Spiritual Connections  

Belonging Without Attachment
One of the most significant human needs is to belong.  We join and participate in organizations, our work, our families, and our community to experience belonging.  As young children, we learned from our neediness to use attachment as the experience of belonging.  We have learned to feel valued and respected by the things and people we have attached ourselves with.  Spiritual belonging is a conscious realization we are already connected to everything we experience and this realization allows us to move beyond the need for ego attachment.

Clarifying Your Purpose in Life 
Understanding our purpose in life provides inspiration, guidance, focus and direction in decision making.  Aligning our ego agendas with our higher purpose allows us to navigate the challenges in life with strength and courage.  This program explores ways to clarify your unique life purpose and to integrate purpose, intention and choice in your life.

Expressing Grace
Grace from our heart comes from the ability to think with our heart and feel with our head and requires focused consciousness to explore beyond the judgment of our own ego.  Grace flows beyond the spoken word and creates an energy field that invites others to simultaneously create the same experience.  We will learn the intention of grace and experience its profound power that comes from humbleness.

Forgiveness is Understanding & More
There are many aspects in the expression of forgiveness that come from the place of ego and spirit.  From the ego, forgiveness is acknowledging the illusion of error and expressing regrets as, “if I had to do it over, this is how I would do it…”  From the spirit’s aspect forgiveness is a compassionate understanding that life is about lessons from both the light and shadow sides and that often the shadow side creates our most significant insights.  You will learn to experience the paradox of ego and spirit and embrace forgiveness from both aspects.
 

Growing From Programmed Belief to Faith
Examine how belief systems are locked in at various levels of our ego and become the illusion of our nurturing. Explore the process that is used to project our being with trust and faith.

Intimacy With Higher Self
If being connected with our ego is all we know, then how do we connect to our spirit source?  In this presentation, listeners will learn to use intuition and imagination that will magnetize and draw the spirit connection into reality. Discover the ego beliefs that block this process and become a clear vessel for the expression of Higher Self without judgment.

Living in Gratitude
Thanksgiving is a day of expressing gratitude for the many aspects of our life.  Gratitude is an opportunity to embrace the light and shadow sides of our life as powerful lessons and insights.  This presentation teaches participants to hold silence and stillness and find the many levels of gratitude to share with ourselves and others during the holidays.

Spirit Seeks The Journey

Although our ego has been programmed to believe life is a destination, perhaps the deeper meaning in life is to understand why the spirit seeks the journey.  It is the journey that allows us to experience life and create the reflection of wisdom.  It is the journey that allows us to understand that life is a series of cycles that repeat until we gain self realization.  It is in the journey that the higher self teaches the lower self to reflect oneness in everything.  It is the journey that teaches there is no separation and everything expressed has purpose.

Spiritual Connections
This program explores the many dimensions of spirituality and the techniques for integrating our spiritual connections in our daily lives. Discover the joy that comes from mindful awareness and acknowledgement of our spiritual connections.  

The Light and Shadow Side of Suffering
If part of our sacred contract is to ascend towards enlightenment from living in the light and shadow side of suffering, then how can we honor suffering from a place of empathy rather than a place of sympathy?  The human ego controls from a place of shame and fear and creates suffering as a martyr.  In this class, we will learn the process of transmuting suffering and embrace the nature of suffering.   

The Source of True Power
There is power in shame and guilt, forgiveness, questions, humbleness, silence/stillness, wisdom, and trinity.  True power always has a paradox and hides itself in the illusions of power through control and deception. Explore the power of these seven truths and discover how to teach your ego to immerse itself in true power.
 

What Makes Anything Sacred
A sacred life comes from a conscious realization that everything expressed has purpose.  All of life is an expression that either fits or doesn’t fit in our value system.  This presentation provides the tools which allow us to expand our value system so that we can embrace the events in life in a more sacred way.
