About the event
BELOVED,Â
You are invited to awaken into the deepest truth of who you are: Â pure love and freedom within. Â Perhaps you are a frequent meditator, but wish to learn ways to deepen your consistent practice. Â Perhaps you have tried meditation but have felt like you "failed" to meditate because your mind won't become quiet (Hint: you haven't failed). Â Maybe you are looking for a way to begin a commited practice and wish to have a group of like-minded meditators to learn from. Â For all of these reasons, I have decided to create this Sangha for us. Â This is the second series of 6 sessions that I am sharing with my community. Â You are more then welcome to join if you did not take my first series which was "Introduction to Mindfulness Meditaiton". Â When I began with 10 women who took my First Awaken together series, I had no idea how powerfully connected we would become and how much they all wanted to continue...so here we are!Â
Meditation is a way to open up into that which is hidden beneath the layers of our suffering with feelings of inadequacy or competitiveness which has been fostered by our modern western society.  Our modern society has created feelings of unworthiness, self-judgement and the loss of our true nature for so many of us...mindfulness meditation is the way we may begin to accept ourselves for who we are in the most loving and tender way. Through a consistent meditation practice, we begin to access pure joy, liberation and LOVE. Â
In these 6 Sessions we will be discussing and meditating on the following topics:
          ~Meditation on the Body and Breath
          ~R.A.I.N. Meditation
          ~Meditation for Self-Love
          ~Meditation on the 3 Domains of
- Forgiveness
          ~Metta or Loving-kindess Meditation
          ~Meditation on Gratitude
          ~Meditation for a Joyful Heart
We will be commited together to meet Tuesdays for 1.75 hours at my home for 6 weeks. Â During these gatherings, I will be sharing specific meditation practices to culitvate your own meditation practice, reduce your stress, and access pure acceptance and love for yourself and for all others. Â The safe container we create together will also invite us to share with one another our own personal experiences and challenges throughout this commited practice. Â My hope is that together, we form a bond that will continue to grow and that this Sangha will continue in some way moving forward.
About Me:
I am nearly done with my second  and last year of an intensive and immersive 2 year training program to become a Certified Professional Meditation Teacher with mentors Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield as my guides.  I first began this program simply as a way to deepen my own commitment to my meditaiton practice and to heal the ways I continue to suffer in my own life. This program has been a potent, life-changing experience and I wish to serve as many folks as I can with the lessons I have learned.  Our previous Awaken Together Sangha was so rich with learning for myself and we all grew so close, I had to it again but, so that some of these women will come along with me, I am offering new practices and new prosprectives to awaken the hearts of us all.
This Awaken Together Women's Sangha and is part of my 2nd practicum portion for the course curriculum.  At the end of our 6 weeks, I will also be hosting a day long meditiaton retreat for all of us which will be a culmination of all that we have learned and a deeply immersive experience into meditation.  Retreat is an important portion of a consistent meditation practice. The retreat date will be Saturday, September 17th, 2022. Â
May we come together in love, kindness and peace and may we encircle one another with care along this journey towards our own liberation through meditation.
With gratitude and love,
Heather
