Welcome! Thank you so much for saying yes to this journey! To the call of your soul and this dive into the inner you. Together we will meet stillness and movement, silence and sound, from within the origins of who we are. During this weekend workshop, we will sit with practices that deepen your connection to your intuition, soul, and inner essence. Our ability to be present with what is truly alive within us allows us to engage in the world from our authentic selves. Practices will include sitting meditation, movement meditation, auric listening, intuitive constellations, and sound exploration. Through these practices, deeper understanding of the subconscious drivers of our patterns, actions, and experiences will naturally arise. For years, I've been sharing quotes with Into SoulWisdom that serve as guideposts on the journey. They will orient you to the energy of the weekend. Meditation: “In meditation, we discover our inherent restlessness.” Sometimes we get up and leave. Sometimes we sit there but our bodies wiggle and squirm and our minds go far away. This can be so uncomfortable that we feel it’s impossible to stay. Yet this feeling can teach us not just about ourselves but what it is to be human…we really don’t want to stay with the nakedness of our present experience. It goes against the grain to stay present. These are the times when only gentleness and a sense of humor can give us the strength to settle down…so whenever we wander off, we gently encourage ourselves to “stay” and settle down. Are we experiencing restlessness? Stay! Are fear and loathing out of control? Stay! Aching knees and throbbing back? Stay! What’s for lunch? Stay! I can’t stand this another minute! Stay!” ― Pema Chödrön, The Places That Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times Auric Listening: “If to change ourselves is to change our worlds, and the relation is reciprocal, then the project of history-making is never a distant one but always right here, on the borders of our sensing, thinking, feeling, moving bodies.” - J.K. Gibson-Graham This weekend is about being immersed in parts of ourselves that may not make logical sense or have a seat at the table in our everyday lives. It is about the formless and unseen. You are welcome if you are a novice or experienced in the world of soul! You can come to this weekend with the intention of gaining clarity or understanding on a certain topic, or simply with an open mind and heart. Ready to receive what your inner self is speaking to you. Location, Driving Directions, and details about Food and what to bring are available to you on the Program Information Page. Excited to dive inward with you! Love, Anayza
