New Year, New Moon, New Start ~ ECSTATIC BREATHWORK in West Hollywood, Wed 1/5 7:30-9pm



  New Year, New Moon, New Start ~ Planting The Seeds of Intention

With the power of auspicious beginnings, a New Year, a New Moon, we’ll plant the seeds of Intention for 2011 and beyond.  We’ll be taking the Work deeper this year, exploring the play between self-effort and Grace, how to recognize, be led by, and set free through Grace.  What is Grace?  How does it work?  Bring these questions and your Intentions, a smile, and an open mind...together we’ll dive deep!

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

Join Us.

These workshops are for all levels of experience and are nothing less than a tool for setting yourself free.  We’ll use a simple yet powerful breathing meditation as the linchpin for the work.  I call it ECSTATIC BREATHWORK.

Time:       7:30pm-9pm

There's A Freedom

There’s a freedom
Whisperin’ in my ear,
‘I’m here, I’m here.
Lay down your burdens
Sweet one,
‘Cause I’m here, I’m here.
Well your Daddy done
All right, and
Your Momma’s been up
Nearly every night
Hopin’, prayin’, wantin’
Your life to be so bright.
Yes, oh, yes
My dear,
They done all right
They done all right.
Let the past
Be past
And the night be night.
I say it’s time,
It’s time,
For you to
Come all the way Home
Tonight.’

Love Can Be Trusted, It Never Wanes ~ Ecstatic Breathwork Fri 12/17 8-9:30pm at The Hub




 

Friday, December 17th ~ 8:00-9:30pm ~ The Hub (West LA) 


Love Can Be Trusted, It Never Wanes ~

Love never changes.  Love never leaves.  Love never arrives.  Love is always right here, where You are.  Are you experiencing it now?  Now is the time.  If you’re not experiencing Love now, you’re likely to hold onto past moments that looked or felt like love, and this holding onto the past marks the body, the emotions, and the mind, pulling you out of present time.  Experiencing Love within, in the present moment, is a practice that erases these distractions that pull you out of time.  Experiencing Love within, in the present moment, tunes you to Grace, to unconditional support, from within.  It releases you from chasing happiness through people, circumstances, and things outside of you.  It preserves and strengthens your sense of Self.  It reveals countless blessings.  It is a practice, until the practicer fully dissolves into Love.     

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

The completion of another year is upon us.  How you end one thing determines the energy you bring into, and how you begin the next.  Will you choose to complete 2010 and begin 2011 consciously?  This Wednesday night, through the power of Awareness and the tool of Ecstatic Breathwork, we’ll take a deep bath in the waters of GRACE, cleansing, letting go, releasing the past, and opening every nook and cranny of the body, emotions, mind, and Spirit to the Awakening of Grace.
