactivity increases. Even the most sincere spiritual insight can become difficult to embody, because the organism itself is working simply to maintain stability.
Yet genuine healing and awakening require the opposite: a body that feels safe enough to stay...... LEARN MORE HERE

It's so easy to be distracted by the mind and caught up in its games of futurizing and strategizing, only to be left depleted, lost and without an anchor to our deeper presence.

A Book Launch and Celebration for ‘Infinite Awakening: A Guide to Nondual Wisdom and the Pathless Path’
A New Book by Stephan Bodian. With a Foreword by Adyashanti.
The great awakening for which we may spend a lifetime searching is actually quite simple: Everything is just the way it is, an innately perfect, sacred, and indivisible whole, whose essence is empty, conscious, and filled with love. The recognition that this is what I am, not the dream character I take myself to be, frees us from a lifetime of suffering and identification and awakens us to our inherent happiness and peace of mind. Yet the journey to this realization and its embodiment may be infinitely challenging as the result of our psychological complexity and the difficulties we face as individuals. This is one of the core messages of my new book, Infinite Awakening........ LEARN MORE HERE
