Lose Your Mind for the Holidays!

Here we are in the fall of 2011, out here in the East coast the air is getting crisp. The leaves have started to change into their magnificent Autumn colors. What next? We know the drill: the weather gets cold, we bundle up, we stay indoors. Then the days get shorter, the holidays come upon us. Then the families gather and we see where we get all of our limiting tendencies. Then it’s the New Year, then it’s really cold and really dark. Eventually we emerge in March or April when the weather turns nice and feel human again.

May I suggest something different for this year?

May I suggest we all spend the winter being happy, joyous and free? Your mind is really the only block to being deeply good over the winter months- so let’s just lose our mind! Or… at least put it in the back seat and let the heart drive for awhile.  

I design the flow of my advanced training programs to start at the end of October and run into the summer. This gives us a solid 8-9 months of structured spiritual work to keep us focused on the highest and surrounded by other people who are uplifting their experience. Not everyone can dedicate the time and resources to do our Spiritual Leadership Training- so we have structured our public programs this year to provide TONS of support. And please never let money be a reason not to go! In many of our courses and retreats we offer discounts. Just ask.

Check this out:

Private Training Sessions: I offer 6 session packages of one-on-one training sessions custom fit for your needs. First I teach you how to meditate and really enjoy meditation, then I am here to coach you, be your sounding board, and guide you through your process of awakening. I can do them in person here in NYC or wherever you are over video conference or phone call. This training program is our “signature” offering.

Distance Learning Course: The Way of the Crow is a course with weekly emailed lessons, meditation instructions and webcast satsangs. The Way of the Crow is about doing deep spiritual work, staying awake and open hearted in the midst of our busy, crazy, lovely lives. Course begins on the 30th of October and finishes the end of February. Click here for more info.

Weekly Satsangs:

Every Monday and Wednesday night in NYC I host simple meditation and awakened living sessions where we check in about our process and meditate together.

Mondays 8:15 Abhaya Yoga Dumbo

Wednesdays 8pm Virayoga Soho

 Retreats

Our retreats (if  do say so myself) are the BEST! We make them all different and space them out so you can come to all of them and get big doses of support for your process. If you want to take my challenge, come to all of them this fall-winter. You will not believe what a great winter you will have.
