The Doorway to FREEDOM is Always Open ~ ECSTATIC BREATHWORK This Sunday~ 8/1 @The Hub

Sunday, August 1st ~ 5:30pm-7pm ~ The Hub (West LA) 

The Doorway to FREEDOM is Always Open

In any given day, the moment is brimming with doorways to recognizing and experiencing deeper FREEDOM within.  So often the ego keeps us reaching outside to control and manipulate circumstances and interactions from a place of insecurity, a place of hidden constriction around the Heart.

This Sunday, we’ll look at these simple doorways (practices) to opening the Heart and stepping into a place of Spaciousness, Ease, Freedom, and abiding Self-Love that expands exponentially with Attention and Practice.

Breath Deep. Heart Awake. Body Soft. Attention Clear and Present.

Join Us.

I Love You More Than You Know

I Love You More Than You Know


There are moments
When the veil
So thin
The gossamer 
So fine
My Heart convulsing
With the 
Motion and
Emotion
In the plexus of 
Our humanity.
In a complete exhale
I release.
Inspiration
Rising with 
Prana.
A fresh breath, and
With it New Life.
Amen.

Gratitude: An Explosion of Joy ~ ECSTATIC BREATHWORK This Friday~ 7/16, 8-9:30pm @The Hub

Friday, July 16th ~ 8:00pm-9:30pm ~ The Hub (West LA) 

Gratitude ~ An Explosion of Joy

One of the points we’ve been working with for some time is this understanding of becoming one with the object of your focus, (ie; you merge with whatever you meditate on and give your attention to).  If you track your attention throughout any given day, and take note of where it goes, what do you see?  The Gratitude I’m pointing to is a radically powerful pathway for focusing your attention on the Truth of what you, and all of us actually Are.  Joy is a quality and an expression of your True Nature.  Gratitude is a form of active meditation on Joy.  Through the consistent practice of Gratitude, you will naturally become more Joyful...and this Joy will give rise to more Gratitude.  As you become more Grateful and Joyful, you will naturally attract more reasons to be Grateful and Joyful.   

Practices are active demonstrations of your intentions.  This Friday night, with the support of ECSTATIC BREATHWORK, we’ll dive deeper into the core of Gratitude and Joy and more deeply anchor your commitment to the practices that reveal this Gratitude and Joy within.
