|Recurring Event (See all)

What if coming home to yourself isn't about becoming someone better, but discovering how to be more fully here—in your body, your heart, your relationships, and your life?

Even when we recognize something profoundly true about our nature, familiar patterns of protection can continue to shape how we feel, relate, and respond to life. Through somatic practice, guided inquiry, and relational exploration, we will discover what becomes possible when we meet our experience with curiosity and care..... LEARN MORE HERE

John J. Prendergast, Ph.D. ~ “Being Absolutely No One and No Thing” (In-Person)

Saturday, December 5, 2026 @ 10:30am-5:00pm (Pacific Time)
First Presbyterian Church of San Rafael, 1510 Fifth Ave
San Rafael, CA 94901

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

Coming Home to Yourself
Freedom and Fulfillment in This Human Life

An Experiential, In-Person Day with Lisa Schumacher & Ajaya Sommers

What if the fulfillment you long for is not something you need to find or become, but something you can discover in the depths of your own being, within this very body and this very life?

Together, Lisa Schumacher and Ajaya Sommers invite you into an exploration of what becomes possible when awareness meets your lived experience with openness, attunement, and care. Through Lisa’s skill and guidance in direct inquiry and safe sacred space, and Ajaya’s facilitation of Continuum—a somatic practice of breath, sound, movement, and touch—we will explore together how the recognition of your true nature can permeate your embodied experience.......

Jeannie Zandi ~ Human, After All – Making Peace with Being a Person

Sunday, December 20, 2026 @ 10:00am-12:00noon (Pacific Time)

We may awaken to ourselves as vast, timeless, peaceful, and untouched, only to discover that the human being is still... human. Hurt, irritated, confused, tired, reactive, and occasionally spectacularly unreasonable. Spirituality can leave us with the "should" that if we were doing it right, much of this would have disappeared by now.

In this two-hour gathering, we’ll explore the difference between freedom from identification with our humanness and freedom from humanness itself..... LEARN MORE HERE

John Prendergast ~ Opening Up, Lining Up, and Lighting Up: The Subtle Somatic Dimension of Self-Recognition ~ 6-Part Online Series

Saturday, January 9, 2027 @ 9:00am - 11:30am (Pacific Time), part of a 6-Part Series, includes Jan. 9, 16, 23, 30 and Feb. 6 and 13

In this six week course, through talks, meditation, inquiries, sensing, and experiential conversations, we will explore the role of the subtle body in the process of self-recognition or awakening.

While the knowing of our true nature as open, lucid, loving awareness can emerge spontaneously unmediated by any sensation, feeling or thought, often our body responds on a subtle level by opening up, lining up, and lighting up. Since the body is a dynamic expression of our fundamental nature, it also opens as our true nature flowers. The more we are attuned with our body, the more easily we can sense this......
