Resonance & Embodied Relating
With Jason von Halle
Online, via Zoom
5 Thursdays, March 12 – April 9, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM Pacific
As we inhabit our bodies more subtly and deeply, we discover the ability to let our relational life be guided more by resonance and contact with our own truth than by conditioned strategies for creating and maintaining a sense of connection. In this series, we will deepen our internal contact, practice relational attunements and become more intimate with our own needs and sensitivities around embodied relating. Supported by Realization Process practices and a continuously honed group container, this is an invitation to experience the richness and healing potential that come when we include our relational life in our exploration of these subtler dimensions of being.
Cost: $175

Unconditional: An Embodied Realization Collective for Parents - Free
With Margaret Brittingham and Marijana Jozic
Online, via Zoom
Last Tuesday of the Month, 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM Pacific
This is a special online space to support the nondual realization of parents who aspire to nurture the whole-being essence of their children. As single mothers we have found the realization process to be deeply supportive on our unique parenting journeys, fostering an unconditional relational foundation between us that can be hard to find in modern culture and the dominant parenting paradigm. We want to extend an invitation to other parents on this path who long for this depth of resonant connection and support and who feel a deep call to realize their true power as parents, to practice the meditative and embodiment exercises from the realization process. Together we will co-create a circle of true belonging and kinship to support our collective awakening and embodied transformation on the parenting journey.
