FROM PANIC TO PEACE
Finding Balance, Harmony and Wisdom in Times of Crisis
Have you ever found yourself in a full blown crisis?
Wednesday June 18th
Northern Westchester Hospital Center
Conference rooms C & D
6:30-9:30 PM
This is also our End of the Year Party – Join us for a great evening
You remember it well: your solar plexus was in knots. You could barely breathe, your body was tense, your tongue dry. Change was upon you, more than you felt like you could handle. The consequences
for not acting appeared to be serious, and yet you found yourself procrastinating when action was
required. Your mind was agitated, or went blank from fear. You wished your discomfort would just go
away….
What if crisis were the Universe’s way of FINALLY getting your attention – asking you to let go of
what no longer served, and make new, life-giving, useful choices…? What if the questions ‘Who am I?’
and ‘Why am I here?’ took on new meaning and importance…?
When a crisis is severe, it’s as if Life were pulling us up short and shaking us, dissolving everything
we believed to be true, telling us to slow down or even to stop – then plunging us into the unknown.
It’s as if Life were stripping away everything that was not Essential, nudging us – sometimes with
the force of a Tsunami – to empty ourselves of everything that we believed was true. All this, so that we could receive the promptings of Spirit, and become instruments of Divine Love, Power and Intelligence. From the ego’s point of view, this may feel like dying; from our Soul’s perspective it is more like entering a portal of Infinite Possibility.
The whole experience of loss and gain – and the suffering that so often goes with it – can act as a catalyst for spiritual growth – spurring us to go deeper and realize that we are already complete, that we already have what we need to address any situation. There is nothing to add on to make us whole……
Our work is to cleanse ourselves of the toxic memories and beliefs that both protect and limit us, and release the Imprisoned Splendor within, the Light and Love that we are. As it flows, it brings healing to ourselves and all around us. All the rest – the harmonious relationships, health, home, and abundance that we so often seek – arise from this.
In this experiential evening, we will be working with powerful meditative practices that bring balance and harmony. They are designed to ground you, quiet the mind, raise your vibration, and help you to experience the ‘Gap between thoughts’. This is the Zero Point Field, a state of Pure Awareness, Unconditional Love, and Unlimited Potential. It is revealed in Stillness, beyond thoughts and words, and brings deep peace, rest, and healing to mind, heart and body.
These Practices give access to new knowledge, universal energy, and an expansion of consciousness that arise from this fertile Void. They will help to bring you into the present moment, align you with Spirit, and dissolve your attachments to past and future. This is the realm of your Soul – of living from your Spiritual Center, in the eternal NOW.
As you experience the Reality of Oneness-consciousness, it becomes a new set point to return to, over and over. It will dramatically re-frame your experience, bring spaciousness, clarity, and wisdom to your responses, and true contentment, no matter what the changing conditions or circumstances.
Come see for your Self!
"For my entire life, I have felt a deep yearning to experience God, Spirit, The Tao, The Void – it goes by so many names, and none can really describe it. I have yearned to find the Truth, and heal the profound ignorance, sense of separation, and suffering that I felt within and around me. Over the years, I have sustained a single-minded monk-like focus, study and practice of Spiritual Principles. I am happy to share the fruits of over forty years of inner work, and walk with you on your journey" — Rory
