How We Work...
Through a mix of short talks, practical experiential processes, combined with sharing in small groups and in the larger group, to explore, assimilate, and embody, through direct knowing, in our whole being.
Key Topics and Themes
- Living Awareness – the abiding realization of silent Source of Presence, wordlessly living life within and through ourselves and all things.
- The Way of Unfolding: the natural process of evolution manifesting over time – in the cosmos, in nature, in our societies, and in our lives
- Understanding our development through the multi-levelled unfolding of the processes of change, learning, and growth
- The Four Key Avenues to Living Awareness:
- Turning within to the Heart of Being – Awareness Meditation
- Energetic release to open and free the bodymind – Energy Meditation, free movement, and innerdance
- Awakening through inquiry – exploring and uncovering the true Self through Conversation on the Edge of Silence
- Embracing wholeness through deepening relation and resonance with the Other – in nature, in our lives, and with each other
- Grace and gratitude: the power of prayer and offering to soften the heart
