CULTIVATE COMPASSIONATE PRESENCE DESPITE FEAR & AWKWARDNESS Karen Kissel Wegela

Course 3607-512/Tuition $815 ($735 Members) SS

When going through a difficult time, most of us long for a sense of connection, for being with someone who really cares what we are going through and can stay present with us.

compassionate impulses and our ability to be present in this experiential workshop.

We engage in sitting and walking meditations, listen and share in large, small, and dyadic groupings, and give ourselves the time and space to learn about and go deeper into these Buddhist traditions and practices.

RADICAL SELF-LOVE

Ali Smith, Atman Smith, and Andres Gonzalez Course 3702-695/Tuition $360 ($325 Members)

We are born with the capacity for radical unconditional love, but with life experiences we often forget this and become jaded. This retreat reminds us that we are incarnated to love radically and unconditionally.

Choosing love is a powerful act and requires us to be vulnerable and open, which isn’t easy for many of us to do.

Join Ali Smith, Atman Smith, and Andres Gonzalez for an immersive weekend of meditation practices, mantras, mudras, breathwork, boundary setting, as well as energetic and thought practices to learn to: • Go beyond the limiting beliefs we impose on ourselves • Recognize negative self-talk and quiet our inner critic • Increase our ability to radically and unconditionally love ourselves and those we interact with • Tap into the light of our universal Self and let that love shine

Mystics, monks, and inspiring luminaries such as Rumi, Saint Teresa, Gurdjieff, Khalil Gibran, and Thomas Merton have described extraordinary spiritual states.

Spiritual intelligence, or SQ, is the ability to enter these states of oneness with “the all that is.” SQ connects us with the universal consciousness beyond our limited human minds. It is associated with extraordinary compassion, happiness, gratitude, and love.

Join integrative health-care researcher Dawson Church, author of Mind to Matter, in this weekend retreat as he explains what SQ is, how to develop it, and the function of the four specific brain circuits active in mystics of all traditions.

New research, he says, shows that the ability to reach these states is hardwired

The Gabriel Method™ is a holistic, mindbody approach to weight loss that focuses on addressing and eliminating the root causes of obesity.

Stress, poor digestion, toxins, dysfunctional JON GABRIEL beliefs, and chronic yo-yo dieting can cause chemical reactions in the body. By systematically addressing specific triggers, you can reverse this chemistry and regain the ability to lose weight.

When you address the real issues of weight gain, then weight loss is no longer a struggle. You’re simply less hungry, you crave healthier foods, your metabolism speeds up, and you become efficient at burning fat.

Through lectures, discussions, and experiential exercises, we dive deep into the Gabriel Method principles and examine each of the core triggers that cause weight gain, and help you create a balanced and sustainable approach to weight loss that focuses on nourishing and healing your body, mind, and soul.

Several guest speakers join us for sessions throughout the week.

Jon Gabriel is the author of The Gabriel Method, which is based on his experience becoming obese and losing more than 200 pounds. thegabrielmethod.com

Being Human Takes Practice A Meditation Retreat for Open-Minded Explorers & Fidgety Skeptics Jeff Warren

Course 3902-380/Tuition $395 ($355 Members) SS

Explore what meditation teaches us about being human. It teaches us about resistance and over-thinking, about humor and mercy, about healing stuck emotions and expanding stuck views. All this and more happens when we sit and get quiet. It also happens when we sit and don’t get quiet. So, all neurotic brains welcome!

The main teacher is meditation itself, which has a way of organizing the nervous system all on its own. We also learn from other people's reports of their experiences, their insights and challenges, through sharing and discussion.

Every kind of experience can happen on the cushion—our internal processes are as distinct as our fingerprints. The goal is for everyone to return home with a clear understanding of why they meditate, and a clear feeling for their own strange and beautiful practice.

The diverse members of the Mindfulness in Education Network Board invite you to a transformational weekend of mindful awareness and contemplation.

Through experiential activities and teaching instruction, we examine our biases, deepen our relationships, and transform our teaching. We explore different modalities for interrogating and examining race, power, privilege, and difference, and the skills to correlate that to the classroom. We: • Learn playful strategies to engage in mindful self-awareness • Develop skills for deep listening and building empathy • Begin to recognize our capacity for discomfort so that we can hold space for ourselves, our students, and our communities • Gain a foundational understanding of the importance of embodying and adopting these practices in our work for peace, social justice, and transformation

Empower the healer within as you learn to bring the healing experience out into the world in this rare 9-day, 5-level training program with author, teacher, and breathwork healer David Elliott.

In Level 1, practice the 2-stage pranayama breathwork meditation, the foundational tool of David’s healing work. Learn why the breath is used in clearing your mind and body of stuck energy.

From Lucid Dreaming to Lucid Living Toni Porrello Course 4005-607/Tuition $470 ($425 Members)

Lucid dreaming is a scientifically 80 proven state of dreaming during which we are conscious that we are dreaming. During this state we are able to practice acting out our dream goals and make connections to our inner selves—spiritually, emotionally, physiologically, and psychologically—and explore parts of ourselves we never imagined possible.

Through discussions, lectures, interactive activities, and guided meditation, you learn about boosting dream recall, using guided meditation and self-hypnosis, selfinterpreting dreams, and improving sleep hygiene. You explore and practice daytime and nighttime lucid dreaming techniques to increase awareness of self, others, and the world around us.

Discover how bringing your conscious mind to your dreams can significantly impact your waking reality. Return home with skills and knowledge along with a new perspective to apply in daily life.

As you let go of societal masks and tap into your inner wisdom, you delve into profound questions: What is my personal medicine? What unique gifts do I offer? How can I integrate mine and others' experiences into my life journey?

During this retreat, you: • Move to inspiring soundscapes • Journey into yourself through the synergy of movement and writing • Express your voice • Relax and rejuvenate with yoga nidra and sound healing

Together, we forge a path connecting our inner landscapes with community care and belonging within the natural world.

Elements of this program include Feldenkrais® somatics, applications from interpersonal neurobiology and Somatic Experiencing®, creative mark-making on paper, forest bathing, and more.

Experience five days of deep restoration, relaxation, and reflection in a retreat with John Vosler that draws on various lineages of yoga nidra, including iRest and the Integrative Amrit Method.

Yoga nidra uses the biological process of sleep to systematically release stored physical, emotional, and mental tensions. Through this restorative process, we can begin to release unconscious programming that keeps us locked in the past. All we have to do is show up, lie down, and let go.

This week, we move our bodies before we take a resting position, where we clear our minds, allow our emotions to be experienced, and create intentions to live from a new perspective.

EMPOWERMENT THROUGH POSTURE Restore Natural Poise & Confidence Esther Gokhale Course 4102-438/Tuition $435 ($390 Members)

Having arrived on the planet without a user’s manual, we depend on our culture to help us develop healthy movement and posture habits. In modern times, this cultural support has largely eroded and even become counter-productive.

Common posture cues such as “chin up, chest out,” and “sit up straight” undermine rather than support our structural integrity.

Esther Gokhale created the Gokhale Method®, a breakthrough in back pain relief, after experiencing crippling back pain during her first pregnancy and unsuccessful back surgery. Using posture as a springboard, Gokhale guides you to examine the connection between physical well-being and emotional empowerment.

Focusing on everyday movements used for sitting, sleeping, standing, walking, and bending, you gain a clear understanding of how to improve your individual posture and restore your natural, healthy, and confident body and mind.

MASTER LEVEL SOUND MEDICINE CERTIFICATE TRAINING Exploring the True Heart of Sound Healing Rich Goodhart Course 4205-549/Tuition $445 ($400 Members) PT

The art and practice of sound healing is surging in popularity. Much of this interest centers on gongs, bowls, and tuning RICH GOODHART forks. Training opportunities are popping up everywhere. But there are no standards, and too often, little apparent understanding of the deeper essence and commitment of this work.

Yes, there's a deeper essence beyond easy technique—a true and inspired heart to sound medicine practice—beyond the many magical sound tools available to us.

This retreat is a master level exploration into the heart of the healing power of sound. Through group and personal practices, in complement with Rich Goodhart’s multidimensional sound medicine immersions, we awaken and engage our deeper sonic perceptions and presence. The expansions received through this experience inform all aspects of one's sound and energy practices.

This workshop is open to all experience levels, including beginners.

Bring a drum and shaker if you have them.

Rich Goodhart is an internationally respected world musician, gifted master level shamanic sound healing artist, and Shift Network Sound Summit presenter. richgoodhart.com PT Professional Training©

TIBETAN YOGA

Magical Movements (Trul Khor) of Body, Breath & Mind Alejandro Chaoul Course 4205-471/Tuition $490 ($440 Members)

The distinctive Tibetan practice of yoga known as Trul Khor, or magical movement, incorporates breath retention, awareness, and physical movements. Trul Khor is “a wonderful support for all spiritual practitioners, not just for those with an interest in physical yogas,” says Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche.

During this workshop, we focus on the pith magical movements from the Zhang Zhung Nyen Gyu (Oral Transmission of Zhang Zhung). By harmonizing the winds (lung, prana, or chi) and guiding their flow through physical and energetic dimensions, Trul Khor can clear long-held blocks in the practitioner’s body, energy, and mind, supporting the spontaneous arising of awareness during formal meditation and in everyday life.

Beginning and experienced students of yoga are welcome.

Alejandro Chaoul, PhD, is the Huffington Foundation Endowed Director of the Mind Body Spirit Institute at the Jung Center of Houston. He is author of Tibetan Yoga for Health and Well-Being and other books. alechaoul.com ALEJANDRO CHAOUL

Join spiritual teacher David Elliott and a healing circle of men for a deep dive into what it means to be a man on the way to being a human. David’s healing breathwork meditation helps you open your heart and move energy that no longer serves you.

DAVID ELLIOTT We sit in an open circle for partner work, digging into areas where you might be feeling stuck, whether that be physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually.

We look at self-discovery questions such as: • Are you living or waiting to live?

• Are you holding any sexual abuse energy in your body, and is it affecting your relationships?

• Are there any amends you need to complete?

88 • How was/is your relationship with your father?

• What is your understanding of self-love?

You learn how to look at yourself and your situation as being normal, and you gain insights on how to love yourself more.
