Jeannie Zandi ~ Standing for the Heart: Activism Beyond Division

Saturday, February 28, 2026 @ 10:00am-12:00noon (Pacific Time)

Many of us feel a deep call to stand for what we love, yet feel uncertain how to move in a world shaped by conflict, speed, and polarization. Our hearts want to participate, to protect, to contribute. And yet, we may feel slowed down by resistance, confusion, fear of harm or lethargy. While we don't want to move from division, we also don't want to sit passively by while things we care about are harmed.

Jeannie Zandi is a nondual spiritual teacher and guide for embodied awakening, inviting students to fully inhabit their human lives with presence, clarity, and love..... LEARN MORE HERE

Jeannie Zandi ~ Standing for the Heart: Activism Beyond Division

Saturday, February 28, 2026 @ 10:00am-12:00noon (Pacific Time)

Many of us feel a deep call to stand for what we love, yet feel uncertain how to move in a world shaped by conflict, speed, and polarization. Our hearts want to participate, to protect, to contribute. And yet, we may feel slowed down by resistance, confusion, fear of harm or lethargy. While we don't want to move from division, we also don't want to sit passively by while things we care about are harmed.

This gathering is an exploration of activism rooted in the heart. Together we will look at the inner obstacles that keep us silent, paralyzed or scattered, and will explore our motives, weed out division and make room for the heart's true stand.

Jeannie Zandi is a non-dual spiritual teacher and guide for embodied awakening, inviting students to fully inhabit their human lives with presence, clarity, and love. Known for her fierce tenderness, irreverent wisdom, and unwavering presence, she creates powerful spaces for transformation, where truth is met in the raw, and awakening moves beyond concept into lived reality.

John Astin ~ Everything is the Doorway

Sunday, March 1, 2026 @ 10:00am-11:30am (Pacific Time)

The largely consensus human view is that our thoughts about reality are essentially the same as reality, what psychologists term, “cognitive fusion.” But is that really true? Do our experiences actually conform to the ideas and beliefs we hold about them?

Through a series of meditative inquiries and dialogue, psychologist and spiritual teacher John Astin invites us into a deep dive into this question, exploring the nature of what’s appearing experientially to discover how it is not just those special, “peak” experiences that lie beyond the reach of our concepts and descriptions, but every experience......

John Astin ~ Everything is the Doorway

Sunday, March 1, 2026 @ 10:00am-11:30am (Pacific Time)

The largely consensus human view is that our thoughts about reality are essentially the same as reality, what psychologists term “cognitive fusion.” But is that really true? Do our experiences actually conform to the ideas and beliefs we hold about them?

Through a series of meditative inquiries and dialogue, John Astin invites us into a deep dive into this question, exploring the nature of what’s appearing experientially. This discovery reveals the most profound freedom, the realization that every moment—even the ones we conventionally think of as problems—is a doorway into the inconceivable miracle of life itself.

John Astin is a spiritual teacher and psychologist, the author of five books exploring the nature of reality, and also a singer, songwriter and recording artist with seven CDs of original spiritual-contemplative music. John holds a PhD in health psychology, is an internationally acclaimed scholar in the field of mind-body medicine, and a professor of counseling psychology at Santa Clara University.

Sunday, March 15, 2026 @ 9:00am-11:00am (Pacific Time)

Everything you ever wanted to know about spiritual liberation but never had an enlightened friend to ask! In this session, we’ll begin with a grounding and uplifting guided meditation and then move into a clear, experiential teaching followed by an open Q&A.

Together, we’ll explore the universal foundation beneath all practices and techniques—the simple, direct truth they’re all pointing to. I’ll share insights that illuminate this essential presence and help you recognize your own true nature in real time.

We’ll also look at what it actually means to live from that recognition: how to embody it, integrate it fully, and let it transform your inner and outer life........LEARN MORE HERE

Ishita Sharma ~ Slow Space: Vernal Equinox

Saturday, March 21, 2026 @ 10:00am - 12:00pm (Pacific Time)

The vernal equinox marks perfect balance between light and dark, night and day. In yogic sciences, this is a potent threshold assisting clarity and balance. It is a time when alignment comes easily, when inner coherence can be established before movement begins.

Join us to align the energies of the vernal equinox as the Earth undergoes transformation, inviting your own. Together we'll mark the seasonal turn within us, and use it to reap the benefits of the possibilities it brings...... LEARN MORE HERE

Dorothy Hunt ~ In the Wholeness of Being – Can Anything Be Excluded?

Saturday, April 11, 2026 @ 10:00am-12:00pm (Pacific Time)

In this online exploration with Dorothy Hunt, we will look at how—before, and even after authentic awakenings or powerful glimpses—the conditioned mind imagines only certain thoughts, feelings, behaviors, etc. should arise and not others. Egoic thought wants only the good, the beautiful and the true to be the experience of life. But life is whole, and its expression in form is constantly flowing, continually changing. The Light that illuminates our shadows, our joys and our sufferings, holds our freedom.....
