THE PRACTICE OF PRESENCE
THE HEART OF THE NEW SPIRITUALITY
Presence is the very heart of spirituality, psychological healing, loving relationships, and vital embodiment. It is your very nature. Come learn a simple but profound practice that is grounded in the body and breath, centered in the heart, and held in primary awareness.
In each session we gather to open to Presence through a tune-up with sound, a check-in of how we are, followed by a primary practice of Presence. Then we explore some aspect of Presence to deepen and enhance our capacity for Presence in integral living. These might include mindful Presence, spiritual Presence, relational Presence, psychological Presence, or embodied Presence, all of which are One Presence. Afterward, we interact informally but consciously in Presence.
This is a weekly drop-in group, with no previous experience required. Meetings are free of charge, but bring your presence to share. Bring tea and snacks for afterward, if you wish.
