We all experience loss and grief in life, but most of us are never taught what to do with it. Sometimes we are told to "move on" or "get over it," or sometimes we find it easier to push aside our pain. The truth is, the most effective way to reduce the pain of loss is to face it. This half-day workshop presented by BELOVED Compassion Network will guide you in safely facing your pain and cultivating self-compassion for yourself in this difficult time. Certified Compassion Practice facilitator Nancy Fowler will lead this workshop integrating the contemplative, meditative steps of the Compassion Practice as a way to navigate the grief process, care for yourself as you face your pain, and heal after loss.

We marvel in this information age how much human knowledge is readily accessible and how quickly we can communicate with each other which has greatly improved the quality of life. Yet we are also keenly aware of the dangers of misinformation and disinformation and how fast that false information can now travel. There is a mental dimension in the spiritual realms far more vast than any technology marvel on Earth. This dimension is called universal mind. Within universal mind is every thought humanity has ever had, is having now, and will ever have. These mass thoughts can be good, bad or indifferent. We are all swimming in the sea of universal mind, tapping into its collective ideas as we would sign onto the Internet. It is through universal mind that we can cooperate together in a common purpose propelling us to great good or to great evil. In this eye-opening workshop, discover how to tune out of the world’s mass hypnosis and into your own true self. Learn effective meditations with Divine Light to purify and steady your consciousness to be open to divine inspiration flowing from realms greater than universal mind, yet refuse to succumb to the bombardments of mass hypnotic thinking. Offered online and In-person Saturday, March 25 from 1 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. PT $35 / As we are a non-profit, donations welcomed. View this event on Facebook
